Environmentally Friendly Extraction of Bioactive Compounds from Spruce and Pine Needles to Obtain Extracts with Antioxidant and Antimicrobial Activity

Timber harvesting of coniferous trees (the most abundant species in the Northern Hemisphere) leaves significant greenery side streams – coniferous needles and branches (pine, spruce and other species). Coniferous needles have been widely used in ethnomedicine, and recent research characterizes them...
