The heart is incapable of storing significant oxygen or substrates and thus is entirely dependent on a continuous delivery of flow in order to support its high metabolic state. Following cardiac arrest, myocardial tissue oxygen tension falls rapidly and aerobic production of ATP ceases. Without re-oxygenation of the ischemic myocardium, return of spontaneous circulation (ROSC) cannot be achieve...

In the present work a simple, precise, accurate and reproducible Gas Chromatography-Mass Spectrometry method is developed and validated for separation, identification and quantification of three pharmacologically active compounds, β-sitosterol, Lupeol and Friedelin simultaneously in the methanolic leaf extract of Nyctanthes arbor-tristis and from its marketed formulation. These compounds were e...

Cupresseaceae familyasına ait Doğu mazısı (Thuja orientalis L.), peyzaj açısından kullanımıyla birlikte kereste ve odun üretimi için önemli bir orman ağacı türüdür. Bununla tıbbi olarak kullanımı mazıyı oldukça bitkiler sınıfına sokmaktadır. Çalışmada, bitki biyoteknolojisinin tekniklerinden biri olan embriyo kültürü tekniği ile çoğaltarak sonuçlar elde edilmiştir. Sakarozun farklı dozları birl...

The feeding preferences of the Formosan subterranean termite, Coptotermes formosanus Shiraki, were tested in three separate experiments on 28 different wood species. Experiment 1 was a multiple-choice test designed to test relative preferences among 24 wood species commercially available in New Orleans, LA. Experiment 2 was a similar study designed to test relative preferences among 21 wood spe...

The essential oil from seed coats of Thuja orientalis L. (Family cupressaceae) obtained in an yield of 1% has been studied for its antimicrobial activity against 6 bacteria and 5 fungi using filter paper disc agar diffusion technique. The oil has shown good to moderate activity of the oil against all six test bacteria. The activity of the oil against S. typhi has been found remarkable at 1:1000...

Abstract Forests in the northeastern US are experiencing shifts community composition due to northward migration of warm-adapted tree species and certain species’ declines (for example, white ash eastern hemlock) invasive insects. Changes belowground fungal communities associated functions will inevitably follow. Therefore, we sought investigate relative importance two important characteristics...

Servi kanserine sebep olan Seiridium cardinale (W.W. Wagener)’nin Çanakkale’de limoni servilerde (Cupressus macrocarpa cv. Goldcrest) yaygınlığı, hastalık oranı, morfolojik ve patojenik karakterizasyonun saptanması amacıyla 2021-2022 yılları arasında sörvey gerçekleştirilmiştir. Etmenin alanının tamamında var olduğu oranının % 1.65 saptanmıştır. Ana gövde veya yan dallarda geriye doğru ölüm, da...

We investigated interannual variability of canopy transpiration per unit ground area (E (C)) and per unit leaf area (E (L)) across seven tree species in northern Wisconsin over two years. These species have previously been shown to be sufficient to upscale stand-level transpiration to the landscape level during one growing season. Our objective was to test whether a simple plant hydraulic model...
