Gabapentin is an anticonvulsant widely used in the treatment of epilepsy.An accurate and validated spectrophotometric method was developed as an alternative method to determine gabapentin in pharmaceutical products. This is a simple, accurate, precise, selective and visible spectrophotometric method. The method is based on the measurement of drug absorbance as a result of yellow solution format...

The trophic linkage between yellow perch Perca flavescens and two exotic prey items, alewife Alosa pseudoharengus and round goby Neogobius melanostomus, was investigated in the extreme southern area of Lake Michigan during the summer of 2002. Yellow perch 100mm total length, LT (n1⁄4 1293) exhibited size selective feeding, with 148 fish containing round gobies and 120 fish containing alewives. ...

Two new quinochalcone C-glycosides, named hydroxysafflor yellow B (1) and hydroxysafflor yellow C (2), along with two known quinochalcone C-glycosides, safflomin C (3) and saffloquinoside C (4), and one known flavanone, (2R)-4',5-dihydroxyl-6, 7-di-O-β-d-glucopyranosyl flavanone (5), were isolated from the florets of Carthamus tinctorius. Their structures were determined by extensive spectrosco...

the antioxidant activities of methanol (me), ethanol (ee), water (we) and ethyl acetate (eae) extracts of four inula helenium l. taxa (i. helenium ssp. orygalis (boiss.) grierson, i. helenium ssp. pseudohelenium grierson, i. helenium ssp. turcarasemosa grierson and i. helenium ssp. vanensis grierson) were investigated. the phosphomolybdenum assay, β-carotene–linoleate bleaching and dpph radical...

Bitter apple or tumba (Citrullus colocynthis L.) is a prostrate annual herb belonging to the Cucurbitaceae family. It highly tolerant against multiple abiotic stresses like drought, heat, and soil salinity can easily grow on very marginal soil, even sand dunes in hot, arid regions. Tumba fruit fleshy berry 5–10 cm diameter of pale yellow color at ripening. The used this research was harvested f...

Different colored bell peppers (Capsicum annuum L.), green, red, and yellow were examined for their content of phenolic compounds, ascorbic acid and carotenoids as well as free radical scavenging activity using DPPH assay and antioxidant activity using ß-carotene/linoleic acid assay. Phenolic, ascorbic acid and carotenoid contents varied in different colored bell peppers. Green pepper had highe...
