Skin disease was a that attacked the surface of body, and caused by various agents, one bacteria. One plants had antibacterial activity jengkol leaf (Archidendron pauciflorum Benth.) I.C. Nielsen because it contained compounds properties previously been studied other researchers against Staphylococcus aureus Escherichia coli So researcher interested in researching on leaves epidermidis Propioni...

This study was carried out to determine the effects of supplementing different levels (0, 0.5 and 1% of buffered rumen fluid) of methanolic extract of pomegranate peel, on rumen fermentation kinetics of four oil seed meals (soybean meal, cotton seed meal, rapeseed meal and sunflower seed meal), using in vitro gas production technique. The samples were incubated in syringes containing rumen liqu...

Ageing in Place, which is also referred to as Ageing at Home (Callahan 1993; Andrews et al. 2007; Rojo-Pérez et al. 2001), living with autonomy and independence, is an expression which accurately summarises healthy (Bartlett and Peel 2005), active (World Health Organization 2002) and/or successful ageing (Rowe and Kahn 1997) of the population. These concepts require a broad definition and are f...

This study aimed to compare the antioxidant content and antioxidant capacity of pulp and peel of two varieties of pomelo fruit (Tambun White and Tambun Pink). Antioxidants including total phenolic content, total flavonoid content and ascorbic acid content were determined using Folin-Ciocalteu reagent assay, aluminium chloride colorimetric assay and AOAC method, respectively. Antioxidant capacit...

Activated carbon is an amorphous carbon chain which has extremely extended surface area. High surface area of activated carbon is due to the porous structure. Activated carbon, using a variety of materials such as coal and cellulosic materials; can be obtained by both physical and chemical methods. The prepared activated carbon can be used for decolorize, deodorize and also can be used for remo...

BACKGROUND The present study investigated the difference between therapeutic responses of hot and cold temperament patients (based on traditional Persian medicine) with ulcerative colitis to pomegranate peel extract. METHODS Seventy-eight patients with moderate ulcerative colitis based on Lichtiger Colitis Activity Index (LCAI) criteria were randomized to receive an aqueous extract of the Pun...

This study compares the abilities of four low-cost materials: peels of peas, broad bean, and medlar, respectively and fig leaves, to remove cadmium from aqueous solutions. Kinetic data and equilibrium sorption isotherms were measured in batch conditions. Kinetics of cadmium sorption was contact time, initial cadmium concentration and sorbent type dependent. The results also showed that the kine...

Pectin derived from plant waste sources is currently focused as an economical and eco-friendly approach. Optimization of pectin extraction from muskmelon peel by response surface methodology (RSM) was investigated in this study. Box-Behnken Design (BBD) was used to identify the optimal level of the extraction variables such as time, pH and temperature. A second-order model equation for pectin e...

Antioxidant activities of wampee peel extracts using five different solvents (ethanol, hexane, ethyl acetate, butanol and water) were determined by using in-vitro antioxidant models including total antioxidant capability, 1,1-diphenyl-2-picryl hydrazyl (DPPH) radical scavenging activity, reducing power, and superoxide scavenging activity. Ethyl acetate fraction (EAF) exhibited the highest antio...

In Genetic Programming (GP) and most other evolutionary computing approaches, the knowledge learned during the evolutionary processing is implicitly encoded in the population. A small family of approaches, known as Estimation of Distribution Algorithms, learn this knowledge directly in the form of probability distributions. In this research, we proposed a new approach for program synthesis – Pr...
