| immunotoxicity activity from various organic solvents extract of allium genus from south korea against aedes aegypti l. | species of the allium genus, used in functional foods for the treatment of improving gastritis and heart failures, were collected and petroleum ether, chloroform, and ethyl acetate extracts were obtained by sonication. the allium thumbergii chloroform extracts have a significant toxic effect against early fourth-stage larvae of aedes aegypti l. with an lc(50) value of 2.4 μg/ml and an lc(90) value of 6.3 μg/ml. the allium victorialis var. platyphyllum petroleum ether extracts have a significant ... | 2010 | 21158696 |
| composition and immunotoxicity activity of major essential oils from stems of allium victorialis l. var. platyphyllum makino against aedes aegypti l. | the stems of allium victorialis l. var. platyphyllum were extracted and the major essential oil composition and immunotoxicity effects were studied. the analyses were conducted by gas chromatography and mass spectroscopy (gc-ms), which revealed the essential oils of a. victorialis l. var. platyphyllum stems. the a. victorialis l. var. platyphyllum essential oil yield was 1.45%, and gc/ms analysis revealed that its major constituents were allyl methyl disulfide (24.36%), dimethyl trisulfide (11.7 ... | 2011 | 21162628 |
| phylogeny of allium l. subgenus anguinum (g. don. ex w.d.j. koch) n. friesen (amaryllidaceae). | the disjunct distribution of the subgenus anguinum of the genus allium makes it a good candidate to test models of northern hemisphere biogeography. here we conduct phylogenetic analysis with the nuclear marker its and three different chloroplast markers (rps16 intron, rbcl-atpb spacer, rpl32-trnl spacer). divergence time estimations (beast) relying on published its substitution rates and ancestral range reconstructions were calculated to elucidate the biogeographical history of the subgenus. ad ... | 2016 | 26639102 |
| chemopreventive and anticancer activities of allium victorialis var. platyphyllum extracts. | allium victorialis var. platyphyllum is an edible perennial herb and has been used as a vegetable or as a korean traditional medicine. allium species have received much attention owing to their diverse pharmacological properties, including antioxidative, anti-inflammatory, and anticancer activities. however, a. victorialis var. platyphyllum needs more study. | 2014 | 25337587 |
