Publication Metadata only Investigation of antioxidant and antibicrobial activities of muscari armeniacum(2023-05-04) RAYAMAN, ERKAN; YILMAZ, BEYZA NUR; EMRE, GİZEM; TAŞKIN, TURGUT; Avcı E., Rayaman E., Yılmaz B. N., Emre G., Taşkın T.Publication Open Access Investigation on biological activities of Melissa officinalis subsp. altissima(2022-05-23) RAYAMAN, ERKAN; ŞENKARDEŞ, İSMAİL; TAŞKIN, TURGUT; Koç G., Rayaman E., Özdatlı Kurtuluş Ş., Ermanoğlu M., Yılmaz B. N. , Şenkardeş İ., Taşkın T.The genus Melissa is used as antibacterial, sedative, digestive aid, carminative, diaphoretic and bile secretion enhancer. It is included in the composition of the preparations used during nervous digestive system disorders, psychosomatic heart disorders and migraine. The flowering branches and leaves of Melissa officinalis L. subsp. altissima. are used as carminative, sedative and its antipyretic effects. It is also used in vascular occlusion, stomach aches, heart ailments, kidney inflammation, cholesterol, blood pressure, and diabetes. According to our knowledge there are not enough studies on these species grown in Turkey. The aim of this study is to examine the antioxidant, cytotoxic, anticholinesterase, anti-urease and antimicrobial activities of plant’ various extracts obtained by using the sequential maceration method. In the determination of antimicrobial activity well diffusion method on 6 gram negative, 4 gram positive and 3 yeast strains was used. DPPH, CUPRAC and FRAP techniques were used to examine the antioxidant properties of plant\" extracts. The extracts\" anticholinesterase, cytotoxic and anti-urease activity were determined using the Ellman, MTT and Indophenol techniques, respectively. In addition, the phenolic contents of the extracts were determined by FCR method. It was found that petroleum ether extract of the plant was effective against Enterecoccus faecalis and Staphylococcus aureus strains and ethyl acetate extract were effective against Staphylococcus aureus strains. The methanol extract of the plant exhibited the highest antioxidant activity when compared to other extracts. It was determined that the petroleum ether extract of Melissa officinalis L. subsp. altissima has stronger acetylcholinesterase and urease enzyme inhibition potential than its other extracts. Furthermore, in this study the ethyl acetate extract of the plant was found to have high cytotoxic activity.Publication Open Access The Biological Activities of Endemic Ballota pseudodictamnus subsp. lycia.(2022-05-23) RAYAMAN, ERKAN; TAŞKIN, TURGUT; Akduman B., Rayaman E., Yılmaz B., Ermanoğlu M., Gürdal B., Taşkın T.The genus Ballota L. (Lamiaceae) includes species known as boz ot, bal otu, nemnem otu and have medicinal uses among the people. Additionally, it known to be used by the public in the treatment of cough, asthma, headache, nausea, hemorrhoids, wounds and burns. Ballota taxa have various phytochemical classes such as essential oils, iridoids, saponins, terpenoids, flavonoids, phenolic acids, tannins, and organic acids. Ballota pseudodictamnus subsp. lycia is one of the endemic species growing in southwestern Turkey. As a result of our research on the literature a limited number of studies have been found on the biological activities of this species. The aim of this study is to examine the antioxidant, antimicrobial, anticholinesterase and anti-urease activities of different extracts (petroleum ether, chloroform and methanol) obtained from the aerial part of B. pseudodictamnus subsp. lycia. DPPH, CUPRAC, and FRAP techniques were used to examine the antioxidant properties of plant\" extracts. The extracts\" anti-urease, anticholinesterase and antimicrobial activity were determined using the Indophenol, Ellman and agar well diffusion method techniques, respectively. While the petroleum ether extract obtained from plant, was found to be effective against S. aureus, S.epidermidis and E. faecalis strains; its chloroform extract was effective against S.aureus and S.epidermidis strains and its methanol extract was found to be effective against Acinetobacter baumannii strains. It was found that the plant’ methanol extract showed the highest antioxidant activity when compared to the other extracts.Publication Metadata only Investigation of biological activities of Paranchia kurdica subsp. kurdica var. kurdica and analysis of major phytochemicals by HPLC-DAD(2021-11-24) TAŞKIN, TURGUT; RAYAMAN, ERKAN; DOĞAN, AHMET; Ermanoğlu M., Taşkın D., Taşkın T., Rayaman E., Doğan A.Publication Open Access Chemical Composition and In Vitro Biological Activity of Two Thymus L. Varieties Growing in Turkey(2024-01-01) TAŞKIN, TURGUT; RAYAMAN, ERKAN; YILMAZ, BEYZA NUR; TAŞKIN T., Öksüz M., Bulkurcuoğlu B., Ercelen S., RAYAMAN E., Ermanoğlu M., YILMAZ B. N., Taşkın D., Şahin T., Kılıç Ö.Thymus kotschyanus var. kotschyanus (TKK) and T. kotschyanus var. glabrescens (TKG) varieties were used as both spice and medicine by the people in Turkey. It was determined that plants’ methanol extracts had the strongest antioxidant, anticholinesterase, antiurease activity and high total phenolic contents. The ethyl acetate and methanol extracts were found to have strong antimicrobial activity. Methanol extracts showed low hemolytic effect against human erythrocytes. It was determined that TKG extract showed higher anti-proliferative effect compared to TKK extract. Both plants extract significantly decreased reactive oxygen species (ROS) generation in cancer cells. It was determined that amounts of chlorogenic and rosmarinic acid compounds were similar in both plants, but apigenin 7-O-neohesperidoside compound was found in higher amounts in TKK. The findings obtained in this study suggest that methanol and ethyl acetate extracts obtained from these two species can be used as antioxidant, anticholinesterase, antimicrobial and antiurease agents. The findings support the traditional use of these species.
