“…The volatile oil of the D. syrticus herb collected during January revealed the presence of different classes of terpene and non terpene compounds, among which γ-terpinene, α-terpineol, α-humulene, α-bisabolol, neophytadiene, phytol, heptacosane, nonacosane, n-hexadecanoic acid, 9,12,15-octadecatrienoic acid methyl ester and acetyl-5-methyl-furan were found to be the main compounds, and the data obtained from the GLC analysis of the unsaponifiable fraction showed that, it contains a series of hydrocarbons (80.24%), sterols, (2.28% cholesterol, campasterol, stigmasterol, and β-sitosterol) and triterpenes (0.96% α-amyrine), while the GLC of fatty acid methyl esters revealed the presence of saturated fatty acids (35%) and unsaturated fatty acids (65%), among which plasmatic and linolenic acid are the main compounds, respectively (Abd Alla et al, 2013 andMansour et al, 2004).…”

n this study, GC/MS of volatile oils and lipid constituents were explored for four Apiaceae family members: Deverra tortuosa (Desf.) DC., Daucus syrticus L., Anethum graveolens L. and Petroselinum crispum (Mill.). The potential of using the ethanolic extracts of these plants in the synthesis of green silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) was investigated. Additionally, the effect of these synthesized nanoparticles on some strains of bacteria and fungi was studied. About the lipoidal matter, the data show that, D. tortuosa and D. syrticus had 32 and 13 compounds, respectively, while A. graveolens and P. crispum had 24 ,19 compounds, respectively. The Analysis of volatile oils by GC/MS allowed the identification of 31 compounds in D. tortuosa and D. syrticus had 23 compounds, while A. graveolens had 18 compounds and P. crispum had 11 compounds. The data showed that, the size of AgNPs differed according to the plant used in their synthesis as follows: 34.0, 42.7, 37.3, and 41.0 nm for D. tortuosa, D. syrticus, A. graveolens and P. crispum, respectively. It was observed that, AgNPs from P. crispum had the highest effect against Bacillus subtilis (22 mm), while the best activity against Escherichia coli was 20 mm from AgNPs of D. tortuosa ethanolic extract. AgNPs of A. graveolens ethanolic extract had the best effect against Aspergillus versicolor with inhibition zone of 40 mm, followed by D. syrticus (38 mm).

“…Additionally, they play a role in enhancing vision, inducing apoptosis, providing neuroprotection, and influencing blood vessels and platelets, which may potentially reduce the risk of coronary heart disease [ 15 ]. Genus Daucus (Apiaceae) contains about 60 species distributed mainly in Africa, West Asia, and Europe, and a few species were found in Australia and North America [ 16 , 17 ]. It is represented in Libya by nine species, including D. durieua , D. muricatus , D. carota , D. guttatus , D. capillifolius , D. jordanicus , D. littorals , D. syrticus and D. sahariensis [ 18 ]…”

Daucus capillifolius Gilli is a rare annual wild herb grown in Libya. It belongs to the Apiaceae family, which is one of the largest flowering plant families. Plants of this family are outstanding sources of various secondary metabolites with various biological activities. A UPLC-ESI-MS/MS analysis of different extracts of in vivo and in vitro tissues of Daucus capillifolius together with the fruit extract of the cultivated plant in both ionization modes was carried out for the first time in the current study. Our results reveal the tentative identification of eighty-seven compounds in the tested extracts, including thirty-two phenolic acids and their derivatives; thirty-seven flavonoid glycosides and aglycones of apigenin, luteolin, diosmetin, myricetin and quercetin, containing glucose, rhamnose, pentose and/or glucuronic acid molecules; seven anthocyanins; six tannins; three acetylenic compounds; and three nitrogenous compounds. The tentative identification of the above compounds was based on the comparison of their retention times and ESI-MS/MS fragmentation patterns with those previously reported in the literature. For this Apiaceae plant, our results confirm the presence of a wide array of secondary metabolites with reported biological activities. This study is among the first ones to shed light on the phytoconstituents of this rare plant.
