قُيمت فعالية بعض المصادر الطبيعية المحلية كمضادات أكـسدة مثـل مـستخلص قـشور البرتقـال
و مستخلص قشور الرمان و مستخلص الزنجبيل من خلال إضافتها كل على حدة إلى زيت النخيل المكـرر،
و تخزينها مدة 5 أيام في الفرن في درجة حرارة 63 م، و مقارنتها بمضاد الأكسدة الاصـطناعي جاليـت
البروبيل (gallate Propyl) . المستخلصات أعلاه تم الحصول عليها من خلال استخلاصـها باسـتعمال
الإيثانول. أُضيفت هذه المستخلصات إلى زيت النخيـل بتركيـزين (ppm 100) و (ppm 200) . قـدرت
الفعالية المضادة للأكسدة للمستخلصات الطبيعية و مضاد الأكسدة الإصطناعي جاليت البروبيـل و معاملـة
الشاهد الخالية من مضاد الأكسدة ضمن الظروف الحرارية من خلال تقدير قيمة الحامض (AV) و قيمـة
البيروكسيد (PV) و قيمة اليودي (IV) و معامل الإنكسار (RI) خلال 5 أيام من خزن زيت النخيـل فـي
درجة الحرارة المذكورة أعلاه. كما قدرت الفعالية المضادة للأكسدة من خـلال دراسـة ثباتيـة الزيـت
باستعمال طريقة الرانسميت. أظهرت المعاملات جميعها فعالية مضادة للأكسدة. لوحظ من نتائج التحليـل
الإحصائي تفوق معاملة مستخلص قشور الرمان تفوقاً معنوياً (05.0<P) على معـاملات المستخلـصات
الأخرى، في حين لم تختلف معنوياً عن معاملة جاليت البروبيل.
Some local natural sources of antioxidant such as orange peel extract (Citrus
sinensis), pomegranate peel extract (Punica granatum) and ginger extract
(Zingiber officinale L.) were evaluated during 5 days storage of refined palm oil
at 63°C as compared to the synthetic antioxidant such as propyl gallate. The
above extracts were obtained with ethanol and oil (palm oil). Those extracts
were added to the oil at two different levels (100 ppm and 200 ppm).
Antioxidant activity of natural extracts, synthetic antioxidant and the control
treatment without antioxidant under thermal treatment (Schaal test) was
assessed by measuring acid value (AV), peroxide value (PV), iodine value (IV)
and refractive index (RI) during 6 days storage of refined palm oil at
temperature mentioned above. Antioxidant activity also measured by studying
the stability of oil by the use of rancimat method. All treatments exhibited
antioxidant activity. Statistical analysis results were shown that the
pomegranate peel extract treatment was significantly (P<0.05) superior than
the orange peel extract and ginger extract treatments whereas, it was not
significant difference about propyl gallate treatment.

The antibacterial activity of Golden henbane (Hyoscyamus aureus) on
several species of bacteria: Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Staphylococcus
aureus and Escherichia coli was determined. Samples of H. aureus
plants were collected from six locations in southern Syria. The extract
of roots and leaves of H. aureus were prepared at concentrations.
The aim of this study was to determine the
phenolic content in the fruit, leaf and root samples of the fennel
plant and in the fruit samples from several different areas, and
then to determine the antioxidant capacity of these samples.
The antibacterial activity of Inula viscosa L. leaves extracts against some pathogenic bacteria, which were isolated from Al-Assad hospital laboratory in Lattakia, was tested by disc diffusion method.
