NEW APPROACH TO ECOLOGICAL STRUCTURE EFFECTS OF MEDICAL AROMATIC PLANT EXTRACT/BORAX ON THE ANATOMICAL STRUCTURE OF WOOD AND HUMAN/ENVIRONMENTAL HEALTH
Özet
In this century, in which human and environmental health are prioritized in the usage of medical aromatic plant extract and boron chemical, both separately and in combination, when the effect of wood on the anatomical structure is assessed in the context of hygiene/antimicrobials, it opens up additional areas to be addressed (indoor/outdoor spaces, hospitals, space, and so on). In order to determine the anatomical characteristics, cross -sections (transverse/radial/tangential) of the wood samples were obtained and interactions/changes in the anatomical structure were identified under the light microscope, and the retention scale was created in relation to this. The retention level of both medicinal aromatic plant extract and borax in wood is the highest in mahogany wood (2.88%), while the lowest percentage is found in oriental spruce wood (0.35%). In comparison to the control sample, the air/full dry specific density change produced good outcomes in both wood types. The highest air-dried specific density value was found in borax (0.58 g/cm3) in mahogany wood, and in caw (Ferula comunis L.) plant, borax and ferula+borax (0.38 g/cm3) in spruce wood. In both wood species, retention occurred in sap rays and there was no retention in the traheid/trahe cells, which act as conduction, and retention was determined in these cells, since they are sapphire cells and cells that act as storage.
