seaweeds have caused an emerging interest in the biomedical area, mainly due to their contents of bioactive substances which show great potential as anti-inflammatory, anti-microbial, anti-viral and anti-tumoral drugs. despite the diversity in quality and quantity of the mediterranean tunisian coast flora, with its large contains of marine organisms and seaweeds, most of them have not yet been ...

the properties of alkaline sulfite anthraquinone (as/aq) pulp from old corrugated container (occ)was studied. in each trial 100 grams (based on dry weigth) of occ and 18% active alkali was used.three levels of anthraquinone (0.0.1 and 0.2% based on dry weigth of the occ) and two pulpingtimes (120 and 150 minutes at maximum pulping temperature) were applied. pulping temperature,na2so3/naoh ratio...

the present research has been conducted to investigate the soda and soda-anthraquiuone pulping from whole kenaf (v36). in this respect, anatomical characteristics of kenaf bast and core fibers as well as the soda and soda-aq pulp properties produced at four sodium hydroxide concentrations, namely 25, 30, 35 and 40 (g/lit), have been evaluated. the pulping results indicated that pulp yield and k...

Using UV-vis spectrophotometic method, the formation constants for interaction of Cd2+(aq) andCo2+(aq) ions with L-Alanine were experimentally studied at pH = 4.1 ± 0.01 (50mM of potassiumhydrogen phthalate buffer), ionic strength of 0.1M potassium nitrate and at 5 differenttemperatures 15,20, 25,30 and 35°C. The optical absorption spectra of mixtures containingconsidered cations and L-Alanine ...

Antimalarial drugs with the 4-aminoquinoline scaffold such as the important drugs, chloroquine (CQ) and amodiaquine (AQ), have been used to prevent and treat malaria for many years. The importance of these drugs is related to their simple usage, high efficacy, affordability, and cost-effectiveness of their synthesis. In recent years, with the spread of parasite resistance to CQ and cross-resist...

There is a need for brief screening instruments for autistic spectrum disorders (ASD) that can be used by frontline healthcare professionals to aid in the decision as to whether an individual should be referred for a full diagnostic assessment. In this study we evaluated the ability of a short form of the Autism Spectrum Quotient (AQ) questionnaire, the 10 item AQ-10, to correctly classify indi...
