BACKGROUND Recent epidemiological evidence has shown that chronic use of aspirin decreases susceptibility to bowel cancer. Animal studies have shown that sulphotransferase inhibitors coadministered with sulphation activated carcinogens dramatically reduce the incidence of cancer. AIMS To investigate the effect of the main aspirin breakdown product, salicylic acid, on the P and M isoforms of p...

Plum fruit has a short shelf life with a rapid deterioration in quality after harvest. The primary goal of this study is to investigate and compare the effect of putrescine and salicylic acid on quality properties and antioxidant activity of plum during storage. The plum fruits (cv. 'Santa Rosa') were harvested at the mature ripe stage, and dipped in different concentrations of putrescine (1, 2...

in order to evaluate the effect of different concentrations of postharvest salicylic acid and calcium chloride on shelf life, quality characteristics and antioxidant activity of peach fruit cv. amesden, an experiment was conducted as factorial based on randomized completely design with three replications. fruits were harvested at the commercial ripening stage, and fruits were immerged in differ...

ABSTRACT Plants grown under salinity are subject to osmotic and ionic stresses that cause several physiological changes, so searching for strategies minimize the deleterious effects is essential development of irrigated agriculture. In this context, objective was evaluate foliar applications salicylic acid on mitigation salt stress photosynthetic pigments chlorophyll a fluorescence soursop cv. ...

Catechol-type chitosan resin and salicylic acid-type chitosan resin were easily synthesized for use in estimating the adsorption behavior of 34 elements at pH 1 - 7 in aquatic media. The catechol-type chitosan resin could adsorb Cu(II) at pH 3 - 7, In(III) at pH 4 - 6, Pb(II) and lanthanoids at pH 5 - 7, and U(VI) at pH 4 - 7 more effectively than the salicylic acid-type chitosan resin and the ...

to evaluate the response of wheat to drought stress and salicylic acid, this field experiment was carried out at the experimental farm of college of agriculture, university of shahid bahonar kerman, iran in 2011-2012, in a split-plot arrangement using completely randomized block design with four replications. main plot was irrigation (normal irrigation and cut off at flowering) and sub plot was...

The effects of varying irrigation intervals (I) and foliar application of salicylic acid (M) on morphological and physiological traits of Catharanthus roseus L. were studied in a factorial experiment based on a randomized complete block design with three replications. The experimental treatments consisted of four irrigation intervals [2 days (I1), 4 days (I2), 6 d...

Effect of salicylic acid combined with glutamin on rose (Rosa Baccara) cut flowers was studied. The study was conducted in a factorial arrangement, carried out in a complete randomized design. The factors were Salicylic acid (0,1, 2 and 4 mM) and glutamin (0, 1.5 and 3 mM).The effects of treatments on the total chlorophyll content, ACC-Oxidase activity, anthocyanin leakage, membrane stability a...

the objective of this research was to evaluate the effect of different concentration of salicylic acid on enhancement germination characteristics of sanguisorba minor l. under salt and drought stress. the experimental design was factorial arranged in a completely randomized block design with four replications. treatment were combination of 5 levels of salt and drought stress, separately (0, -0....
