The aims of this study were to assess the large-scale extraction and recovery poly(3-hydroxybutyrate-co-3-hydroxyvalerate) (PHBV) biosynthesized by mixed microbial consortia (MMC) that was fed fermented dairy manure at pilot level using green solvents (ethanol, cyclohexanone (CYC), dimethyl carbonate (DMC)). reflux procedure with CYC for 3 h 130 °C DMC 4 90 showed highest (32.3%) an overall pur...

IntroductIon The presence of polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) in fish and other marine organisms is of immediate environmental and regulatory concern. To determine the concentrations of PCBs indicative of contaminant exposure, and lipids, which also characterize physiological conditions of fish, the analytes must first be extracted. Traditionally, this has been done using Soxhlet methods that a...

Background: To increase the therapeutic effect of drugs to combat diseases, combination therapy with current chemical and new medicines derived from medicinal plants is necessary. Objectives: The present work aimed investigate hydroalcoholic extract two plants, Ephedra major Momordica cacharantia (Carla), resveratrol drug on cell viability expression levels caspase-3 gene in MCF-7 line. Methods...

Methods: The (pulp) of fruits of plant Liomnia acidissima Linn was extracted with 95% ethanol at 55oC and evaluate for their antiasthma activity on tracheal chains of guinea pigs by using three cumulative concentrations...

Lawsone a natural pigment present in the henna leaves has been used as a skin and hair dye since 1400 BC. The concentration of this natural compound in leaves varies from place to place depending upon many of the environmental factors and the highest quantity reported so far is about 1% of the dry mass. Heretofore, it has been reported that natural colored extracts and isolate from Henna leaves...

For the range of fat content found in pork, the two chemical procedures studied for the estimation of intramuscular fat (IMF), Soxhlet and total lipid (TL), are highly correlated and values for the Soxhlet procedure are slightly lower. No significant (P<.05) differences existed between the two methods. Hence, both methods can be recommended for the determination of IMF in pork. The Soxhlet meth...
