Purpose: To investigate the cytotoxic and alpha-amylase inhibitory (AAI) potential of methanol (MeOH) extract T. minuta its isolated metabolites. 
 Methods: Phytochemical investigation MeOH aerial parts was accomplished using SiO2 Rp-18 column chromatography (CC). The structures metabolites were determined verified based on various data, in addition to comparison with literature data. asse...

BACKGROUND Cell viability and motility comprise ubiquitous mechanisms involved in a variety of (patho)biological processes including cancer. We report a technical comparative analysis of the novel impedance-based xCELLigence Real-Time Cell Analysis detection platform, with conventional label-based endpoint methods, hereby indicating performance characteristics and correlating dynamic observatio...

The need for clean water is becoming urgent all over the world. risk of microbial contamination drinking and its growing ability under poor nutritional conditions occur frequently existing management systems do not efficiently eliminate these micropollutants. major goal this research to analyze test quality at random locations in Jeddah City investigate integration polyurethane foam coated nano...

Lateral gene transfer affects the evolutionary path of key genes involved in ancient metabolic traits, such as sulfate respiration, even more than previously expected. In this study, the phylogeny of the adenosine-5'-phosphosulfate (APS) reductase was analyzed. APS reductase is a key enzyme in sulfate respiration present in all sulfate-respiring prokaryotes. A newly developed PCR assay was used...

Suicide-related behavior (SRB), including suicide attempts and instrumental SRB, occurs far more often than completed suicide and exacts a toll on patients, their loved ones, and society. Nevertheless, few prospective studies of SRB have been conducted. In this study, 954 patients were interviewed in a psychiatric hospital and then followed for one year after discharge. During this one-year per...

In vitro studies evaluating the cytotoxic potential of substances released from dental adhesives are lacking. The purpose this study was to compare cytotoxicity extracts Scotchbond Universal and Optibond Solo Plus, an adhesive in experimental phase: T1. 3T3 mouse fibroblast cells MG-63 osteoblast-like human osteosarcoma were exposed for 24 h serial extract dilutions. Cytotoxicity determined usi...

BACKGROUND Repeat-breeder females increase non-productive days (NPD) and decrease herd productivity and profitability. The objectives of the present study were 1) to define severe repeat-breeder (SRB) females in commercial breeding herds, 2) to characterize the pattern of SRB occurrences across parities, 3) to examine factors associated with SRB risk, and 4) to compare lifetime reproductive per...

BACKGROUND Nowadays, there has been an increased interest in essential oils from various plant origins as potential antimicrobial, antioxidant, and antiproliferative agents. This trend can be mainly attributed to the rising number and severity of food poisoning outbreaks worldwide along with the recent negative consumer perception against artificial food additives and the demand for novel funct...

Cancer is a major cause of death worldwide and causes serious problems in human life. It is developed by uncontrolled growth of a cell or a group of cells. There are many difficulties in treatment of cancer and many researchers are involved in investigating for effective drugs to treat the disease. Caryophyllaceae is a large family of about 86 genera and 2200 herbaceous or subshrub species. The...

AIM To compare and contrast two colorimetric assays used for the measurement of proliferation using two dental pulp cell types: dental pulp stem cells (DPSC) and human dental pulp fibroblasts (HDPF). METHODOLOGY Dental pulp stem cells or HDPF were seeded at 0.25×10(4) cells per well in 96-well plates. Cell proliferation was evaluated after 24-72h. At the end of the experimental period, the su...
