Sudan dyes I, II, III & IV are synthetic, oil-soluble, red-coloured azo dyes. These suspected genotoxic carcinogens and have been used in the adulteration of palm oil products. Many experimental studies on animal specimen confirmed formation tumour due to presence different food In this study, a Simple Thin Layer Chromatographic method is described for qualitative detection Sudan-I, gotten ...

green fig, which is usually consumed as dry fruit, is one of the important non-oil export agricultural commodities of iran. in this study, some important physical properties of green figs including geometric mean diamter, sphericity, porosity, particle and bulk density and pressure drop across a thin bed were measured at constant moisture content of 6% (dry basis). air flow ranges used in this ...

The walnut oil (Juglans regia L.) total lipids (TL) were extracted by the Bligh-Dyer method and the lipid classes have been isolated by chromatographic techniques and they were analyzed by high performance thin layer chromatography (HPTLC)/FID and GC-MS. The oil was found to be rich in neutral lipids (96.9% of total lipids) and low in polar lipids (3.1% of total lipids). The neutral lipid fract...

The rise and fall of the groundwater level can drive air flow in vadose zone. In turn, interact with water flow. When unconfined aquifer is covered by a low-permeability media, coupling more obvious. this study, conceptual model established for zone response to rapid fluctuations table. Water injection drainage experiments are conducted double-layered sand column thick layer (80.5 cm) coarse th...

The essential oil of catnip, Nepeta cataria L., contains two isomers of nepetalactone, E,Z-and Z,E-nepetalactone, and was tested for repellent activity to adult male German cockroaches, Blattella germanica (L.), in a choice-test arena. The two isomers of nepetalactone were purified by using preparative thin-layer chromatography and tested for behavioral activity in the choice-test arena. Signif...

the main problemswith the use of fossil fuels is the restrictions on their access and the detrimental consequences of their use which causes a threat to human health and quality of life. consequently, the use of other energy sources has become necessary. renewable energy as a permanent and clean energy source is an answer to this problem. one such energy source includes photovoltaic solar energ...

abstract our previous studies showed that various extracts of persian shallot (allium hirtifolium) have anti-angiogenic effects. this study has been undertaken to isolate and identify the major effective anti-angiogeneic sub-fraction of shallot. after preparation of the 50% hydroalcoholic extract of shallot bulbs, the extract was successively fractionated into n-hexane, ethyl acetate, n-butanol...

In this study, some properties and antioxidant capacity of anchovy (Engraulis encrasicholus) by-product protein films with added 0.5, 1.0 and 1.5% of thyme essential oil were investigated. The films with thyme essential oil had higher elongation at break, water vapour permeability and oxygen permeability, lower solubility and tensile strength than control film (p<0.05). The incorporation of thy...

Major components of two tea-tree oil samples were identified using thin layer and gas-liquid chromatography (TLC and GLC). Using a TLC-bioautographic technique, the tea-tree oils, terpinen-4-ol, alpha-terpineol and alpha-pinene were found to be active against Staphylococcus aureus, Staph. epidermidis and Propionibacterium acnes whereas cineole was inactive against these organisms. The MIC value...

The skin's outer layer of stratum corneum, which is a thin tissue containing multilamellar lipid bilayers, is the main barrier to drug delivery to the skin. To increase skin permeability, our previous work has shown large enhancement of transdermal permeation using a pore-forming peptide, magainin, which was formulated with N-lauroyl sarcosine (NLS) in 50% ethanol-in-PBS. Mechanistic analysis s...
