In present study, a series of isoxazole derivatives synthesized were evaluated for antimicrobial activities by disc diffusion method. Some compounds of the series exhibited promising antibacterial and antifungal activity compared to standard drugs. The minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC’s) was determined against each organism. The compounds were tested for their in-vitro antioxidant activity...

A series of new 3-Aryl-4-(4-methoxyphenyl)-1-phenyl-4,5-dihydro-1H-pyrazole-5-carbonitriles (1) were screened in vitro for their antibacterial and antifungal activities against four different organisms. The minimal inhibitory concentration (MIC’s) was determined against each organism. The compounds were tested for their antioxidant activity and reducing power ability. The effect of substitution...

Background and Objectives: There is a profound inclination among people toward consumption of herbs and herbal products. Some of these products are harmful while health-promoting potentials of some others should be discovered. In the present study the antibacterial, antioxidant, acute and subchronic and cancer cell toxicity of methanolic and aqueous extracts of Rosa damascena ...

background: the lamiaceae family has been tried to ameliorate symptoms of stomachache and dysmenorrheal in traditional medicine. the extracts and essential oils obtained from these plants have recently attracted much scientific attention. the essential oils of some plants belonging to this family have also been used in food preservation. methods: this study employed pharmaco-diagnostic methods ...

background and objectives: edible films and coatings are effective method for decreasing oxidation and increasing the shelf life of pistachios. the present study investigated the effect of an edible gelatin coating containing ascorbic acid (aa: 1% w/v) and propyl gallate (pg: 100 ppm) on the oxidative stability and sensory properties of roasted pistachio nuts. materials and methods: pistachios ...

background and objectives:alzheimer’s disease (ad) is a neurodegenerative disorder. nowadays, many investigations are performed to find new drugs for ad and medicinal plants are considered as one of the most important sources for developing new drugs. according to the role of oxidant agents and acetylcholinesterase enzyme (ache) in ad, plants with antioxidant and ache inhibition properties coul...

Numerous human diseases are linked to a biochemical condition known as oxidative stress (OS). Antioxidants are therefore becoming increasingly important as potential disease prevention and therapeutic agents. Since OS is a multi-stressor event, agents combining a range of different antioxidant properties, such as redox catalysis and metal binding, might be more effective and selective than mono...

The use of conventional contrast media for diagnostic purposes (in particular, Gd-containing and iodinated agents) causes a large number complications, the most common which is contrast-induced nephropathy. It has been shown that after exposure to agents, oxidative stress often occurs in patients, especially people suffering from various diseases. Antioxidants human body can diminish pathologic...
