[ 1 ] - Phytochemical Investigation on Euphorbia macrostegia (Persian wood spurge)

Euphorbia macrostegia or Persian wood spurge is one of the seventeen endemic plants of this genus in Iran. Three triterpenoids: 24-methylenecycloartan-3β-ol (1), butyrospermol (2) and cycloartenol (3) and three diglycerides: 1,2-di-O-α-linolenoyl-sn-glycerol (4), 1-O-linoleoyl-3-O-palmitoyl-sn-glycerol (5) and 1-O-α-linolenoyl-2-O-palmitoyl-sn-glycerol (6) were isolated from a hexane layer of m...

[ 2 ] - Biological Activity and Chemical Constituents of Red and Brown Algae from the Persian Gulf

Different solvent extracts of a red algae, Hypnea flagelliformis,and two brown algae, Cystoseira myrica and Sargassum boveanum, collected from the Persian Gulf coast were subjected to different bioassays including: 1,1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) free radical scavenging assay, antibacterial and antifungal activity by thin layer chromatography (TLC)-bioautography, agar disc diffusion (ADD) ...

[ 5 ] - بررسی فعالیت سیتوتوکسیک بخش های هگزانی و دی کلرومتانی عصاره متانولی اسفنجIrcinia mutans بر روی سه رده سلول سرطان انسانی

اسفنج ها به عنوان ابتدائی ترین ارگانیسم های یوکاریوت پرسلولی، جانورانی ساکن چسبیده به بستر و بدون اندام دفاعی مشخصی می باشند، بنابراین برای دفاع از خود در برابر شکارچیان و پاتوژن های موجود در محیط، متابولیت های ثانویه متعددی تولید می کنند. در این تحقیق، اسفنج Ircinia mutans، جمع آوری شده از آبهای جزیره لارک خلیج فارس، به منظور ارزیابی خاصیت سیتوتوکسیک بخش های هگزانی و دی کلرومتانی عصاره ی متانو...

[ 6 ] - Antifungal effect of the bark and root extracts of Punica granatum on oral Candida isolates

Background and Purpose: Oral candidiasis is one of the most common fungal infections in humans. The treatment and prophylaxis of the patients suffering from this infection require the identification of new anti-Candida agents with no side effects or toxicity like medicinal plants. The present study was conducted to compare the antifungal activities of the aqueous, ethanolic, and methanolic extr...

[ 7 ] - Isolation and evaluation of cytotoxic and antioxidant activity of bioactive metabolites of cultured actinobacteria in Persian Gulf marine sediments

Screening bacteria for bioactive compounds is the first step in the drug discovery programs. The aim of the present research was to achieve cytotoxic and antioxidant metabolites from actinobacteria of Persian Gulf sediments and to investigate the effects of combinations of seven treatments and six isolation media on the selective isolation process. A total of 395 actinobacterial isolates were c...
