Cytogenetical studies on the genus Sesbania Scop. I. Karyotype.

Cytogenetical studies on swine intersexes.

Longitudinal differentiation in chromosomes of some Sesbania Scop, species (Fabaceae)

Three different techniques were applied to analyze the patterns of longitudinal chromosome differentiation in five Sesbania species (S. exasperata, S. punicea, S. sesban, S. tetraptera, and two different geographical populations of S. virgata). For all the species investigated, the prophase chromosome condensation was always proximal. After staining with the fluorochromes chromomycin A, and DAP...

Cytogenetical and histochemical studies on curcumin in male rats

Curcumin is a major component of the curcuma species, commonly used as a yellow coloring and flavoring agent in foods. Curcumin has been demonstrated to have potent antioxidant, anti-inflammatory activity and has shown anticancer properties in many rodent models. There is the perception that since compounds are natural, they are devoid of toxicity and safe to use. Some of the active compounds i...

Faunistic Studies on the Genus Culiseta (Diptera:Culicidae) in Guilan Province

To study mosquito ( Diptera : Culicidae) fauna in Guilan province (Caspian sea littoral , North of Iran ), an investigation was carried out during April to December 2000. The whole set of 2478 adult specimens from 64 habitats and 6656 larvae from 127 larval breeding places was collected .
