background scrophularia striata (scrophulariaceae family) is an herbaceous plant that is traditionally used for treatment of microbial infections. objectives antimicrobial and antioxidant activity of different extracts (methanolic, ethanolic, aqueous and ethyl acetate) from s. striata aerial parts was evaluated. materials and methods the antimicrobial activity of different extracts from s. stri...

in this work, leather fibers were employed as a component of elastomeric compounds based on nbr, cr and epdm and studied were made on their effects upon curing characteristics and mechanical properties of the prepared compounds. evaluation of curing characteristics of the compounds demonstrated that leather fibers have no considerable effect on initial viscosity and curing time of the compounds...

microorganisms are important components of soil. some soil filamentous fungi such aspenicilium produce many bioactive small molecules, or secondary metabolites, that range frombeneficial bioactive compounds to harmful toxins. in this study, the metabolites of threepenicillium species (p. goditanum, p. moldavicum and p. corylophilum) were extracted byadding ethyl acetate to liquid cultures. the ...
