Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is a frequent and fatal human cancer with poor diagnosis that accounts for over half a million deaths each year worldwide. Elaeagnus angustifolia L. known as oleaster has a wide range of pharmacological activities. This study aimed to investigate the chemopreventive effect of aqueous extract of E. angustifolia fruit (AEA) against diethylnitrosamine (DEN)-induced H...

The paper focuses on the in vitro antimicrobial activity of Lavandula angustifolia Mill. (lavender) essential oil in combination with four commercial antimicrobial agents. Stock solutions of chloramphenicol, ciprofloxacin, nystatin, and fusidic acid were tested in combination with L. angustifolia essential oil. The antimicrobial activities of the combinations were investigated against the Gram-...

Granular activated carbon (GAC) was synthesized from Silver berry (Elaeagnus Angustifolia L.) seeds using zinc chloride as the activation agent. To optimize operating parameters, effects of time and temperature carbonization, impregnation ratio, heating rate on iodine number yield were studied. Optimized parameters ratio 1:1, carbonization 500 °C, 1 hour, 5 °C/min. The GAC under optimized condi...

The problem of the uncontrolled spread alien plant species matured in world second half 20th century, and recent decades it has become main threat to biological diversity various regions world. Prevention Invasions is a new urgent task field nature protection, which determines relevance study. purpose study determine predict distribution area invasive plants, based on use following methods: com...

the antinociceptive effect of elaeagnus angustifolia fruits was studied in mice. the antinociceptive effect of ethanolic and boiling water extracts was studied using two thermal stimuli, the hot-plate and tail-flick tests. the intraperitoneal and oral administration of the ethanolic extract of seed 0.75-7.00 g/kg), but not pericarp and medulla had significant antinociceptive activity in the hot...

INTRODUCTION: The United States Army Corp of Engineers (USACE) Ecosystem Management and Restoration Research Program (EMRRP) is supporting a nationwide effort to address the impact of invasive woody plant species on ecosystem restoration, and more specifically, to determine mechanisms to address the most regionally prevalent invasive species impacting restoration activities. The research effort...
