BMJ Case Rep Published online: [please include Day Month Year] doi:10.1136/bcr-2014208980 DESCRIPTION Food is the most common cause of anaphylaxis. Very few cases of mustard seed-induced anaphylaxis have been reported. We present a case of mustard seed anaphylaxis. A 29-year-old man presented to our department for evaluation of anaphylax...

Water deficits during seed filling often decrease seed size in soybean (Glycine max L.). The physiological basis for this response is not known but may result from direct effects of low seed water potential (Psi(w)) on the seed filling process. To determine whether low Psi(w) occurred in reproductive tissues of soybean, we monitored the water status (Psi(w), Psi(s), and Psi(p)) of leaf, pericar...

in order to study of effects of integrated biological and chemical  fertilizers on  fertilizer use efficiency, grain yield and related traits to  grain growth of barley (hordeum vulgaris l.), a factorial experiment was conducted based on randomized complete block design with three replications in research farm of the faculty of agriculture sciences, university of mohaghegh ardabili in 2012. tre...

the experiment was to study the effects of replacing soybean meal by rubber seed meal on growth, economics and carcass characteristics of broiler. a total of 150 day-old commercial broiler (cobb-500) was reared for a period of 35 days. there were five treatments including t0 (without rubber seed meal), t1 (10% rubber seed meal), t2 (20% rubber seed meal), and t3 (30% rubber seed meal) and t4 (4...

abstract angelica archangelica, tanacetum cinerariaefolium and chelidonium majus are valuable medicinal plants for which there is no comprehensive information about their seed germination in review of literatures. with regarding of the importance of simple propagation of medicinal plants and the role of seed in production of these plants, this study was set out in order to analyzing of the effe...

functionality of marve seed gum (salvia macrosiphon boiss) on rheological properties and staling of baguette bread have been studied. three different concentrations of 0.1 %, 0.5% and 1% (w/w, flour basis) were applied and this hydrocolloid affected the quality of the stored bread to some extent. the effects of marve seed gum on the rheological properties of dough was also investigated instrume...

The effect of Aspergillus niger-fermented Terminalia catappa seed meal-based diet on the haematological parameters of broiler chicks was studied. T. catappa seed meal was inoculated with A. niger spore suspension and incubated at room temperature for 3 weeks. Forty-five, day-old broiler chicks with an initial average weight of 30.25 ± 2.40 g were divided into three groups of fifteen animals eac...

Electron photomicrographs of endosperm tissue from germinating seed of Ricinus communis L. cv. Hale show proplastids which contain prominent starch grains. The content of starch in endosperm tissue increased from 500 micrograms per seed, in imbibed seed, to 1,100 micrograms per seed in 5-day-old seedlings. The maximum net rate of starch deposition was 1.1 nanomoles glucose incorporated per minu...

We analyzed the pharmacokinetics of C3G on data from twelve subjects, after 2-week multiple dosing of black bean (Phaseolus vulgaris, Cheongjakong-3-ho) seed coat extract, using the mixed effect analysis method (NONMEM, Ver. 6.2), as well as the conventional non-compartmental method. We also examined the safety and tolerability. The PK analysis used plasma concentrations of the C3G on day 1 and...

Various plants and medications have been used in the treatment of wounds. In this study, the efficacy of Trichosanthes cucumerina Linn. seed on wound healing was evaluated using male wistar rats. 24 male wistar rats (of 12 for control and 12 experimental) were used for this study. A 2 by 2cm area of cutaneous wound was made at the dorsolateral aspect of the Thoracic Region of rats and 28% conce...
