The ameliorative activity of aqueous extract of the flesh of dates (Phoenix dactylifera L.) and ascorbic acid on thioacetamide-induced hepatotoxicity was studied in rats. Sixty male rats were divided into six equal groups of 10. Two groups were controls, one treated with thioacetamide and one with only distilled water. Two groups received extract of flesh Phoenix dactylifera and intraperitoneal...

The effect of pH and temperature on the stability and visual colour of aqueous anthocyanin (ACY) extracts from purpleand red-flesh potatoes was evaluated and compared to commercial ACY extracts from grape and purple carrot. Extracts from purple carrot and redflesh potatoes showed higher stability than grape and purple-flesh potato extracts. Stability to pH (63) and thermal degradation of extrac...

We examined the inhibitory effect of the extract of kakrol extracted by 3 types of solvent (water, 50% and 100% ethanol) on histamine release in human basophilic KU812 cells. The water extract of kakrol flesh showed the strongest inhibitory effect on histamine release as compared with the other extracts. Therefore, we evaluated whether water extract of kakrol flesh had a suppressive effect on d...

The aim of this study was to investigate changes in the microbiological and physiochemical characteristics in Egyptian salted-fermented fish (Feseikh) during processing, ripening and storage. Isolation of total viable bacteria, Enterobacteriaceae, lipolytic bacteria, proteolytic bacteria, total spore forming bacteria (CFU/g) and Clostridium perfringens (MPN) from fish flesh, fish intestine and ...

Executable code existed centuries before the invention of the computer in magic, Kabbalah, musical composition and experimental poetry. These practices are often neglected as a historical pretext of contemporary software culture and electronic arts. Above all, they link computations to a vast speculative imagination that encompasses art, language, technology, philosophy and religion. These spec...

BACKGROUND/OBJECTIVES In this study, potential anti-inflammatory effect of enzymatic hydrolysates from Styela clava flesh tissue was assessed via nitric oxide (NO) production in lipopolysaccahride (LPS) induced RAW 264.7 macrophages and in vivo zebrafish model. MATERIALS/METHODS We investigated the ability of enzymatic hydrolysates from Styela clava flesh tissue to inhibit LPS-induced express...

Prosthetics soft tissue trauma is attacked with a combination of theoretical and experimental tools . A novel socket design results, accentuating flesh stress relief at the socket brim . Currently, the novel socket has been fitted to two subjects with long histories of stump trauma ; field test results are not yet available.

Watermelon [Citrullus lanatus (Thunb.) Matsum. & Nakai var. lanatus] is a diverse species, with fruits of different sizes, shapes, rind patterns, and flesh colors. This study measured the inheritance of novel rind phenotypes and verified the genetics of white, red, salmon yellow, and canary yellow flesh colors. For each of the 11 crosses, six generations (P(a)S1, P(b)S1, F1, F2, BC1P(a), and BC...
