Growth and Metabolic Activity of Lemon Juice Vesicle Explants in Vitro

Lemon juice has protective activity in a rat urolithiasis model

BACKGROUND The use of herbal medicines (medicinal plants or phytotherapy) has recently gained popularity in Europe and the United States. Nevertheless the exact mechanism of the preventive effects of these products is still far to be clearly established, being its knowledge necessary to successfully apply these therapies to avoid stone formation. METHODS The effect of oral lemon juice adminis...

In vitro and in vivo study of effect of lemon juice on urinary lithogenesis.

OBJECTIVES The diversity of experimental results obtained in the study of the effect of citrus juice on urinary lithogenicity moved us to study the effect of these substances in vitro and in-vivo. The in-vitro study is based on the turbidimetric method on calcium oxalate crystallization. In vivo, we studied the effect of lemon juice consumption on urinary chemistry and we tested it on calcium o...

The effect of pomegranate juice, lemon juice and secanjabin in reducing infra-cardiac activity of 99mTc-MIBI during myocardial perfusion imaging in comparison with fatty food

Introduction: Eating fatty food is a common technique for decreasing extra cardiac activity, but sometimes patients refuse to eat fatty foods due to various reasons during myocardial perfusion imaging. The aim of this study is to introduce an alternative method for patients who are not able to use fatty foods to accelerate the transit of radiotracer from the liver. <stron...
