Synergistic activity of Salvia officinalis and Cichorium intybus extracts and commonly used antibiotics, amoxicillin and chloramphenicol, were evaluated. Interactions between plant extracts and antibiotics were tested by checkerboard method and interpreted as FIC index. Staphylococcus aureus ATCC 25923, Escherichia coli ATCC 25922, Pseudomonas aeruginosa ATCC 27853 and clinical isolates Staphyl...

Rosmarinic acid (RA) possesses several protective bioactivities that have attracted increasing interest by nutraceutical/pharmaceutical industries. Considering the reduced bioavailability after oral use, effective (and safe) delivery systems are crucial to protect RA from gastrointestinal degradation. This study aims to characterize the safety profile of solid lipid nanoparticles produced with ...

OBJECTIVES A reduction in bond strength of composite to bleached enamel has been reported immediately after bleaching treatment. Application of some antioxidant agents may decrease the adverse effects of whitening agents on bond strength and enhance composite bond to enamel. This study aimed to assess the effect of green tea, sodium ascorbate, sage and grape seed extract on bond strength of com...

Serial analysis of gene expression (SAGE) is a method for identifying and quantifying transcripts from eukaryotic genomes. Since its invention, SAGE has been widely applied to analyzing gene expression in many biological and medical studies. Vast amounts of SAGE data have been collected and more than a thousand SAGE-related studies have been published since the mid-1990s. The principle of SAGE ...

Traditional use and clinical reports suggest that the culinary herb sage (Salvia officinalis) may be effective for patients with mild to moderate Alzheimer's disease (AD). In this study, we evaluated the effect of a standardized extract from the leaves of S. officinalis (SOE) and its active ingredient rosmarinic acid on Alzheimer amyloid-beta peptide (Abeta)-induced toxicity in cultured rat phe...

SAGE is an open source computer algebra system implemented using an object-oriented categorical framework, with methods for objects, methods for their elements, and methods for their morphisms. Currently, SAGE has the ability to deal with abelian groups, permutation groups, and matrix groups over a finite field. This paper will present an overview of the implementations of the group-theoretical...

PREMISE OF THE STUDY Microsatellite primers were identified to study the genetic diversity, population genetic structure, and relationships of common sage and closely related species. METHODS AND RESULTS Nine novel polymorphic trinucleotide microsatellite loci were identified for Salvia officinalis. A total of 127 alleles were observed. The observed and expected heterozygosity values ranged f...

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE The aim of the study was to evaluate the clinical effects of a mouthwash containing Sage (Salvia officinalis) extracts on Streptococcus mutans (SM) causing dental plaque in school-aged children. MATERIAL AND METHODS A double blind clinical trial study was conducted in a dormitory on 70 girls aged 11-14 years having the same socioeconomic and oral hygiene conditions. T...

Acetylcholinesterase (AChE), a serine hydrolase, is potentially susceptible to inactivation by phenylmethylsulfonyl fluoride (PMSF) and benzenesulfonyl fluoride (BSF). Although BSF inhibits both mouse and Torpedo californica AChE, PMSF does not react measurably with the T. californica enzyme. To understand the residue changes responsible for the change in reactivity, we studied the inactivation...
