in southeast asia, aedes aegypti (l.) has been incriminated as principal vector of dengue viruses and ae. albopictus as the secondary vector of dengue fever. therefore, the aim of this study was to investigate the effectiveness of three for-mula tions of pyrethrin derived from tanacetum cinerariaefolium against the dengue/dengue haemorrhagic fever vectors aedes aegypti and ae. albopictus in the...

carum carvi (cc) is a grassy plant which is believed to have several therapeutic effects, including anti-asthmatic properties. we have therefore studied the bronchodilatory and anticholinergic effects of this plant. the bronchodilatory effects of the aqueous extract (ae), macerated extract (me), essential oil (eo), and 4µm theophylline (t) in comparison with saline (s) were examined by their re...

Carum copticum is a grassy and annual plant which is believed to have several therapeutic effects, including anti-asthmatic properties. We have therefore studied the bronchodilatory and anticholinergic effects of 4 rnL aqueous extract (AE), 0.0 5 mL ethanol extract (EE), and 0.0 0 5 mL essential oil (EO) of Carum copticum and 1 rnL of a 5 mM solution of its main ingredient, thymol (T), in ...

Recently, research has progressively highlighted on clues from conventional use of herbal medicines to introduce new anticancer drugs. Aloe-emodin (AE) is a herbal drug with promising anticancer activity. Nevertheless, its clinical utility is handicapped by its low solubility. For the first time, this study aims to the fabrication of surface-functionalized polyethylene glycol liquid crystalline...

this paper deals with an inspection of defects including corrosion and leakage by acoustic emission (ae) in an oil tank floor. in contrast to intrusive methods such as magnetic flux leakage, eddy current or ultrasonic, there is no need to emptying and entering the tank in ae method in order to inspection. in this research ae investigation and ae source location is presented in detail. the resul...

Aloe-emodin (AE), a natural anthraquinone compound, has been reported to exhibit anticancer activity in various cancer cell lines and anti-inflammatory effects in murine macrophages. In the present study, we investigated the cancer chemopreventive effects of AE in an Apc-deficient Min mouse model. In the first experiment, male Min mice were fed a basal diet or diets containing 5 ppm AE and 10 p...

The genetic relationships of A genomes of Triticum urartu (Au) and Triticum monococcum (Am) in polyploid wheats are explored and quantified by AFLP fingerprinting. Forty-one accessions of A-genome diploid wheats, 3 of AG-genome wheats, 19 of AB-genome wheats, 15 of ABD-genome wheats, and 1 of the D-genome donor Ae. tauschii have been analysed. Based on 7 AFLP primer combinations, 423 bands were...
