Background: Suaeda vermiculata, a halophyte found in central Saudi Arabia, used as remedy for jaundice, liver diseases, and viral infection. Study aim: Chemical identification biological evaluation the n-hexane extract of S. vermiculata. Methods: An assay antimicrobial antioxidant potentials contents volatile oil plant’s aerial parts were analyzed through GC-MS analysis. Results: A total 24 con...

Purpose: To investigate the influence of elemene on growth and apoptotic changes in bladder cancer cells, involvement phosphatase tensin homologous protein (PTEN)-serine/threonine kinase (Akt) signal pathway process.
 Methods: Human cell line SV-HUC-1 human T24 were randomly assigned to blank control group groups. Protein expression levels apoptosis-related factors (Bcl-2, Bax, caspase-3] ...

In the present study, nanostructured lipid carriers (NLCs) were prepared and optimized for the intravenous delivery of β-Elemene (β-E). Aqueous dispersions of NLCs were successfully prepared by high-pressure homogenization method using glycerol monostearate as the solid lipid and a mixture of Maisine 35-1 and Labrafil M1944 CS as the liquid lipid. The results revealed that the morphology of the...

The essential oils of leaves and twigs from the Euphorbiaceous Croton draconoides, C. urucurana and Julocroton triqueter were obtained and analyzed by GC and GC-MS. In total, 101 volatile constituents were identified, comprising an average of 90% of the oil, mostly made up of mono- and sesquiterpenes. The monoterpene hydrocarbons varied from 1.2 to 40.2%, the sesquiterpene hydrocarbons from 34....

We consider the Gamma limit of the Abelian Chern-Simons-Higgs energy

In this note, we present a Γ-convergence type result for ferromagnetic films. We propose a model of films for which we could ensure the strong convergence of minimizers when the exchange parameter vanishes. In this model, the plate thickness is kept constant and the magnetization stays constant in the thickness of the film.

We study the asymptotic behaviour in terms of Γ-convergence of the following one dimensional energy
