The present study was carried out to evaluate the antimicrobial and antioxidant activities of methanol extract of Careya arborea (MECA) stem barks (Myrtaceae) in various in-vitro systems. Antimicrobial activities of MECA were carried out using disc diffusion methods with Gram positive and Gram negative bacteria and some fungal species. MECA showed broad-spectrum antimicrobial activity against a...

Let S-Set be the category of $S$-sets, sets together with the actions of a semigroup $S$ on them. And, let S-Pos be the category of $S$-posets, posets together with the actions compatible with the orders on them. In this paper we show that the category S-Pos is a radical extension of S-Set; that is there is a radical on the category S-Pos, the order desolator radical, whose torsion-free class i...

The present study was carried out to evaluate the antioxidant and free radical scavenging activity of methanolic extract of Ervatamia coronaria leaves (Apocynaceae) in various systems. DPPH radical, superoxide anion radical, nitric oxide radical and hydroxyl radical scavenging assays were carried out to evaluate the antioxidant potential of the extract. The antioxidant activity of methanolic ex...

‎In this paper‎, ‎the notion of the radical of a filter in‎ ‎residuated lattices is defined and several characterizations of‎ ‎the radical of a filter are given‎. ‎We show that if F is a‎ ‎positive implicative filter (or obstinate filter)‎, ‎then‎ ‎Rad(F)=F‎. ‎We proved the extension theorem for radical of filters in residuated lattices‎. ‎Also‎, ‎we study the radical‎ ‎of filters in linearly o...

the hydroxyl radical (oh•) is a powerful oxidant produced as a consequence of cavitation in water. it can react nonspecifically in breaking down persistent organic pollutants in water into their mineral form. it can also recombine to form hydrogen peroxide which is very useful in water treatment. in this study, terephthalic acid (ta) and potassium iodide dosimetry were used to quantify and inve...

the objective of the present study is to develop and investigate the swelling behavior of ph-sensitive superporous hydrogel (sph) and sph composite (sphc). a novel superporous hydrogel containing poly (methacrylic acid-co-acrylamide) was synthesized from methacrylic acid and acrylamide through the aqueous solution polymerization, using n,n-methylenebisacrylamide as a crosslinker and ammonium pe...

oxygen-derived free radical* (ofr) involvement in ischacmia-rcpcrfusion (ir) injury was investigated in a rat isolated kidney model, using 20 minutes iscliaemia followed by 15 or 60 minutes reperfusion. two antioxidants, the xanthine oxidase inhibitor allopurinol and the hydroxyl radical scavenger dimcthylthiourca (dmtu), were uscit to try and prevent ofr-relatcd damage. renal function was esti...

preoperative gleason score (gs) obtained from trans rectal ultra sonography (trus) is the most common grading system to evaluate the appropriate treatment for patients with clinically localized prostate cancer. but this method showed upgraded and downgraded results in comparison to gleason score obtained from radical prostatectomy. the current study aimed to determine clinical or pathological v...

reactions of free radicals and reactive oxygen species (ros) with biological molecules in vivo play an important physiological role in many diseases. 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl (dpph) is a stable free radical and often used as a routine reagent to evaluate the antioxidant capacity of an antioxidant. this study was undertaken to investigate the free radical-scavenging and antioxidant activiti...
