Excoecaria agallocha LINN (Euphorbiaceae) is distributed on seashores and edge-mangroves throughout tropical Africa, Asia, and northwest Australia. The Excoecaria genus is well known to contain skin irritants, generally called irritant Excoecaria factors. The bark and wood of this tree have been used in traditional medicines for flatulence in Thailand. The resinous wood including the latex of E...

Background and objectives: Persian scholars such as Avicenna and Zakariya al-Razi have pointed out many uses for henna oil. The present study aimed to propose a method for standardization of this oil. Methods: The luteolin content has been evaluated quantitively by HPTLC method to standardize the henna oil. The oil sample was applied on silicagel plate and the ...

abstract balanced nutrition and soil organic mater are among most important factors affecting yield and quality of grape (vitis vinifera cv.peykani). humic acid as an organic acid derived from humus and other organic sources, in accompany with zinc, and acetic acid can reduce deficiency symptoms in grape. to study the effects of zinc, humic acid and acetic acid on yield and yield components, an...

developing simple, sensitive and selective sensing systems for dopamine is important due to its biological significance. in this work, a silver nanoparticles-modified carbon paste electrode (agnps-cpe) has been constructed and used to detect of dopamine (da) in the simultaneous presence of ascorbic acid (aa) and uric acid (ua) at neutral ph 7.0 by cyclic voltammetry. the modified electrode show...

nano silica sulfuric acid as a solid acid, was described to be an effective catalyst for one-pot three-component reaction of kojic acid, aryl aldehydes and indoles for the preparation of 2-substituted aryl (indolyl) kojic acid derivatives. the catalyst was prepared by combination of chlorosulfonic acid to nano silica gel. the size of nanoparticles were observed with sem.all prepared compounds w...

background & aim: purslane (portulaca oleracea l.), belongs to the portulacaceace family, grows in many parts of iran. results of previous studies were indicated purslane is a rich source of essential fatty acids of omega-3 and omega-6.  portulaca oleracea is a widespread weed, being the eighth common plants of the world. the aim of current study was to compare the essential fatty acids com...

fabrication and electrochemical characterization of a sensor for the determination of epinephrine (ep), uric acid (ua) and folic acid (fa) is described. the sensor  was prepared using carbon paste electrode (cpe) modified with 3,4-dihydroxybenzaldehyde-2,4-dinitrophenylhydrazone (ddp) and carbon nanotubes (cnts), which makes the modified electrode highly sensitive for the electrochemical detect...
