the genus phoenix is one of the most widely cultivated groups of palms around the world. the aim of this study was to determine the antioxidant activity and total phenolic compounds of 14 different varieties of date palm (phoenix dactylifera l., arecaceae) seed extracts with 5 solvents [water, methanol, methanol (50%), dmso, and water: methanol: acetone: formic acid (20:40:40:0.1)]. ferric redu...

and these results were considered the reference standard against which all other results were compared. Temocillin Etests were used according to the manufacturer's instructions. Susceptibility to temocillin using the Phoenix system was determined according to BSAC breakpoints for Enterobacteriaceae for systemic infections (susceptible if MIC ≤8 mg/L). 3 If the Etest or Phoenix results were with...

date bunch fading disorder (dbfd) has been one of the major issues facing date palm growers in recent decades. this order has caused high and non-compensable losses to date palm product. despite numerous studies, predominantly focusing on the causes and mitigation methods of this disorder, no precise influencing factors have been established and practices which can completely control it are not...

To the Editor: Several assays are available to measure human ghrelin (h-GHS), but the comparability of results among assays is unknown. As an addition to previous investigations concerning the stability of h-GHS (1 ), it was our objective to compare the two most commonly used commercial h-GHS RIAs, focusing on side-by-side determinations, recoveries, and assay imprecision. The assays were purch...

The occurrence of a large number of fossil woods having resemblance in anatomical features with the modern palm genus, Phoenix L in Deccan Intertrappean fossil flora of Maastrichtian-Danian age (i. e. Late Cretaceous and Earliest Tertiary (65-67 my)) indicates the most primitive record of date palm. Present discovery of biocompounds from fossil wood of Phoenix collected from Deccan Intertrappea...
