In order to investigate the effects of nitrogen fertilizer levels and intercropping ratios on yield and other morphological traits of two crops, field experiments were conducted during two years (2010-2011) in the research field of the school of Agriculture, Shiraz University, Shiraz, Iran. The study was carried out in a factorial experiment laid out based on a completely randomized block desig...

this experiment was conducted to evaluate the drought tolerance of cultivated (carthamus tinctorius l.) and wild safflower (c. oxyacanthus bieb) populations at research farm of college of agriculture, isfahan university of technology located at lavark-najafabad in 2008. a randomized complete block design with 3 replications was used in each of irrigation levels after 80, 130 and 180 mm evaporat...

introduction considering the nutrient loss, environmental pollution and increase in production costs on account of chemical fertilizer application, supplying mineral nutrients based on organic sources and mycorrhizal inoculation can improve organic matter content in soil (khandan & astaraei, 2005; halajnia et al., 2007), promote sustainable production of oil crops (mostafavian et al., 2008; kaw...

The objective of this paper was to investigate the characteristics and general rules of domestic safflower injection causing allergic shock, to retrieve the medical journals published domestically, and to make statistical analysis on the cases of allergic shock caused by safflower injection. Results showed that the incidence of allergic shock caused by safflower injection in patients above 40 y...

Acanthiophilus helianthi (Rossi, 1794) (Diptera: Tephritidae) also known as safflower fly, is an oligophagous species that cause significant damage to plants. Safflower Carthamus tinctorius (L.) (Asterales: Asteraceae) plant, which among its hosts, important energy plant whose cultivation has increased in recent years our country resistant drought and high adaptability. This study investigated ...

Background. Safflower Yellow Injection has been reported as a treatment for acute cerebral infarction in recent studies in China. However, there is a lack of availability of the evidence for the efficacy and safety of Safflower Yellow Injection for the treatment of acute ischemic stroke. So we investigated the effects of Safflower Yellow Injection for the treatment of acute cerebral infarction....

Marine oils containing n-3 fatty acids exhibit variable antineoplastic effects. Diets containing low (11.6% of kcal) or high (46.5% of kcal) levels of marine oils as the exclusive fat source were compared to diets containing identical amounts of safflower oil (n-6) in weanling, male BALB/c ByJ mice. All diets provided approximately 90 kcal/100 g body weight/day, and contained identical quantiti...

The effects of carbohydrate and fat on satiety have been examined primarily through meal composition studies. The purpose of this study was to compare the effects of pure sucrose and safflower oil, isovolumetric beverage preloads, on appetite (measured every 15 minutes by visual analogue scales) and food intake 60 minutes later. Young men consumed 0, 418, 836 and 1254 kJ of sucrose in the first...
