Glycoproteins were extracted from membranes of erythrocytes that displayed Tn polyagglutination and were compared chemically and immunologically with glycoproteins of group O, MN cells. Tn glycoprotein had lower than normal NANA : protein and sugar : protein ratios, as revealed by direct analysis and polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis, and displayed slower immunoelectrophoretic mobility than gl...

INTRODUCTION The spreading of bacterial antibiotic resistance among clinical strains of pathogenic bacteria has made investigators to search for other active antibacterial agents which could provide a valuable complement to the existing therapies. AIM To determine the antibacterial activity of clary sage oil (Salvia sclarea L.) against Staphylococcus clinical strains which were isolated from ...

background: sclareol is a phytochemical used in people's diet in southeast asia. objective: to investigate the immunotherapeutic effectiveness of sclareol against breast cancer by direct intraperitoneal injection. methods: sclareol was isolated and purified from salvia sclarea. effect of sclareol on cell growth inhibition was evaluated by mtt assay. intraperitoneally injected sclareol effe...

Phytomanagement uses plants and soil conditioners to create value on contaminated land while minimizing environmental risk. This work was carried out a metal(loid)-contaminated site aimed at assessing the suitability of Salvia sclarea L. (sage) Coriandrum sativum (coriander) combined with an arbuscular mycorrhizal fungus (AMF) inoculant immobilize metal(loid)s produce essential oils (EO). The e...

The antifungal activity and the chemical composition of essential oils (EOs) from some Mediterranean autochthonous plants were investigated against Malassezia pachydermatis, a fastidious opportunistic yeast usually involved in canine external otitis. Minimum inhibitory concentrations (MICs) of Anthemis nobilis, Citrus limon, Citrus paradisi, Illicium verum, Lavandula hybrida, Mentha piperita, O...
