In this study, plant oils of Hypericum perforatum, Sesamum indicum, Nigella sative were investigated for their in vitro antibacterial activity against Vibrio anguillarum and Lactococcus garvieae. Antibacterial activity was found to show with oil of Nigella sative. It was determined formed on the diameter of inhibition (inhibition zone: 18 mm) of the oil against Vibrio anguillarum and Lactococcu...

Evaluation of Genetic Diversity for Phonological and Grain Yield-Related Traits Sesame (Sesamum indicum L.) in the Dashtestan Region with Multivariate Statistical Methods

An unstable anthraquinone was isolated from hairy root cultures of Sesamum indicum after preventing light throughout all experimental procedures. The structure of the (Z)-isomer of a previously isolated anthraquinone was determined to be 2-[(Z)-4-methylpenta-1,3-dien-1-yl]anthraquinone by spectroscopic methods. This compound was readily isomerized to the known (E)-isomer under light.

Two anthraquinone derivatives, named anthrasesamones D and E, were isolated from the roots of Sesamum indicum. Their respective structures were determined to be 1,2,4-trihydroxy-3-(4-methylpent-3-enyl)anthraquinone and 1,2-dihydroxy-3-(4-methylpent-3-enyl)anthraquinone on the basis of spectroscopic evidence.

A new iridoid glucoside, sesinoside (1), was isolated from the seedlings of Sesamum indicum. The structure of 1 was elucidated by spectroscopic analyses and by methanolysis of 1, which produced the known compounds, phlorigidosides C (2) and (6Z)-foliamenthic acid methyl ester (3). This is the first report of an iridoid glucoside with 3.

Three very different records are combined here to reconstruct the evolution of environments in the Cantabrian Region during the Upper Pleistocene, covering ~35.000 years. Two of these records come from Antoliñako Koba (Bizkaia, Spain), an exceptional prehistoric deposit comprising 9 chrono-cultural units (Aurignacian to Epipaleolithic). The palaeoecological signal of small-vertebrate communitie...

BACKGROUND Iron nanoparticles (FeNPs) have got many biomedical and health applications because of biocompatible and nontoxic nature to humans. OBJECTIVE To synthesize the FeNPs using natural sources. MATERIALS AND METHODS In this study, simple and economical procedure was adopted for FeNPs synthesis. Sesame seeds were processed to obtain seed extract as a biological material for FeNPs produ...

background: piper guineense (pg) and sesamum indicum (si) have been shown to be rich sources of antioxidants and other health benefits; hence, we evaluated the impact of its consumption in hypercholesterolemic model on lipid metabolism. methods: forty-eight animals were divided into eight groups of six rats each. rats were given cholesterol (40 mg/0.3ml), pg and si extract (100 and 200 mg/kg), ...
