background & aim: salvia spinosa l. is a perennial shrub and aromatic plant belongs to the family lamiaceae. s. spinosa grows wild in some districts of iran. the aim of this study was to identify of the chemical components of s. spinosa in isfahan climatic conditions. experimental: the aerial parts of the plants were collected from isfahan province in 2014. the essential oil was extracted ...

in this study, chemical composition and functional properties of red bean, chickpea, lentil and canellini bean were evaluated. our results revealed that chickpea had the highest protein (43.4%) and fat (5.17%) content and lentil, red bean and canellini bean were the following ones. the isoelectric point of all the samples were determined as about ph=4 but other than lentil, the remaining sample...

The effects of microwave-assisted alkali pre-treatment on pellets' characteristics and enzymatic saccharification for bioethanol production using lignocellulosic biomass of canola straw and oat hull were investigated. The ground canola straw and oat hull were immersed in distilled water, sodium hydroxide and potassium hydroxide solutions at two concentrations (0.75% and 1.5% w/v) and exposed to...

Background Many bacteria and archaea possess a defense system called clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeats (CRISPR) associated proteins (CRISPR-Cas system) against invaders such as phages or plasmids. This system has not been demonstrated in Helicobacter pylori. The numbers of spacer in CRISPR array differ among bacterial strains and can be used as a genetic marker for bacte...

plant litter is an important factor for soil conservation and sustainability that could modify soil chemical properties and increase the plant biomass production. the aim of this research was to compare plant litter chemical composition and its effects on soil properties in three species including hordeum bulbosum, poa bulbosa, bromus tectorum. first, soil samples were taken in the depth of 0-3...

Background and Objectives: Sodium nitrite and potassium nitrite have been traditionally used for inhibition of Clostridium botulinum and also as an agent to stabilize the color of meat products; however, usage of these additives at high levels could lead to toxicity and cancer originating from the formation of nitrosamines. Nowadays, application of natural preservatives in order to reduce the n...

In the present investigation, three different solid wastes namely almond green hull, eggplant hull, and moss were initially treated and used as adsorbents for the adsorption of strontium ion from aqueous solutions. Adsorbent types and chemical treatments are proved to have effective roles on the adsorption of Sr(II) ion. Among the three adsorbents, almond green hull demonstrated strong affinity...
