background medicinal plants have been used traditionally in golestan province (north of iran), against mycobacterium tuberculosis or the clinical signs of tuberculosis (tb). objectives this study aimed to define the inhibitory effects of ethanolic extracts of six of these medicinal plants against mycobacterium tuberculosis. materials and methods peganum harmala (seed extract), punica granatum (...

The aim of this study is to investigate the effect rotational rate turntable on drying kinetics lemon peels and some functional flow properties peel powders. Lemon were dried by microwave using different rates rotation (0, 6.5, 9.5, 12.5 rpm) at power levels (180W, 300W, 450W 600W), oven freeze-drying methods. Drying time was shortened 72- 95% compared drying. Microwave with provided 5.6-23.8% ...

The aim of the present work was to study bioactivity lemon, orange, and grapefruit peel essential oils (EOs) obtained from Argentinian plantations on different agronomically important insect fungal species. chemical profile EOs determined by Gas Chromatography-Mass Spectrometry (GC/MS); insecticidal activity studied through contact fumigant assays; antifungal evaluated with tests. Orange EO mos...
