Punicalagin is a major component responsible for pomegranate's (Punica granatum) antioxidant properties. Punicalagin is the predominant ellagitannin of Punica granatum and present in two isomeric forms: punicalagin α and β. Punicalagin is metabolised to ellagic acid (antioxidant) and microorganisms present in colon can metabolize ellagic acid to urolithins. The aim of in vitro study was to exam...

It is shown that P. can withstand a short-term decrease in air temperature to minus 15 ° C without damage, case winter shelter with insulation material 25 C.The requirements pomegranate for heat highlighted - fruit ripening it needs...

Although three species of the genus Macrourus are recognized in the Southern Ocean, DNA sequencing of the mitochondrial COI gene revealed four well-supported clades. These barcode data suggest the presence of an undescribed species, a conclusion supported by meristic and morphometric examination of specimens.

In this paper we investigate and refine Liu's procedure for the exploitation of the entropy inequality. We give a new-old proof of Liu's theorem. We shortly compare the Coleman-Noll and Liu techniques and call the attention to the proper application of the constraints in the procedure. As an example the Ginzburg-Landau equation and some variants are derived.
