Biological screening of Scrophularia nodosa crude extract and its fractions (hexane, chloroform, ethyl-acetate, n-butanol and aqueous) was carried out on phytotoxicity, cytotoxicity, antibacterial, antifungal and analgesic activities. Crude extract and its fractions produced 50-100% phytotoxicity at 1000μ/mL concentration whereas 25-77% phytotoxicity was observed at 10μ/mL concentration. The fr...

To investigate the influence of harpagide isolated from Scrophularia ningpoensis Hemsl. on human umbilical vascular endothelial cells damage induced by oxidized low-density lipoprotein and its possible mechanism. Human were cultured in vitro. Different doses (20, 40, 80 μmol/l) applied to treat lipoprotein, overexpressing microRNA-140-5p μg/ml was with downregulation. Enzyme-linked immunosorben...

The application of assisted phytoextraction to the remediation of abandoned mining areas can be a valuable method to reclaim these areas without modifying soil and landscape characteristics. An in situ application of continuous phytoextraction technique was carried out in the area of Campo Pisano, near Iglesias (Sardinia, Italy) followed by a laboratory assisted phytoextraction test using the b...

Scrophularia kakudensis is an important medicinal plant with pharmaceutically valuable secondary metabolites. To develop a sustainable source of naturaceuticals with vital therapeutic importance, a cell suspension culture was established in S. kakudensis for the first time. Friable calli were induced from the leaf explants cultured on a Murashige and Skoog (MS) medium containing 3.0 mg·L(-1) 6-...

I stayed in National Dong Hwa University(NDHU) for two months (Aug.1,2009 to Sep.30,2009) and carried out my research activities under the guidance of Prof.Hsin-Jang Shieh at The Mechatronics and Control Laboratory, Department of Electrical Engineering, as well as the library of NDHU, mainly on the weekdays. NDHU locates in Hualien prefecture which is the largest prefecture in the east side and...

The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effects of Scrophularia striata water extract on the quality and shelf life of the rainbow trout fillet during superchilled storage. Fish samples were treated with 1% and 3% S. striata water extract and then stored at -2°C for 20 days. The samples were analyzed periodically for chemical, microbial and sensory characteristics. Results indicated that ...
