background: autoxidation is considered to be the main route of edible oil deterioration, which produces undesirable odors and flavors (attributed to primary and secondary products of unsaturated fatty acids) during storage and heating. objective: antioxidant activities of zataria multiflora (zmeo) and bunium persicum (bpeo) essential oils (eos) in linseed oil (containing higher ω-3 in vegetable...

Tetrazolium violet is a tetrazolium salt and has been proposed as an antitumor agent. In this study, we reported for the first time that tetrazolium violet not only inhibited human lung cancer A549 cell proliferation but also induced apoptosis and blocked cell cycle progression in the G1 phase. The results showed that tetrazolium violet significantly decreased the viability of A549 cells at 5-1...

Background: A highly efficient genetic transformation system is essential for a successful genetic manipulation of the African violet (Saintpaulia ionantha Wendl.). Objectives: Developing a particle bombardment-based genetic transformation system for the African violet. Materials and Methods: A local cultivar of the African violet from Guilan province was used for transformation experiments. Th...

The recent observation of a sharp selective bactericidal property possessed by gentian violet 1 raised the question as to which part of the gentian violet molecule was responsible for the sensitive affinity. It seemed wise to attack this problem by studying substances closely allied to gentian violet in chemical structure, 2 and the results obtained will be briefly reported in the present commu...

BACKGROUND Psoriasis is a common chronic inflammatory skin, nails, and joints disease related to the immune system by periods of exacerbations and remissions. It is characterized by thick end, erythematous, and scaling lesions, which affects about 2 to 4 percent of the general population. The disease occurs equally in both sexes and the most common form of the disease is psoriasis vulgaris. The...
