Antimicrobial activities of various species and their derivatives have been reported by many works.

The purpose of this study was to investigate, by use of the agar well diffusion method, the ability of cold-water and hot-water extracts of Petroselinum crispum leaves to inhibit bacteria isolated from patients with burns infections.

Parsley [Petroselinum crispum (Mill.) Fuss] is regarded as an aromatic, culinary, and medicinal plant and is used in the cosmetic, food, and pharmaceutical industries.

This study was aimed to evaluate antioxidant response of parsley cells to 21 ppm iron and static magnetic field (SMF; 30 mT).

Plant extracts are considered nowadays as potential bioactive agents that can interfere and alter different cellular processes.

The present work describes the mechanisms involved in the muscle relaxant effect of ethanol:water (40:60, 60:40 and 80:20) aerial parts extracts of Pimpinella anisum. Three hidroalcoholic extracts in which the proportion of ethanol was 40% (HA40%), 60% (HA60%) or 80% (HA80%) were tested for activity in the rat anococcygeus smooth muscle. The three extracts (50 g/mL) inhibited acetylcholine-induced contraction.

Apigenin is a flavone found in vegetables, seasonings and oranges, and it possesses antioxidant activity in vitro. Potent biological effects of this flavonoid have been described in vitro and in vivo.

Increased serum uric acid is known to be a major risk related to the development of several oxidative stress diseases. The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of parsley, quercetin and kaempferol on serum uric acid levels, liver xanthine oxidoreductase activity and two non-invasive biomarkers of oxidative stress (total antioxidant capacity and malondialdehyde concentration) in normal and oxonate-induced hyperuricemic rats.

Parsley is used by diabetics in Turkey to reduce blood glucose.

This study investigated both morphologically and biochemically whether parsley (Petroselinum crispum), which is used as a folk remedy to decrease blood glucose, has any antidiabetic effect on pancreatic B cells of rats.

Parsley (Petroselinum crispum) is one of the medicinal herbs used by diabetics in Turkey.

Diabetes mellitus is a major endocrine disorder, affecting nearly 10% of the population all over the world. In spite of the introduction of hypoglycemic agents, diabetes and the related complications continue to be a major medical problem.

Parsley (Petroselinum crispum) is one of the medicinal herbs used by diabetics in Turkey. The aim of this study is to investigate the effects of parsley (2 g/kg) and glibornuride (5 mg/kg) on the liver tissue of streptozotocin-induced diabetic rats. Swiss albino rats were divided into six groups: control; control + parsley; control + glibornuride; diabetic; diabetic + parsley; diabetic + glibornuride.

The auricular edema is achieved by applying 12-0- Tetradecanoil Forbol-13 Acetate (TPA), one of the components responsible for the irritating action of croton oil, into the auditory pavilion of the mouse.

Antioxidant capacities of the essential oil extracted from parsley (Petroselinum crispum) were evaluated by three different in vitro assays: b-carotene bleaching assay, DPPH free radical scavenging assay and Fe2+-metal chelating assay. Results showed that the parsley oil (PO) possessed a certain degree of antioxidant activities in terms of b-carotene bleaching capacity and free radical scavenging activity, but its metal chelating capacity was negligible.

Free radicals cause the oxidation of biomolecules (e.g., protein, amino acids, lipid and DNA) which leads to cell injury and death.

In this study we evaluated the antibacterial activity of the crude hydroalcoholic extracts, fractions, and compounds of two plant species, namely Rosmarinus officinalis and Petroselinum crispum, against the bacteria that cause urinary tract infection.

Deterioration of food quality via oxidative rancidity is often the primary factor limiting the shelf life of food products, even in foods that have low fat content.

Parsley (Petroselinum crispum) has been traditionally used for the treatment of allergy, autoimmune and chronic inflammatory disorders. The present study aims to investigate the suppressive effects of parsley essential oil on mouse splenocytes and macrophages cells.

Objective: To study the anti-inflammatory and hepatoprotective properties of an ethanolic extract of Parsley ‘Petroselinum crispum’ leaves.

Antioxidant and antibacterial activities of freeze-dried and irradiated parsley (Petroselinum crispum) and cilantro (Coriandrum sativum) leaves and stems were determined on methanol and water extracts.

Parsley will be used in humans because of the vital importance of carrying out these first-step tests.
