(
Springer Verlag
, 2020 , Article)
A newly marine Halomonas pacifica strain Cnaph3 was isolated, as a naphthalene degrader and biosurfactant producer, from contaminated seawater collected in Ataya's fishing harbor, located in Kerkennah Islands, Tunisia. ...
Hepatoprotective Effect of Oleuropein-Rich Extract from Olive Leaves against Cadmium-Induced Toxicity in Mice
(
Hindawi
, 2020 , Article)
Cadmium (Cd) is a harmful pollutant which mainly affects the liver and kidney. In this work, we investigated the hepatoprotective effects of olive leaf extract based on oleuropein against hepatic cadmium toxicity in mice. ...
Pistacia lentiscus by-product as a promising source of phenolic compounds and carotenoids: Purification, biological potential and binding properties
(
Elsevier
, 2021 , Article)
The hydro-distilled leaves of Pistacia lentiscus are considered as an agricultural residue and of no commercial value yet. In this study, chromatographic purification of a methanolic fraction of P. lentiscus L. (lentisk) ...

(
Elsevier
, 2022 , Article)
The main objective of this work was to review literature on compounds extracted from olive tree leaves, such as simple phenols (hydroxytyrosol) and flavonoids (Apigenin, apigenin-7-O-glucoside, luteolin.) and their diverse ...
Wound healing potential of quercetin-3-O-rhamnoside and myricetin-3-O-rhamnoside isolated from Pistacia lentiscus distilled leaves in rats model
(
Elsevier
, 2022 , Article)
The development of bioproducts able to accelerate wound healing is an important topic in biomedicine. In the current study, Pistacia lentiscus distilled leaves (PDL) extract and its two isolated glycosylated flavonoids, ...
