Recently most interest has been focused on active compounds extracted from natural sources. The genus Salvia from the Lamiaceae family produce a variety of secondary metabolites, many of them have been investigated for their analgesic, anti-inflammatory, hemostatic, antioxidant, antimicrobial, antitumoral activities (Topçu, 2006). The aim of this study is to characterize the bioactivity of exudates extracted from several species of Salvia. A first screening detected the lethality’s effect of extracts from seventeen species of Salvia on Artemia salina; then two species of Salvia already known for their phytotoxicity (Bisio et al., 2010) were tested for their antifouling activity using larvae of the cirriped crustacean Amphibalanus amphitrite (cyprids and nauplii) as model organism

Abstract

Recently most interest has been focused on active compounds extracted from natural sources. The genus Salvia from the Lamiaceae family produce a variety of secondary metabolites, many of them have been investigated for their analgesic, anti-inflammatory, hemostatic, antioxidant, antimicrobial, antitumoral activities (Topçu, 2006). The aim of this study is to characterize the bioactivity of exudates extracted from several species of Salvia. A first screening detected the lethality’s effect of extracts from seventeen species of Salvia on Artemia salina; then two species of Salvia already known for their phytotoxicity (Bisio et al., 2010) were tested for their antifouling activity using larvae of the cirriped crustacean Amphibalanus amphitrite (cyprids and nauplii) as model organism
