Enhancing the effect of soybean oil refinery byproducts on erythromycin production by Saccharopolyspora erythraea
Erythromycin production is clearly enhanced by the addition of vegetable oils. However,whether this positive effect is brought about by the triglyceride or non-triglyceride fraction, isnot clear. The non-triglyceride portions of the oils accumulate in the waste during the refiningprocess leaving mainly triglycerides in the refined oil. In this research, sub-fractions of soybeanoil, including le...
متن کاملSynthesis and biological activity of fatty acid derivatives of quinine.
Derivatives of quinine with fatty acids including polyunsaturated fatty acids were prepared. They showed moderate antimalarial activity as compared with quinine itself using Plasmodium falciparum. The activities were not dependent on whether the fatty acyl group was saturated or unsaturated. On the other hand, the derivatives showed significantly higher cytotoxicity against a mammary tumor cell...
متن کاملEffect of Scrophularia Striata Boiss Extract on in Vitro Gas Production Parameters, Concentration and Volatile Fatty Acids Profile and Hydrolytic Enzyme Activity in Ceca Contents of Male Adults Rabbits
IIn this study, the effect of different levels of Scrophularia striata extract on the parameters of laboratory gas production, the concentration of volatile fatty acids and the activity of hydrolytic enzymes on the contents of the cecum of adult male rabbits were investigated. For this purpose, 20 New Zealand rabbits weighing approximately 1.6 ± 0.2 kg (5 months and up) were used in a completel...
متن کاملPhytochemical Analysis and Anti-microbial Activity of Some Important Medicinal Plants from North-west Iran
Due to the increase of microbial resistance to antibiotics and the occurrence of side effects, use of medicinal plants with anti-microbial properties seems to be rational. Hence, in this study, some plants of the Apiaceae, Asteraceae, Brassicaceae, and Cucurbitaceae families were evaluated for antimicrobial effects. The aerial parts of the plants were extracted by different solvents using a Sox...
