Background: Listeria monocytogenes is an important Gram-positive disease-causing bacterium existing in milk and dairy products. Inhibitory effects of Mentha pulegium essential oil at concentrations of 0.03, 0.015, and 0.0075% on growth of L. monocytogenes were studied in Iranian white cheese during 60 days of storage. Methods: Essential oil of M. pulegium plant, collected from north of Iran,...

This study compares the performance of two types capacitive devices, indium tin oxide-aluminum oxide-zirconia aluminum oxide-silicon (IAZAOS) and oxide-hafnium (IAHAOS), as silicon-oxide-nitride-oxide-silicon (SONOS) non-volatile memory (NVM) total dose ultraviolet radiation (UV TD) sensors. Results show that IAZAOS with zirconia oxide charge-trapping layer outperforms IAHAOS hafnium for a UV T...

The molecular structures and reactivity of tantalum oxide-supported metal oxide (V2O5, Nb2O5, CrO3, MoO3, WO3, and Re2O7) catalysts were determined by Raman spectroscopy and the methanol oxidation chemical probe reaction, respectively. The metal oxides form a twodimensional surface metal oxide overlayer on the tantalum oxide support. Under ambient conditions, the hydrated surface metal oxide sp...

objective(s):the neuropeptide calcitonin gene-related peptide (cgrp) has long been postulated to play an integral role in the pathophysiology of migraine. earlier studies showed that cgrp can stimulate the synthesis and release of nitric oxide (no) and cytokines from trigeminal ganglion glial cells. the purpose of this study was to determine the effect of 17β-estradiol in regulation of cgrp exp...

Abstract This study was performed to investigate the phytochemical profile, and the, in vitro, and, silico, antioxidant antibacterial properties of essential oil (EO) extracted from Origanum compactum . EO screening examined by gas chromatography coupled mass spectrometry. The potential, vitro , assessed using reducing power(FRAP), free 2,2 diphenylpicrylhydrazyl (DPPH) radical scavenging total...

Satureja calamintha nepeta (S. calamintha) has a history of successful use in the treatment bacterial and fungal diseases. The present study was designed to investigate chemical composition antioxidant antimicrobial activities essential oils extracted from wild S. (EOSS) domesticated (EOSD) for comparison purposes. Hydrodistillation used extract (EOs), while GC/MS analysis. Antioxidant activity...

to study the effects of nano-zinc oxide and seed inoculation with brady rhizobium and plant growth promoting rhizobacteria on yield and some agronomic traits of soybean, a factorial experiment based on randomized complete block design with three replications was conducted in 2013 at the research farm of the islamic azad university, ardabil branch. treatments were foliar application of nano-zinc...
