Plants or plant cells in vitro, show physiological and morphological response to microbial, physical or chemical factors which are known as ‘elicitors’. Elicitation is a process of induced or enhanced synthesis of secondary metabolites by the plants to ensure their survival persistence and competitiveness. The application of elicitors, which is currently the focus of research, has been consider...

background: it was shown that olive leave extract has antifungal, antibacterial and antiviral activities. the effects of ole on herpes simplex virus-1 (hsv-1) have not been systematically investigated yet. the aim of this study was to examine the in vitro effect of olive leaf hydroalcoholic extract (olhe) on hsv-1.   methods: virucidal effect and viral replication in vero cell line were studied...

Plant Flavonoids are considered as naturally occurring bioactive compounds. In the present study, chitosan and Aspergillus niger elicitors were used as chemical and fungal elicitors, respectively. The cell suspension culture of Andrographis paniculata (Burm. f.) Nees was established in 50 ml MS media supplemented with 2,4-D: BAP (1.0:0.5 mg/l) and treated with chitosan and Aspergillus niger eli...

introduction: hela cell is a widely studied cell line derived from human cerzix adenocarcinoma. the cells are epithelial - like in morphology and susceptible to polio viruses and adenovirus type 5. hela cells are usually as monolayer for isolation and propagation of some human viruses, as well as for the expression of recombinant proteins, including hepatitis b surface antigen. the aim of this ...

Background: Monolayer electrospun scaffolds have already been used in bone tissue engineering due to their high surface-to-volume ratio, interconnectivity, similarity to natural bone extracellular matrix (ECM), and simple production. Objectives: The aim of this study was to evaluate the dynamic culture effect on osteogenic differentiation and mineralizationi into a compact cellular multilayer ...
