Polyphenolic compounds from the leaves of Juniperus oxycedrus L. subsp. macrocarpa (Sm.) Ball

The neuroprotective potential of phenolic-enriched fractions from four Juniperus species found in Portugal

“…This work showed that the main polyphenolic compounds were common among the different species and some have been identified previously in various studies for different Juniperus sp. (Dzharullaeva, 2009;Lesjak et al, 2011;Lim et al, 2002;Martz et al, 2009;Miceli et al, 2009;Nakanishi et al, 2004;Sakar & Friedrich, 1984;Stassi et al, 1998). The main differences noted between the four species under study were in the relative amounts of certain compounds.…”

“…Until now the identifications of Juniperus sp. compounds are spread across different reports, in which different species were used and for each only a few number of compounds were identified (Dzharullaeva, 2009;Iida et al, 2007Iida et al, , 2010Lesjak et al, 2011;Lim et al, 2002;Martz et al, 2009;Miceli et al, 2009;Nakanishi et al, 2004;Sakar & Friedrich, 1984;Stassi, Verykokidou, Loukis, & Harvala, 1998).…”

Chemical Studies of Leaf Essential Oils of Three Species ofJuniperusFrom Tensift Al Haouz-Marrakech Region (Morocco)

“…The qualitative composition of leaf oil of J. oxycedrus from Amassine-Ourika (Atlas Mountains, Marrakech) differed from the composition of terpenoids found in the other leaf oils of J. oxycedrus from Spain (16)(17)(18)(19). However, the Moroccan population was dominated by 13-epi-manoyl oxide, but a-pinene was the main compound of the Spanish population (19).…”

Evaluation of fruit extracts of six TurkishJuniperusspecies for their antioxidant, anticholinesterase and antimicrobial activities

“…Although some Juniperus species growing in Anatolia have been previously studied for their volatile12 and non‐volatile secondary metabolites,7 only a few studies have investigated their more polar compounds, such as lignans, flavonoids and other phenolics 12. The literature survey indicates that Juniperus species are rich in volatile constituents,13 as well as in tannins, flavonoids,14 lignans,15 phenylpropanoids,16 abietane17 pimarane and labdane diterpenes 7…”
