in this study, the total 80% of meoh extract and also petroleum ether, chcl3, etoac, n-buoh, and the remaining meoh fractions obtained by solvent-solvent fractionation of the whole flowering samples of centaurea bruguierana (dc.) hand.-mzt. ssp. belangerana (dc.) bornm. (asteraceae), namely “baad-avard”, collected from borazjan in bushehr province (bushehr, iran) were investigated for larvicida...

background: this study aimed at determining the appropriate method for dewatering and drying biomass and selecting a suitable organic solvent for lipid extraction. methods: nannochloropsis oculata was cultured in gillard f/2 medium and after reaching the end of the stationary growth phase, algal biomass was separated from aqueous by centrifuge and dried through three methods: oven, air-dried an...

objectives: this study was designed to investigate the potential phyllanthus niruri extracts in promotion of hair growth. materials and methods: here, we studied the hair growth promoting activity of petroleum ether extract of p. niruri following its topical administration. alopecia was induced in albino rats by subcutaneous administration of testosterone for 21 days. evaluation of hair loss in...

Previous communications from this laboratory have presented evidence that the unsymmetrical thio ether, ZZ-S-(@-amino-~-carboxyethyl)homocysteine (cystathionine),’ may serve in lieu of cystine for the growth of rats (2) and that an enzyme is present in the liver capable of cleaving the thio ether to yield cysteine (3). Brand, in his original suggestion (4) regarding this thio ether as an interm...

Exosomes are vesicles released by cells after fusion of multivesicular bodies with the plasma membrane. In this study, we have investigated whether ether lipids affect the release of exosomes in PC-3 cells. To increase the cellular levels of ether lipids, the ether lipid precursor hexadecylglycerol was added to cells. Lipidomic analysis showed that this compound was in fact able to double the c...

bUnequivocal class separations of tissue lipids are important particularly whcn high temperature gas Chromatography is used at the same time for the determination of the long-chain acid composition of major lipid classes. This problem was studied most recently by Hirsch and Ahrens (1) ; their procedurc involves silicic acid column chromatography with clution by ether-petroleum ether mixtures fo...

The thermochemolytic behavior of 4-O-etherified cinnamyl alcohols and aldehydes in lignin was investigated in the presence of tetramethylammonium hydroxide (TMAH) (315 degrees C/4 s), using veratrylglycol-beta-(coniferyl alcohol) ether (1a), veratrylglycol-beta-(sinapyl alcohol) ether (1b), and veratrylglycol-beta-(coniferyl aldehyde) ether (2). The methylated products were monitored with gas c...

2-Formyl-1-hydroxyanthraquinone, along with ten other known anthraquinones (1-hydroxy-2-methylanthraquinone, nordamnacanthal, damnacanthal, lucidin-?-methyl ether, rubiadin, rubiadin-1-methyl ether, soranjidiol, morindone, morindone-5-methyl ether and alizarin-1-methyl ether), isolated from the roots of Morinda elliptica , were assayed for anti-HIV, cytotoxic and antimicrobial activites. Only d...
