the antioxidant potential of crude methanol extract (ce) as well as chloroform (cf), ethyl acetate (ef) and n-butanol (nf) soluble fractions of enhydra fluctuans lour, which is widely used in indigenous system of medicine for different purposes, were studied. the antioxidant potential of extract/different fractions were evaluated using different in vitro antioxidant models. in addition, total a...

The objective of this study was to determine the major antioxidants and antioxidant activity in different fractions (skin, seeds and pulp) of three tomato cultivars (Excell, Tradiro and Flavourine) grown under hydroponic conditions in a commercial greenhouse in New Zealand. It was found that the skin fraction of all cultivars had significantly (p < 0.05) higher levels of total phenolics, total ...

The reference to ethnicity in the 2012 National Suicide Prevention Strategy for England (1) is mainly with regard to promoting mental health in Black and Minority Ethnic (BME) groups. However, there is little detailed information about any specific strategy to reduce suicide rates in BME groups.

ABSTRACT- Paddy soils make up the largest anthropogenic wetlands on earth. Present study was performed to investigate and compare soil formation of paddy soils with long-term rice cultivation history with non-paddy soils and study the effect of waterlogging on soil pedogenesis. Soil samples were taken from paddy and non-paddy soils derived from the same calcareous parent materials. Some pedogen...

Determination and recognition of relative distribution of chemical forms of each element and their relationship with physical, chemical and soil clay minerals can help researchers to manage soil fertility better. This research attempted to recognize chemical fractions of zinc (Zn) and copper (Cu) in some surface and subsurface soil samples of Kohgiluyeh and Boyer-Ahmad province and their relati...
