Polydopamine (PDA) films allow to functionalize almost all materials with a conformal and chemically active coating. These coatings can react reducible metallic cations kinds of molecules carrying nucleophilic groups. Recently, our team extended PDA chemistry vast repertoire oxidants acidic conditions. However, the influence changes in method deposition on properties obtained coatings, particul...

Objective: The current study was planned to investigate the anti-carcinogenic & anti-oxidant property of Ruellia tuberosa L. (Acanthaceae) methanolic leaf extract (MERTL) on HepG2 cell line & RAW 264.7 murine macrophage cell lysate respectively. Methods: The potent cytotoxic activity of MERTL has been studied by cell growth inhibition study & MTT assay on metabolically active HepG2 cells. 1% Ag...

Little is known about the biological effect of folate in the protection against mitochondrial (mt) oxidative decay. The objective of the present study was to examine the consequence of folate deprivation on mt oxidative degeneration, and the mechanistic link underlying the relationship. Male Wistar rats were fed with an amino acid-defined diet containing either 8 (control) or 0 (folate-deficien...
