Description
Summary:The genus L. belongs to the Lamiaceae family including several known species rich in natural compounds that are extensively used in pharmaceutical, food, and cosmetic industries. populations contain a broad diversity of flavonoids and phenolic acids. The present study aimed to explore biological and pharmacological effects including antimicrobial and antioxidant activities of nineteen populations ( ) grown in Iran for the first time. High content of rosmarinic acid (RA) in (Gazan) (5.65 ± 0.33 mg/g DW) caused high antimicrobial activity against two bacteria ( , ) and the fungus , while methanolic extract of (Taleghan) showed high antioxidant activity due to high content of salvianolic acid A (SAA) and quercetin (0.53 ± 0.04 and 0.49 ± 0.12 mg/g DW, respectively). Altogether these results can be considered for further commercial exploitations to meet the demands of the food and pharmaceutical industries.[Formula: see text].
