متن کاملRecycling of phenolic compounds in Borneo’s tropical peat swamp forests
BACKGROUND Tropical peat swamp forests (TPSF) are globally significant carbon stores, sequestering carbon mainly as phenolic polymers and phenolic compounds (particularly as lignin and its derivatives) in peat layers, in plants, and in the acidic blackwaters. Previous studies show that TPSF plants have particularly high levels of phenolic compounds which inhibit the decomposition of organic mat...
متن کاملSeed dispersal of woody plants in tropical forests: concepts, examples and future directions
Introduction Understanding seed dispersal is critical to understanding plant population and community dynamics (Nathan & Muller-Landau 2000), especially in tropical forests where seed rain of virtually all plant species is sparse and patchy (Hubbell et al. 1999; Muller-Landau et al. 2002). Seed rain determines potential population growth rates and spatial patterns, as well as the relative influ...
متن کاملdetection of volatile compounds of medicinal plants with some nano-sorbents using modified or new methodologies and investigation of antioxidant activity of their methanolic extracts
in this work, a novel and fast method for direct analysis of volatile compounds (davc) of medicinal plants has been developed by holding a filament from different parts of a plant in the gc injection port. the extraction and analysis of volatile components of a small amount of plant were carried out in one-step without any sample preparation. after optimization of temperature, extraction time a...
Antihypoxic Activities of Aerial Parts and Roots of Ferula persica in Mice
Background and purpose: Hypoxia occurs in ischemia and heart attack, and leads to death. It involves production of reactive oxygen species. Antioxidants exhibit antihypoxic properties. Ferula persica has distinctive antioxidant activities. Nothing is known about the protective effect of this plant against hypoxia-induced lethality in mice. Materials and methods: Protective effects of methanol...
