N2 - Chamomile (Matricaria recutita L) and Chrysanthemum (Chrysanthemum
coronarium L. (Garland)) are plants belonging to the family Asteraceae. The
pharmacological properties of these herbs result from interactions among
their many components. Of these, over 120 secondary metabolites with
pharmacological and/or potential pesticide activity have been identified. The
diverse chemical and biological characteristics of this set of compounds, i.e.,
essential oils and organic extracts of genera Matricaria and Chrysanthemum,
have been shown to have particular pesticidal effects, especially those rich in
pyrethroids. This work characterizes chamomile and chrysanthemum extracts
for their pesticidal properties and their effects following acute exposure in
rats. Results show hepatotoxic and oxidative stress-inducing effects in the livers of rats exposed to C. coronarium extracts, but not those of M. recutita
