Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease is a spectrum of fat-associated liver conditions that can result in end-stage liver disease and the need for liver transplantation. Simple steatosis, or fatty liver, occurs early in non-alcoholic fatty liver disease and may progress to non-alcoholic steatohep...

Background & Aim: Natural compounds can prolong the shelf life of food by inhibiting the growth of pathogenic and spoilage microorganisms. The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of Sheng and Ziziphora alcoholic extracts (at concentrations of 500, 1000 and 1500 ppm) on physico chemical properties and microbial quality of yogurt. Experimental: </str...

Regarding the therapeutic properties of Nigella sativa (NS), the effects of the plant hydro - alcoholic extract on learning, memory and brain tissues oxidative damage were investigated in penthylenetetrazole (PTZ) - induced repeated seizures. There were 4 experimental groups including: 1- control group; received saline, 2- PTZ group ; received saline and PTZ (50 mg/Kg, i.p) , 3-PTZ- NS 200 and ...

Tea is one of the most popular non-alcoholic beverages consumed worldwide. Numerous bioactive constituents of tea were confirmed to possess healthy benefits via the mechanisms of regulating gene expressions or protein activities. However, a complete interacting profile between tea bioactive compounds (TBCs) and their target genes is lacking, which put an obstacle in the study of healthy functio...

This paper focuses on determining the antifungal potential of plants traditionally used to treat infections. Five (5) were collected. The anti-Candida albicans activity was evaluated by double dilution method in tilted tubes with aqueous and hydroethanolic extracts different plants. results showed that 70% ethanolic more active than for all extract Terminalia ivorensis (MFC = 1.56 mg/mL) most t...
