BACKGROUND During production of sugar beet (Beta vulgaris) seeds in greenhouses, workers frequently develop allergic symptoms. The aim of this study was to identify and characterize possible allergens in sugar beet pollen. METHODS Sera from individuals at a local sugar beet seed producing company, having positive SPT and specific IgE to sugar beet pollen extract, were used for immunoblotting....

The Chenopodium album extracts served as a capping agent in the present work to synthesize Bi2O3 Nps. synthesized nanoparticles were confirmed by various spectroscopic techniques. Nano-structured was measured have mean size of 79.99nm. Anti-fungal activity Nps also evaluated. been shown impressive antifungal efficacy against variety fungal species. It's powerful anti-fungal medication that outp...

Chlorophyllase (Chlase) is the first enzyme involved in chlorophyll (Chl) degradation and catalyzes the hydrolysis of ester bond to yield chlorophyllide and phytol. In the present study, we isolated the Chlase cDNA. We synthesized degenerate oligo DNA probes based on the internal amino acid sequences of purified Chlase from Chenopodium album, screened the C. album cDNA library, and cloned a cDN...

The present study is aimed to investigate the effects of Chenopodium album (leaves) on the growth of estrogen dependent (MCF-7) and estrogen independent (MDA-MB-468) human breast cancer cell lines. The different solvent extracts (petroleum ether, ethyl acetate and methanol) were assessed for their cytotoxicity using TBE (Trypan blue exclusion) and MTT [3-(4, 5-dimethyl thiazol-2-yl)-2, 5-diphen...

-T~~ intensity of intraspecific competition under different levels of light and nitrogen supply was assessed for the temperate zone herb, Chenopodium album. Plants were grown at two densities (one or six plants/pot) in a modified factorial design with three levels each of light and nitrogen availability. This yielded five light/nitrogen treatments which comprised two gradients, one extending fr...

abstract nowadays, environmental pollution by heavy metals is one of the most serious threats of the world which needs effective remediation actions. the aim of this study was to investigate the potential use of atriplex [atriplex verucifera], salicornia [salicornia europaea] and chenopodium album in simultaneous uptake and accumulation of na and cd or pb in two calcareous soils with different ...
