In this research, Anethum graveolens which is an aromatic plant that contains essential oils have non-polar and polar components are evaluated for their anti-oxidant property through in-vitro assays. Herbs different chemical constituents include the unique functions of ownership pharmacological activities. Extraction technique to extract active phytochemical lead moiety from crude plant....

Proteins contain a large fraction of regular, repeating conformations, called secondary structure. A simple, generic definition of secondary structure is presented which consists of measuring local correlations along the protein chain. Using this definition and a simple model for proteins, the forces driving the formation of secondary structure are explored. The relative role of energy and entr...

In the course of an investigation concerning perfusion of the alligator heart (Rosenblatt, 1936) it was found desirable to have data available on the normal constituents of the blood of this animal. The only data reported are those of Austin, Sunderman, and Camack (1927) whose work was concerned with the serum electrolyte changes in the alligator with variations in body temperature. Dill and Ed...

This paper provides a sound, complete and decidable equational theory for the terms of the (I; ;?;!)-fragment of intuitionistic linear logic with respect to the class of models known as linear categories. This work uses the natural deduction style presentation of the !-type constructor in DILL so as to be able to apply the ideas of adjoint rewriting. We obtain an expansionary-rewrite rule and c...

DILL, L. M., R. C. YDENBERG, and A. H. G. FRASER. 1981. Food abundance and territory size in juvenile coho salmon (Oncorhynchus kisutch). Can. J. Zool. 59: 180 1 1809. Feeding territory size and potential food abundance were measured simultaneously in a field population of juvenile (40-50 mm) coho salmon. Territory size was inversely related to the density of benthic food on the territory, as p...

Since natural antioxidants present increasing interest for food industry due to their beneficial effect on health, new potential sources have been screened among edible aromatic plants and a microalgae, Spirulina platensis. The determination was performed after optimising a previously validated method, because important differences have been found among values described in literature for tocoph...

background: safety and efficacy of the synthetic antioxidants used in the food industry are frequently questioned because such antioxidants are unstable and highly volatile, therefore, interest in finding naturally occurring antioxidants that have the potential to protect human beings from damage induced by oxidative stress has intensified. objective: bioactivities of thymus daenensis and aneth...
