conclusions the results of this study show that the beneficial effect of lactobacillus casei is related to its metabolites. a formulated gel shows a significant antidermatophytosis activity compared to clotrimazole. results the results showed the same effect of the probiotic extract against 4 pathogens; however, the greatest average zone of inhibition was measured 34 mm against t. rubrum. the m...

in the present work, magnetic nanocomposites of the multi-walled carbon nanotubes (mwcnts) decorated with magnesium ferrite (mgfe2o4) nanoparticles were synthesized successfully by citrate-gel method. the shape, structure, size, and properties of the as-synthesized sample were characterized by fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (ftir), x-ray diffraction pattern (xrd), transmission electron...

lallemantia royleana (balangu) is a well known iranian medicinal plant that its seed mucilage has many applications in modern pharmacology. plant mucilage traditionally was used as a gel supplement, and natural matrix for sustained release of drugs. but it seems that these compounds are not a simple additive and also have many undiscovered pharmacological properties. in this research, the anest...

BACKGROUND In Iranian traditional medicine, gum obtained from Astragalus gummifer and some other species of Astragalus was used as analgesic agent. OBJECTIVE In this study, we investigated the antinociceptive effect of several concentrations (125, 250, and 500 μg/kg body weight) of Astragalus gummifer gum (AGG) on thermal and acetic acid induced pain in mice. MATERIALS AND METHODS AGG was d...

Persimmon fruits are often affected by large postharvest losses due to rapid ripening and the early onset of senescence. To reduce such in fresh fruits, application hydrocolloid-based edible coatings was conducted. Therefore, a plant gum, tragacanth gum (TCG), applied persimmon at 0.5%, 1%, 1.5% TCG concentrations, stored 20 ± 2 °C 80–85% relative humidity for days (analysis 0, 4th, 8th, 12th, ...

this article describes the preparation and analysis of nano hydroxyapatite (ha) films on stainless steel 316l through sol-gel technique. the process started with preparation of a nitrate and phosphate sol. after aging the sol for 24 h at room temperature a ss316 substrate was dip-coated and heat-treated at 350 to 450 °c for different times in air. the coating phase and structure on substrate we...

piroxicam is a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory agent which has an extensive use in rheumatic disorders. since its skin penetration is still a subject for research, the aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of dimethyl sulfoxide on percutaneous penetration of piroxicam gel formulation through skin. in this study, as a model, two types of 0.5% piroxicam new gels, so called red and green ge...
