Abstract/OtherAbstract:
In this paper, we have studied the anti-Helicobacter pylori effect of 70 Greek plant extracts and a number of commercially available herbs used traditionally in folk medicine against gastric ailments, peptic ulcer included. The extracts of Anthemis melanolepis, Cerastium candidissimum, Chamomilla recutita, Conyza albida, Dittrichia viscosa, Origanum vulgare and Stachys alopecuros have been proved active against one standard strain and 15 clinical isolates of H. pylori.
