Disease relevance of Myrtus

The effect of extracts from leaves of Myrtus communis on the SOS reponse induced by Aflatoxin B1 (AFB1) and Nifuroxazide was investigated in a bacterial assay system, i.e. the SOS chromotest with Escherichia coli PQ37 [1].

High impact information on Myrtus

Evaluation of antioxidant effect of different extracts of Myrtus communis L [2].
The content in triglycerides of 1 ml of serum can be decreased by more than seventy per cent by treatment with 50 mg of lyophilized glutaraldehyde-treated erythrocytes saturated with Myrtus communis L. phytohemagglutinins [3].
Myrtus communis L. phytohemagglutinins as a clarifying agent for lipemic sera [3].
Anti-hyperglycaemic effect of an extract of Myrtus communis in streptozotocin-induced diabetes in mice [4].
Myrtus extract had no effect on the blood glucose level of normal mice [4].
