background and objective: edible, biodegradable films, by acting as barriers to control the transfer of moisture, oxygen, lipids, and flavours, can prevent quality deterioration and increase the shelf life of food products. on the other hand, regarding edible film capacity in transferring food additives, extending shelf-life of food products could be considered. so by adding antimicrobial-antio...

OBJECTIVES The aim of the present study was to prepare, characterize, and evaluate solid lipid nanoparticles (SLNs) containing Zataria multiflora essential oil (ZEO). MATERIALS AND METHODS In this study, Z. multiflora essential oil-loaded solid lipid nanoparticles (ZE-SLNs) were prepared to improve its efficiency in controlling some fungal pathogens. SLNs containing Z. multiflora essential oi...

objective(s):in insulin resistance, the insulin action in liver, muscles and adipocytes decreases and result in hyperglycemia, dyslipidemia and hyperinsulinemia. in this study we evaluate the effect of zataria multiflora extract on insulin sensitivity in high fructose fed insulin resistant rats, since this extract was shown antihyperglycemic effect in streptozotocin induced diabetes in rats.   ...
