The effect of alcoholic extract of Nigella sativa was investigated in rats to evaluate the anti-ulcer activity by using two models, i.e. pyloric ligation and aspirininduced gastric ulcer. The parameters taken to assess anti-ulcer activity were volume of gastric secretion, free acidity, total acidity and ulcer index. The results indicate that the alcoholic extract significantly (P < 0.001) decre...

mango (mangifera indica l.) production is on the rise in various subtropical zones throughout the world. the cultivation of this fruit tree is feasible along the coast of granada, where some 1,500 ha are presently grown. in 2006, the eu exported 118 thousand tonnes of mangoes at a value of 131 million euros. this study was conducted to assess the physico-chemical quality characteristics of some...

The effect of Methanolic, chloroform and diethel ether extracts of Mimosa pudica was investigated in rats to evaluate the anti-ulcer activity by using three models, i.e. Aspirin, Alcohol and pyloric ligation models experimentally induced gastric ulcer. The parameters taken to assess anti-ulcer activity were volume of gastric secretion, PH, free acidity, total acidity and ulcer index. The result...

in this study the effects of plant growth regulators including; ga3 (0 and 50 mg/l) and ethephon (0 and 500 mg/l) were studied on the quality properties of two grape cultivars (perlette and yaghuti). at the harvest time, some physicochemical characteristics such as fruit cluster weight, fruit diameter, length, volume and l/d ratio, flesh firmness, fresh weight, ta, ph, tss and fruit color were ...

In order to predict storage life of navel orange, The model for the variable regularity of total soluble sugar, total acidity, vitamin C, soluble solids, the sugar-acidity ratio in navel orange according to storage time was established based on BP artificial neural network . The results show that the multi-factor BP artificial neural network model has better predicted effect than single-factor ...

The effect of fertilizer rate on fruit quality parameters in the black chokeberry (Aronia melanocarpa [Michx] Ell.) cv. `Viking' was studied over three years. A combined N±P±K fertilizer was applied in different rates. Plant height, yield, berry weight, anthocyanin content, content of brown compounds, content of soluble solids, anthocyanin composition and total acidity were recorded for the dif...

Ficus religiosa is being used in Ayurvedic and Malay traditional medicine for the treatment of various diseases including gastric ulcer. Considering the above claims, the present work was undertaken to validate the anti-ulcer potential of the ethanol extract of leaves of Ficus religiosa against in vivo aspirin induced ulcer and pylorus ligation assays. Gastric ulcers induced in Swiss albino rat...
