In this paper a series of eight Ti(IV) piperazine based complexes have been prepared and fully characterised in the solid-state by X-ray crystallography and in solution via NMR spectroscopy. In the solid-state either Ti(2)(L)(O(i)Pr)(6) or Ti(2)(L)(2)(O(i)Pr)(4) were observed depending upon the nature of the starting ligand. For complexes with less sterically demanding ligands (1H(2) and 2H(2))...

The effect of plane of nutrition on progesterone receptor (PR) and estrogen receptor alpha (ERalpha) expression in ovine endometrium was investigated. Rasa Aragonesa ewes (n=26) were fed diets to provide either 1.5 (Group C) or 0.5 (Group L) times the daily maintenance requirement and were slaughtered at Days 5 or 10 of the estrous cycle (Day 0=estrus). PR and ERalpha immunoreactivity were anal...

The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of hydroalcoholic extract of Prangos ferulacea (L.) Lindle (P.f) on changes in rats´ liver structure and serum activities of alanin and aspartate aminotransferases after alloxan injection. MATERIALS AND METHODS In this study...

The aim of this study was to compare chemical composition, relative feed values, and in vitro true digestibility the giant fennel (Ferula communicus L. -F), helis (Prangos ferulacea -H), gum- tragacanth (Astragalus microcephalus WILD. -G) leaves oak tree (Quercus robur -O), a naturally growing plant on high- altitude plateaus Eastern Anatolia, with those alfalfa. In digestibilities (IVTD) rough...

In the current Shenzhen Code (Turland & al. in Regnum Veg. 159. 2018), one might infer from last sentence of Art. H.6.2, which covers nothogeneric names bigeneric hybrids that are condensed formulas (“The use a hyphen instead or addition to connecting vowel is treated as an error be corrected by deletion hyphen.”), this rule applies only hybrids. When sentence, was new Code, originally proposed...

Pelvic rotation (PR) is commonly seen in patients with idiopathic scoliosis (IS), but factors contributing to this phenomenon and its relationship with the surgical outcome are not well established.This retrospective study included 85 IS patients in 2 groups: thoracic curve dominance group (group A) and lumbar curve dominance group (group B). Pre- and postoperative PR was measured on standing p...

INTRODUCTION In this study we investigated the effect of gall of Quercus brantii Lindl., a traditional Iranian medicine, in a murine model of experimental colitis induced in male rats by rectal administration of 2,4,6-trinitrobenzene sulfonic acid (TNBS). MATERIAL AND METHODS Quantification of the main active components was done for estimation of total phenolic content and free gallic acid. G...
