Nine Case Series With Phototoxic Dermatitis Related To Chenopodium Album
(Sage Publications Ltd, 2012) Ozkol, H. U.; Calka, O.; Karadag, A. S.; Akdeniz, N.; Bilgili, S. G.; Behcet, L.
Chenopodium album L. ssp. album is a common plant species worldwide, especially in humid areas. Sun exposure after oral intake of the plant can lead to sunburn-like rashes owing to its furocoumarin content. In this article, we reported nine patients who developed dermatitis with edema, erythema and necrosis on the face and dorsum of the hands. Each was exposed to sunlight after eating selemez (the vernacular name of C. album L. ssp. album). The plant samples analyzed by an expert botanist were described as C. album L. ssp. album belonging to Chenopodiacea family.
Phytosociological Investigation on the Macrophytic Vegetation of Lake Van
(1994) Behcet, L.
Lake Van has salt (soda) characteristics. Nine associations and two subassociations were described. The Potametum pectinati association was described in water. On the lake shore where the salt effect is high, mainly Puccinellietum gigantae, Carici-Menyanthetum trifoliatae and Triglochino-Bolboschoenetum maritimi were described. In places with salt, near to mouth of rivers flowing into Lake Van, Butometum umbellati, Sparganietum erecti, Scorzonereetum parviflorae (in the pasture with bad drainage lying at the back of marshy and muddy areas) and in flooded-beds Alopecuretum arundinaceae were described. Phragmitetum australi was the most tolerated association against ecological factors such as water level, saltness, etc. -English summary
