Cell culture in shake flask and air-lift bioreactor was carried out to exploit the potential of Arnebia sp. for napthoquinone metabolite production. Cell suspension cultures of Arnebia were established from friable callus in liquid MS medium supplemented with 6-benzylaminopurine (BAP) (10 μM) and indole-3-butyric acid (IBA) (5 μM). Growth kinetic studies were done by using settled cell volume a...

Abstract. The trimeric caffeic acid derivative pulcaffeate (1) was isolated from the organic crude extract of roots Bourreria pulchra (Boraginaceae). biosynthesis 1 appears to involve an intramolecular Diels-Alder reaction between a cyclohexa-1,3-diene intermediate, generated by oxidation aromatic ring cinnamic unit, and conjugated double bond unit. structure new metabolite elucidated through d...

conclusions despite the healing effects of aeo in burn wounds, petrolatum was more effective than aeo in post-laser wound. results our study indicated higher epithelial confluence and general wound appearance scores (p = 0.045 for both) and less erythema and edema on fifth day in petrolatum (p = 0.009 and p = 0.034, respectively). the results showed less crusting and erythema (p = 0.016 and p =...

— The statuses of the non-indigenous frogs in Singapore are reviewed. Out of the 28 species of anurans known in Singapore, four are non-indigenous: Hylarana guentheri (Boulenger), Kaloula pulchra Gray, Lithobates catesbeianus (Shaw), and Microhyla fissipes Boulenger. The introduction pathways of the frogs are discussed, along with their status, distribution, impacts, and management issues with ...

background burn is still a majordevastating condition in emergency medicine departments among both genders and all age groups in all developed and developing countries, leading to physical, psychological scars and economical burden. the present study aimed to determine the healing effect of topical treatment with arnebia euchroma on second-degree burn wound in rats. methods fifty rats were divi...

Herbivorous pests and arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) coexist on the same host plant, having an indirect effect one another. We established experiment in a randomised complete block design with four treatments six replications to examine impact of AMF population damage caused plane trees by leafhopper Zyginella pulchra. Manure, manure plus fertiliser, fertiliser AMF, non-inoculated ...

Background & Aim: The most common complication of peripheral intravenous catheter use is phlebitis. This study aimed to determine the effect of Arnebia Euchroma on the prevention of peripheral intravenous catheter-related phlebitis. Methods & Materials: A double-blind randomized clinical trial done on 120 patients hospitalized in CCU and heart wards of Shariaty hospital in Tehran in 2017. The ...

Host-associated bacterial communities are potentially critical components of marine microbial diversity, yet our understanding of bacterial distribution on living surfaces lags behind that for planktonic communities. We used 16S rRNA gene library analysis to compare within-host (alpha) and between-host (beta) diversity among bacterial communities on 3 co-occurring marine eukaryotes from tempera...

To understand the role of marine natural products in surface mediated ecological interactions-such as biofouling-we need to be able to quantify metabolites at or near the relevant surfaces We describe a new technique for determining the concentration of natural products on the surface of marine algae. Surface metabolltes were quantified for 2 red algae, Delisea pulchra and Laurencia obtusa, by ...
