background: viral warts are a common problem especially in young people. they are important as they are transmittable and cause social embarrassment. though there are several treatments for viral warts, none offer a fast, simple, complete cure by itself. a simple and inexpensive way of treatment would be outstanding, especially in developing countries. we aimed to determine the efficacy and saf...

trichophyton rubrum (t. rubrum) is an anthropophilic dermatophyte that is distributed worldwide and causes common cutaneous disease such as mycosis. although several properties of this fungus have been investigated so far, however a few studies were carried out in the field of molecular biology of this fungus. in the present study we tried to identify its molecular characterization of the goano...

Background and objectives: Betulinic acid (BA), oleanolic acid (OA) and ursolic acid (UA) are well-known pentacyclic triterpenoids (PTs), which are produced by plants. They possess a variety of beneficial effects including anti-inflammatory, hepatoprotective, antitumor, anti-HIV, antimicrobial, gastroprotective, and antihyperlipidemic activities. In the present study, quantitative determination...

serum fatty acids on 30 healthy lranian women were detemined by a gas chromatographic method. oleic and stearic acids were used as standards. the mean values were myristic acid 5. 7% , palmitic acid 43% , palmitoleic acid 5.3% , stearic acid 8% , oleic acid 21. 3% and linleic acid 16.4% of total fatty acid serum contents.

objective: polyphenol oxidase or ppo (ec 1.14.18.1) is considered the enzyme responsible for quality deterioration and browning in different fruits during postharvest period. the objective of this study was to evaluate the antibrowning (inhibition of polyphenol oxidase activity) effect of cysteine, ascorbic acid, citric acid, kojic acid and glycine at two different ph (6 and 7) in  hawthorn. me...

background: the primary phase of traumatic spinal cord injury (sci) starts by a complex local inflammatory reaction such as secretion of pro-inflammatory cytokines from microglia and injured cells that substantially contribute to exacerbating pathogenic events in secondary phase. valproic acid (vpa) is a histone deacetylase inhibitor. acetylation of histones is critical to cellular inflammatory...

background: hemoptysis occurs due to either pulmonary diseases or bronchoscopy interventions. the aim of the present study was to compare the efficacy of the endobronchial instillation of adrenaline with that of tranexamic acid. methods: fifty patients were randomly selected as 2 double-blinded sample groups (n=25). in these patients, bleeding could not be controlled with cold saline lavage dur...

in this paper, grafting of acrylic acid monomer on gum tragacanth was performed. variable of experiment included concentration of initiators and monomer, time, and temperature. grafting efficiency was measured in the term of percentage of grafting (%g) and percentage of grafting efficiency (%e). effectiveness of grafted gum in ferrous ion removal at different condition was assessed. according t...

spinal cord injury (sci), a common result of car accidents, high-altitude falls and crashes, and other violent injuries is increasing yearly. histone deacetylases (hdac) inhibitors including depakine the main characteristics of the use of anti-inflammatory. the purpose of this investigation is to evaluate the effect of depakine intervention on the acute sci at the chronic phase using functional...
