the international data have indicated a growing trend of alcohol use worldwide during recent years. although alcohol use is against cultural norms and religious law in iran, anecdotal reports from substance abuse treatment providers show that there is demand for alcohol treatment in the country. a recent national report also documented alcohol use disorders in iran. development and implementati...

Curcumin (CU) loaded solid lipid nanoparticles (SLNs) of fatty acids (FA) were prepared with a coacervation technique based on FA precipitation from their sodium salt micelles in the presence of polymeric non-ionic surfactants. Myristic, palmitic, stearic, and behenic acids, and different polymers with various molecular weights and hydrolysis grades were employed as lipid matrixes and stabilise...

In this study; the saturated and unsaturated fatty acid composition of 11 different peanut cultivars, Runner (Georgia Green) Virginia (NC-7, Masal, Halisbey, Wilson, Com, Brantley, Duzici-1) Spanish (Florispan, Nigeria-1), widely grown in eastern Mediterranean Transition Zone were determined. The research was carried out for two years (2020 to 2021) under second crop season conditions trial are...

Deposition of behenic acid (B.A) mono and bilayers onto gold coated surfaces was performed by Langmuir-Blodget dip-casting technique. Surface Plasmon resonance (SPR) and ellipsometry methods were employed for investigation of the monolayer and bilayer films. The adsorption of the biologically important molecule Concanavalin A (Con A) from bulk solution to these monolayers and bilayers as we...

  Background: The dried fruits of Silybum marianum (L.) Gaertn (Compositae) contain silymarin, an isomeric mixture of flavonolignans. Silymarin acts as a strong anti -hepatotoxic. This fruits contains a high amount of oil .  Objective: The objective of this study was to determine total lipid content, fatty acid composition and content of different kind of tocopherols in seed oils of S. marianum...

in this case study, we describe a 25 year-old male who showed the symptoms of diabetes after a period of heavy drinking. (hba1c=13%). treatment was started with 120 units of insulin. after stopping alcohol consumption and taking an appropriate diet, insulin was tapered down. five months after the start of treatment, insulin was stopped (hba1c=5%). the results showed that he was in a good metabo...

the reaction of tertiary, secondary and benzylic alcohols with different nitriles in the presence of alumina-methanesulfonic acid (ama) as a new reagent affords the corresponding amides in good yields (table 1, 2). conversion of 2,6-bis(hydroxymethyl)-4-halo anisoles into corresponding diamides in the range of 68-76% yields (table 3) are also included in this paper.
