Red Amaranth (Amaranthus tricolor) and green Amaranth (Amaranthus viridis) are two very important leafy vegetables consumed in most parts of India, not only for their flavours, but also for their pharmacological activities. The cooking processes are different in the different part of this country, and therefore, the present study was designed to analyze their in vitro antioxidant profile before...

An uncommon coexistence of circumscribed hyperpigmentation and hypopigmentation, in close proximity to each other, is described in a 17 years old patient with various other cogenital defects, such as dysmorphic facial appearance, severe kyphoscoliosis, delayed motor development, epileptic seizures, and mental retardation. We suggest the combination of hyper- and hypopigmented cutaneous lesions ...

Amaranthus Tricolor L. (red amaranth) and Viridis (Green are Amaranthaceae members, widely cultivated in Asia consumed as a leafy vegetable many parts of the world. This study deal with nutritional functional, biochemical characterization A. viridis . Single-factor experiments Box Behnken Design (BBD) were used to optimize extraction process for phenolic compound from The BBD shows that 11.87mg...

cyclotides are small disulfide-rich proteins that have the unusual feature of a cyclic backbone. cyclotides have a range of interesting biological activities and are found in a variety of tropical plants from the rubiaceae, violaceae, cucurbitaceae and fabaceae families. we have cloned and characterized cyclotides in viola modesta, a viola species native to western asia, which was collected fro...

1. We evaluated the potential for three species of deciduous-forest herbs to exploit seasonal periods of direct irradiance. In particular, we investigated the importance of photosynthetic acclimation as a mechanism for shade-tolerant herbs to utilize direct light reaching the forest floor before canopy expansion in the spring and after canopy leaf drop in the autumn. 2. We measured the photosyn...
