the subject handled in this study is the determination of antioxidant activities of extracts obtained from the urginea maritima (l.) baker plant’s leaves and tubers. extractions which were obtained using various solvents as methanol, ethanol, acetone and benzine. the antioxidant activity of the extracts was determined using β-karotene-linoleic acid system. moreover, the free radical scavenging ...

background and objectives:drimia maritima (l.) stearn also known as squill is a medicinally important plant that has been used for various ailments such as dropsy, respiratory disorders, jaundice and epilepsy from ancient times. proscillaridin a is identified as one of the most effective compounds in the plant with remarkable pharmacological features including efficacy against congestive heart ...

An improved purification procedure for Thermotoga maritima RNA-polymerase holoenzyme was developed. The enzyme is highly active with poly dAT or T7 phage DNA as template. DNA gyrase was found to be a side product of this RNA-polymerase purification. The genes for the large subunits beta and beta' of RNA-polymerase were cloned and sequenced. The phylogenetic position of T.maritima within the bac...

This research aimed to assess the anti-inflammatory and antioxidant potential of methanol extract Wilckia maritima, a plant belonging family Brassicaceae, which is enriched with natural antioxidants. Qualitative phytochemical studies showed presence numerous compounds including glycosides, phenols, triterpenoids, GC-MS revealed 35 bioactive components, n-hexadecanoic acid (26.96%), 9,12,15 octa...

Thermotoga maritima is the most thermophilic eubacterium currently known and grows up to 90 degrees C by a fermentative metabolism in which H2, CO2, and organic acids are end products. It was shown that the production of H2 is catalyzed by a single hydrogenase located in the cytoplasm. The addition of tungsten to the growth medium was found to increase both the cellular concentration of the hyd...
