Background The 7S vicilin-like seed storage globulins represent an important class of food allergens. In many plants, the 7S globulins are synthesized as a precursor polypeptide, which undergoes post-translational proteolysis to remove a portion of the N-terminus to produce the mature protein sequence. However, the fate of the cleaved N-terminal region is largely unknown. We have identified and...

the study aimed to come up with a list of specific macroalgae species, which could be used to biomonitor specific metal elements in the coastal waters of east africa. water extraction, edta, aqua regia extraction and optimized bcr 3-step sequential extracts were used to mimic bioavailable metals under various environmental conditions. the results indicated that ulva lactuca could be used as a b...

abstract aims: bovine mastitis continues to be the most costly disease to the dairy farmers. it dominates in iran as one of the most prevalent diseases in dairy cattle among the dairy farms. mastitis treatment with antibiotics leads to the development of antibiotic resistant strains and consumer health problem. this study was performed for the first time to analyze in vitro effects of hydro-alc...

Samples were sectioned with observation surface parallel to the normal of the short transverse direction (ST) that were removed from Block B as shown in Figures 1 and 2. A sample was polished and then etched with Agua Regia. The sample was then analyzed in a Leica MEF4M metallograph to observe microstructure and then analyzed in a Zeiss 1540 XB Field Emission Gun Scanning Electron Microscope (F...

Delonix regia (Boj. Ex. Hook) is a flowering plant in the pea family found in tropical areas and its leaves are used informally to treat diseases in folk medicine. However, the cardioprotective effects in this plant are still unclear. In this study, we found that the Delonix regia leaf extract (DRLE) (400 mg/kg/d) can reduce the mortality rate in an isoproterenol (ISO)-induced heart injury and ...

INTRODUCTION Staphylococcus epidermidis is one of the most frequent causes of biofilm-associated infections on indwelling medical devices. With the emergence of methicillin-resistant S. epidermidis (MRSE), there is an urgent need to discover novel active agents against a range of Gram-positive pathogens. We screened the clinical isolates of S. epidermidis for susceptibility/resistance against c...

Tropical plants are utilized in traditional medicine and are a storehouse of secondary metabolites, some of which display medicinal properties. Five plants were selected for investigation, namely Cassia fistula, Delonix regia, Senna siamea, Spathodea campanulata and Tibouchina granulosa. Extracts of the inflorescence of these plants were prepared and their antioxidant, total phenolics and fatty...
