The kinetics of the oxidative decolorization of amaranth with KBrO3 acidified by H2SO4 was followed up by monitoring the decrease of the absorbance of amaranth at max = 520 nm. The reaction was carried out under pseudo-first-order conditions. The concentration of BrO3 was ca 300 greater than that of amaranth. The rate of reaction increased with increasing concentration of H2SO4 and BrO3, while...

Various mesenchymal stem cells as easily accessible and multipotent cells can share different essential signaling pathways related to their stemness ability. Understanding the mechanism of stemness ability can be useful for controlling the stem cells for regenerative medicine targets. In this context, OMICs studies can analyze the mechanism of different stem cells properties or stemness ability...

Palmer amaranth, a dioecious summer annual species, is one of the most trouble‐ some weeds in the agronomic crop production systems in the United States. In the last two decades, continuous reliance on herbicide(s) with the same mode of action as the sole weed management strategy has resulted in the evolution of herbicideresistant (HR) weeds, including Palmer amaranth. By 2015, Palmer amaranth ...

A sensitive and convenient electrochemical method was developed for the simultaneous determination of the isomers of Ponceau 4R and Amaranth by an expanded graphite paste electrode (EGPE). The EGPE was prepared by mixing EG with solid paraffin. Compared with flake graphite paste and carbon paste electrodes, the EGPE showed higher electrocatalytic activity towards the oxidization of Ponceau 4R a...

Herbicide-resistant Palmer amaranth is a widespread issue in row-crop production in the Midsouthern US. Palmer amaranth is commonly found on roadside habitats in this region, but little is known on the degree of herbicide resistance in these populations. Herbicide resistance in roadside Palmer amaranth populations can represent the spread of an adaptive trait across a selective landscape. A lar...

Spermatogonial stem cells (SSCs) also known as germ stem cells (GSCs) are the basis of spermatogenesis process in the testis. Furthermore, they are also valuable cells with different applications in developmental biology, transgenesis technology, and clinic. Understanding the new findings related to the cell and molecular biology of SSCs and the methods for isolation and maintenance of these ce...

abstract spinal cord injury (sci) is a devastating condition producing great personal and societal costs and for which there is no effective treatment. stem cell transplantation is a promising therapeutic strategy, though much preclinical and clinical research work remains. here, we briefly describe sci epidemiology, pathophysiology, and transplantation trial in human developments, including te...

a field experiment was conducted to study the spatial relationships between weed seed bank and population and their distribution models in sugar beet crop (beta vulgaris) in 2009 at motahari  agricultural research station of karaj. sampling from seed bank before sugar beet drilling and weed population in three stages during the growing season were done using square (50*50 cm) and rectangle (25*...

The study assessed changes in nutritional content of some commonly consumed traditional vegetables subjected to postharvest processes. Amaranth (Amaranthus cruentus L.), black nightshade (Solanum scabrum Mill.) and jute mallow (Corchorus olitorius L.) leaves used as vegetables were subjected to blanching, boiling and drying. The proximate composition and β-carotene content of fresh and processe...
