Chemical composition of the essential oil obtained from the aerial parts of Scrophularia amplexicaulis Benth. was analyzed, for the first time, by the gas chromatography/mass spectrometry (GC-MS) and gas chromatography/flame ionization detection (GC-FID). A total yield of 3 mg of essential oil per100 g of plant dry mass was obtained, and 27 compounds were identified, representing 97.7% of total...

Attenuated antioxidant activities, irregular cytokines expressions and reduced regulatory T cells, are strongly associated with the pathogenesis of systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE). Despite the well-established beneficial effects of cystamine on lupus-prone mice, the extent to which cystamine contributes to antioxidant activity and the reduction of regulatory T cells has seldom been investiga...

among the environmental stresses, salinity is a major limiting factor in world legumes production is considered. in this study, sodium chloride and salicylic acid interaction on growth parameters were investigated in greenhouse with factorial arrangement in randomized complete block design with three replications. the plant consisted of three cultivars of lentil (kimiya, kermanshah and gachsara...

objective(s): the purpose of this study was to investigate the role of chloride channel protein 2 (clc-2) in glutamate-induced apoptosis in the retinal ganglion cell line (rgc-5). materials and methods: rgc-5 cells were treated with 1 mm glutamate for 24 hr. the expression of clc-2, bax, and bcl-2 was detected by western blot analysis. cell survival and apoptosis were measured by 3-(4,5-dimethy...

results the hemostasis time for the ferric chloride concentration group was significantly less than for the control group (p < 0.001). materials and methods in this animal model study, 60 male wistar rats were used. an incision, 2 cm long and 0.5 cm deep was made on rat skin and the hemostasis time was recorded using ferric chloride at different concentrations (5%, 10%, 15%, 25%, and 50%) and t...

results in all the groups, complete hemostasis occurred. hemostasis times of different concentrations of zinc chloride were significantly less than that of the control group (p < 0.001). objectives this study aimed to compare haemostatic effect of zinc chloride and simple suturing to control external bleeding. materials and methods in this animal model study, 60 male wistar rats were used. an i...

the solvent free route for the synthesis of diaryl sulfoxides from arenes and thionyl chloride in the presence of lewis acids such as aluminum chloride and ferric chloride on silica gel are described.

abstract heavy metals are the important pollution which there is in the aquatic ecosystems. today, with advances in technology have increased the pollution therefore it is important to assessment the risks. the aim of this study was acute toxicity effects of mercury chloride, lead chloride and zinc chloride in silver carp fish. in this study there were 5 treatments for lead chloride and mercury...

Methanolic and aqueous extracts of Dendrophthoe falcata Linn. leaves which belongs to the Loranthaceae family, were evaluated through DPPH (1, 1-diphenyl -2-picryl-hydrazyl), antilipid peroxidation and nitric oxide scavenging methods to assess the antioxidant activity. Methanolic and aqueous extracts of Dendrophthoe falcata leaves were also evaluated for their anti-inflammatory activity by carr...
