Ziel des Projektes indiGo war die Entwicklung einer integrierten Lösung für prozessorientiertes Wissensmanagement in Software Engineering Umgebungen [Rech et al, 2004] [Rech und Althoff, 2004]. Dadurch wird die verteilte und kollaborative Einführung, Evaluation und Verbesserung von Prozessmodellen in einem Unternehmen ermöglicht. Dieser Beitrag stellt die Ergebnisse des indiGo-Projekts vor und ...

The B. subtilis DhelD allele rendered cells proficient in transformational recombination and moderately sensitive to methyl methanesulfonate when present in an otherwise Rec strain. The DhelD allele was introduced into rec-deficient strains representative of the a (recF strain), b (addA addB), g (recH), « (DrecU), and z (DrecS) epistatic groups. The DhelD mutation increased the sensitivity to D...

The chemical composition of the essential oil obtained from the aerial flowering parts of Ziziphora clinopodioides subsp. bungeana (Juz.) Rech. f. was analyzed by GC and GC-MS. Thirty-two components representing 97.1% of the total oil were identified. Oxygenated monoterpenes (94.3%) were the predominant fraction of the oil with pulegone (65.2%), isomenthone (11.9%), 1,8-cineole (7.8%) and piper...

The cytotoxic chloroform fraction of Euphorbia aellenii afforded two cycloartane type triterpenes — cycloart-25-en-3,24-diol (1) and 24-methylene-cycloartan-3-ol (2) — for the first time from this plant. Preparation of cycloartane derivatives, 3, 24-O-diacetyl-cycloart-25-en as compound 3 and 3-O-acetyl-24-methylene-cycloartan (4) were conducted by acetylating of 1 and 2, respectively. The ...

Molecular markers, mainly DNA-based are potential tools for DNA barcoding and phylogenetic study. The plant species belonging to the Nepeta genus have important medicinal value because of the presence of nepetalactones, and they have been used to treat human diseases. We amplified nuclear and chloroplast gene loci to develop a DNA barcode and phylogenetic study of Nepeta deflersiana. Among the ...

Background and objectives: Many Nepeta species have been commonly used in Iranian folk medicine as tranquilizer, relaxant, carminative and restorative tonic for nervous and respiratory disorders. Inflammation is a problem in many diseases and has an important role in brain function that can cause neurodegenerative disorders. Inflamed glial cells can exacerbate neurodegenerative diseases by prod...

The hydrodistilled essential oil from flowers of Hymenocrater platystegius Rech. f., which isendemic to Iran, was analyzed by GC and GC/MS. Twelve compounds representing 80.4%of the flowers oil of H. platystegius were identified. This oil was particularly rich in α-pinene(25.8%) and limonene (20.9%); another major component of the oil was β-pinene (12.2%).
