Sage leaf

The antioxidant activity of rosemary and sage (leaves and extracts) were most effectively investigated [96,97], Traditional extracts of spices and herbs are obtained by steam distillation (essential oil) or by extracting the botanical with solvents such as alcohol, hexane, or acetone, and removing the solvents by evaporation. The SFE process for production of the inherent natural antioxidants is now the most gentle and effective method [70],... 

Dapkevicius et al. (1998) compared yields and antioxidant activities of four different extracts from rosemary and sage leaves an acetone, a water extract (both from deodorized plant material), and an acetone and SFC C02 extract (both from nondeodorized plant material). The yields (g per kg dry matter) ranged from 50.2 for the SFC C02 to 90.8 for the water extract from deodorized plant material. High antioxidant activity was found for the SFC C02 and the acetone extracts, but low activity was determined for all water extracts. This emphasizes the importance of camosol and carnosic acid that are extracted from leaves with water-ethanol solvent... 

The strong antioxidant activity of plant material from rosemary and sage leaves compared to other herbs was already recognized by Chipault et al. (1952). The antioxidant properties of rosemary and sage are extensively documented and well related to the phenolic diterpenes.

The co-occurrence in many plant species of structurally related monocyclic monoterpenes, such as limonene, terpinolene, and a-terpineol, raises an important question as to whether these compounds arise independently from an acyclic prenyl pyrophosphate precursor or whether such monoterpenes may be formed by sequential modification of a single monocyclic intermediate, such as a-terpineol (Croteau et al., 1973). Cell-free extracts capable of converting acyclic precursors to a-terpineol (Croteau et al., 1973) and to limonene (George-Nascimento and Cori, 1971 Chayet et al., 1977) are available, but until a cell-free system capable of synthesizing several structurally related compounds was obtained, the question of sequential or independent formation could not be resolved. A soluble enzyme preparation from sage leaves was shown to catalyze the conversion of NPP to a number of cyclic monoterpenes, including limonene, terpinolene, a-terpineol, and... 

Bomeol, isobomeol, and camphor are the most important members of the bomane (camphane) family of bicyclic monoterpenes. The labeling pattern of borneol and camphor derived from exogenous [2- C]mevalonate and [2- K jgeraniol in intact tissue is consistent with Ruzicka s hypothesis (Fig. 5) (Banthorpe and Baxendale, 1970 Battersby et al., 1972). Soluble enzyme preparations from sage leaves convert [1- H]NPP to (-t-)-[3- H]bomeol in the presence of Mg and, in the presence of NAD, dehydrogenate the bomeol to (-t-)-[3- H]camphor (Croteau and Karp, 1976b). [1- H]GPP was a less efficient precursor of borneol and camphor in this crude preparation. The epi-...

I ordered a Ten Sage with a wood-fired grilled hamburger on a toasted-garlic bun. The drink, with a sage leaf tumbleweeding lazily on the surface of the desert-pink liquid, was presented in a 7>/2-ounce Cardinal Excalibur No. 3031428 martini glass, said Mr. Adams in Seattle. The drink was perfectly pleasant, which is its intention. 

Pack a pint glass with ice and fill with all the ingredients. Shake well and serve strained into a 7>/2-ounce martini glass. Garnish with a sage leaf. 

I still prefer chewing and swallowing, if only from a sense of tidiness and tradition. Chewing with your cheeks full keeps the material in motion and insures that all parts of the mucosa are constantly bathed with sage leaf. More than once it has seemed to us that it is the stems, those chewy, chewy stems, that finally push it all over the edge. 

Essential oils from oregano herb (0. onite, laurel leaf (Lauras nobili, sage leaf (Salvia fruticosa), fennel fruit (Eoeniculum vulgare), myrtle leaf (JHyrtus communi , and citrus peel (rich in limonene) were mixed and formulated as feed additive after encapsulation. It is marketed in Turkey as poultry feed under the name Herbromix.

Camphor (C10H160) Found in essential oils of ho leaf, lavandin, spike lavender, rosemary and sage. An important compound used in many applications including medical preparations, but it is classified as toxic. 

Cedar Leaf Oil occurs as a colorless to yellow liquid having a strong camphoraceous and sage odor. It is the volatile oil obtained by steam distillation from the fresh leaves and branch ends of the eastern arborvitae, Thuja occidentalis L. (Fam. Cupressaceae). It is soluble in most fixed oils, in mineral oil, and in propylene glycol. It is practically insoluble in glycerin. 

SAFETY PROFILE Poison by intravenous, intraperitoneal, and subcutaneous routes. Moderately toxic by ingestion. Serious physiological consequences from abuse of absinthe (mainly in France) led to its aboKtion in 1915. Wormwood is still used in concentrations of less than 10 ppm in flavored wines. Thujone at 30 mg/kg causes convulsions associated with lesions of the cerebral cortex. Little is known of thujone metabolism. Both forms occur in wormwood oil, oak moss. The a form is major constituent of cedar leaf oil or oil of thuja, sage. The p form occurs in tansy, yarrow. When heated to decomposition it emits acrid smoke and irritating fumes. 

The leaf of Salvia officinalis (sage) contains 1.0-2.5% of essential oil, consisting of 35-60% of thujone. 

SAGE, Salviae folium is the leaf of Salvia officinalis L., family Lamiaceae. The leaves contain an essential oil with the main constituents thujone, cineole, camphor, borneol. The essential oil has an antiseptic and fungicidal effect, which is used in gargling-water and in some toothpastes. 

Terpineol, or more strictly, a-terpineol (3.38), is one of the most widespread of monocyclic monoterpenoid alcohols in nature. It is found in flowers such as narcissus and freesia herbs such as sage, marjoram, oregano and rosemary in the leaf oil of Ti-tree Melaleuca alternifolia) and in the oil expressed from the peel of lemons. Reports of the level of terpineol in oils occasionally vary considerably and one wonders how much this is due to variations in the plants and to variations in the isolation process since terpineol could be an artefact. The layman will often describe the odour of terpineol as pine disinfectant since terpineol is, in fact a major component of pine disinfectant. This product is prepared by distillation of turpentine in the presence of acid which results in opening of the ring of a-pinene (3.37) to produce a-terpineol as shown in Figure 3.19. 

Test run of known spice blends from published literature. The spice blends which contain basil, cinnamon leaf, peppermint, sage and wimergreen as reported by Lawrence and Shu (4) were used to test the effectiveness of the present iheoty. The ratios of individual spice are shown in Table VI, the coded numbers of identified volatile compounds in the spice blends are shown in Table VII Conqxiter output of numerical analyses of compounds shown in Table Vfl are listed in Table VIII, the similarity index of the testing result is 0.959, indicating a high level of confidence. In Table VIII, there are repeated identifications of the same type of spice, e.g., the appearance of basils H3, 19, 24, 26 and 27 doves 1 and 4 and mentha 1 and 12. In fact, the repeated appearance of the same spice indicates the closeness of these spices. It was also confirmed that the similarity index within the same spice listed in Table VIII usually ranged from 1.0 to 0.90 (data not shown). In order to...
