Phytocomplex influences antimicrobial and health properties of concentrated glycerine macerates
The purpose of this study was to correlate the chemical composition of four commercial
concentrated glycerine macerates (C-GMs), produced through the same extraction method, with their
in vitro antimicrobial, antioxidant, and immunomodulatory properties, in order to evaluate their
potential for healing upper airway diseases. C-GMs of Carpinus betulus (CB), Ficus carica (FC),
Alnus glutinosa (AG) and Ribes nigrum (RN) were studied. The quality was evaluated using HPLC and
