Background and objectives: Severe burn damage and its consequences are life threatening which can complicate patients’ health. Burn damage increases reactive oxygen species (ROS) generation which leads to severe damage to tissues and is implicated in burn shock. Some medicinal and traditional plants are considered as safe, natural and inexpensive sources for treatment of differ...

background: recent circumstantial evidences are suggesting that an increasing number of iranian patients with cu­taneous leishmaniasis are unresponsive to meglumine antimoniate (glucantime®). pistacia atlantica is native plant in iran (central, western, and eastern regions). gum obtained pistacia atlantica has been reported to possess consid­erable in vitro antimicrobial activity. in this study...

in this study, the essential oil (eo) of pistacia atlantica subsp. kurdica was added at the rate of 10 g/kg of daily diet of rainbow trout and its effect on gut microbiota (enterobacteriaceae, lactobacillus spp., total count), growth performance and antioxidant status of rainbow trout fillet was investigated. sixty apparently healthy rainbow trout with an approximate weight of 150 g ±3.5 were r...

p. atlantica subsp. kurdica, with the local name of baneh, is a wild medicinal plant which grows in kurdistan, iran.  the identification of resistance gene analogs holds great promise for the development of resistant cultivars. a pcr approach with degenerate primers designed according to conserved nbs-lrr (nucleotide binding site-leucine rich repeat) regions of known disease-resistance (r) gene...

background aflatoxins are highly toxic secondary metabolites mainly produced by aspergillus parasiticus. this species can contaminate a wide range of agricultural commodities, including cereals, peanuts, and crops in the field. in recent years, research on medicinal herbs, such as pistacia atlantica subsp. kurdica, have led to reduced microbial growth, and these herbs also have a particular eff...

dpph radical-scavenging activity of the bene hull oil (bho), sesame oil (seo), rice bran oil (rbo), the oils' methanolic (ch3oh/h2o, 80:20 v/v) or hexane extracts, and their unsaponifiable matters fraction were measured and compared with each other. as a radical-scavenger, seo was significantly stronger than rbo and bho, respectively. unlike bho and rbo, the unsaponifiable (usm) fraction of the...

pistacia atlantica is the most important tree species for the economy of many rural areas in west of iran, but no effort has been made for the genetic improvement of this species. the aim of this investigation was to study the genetic variation and inheritance of early growth traits in p. atlantica. for this purpose, three wild pistachio populations comprising 60 randomly selected adult trees f...

background and objectives: baneh tree or pistacia atlantica subsp. kurdica is an endemic plant of iran which belongs to anacardiaceae family. it has various traditional uses including astringent and anti-diarrheal as well as improving some of the symptoms of gastrointestinal upsets. in this study we decided to investigate the effects of various fractions of baneh gum with different doses in an ...
