Hyperimmunization of horses with specific antigens to harvest antisera is associated with high incidence of liver amyloidosis. The histopathologic examination is the gold standard method for diagnosis of the hepatic amyloidosis. The aim of the present study was to determine whether the clinical manifestations and serum values of appropriate chemical constituents due to liver injury, provide the...

Castor is an important oilseed crop with great utilitarian value in industrial, pharmaceutical and agricultural sectors, the major constituents of seeds are lipids, carbohydrates, proteins and, course, nucleic acids. Seed deterioration associated various cellular, metabolic chemical alterations to seed constituents. The objective this study was determine effects induced ageing on nutrient conte...

An experiment was conducted to study the different biochemical constituents imparting resistance and susceptibility rust of sorghum disease caused by Puccinia purpurea Cooke. For this, five resistant (R) susceptible (S) genotypes were inoculated at 30 days after sowing (DAS) studied both inoculation (DAI). Reduction in chlorophyll a, b, total chlorophyll, soluble protein, reducing sugar, non su...

Adherence to a Mediterranean style diet affords protection from degenerative diseases such as cardiovascular disorders and cancer. Identification of the active constituents of the Mediterranean diet is crucial to the formulation of appropriate dietary guidelines. Also, research on the pharmacological properties of the "minor components" of this diet, eg vitamins and polyphenols, is very active ...

Quantitative losses in various biochemical constituents like capsaicin, carotenes, ascorbic acid, polyphenols, mineral matter, sugars (soluble and insoluble), protein and fat were estimated after the successful growth of Aspergillus flavus for 30 days on powdered red pepper. The fungal biomass was measured by ergosterol content and Aflatoxin B1 by HPLC. Amongst the various nutritional constitue...

conclusions: the co-administration of saffron aqueous extract and safranal reduced toxic effects of safranal in acute and sub-acute toxicities. background: saffron and its constituents are widely used around the world as a spice and medicinal plant. different constituents in medicinal herbs are thought to have the potential to induce useful and/or adverse effects. so, efforts have been made to ...

Aging of organs starts from the time birth and continues throughout life. skin can be divided into two distinct types—intrinsic aging extrinsic, based on fact that is outermost organ exposed to external environment. However, despite their different histological features triggers, intrinsic extrinsic share common biochemical mechanisms. β-galactosidase, p16INK4a, senescence-associated secretory ...
