BACKGROUND Walnut (Juglans regia L.), that belongs to the Juglandaceae family, is one of the nuts commonly found in Chinese diets. Researchers had obtained peptides from walnut protein hydrolysates, and these peptides exhibited the high antioxidant activities. The objective of this study was to develop a simple and convenient method for a facile and reproducible preparation of antioxidant pepti...

An analysis of genetic structure and differentiation in cultivated walnut (Juglans regia) using 15 microsatellite loci revealed a considerable amount of genetic variation with a mild genetic structure indicating five genetic groups corresponding to the centers of diversity within the home range of walnut in Eurasia. Despite the narrow genetic differentiation among groups accounting for only 10 ...

Background & Aims of the Study: A high nitrate and arsenic concentration in water resources represent a potential risk to the environment and public health. The present work improved a chemo-physically modified activated carbon derived from walnut shells as an adsorbent to improve nitrate and arsenic removal ability from water. Materials & ...

At present, many countries in the world are facing serious water crisis, the shortage of water in our country is particularly prominent, especially refining industry, water shortage and water pollution problems in our country have seriously affected the survival of enterprises and sustainable development. In this paper, based on literature research and field investigation, two stage discharging...

Ibuprofen, a widely used non-steroidal anti-inflammatory, anti-pyritic and analgesic, occurs in the aquatic systems of 47 countries. It was removed (∼70 mg g −1 Langmuir ∼30 at 7.5 L by column uptake) <40% activated carbon’s cost.

The aim of this work was to study the influence of a walnut (Juglans regia) extract on the growth of Escherichia coli (E. coli) AB1157, on the plasmid DNA topology and on the labeling of blood constituents with technetium-99m (Tc). An E. coli AB1157 culture, in stationary phase, was incubated with walnut and the growth of the culture was evaluated by optical density at 600 nm for 7 hours. Plasm...
