Yildirim, Nuran Cikcikoglu; Paksoy, Mehmet Yavuz; Yildirim, Numan; Yuce, Ebru
This study was aimed at screening the total antioxidant status (TAS) of genus Ricotta L. and some Grammosciadium L. from Turkey in order to find new potential sources of natural antioxidants. The TAS level of a total of 12 plant extracts from non-edible plant materials was examined. According to the results, hexanic extract of R. sinuata plant exhibited the lowest antioxidant status (2.41 mmol Trolox equivalent/l). The highest TAS level was determined in ethanolic extract of the G. daucoides (4.36 mmol Trolox equivalent/l). As a result, due to its antioxidative properties, ethanolic extract of G. daucoides can be utilized as a natural source of antioxidants.

The chemical composition of hydro distilled essential oil from Origanum acutidens (Hand. and Mazz.) Ietswaart was collected from Tunceli (Turkey) were analyzed by GC and GC-MS. Essential oil and methanol extract of Origanum acutidens were tested against Yersinia ruckeri (ATCC 29473), Aeromonas hydrophila (ATCC 607920), Lactococcus garviae (ATCC 43921) Staphylococcus aureus (ATCC 29213) fish pathogenic bacterial strains. The analysis of the essential oil of Origanum acutidens showed the presence of 6 components accounting for 93.8 % of the total amount. Calvacrol (61.8 %), p-cymene (15.5 %) and thymol (12.7 %) that possessed antimicrobial activity were found as the major component. The final concentrations of the methanol extract and the essential oil were determined by using disk diffusion assay. Mean inhibition zones of bacterial strains for Origanum acutidens essential oil varied from 28.0 +/- 1.2 and 36.7 +/- 0.7 mm. The inhibition zones of methanol extract (10 mu L and 20 mu L) of Origanum acutidens against bacterial strains were in the range 8.7 +/- 0.7 - 11.0 +/- 0.6 mm and 12.7 +/- 0.67 - 22.7 +/- 1.3 mm, respectively. Our results suggest that both the methanol extract and the essential oil of Origanum acutidens may be valuable as potential antibacterial agents against the major fish pathogens.

Yildirim, Nuran Cikcikoglu; Paksoy, Mehmet Yavuz; Yuce, Ebru; Yildirim, Numan
Total antioxidant status and antifungal activities of three endemic plants from the Munzur Valley in Tunceli, Turkey; Bellevalia gracilis Feinbrun, Muscari aucheri (Boiss.) Baker ve Tulipa armena Boiss. var. lycica (Baker) Marais were evaluated for the first time. Aqueous, hexanic, methanolic and ethanolic extracts were obtained from leaves and bulbs of B. gracilis, M. aucheri ve T. armena var. lycica. Total antioxidant status was determined by using TAS assay kit (Rel assay diagnostics). Antifungal assays were performed according to amended agar method against white rot fungus Coriolus versicolor. Among the plants tested, the leaves of B. gracilis exhibited highest total antioxidant status among all samples evaluated in this study. According to the results, M. aucheri plant exhibited the lowest antioxidant status. The results of this study showed that the aqueous leaf extract of T. armena var. lycica at a concentration 2.5% (w/v) suppressed significantly the radial growth of C. versicolor by 68.00%. It can be concluded that the plant species assayed possess antifungal and antioxidant properties.

Yuce, Ebru; Bagci, Eyup
In this study, essential oil compositions of two Hypericum L. taxa (Hypericum triquetrifolium Turra. and Hypericum aviculariifolium Jaub. et Spach subsp. depilatum var. depilatum (Freyn et Bornm.) Robson) naturally grown in Turkey were determined using gas chromatography and gas chromatography-mass spectrometry systems. The essential oils were obtained by hydrodistillation from the aerial parts of plants. A total of 45 compounds were identified in the essential oils of H. triquetrifolium; 1-hexanal (18.8%), 3-methylnonane (12.5%) and alpha-pinene (12.3%). In this study, 41 components were identified in H. aviculariifolium subsp. depilatum var. depilatum oil; alpha-pinene (52.1%), germacrene D (8.5%) and beta-pinene (3.6%) were the predominant constituents. The essential oil analysis showed that monoterpene concentrations were higher than that of the sesquiterpenes in both oils. The results were discussed in the meaning of the usefulness of these plants and their chemicals as natural products and potential usage in chemotaxonomy.

Bagci, Eyup; Yuce, Ebru
The essential oils from the aerial parts of two varieties (var. capitatum and var. luteum Robson) of Hypericum capitatum (Sect. Drosanthe) grown in Turkey were analyzed by GC and GC-MS. Forty-eight compounds were identified in the essential oils of var. capitatum with alpha-pinene (20.3 %), caryophyllene oxide (11.8 %), hexadecanoic acid (8.9 %), beta-caryophyllene (6.5 %) and undecane (3.8 %) as main constituents. Thirty-eight components were identified in the oil of var. luteum with camphor (15.3 %), germacrene D (10.5 %), beta-myrcene (7.4 %), caryophyllene oxide (6.5 %) and beta-cububene (6.3 %), as the abundant components. More quantitative and qualitative differences were determined between two varieties of H. capitatum essential oils. The results were discussed in means of renewable resources and chemotaxonomy.
