Antibiotic resistance continues to pose a significant problem in the management of bacterial infections, despite advances in antimicrobial chemotherapy and supportive care. Here, we suggest a simple, inexpensive, and easy-to-perform assay to screen antimicrobial compounds from natural products or synthetic chemical libraries for their potential to work in tandem with the available antibiotics a...

Flavonoids are rich in Juglans regia L. leaves. They have potent antioxidant properties, which have been related to regulating immune function and enhancing anticancer activity. Herein, qualitative and quantitative determination of flavonoids from J. regia leaves was carried out using high performance liquid chromatography coupled with tandem mass spectrometry with electrospray ionization and n...

The present study was focused to evaluate the phytochemical screening and biochemical estimation of ethanolic aqueous extracts edible nuts Arachis hypogea, Anacardium occidentale, Prunus dulcis Juglans regia. showed presence carbohydrate, protein, phenol tannin, flavonoid, glycoside, steroid, alkaloid in all studied nuts. quantification A. hypogeae, P. J. regia were performed determine total am...

soil and sludge samples based on it, in addition to the total elemental concentrations (Vercoutere et al., 1995; It is important to evaluate different digestion methods to accurately Quevauviller et al., 1993). In many countries (excluding determine elemental concentrations in soils. Three commonly used digestion procedures, hotplate aqua regia, microwave aqua regia, and the USA), this procedur...

Juglans species have considerable ecological and economic value worldwide. In China, Wenwan walnuts have been collected by aristocrats and noblemen for more than 2000 years. As a diversity center of Asian Juglans, five species are widely distributed in China. The most famous of these is Mahetao (J. hopeiensis), which is an uncharacterized species that is mostly cultivated. Wild J. hopeiensis in...

OBJECTIVES One strategy for the treatment of diabetes is inhibition of pancreatic α- amylase. Plants contains different chemical constituents with potential for inhibition of α-amylase and hence maybe used as therapeutic. MATERIALS AND METHODS Urtica dioica and Juglans regia Linn were tested for α-amylase inhibition. Different concentrations of leaf aqueous extracts were incubated with enzyme...

UNLABELLED PREMISE OF THE STUDY Microsatellite loci were developed for a monotypic species endemic to subtropical China, Cyclocarya paliurus, to help infer the evolutionary histories of ancient monotypic genera in subtropical China. • METHODS AND RESULTS Using the Fast Isolation by AFLP of Sequences COntaining repeats (FIASCO) protocol, 28 primer sets were identified in two wild population...

The current study was undertaken to evaluate in vitro the antileishmanial activity of three plants growing wild in Algeria : Juglans regia, Lawsonia inermis and Salvia officinalis. The hydroalcoholic extracts of these plants were tested on the growth of the promastigotes of Leishmania major. The plant extract effects were compared with three controls : CRL1 composed of 1 ml RPMI inoculated with...

In this study, the effect of solvents, HCl and aqua regia at room temperature, on the etching behavior of ITO film was investigated. A higher etching rate was obtained in aqua regia than in HCl. However, via XPS analysis, it was found that there was more surface residual byproduct in aqua regia etchant than in HCl. The surface concentration (ratio of chlorine to indium) was 7.2 and 0.38 in aqua...
