Understanding the Role of Antioxidants in Health: Insights from Dr. Abdulkarim Dakah's Research
Dr. Abdulkarim Dakah's research focuses on evaluating the antioxidant activity of the wild medicinal plant Ziziphora tenuior and using plant tissue culture to enhance its effectiveness. He discusses Reactive Oxygen Species (ROS), diseases caused by ROS, methods to reduce ROS in the body, and the importance of plant tissue culture in medicinal plants. The research sheds light on the potential benefits of Ziziphora tenuior and the significance of antioxidants in maintaining health.

Conclusions we can use plant tissue culture to increase the active substance. our results showed that the water extracts of in vitro produced plants showed an increase in antioxidant activity as compared to the starting material (wild plant). Dr. Abdulkarim Dakah
