Alcoholic extract of pericarp showed significant protection against FeSO4 induced lipid peroxidation, as compared with whole native nut and seeds. Mechanism of action may be through metal chelation or activation of endogenous antioxidant enzymes, because the extract did not show hydroxyl and super oxide anion scavenging property. Further in vitro experiments against FeSO4, it did not maintain t...

In this dataset we integrated figures related to bacterial transformation using pBI121 plasmid and complementary analysis for magnetic nanoparticles (MNPs) characterizations. The structural map of pBI121 plasmid was drawn by Vector NTI software using the complete sequence of binary vector pBI121. Escherichia coli bacteria transformed using pBI121 plasmid and were grown on the selection media co...

The stimulation of microsomal lipid peroxidation by FeSO4 and cysteine has been investigated. Although both FeSO4 and cysteine alone promoted an increase in malonaldehyde production, when these agents were added together to microsomes the resultant level of malonaldehyde was greater than the sum of the amounts formed by these pro-oxidants when acting individually. A further indication of an int...

The effect of foliar spray of different chemicals on the sorghum cultivar KH-333 in four type nutrient medium viz; normal pH, high pH, high bicarbonate (10 mM) and, high pH (8.0) &high bicarbonate (10 mM) on biochemical parameters and the recovery of iron chlorosis in fodder sorghum was examined. The effect of iron chlorosis and sulphydryl compounds on the antioxidant enzymes and active iron co...

The effectiveness of EDTA compounds on iron fortificants for potential use in Egyptian balady bread was tested in sixty Sprague-Dawley weanling male rats by the haemoglobin regeneration efficiency (HRE) method. To confirm HRE-derived findings, eight groups of ten animals were repleted with a modified American Institute of Nutrition (1977; AIN) 76A diet, fortified with ferric phosphate, electrol...

A variety of compounds which bind to Fe have substantial reductions in absorption when co-administered with Fe compounds. The binding of both Fe2+ and Fe3+ ions to pteroylmonoglutamic acid and the pteroylmonoglutamate dianion was examined in vitro. In dimethylsulphoxide (DMSO) alone, pteroylmonoglutamate formed a 2:1 (pteroylmonoglutamate:Fe3+ ion) complex. However, in DMSO-aqueous Bis-Tris buf...

Fe fortification of centrally manufactured and frequently consumed condiments such as bouillon cubes could help prevent Fe deficiency in developing countries. However, Fe compounds that do not cause sensory changes in the fortified product, such as ferric pyrophosphate (FePP), exhibit low absorption in humans. Tetra sodium pyrophosphate (NaPP) can form soluble complexes with Fe, which could inc...

The aim of the present study was to assess the effect of iron and copper consumption on weight gain and development of oxidative stress in adipose tissue of rats. Control rats obtained pure drinking water. Iron-treated groups of animals obtained FeSO4•12H2O with drinking water in concentrations of 3 and 6 mg/l, while copper-treated rats obtained CuSO4 in concentrations of 4.88 and 9.76 mg/l. Th...

This experiment was conducted to investigate the effects of iron from an amino acid complex (Availa-Fe) on the iron status of neonatal and suckling piglets. A total of 24 gestating sows (Landrace×Large White) were randomly allocated to three dietary treatments. The control diet contained 80 mg kg Fe from ferrous sulfate heptahydrate (FeSO4⋅7H2O), while the two experimental diets were supplement...

degradation of acrylic water base color from synthetic wastewater by the fenton process was performed. experiments were conducted on the sample containing 100 and 400 mg/l of acrylic water base color. the study was performed for searching optimum values of feso4 and h2o2 concentration, ph and temperature. the h2o2 requirement seems to be related to initial cod of the sample. feso4/ h2o2 ratios ...
