Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractRadiation-Induced Cognitive Dysfunction After Different Schemes of Fractionated Whole Brain IrradiationZorkina Yana Alexandrovna, Zubkov Eugene Andreevich, Yusubalieva Gaukhar Maratovna et al.Radiation-induced cognitive dysfunction is a serious complication of radiation therapy. In humans, numerous cases of radiation damage have been recorded after irradiation for therapeutic purposes. The degree of cognitive dysfunctions and its dependence on biological effective doses should be tested in animal preclinical models to minimize radiation side effects. Fractionated whole brain irradiation was performed according to the following schemes: … …Neuroscience International, Vol. 5, Issue 2 · 14 Jan 2015 · 7,256 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractTHE GROUP COMPOSITION OF METAL COMPOUNDS IN SOIL AS AN INDEX OF SOIL ECOLOGICAL STATESaglara Sergeevna Mandzhieva, Tatiana Mikhailovna Minkina, Svetlana Nikolaevna Sushkova et al.A system of indices for assessing the soil ecological state as based upon the group composition of heavy metal compounds in soils is proposed. The group composition of heavy metal were determined using combined fractionation including sequential and parallel extractions (1 N NH4Ac, pH 8; 1% EDTA in NH4Ac and 1 N HCl). It was shown that strongly bound compounds … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 1 · 7 Dec 2013 · 7,593 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractBio-Guided Study on Melastoma malabathricum Linn Leaves and Elucidation of its Biological ActivitiesMourouge Saadi Alwash, Nazlina Ibrahim, Wan Yaacob AhmadThe present study aimed to isolate and identify constituents with antibacterial activity from the Methanol extract of Melastoma malabathricum leaves (MMML) through bioassay guided fractionation. Furthermore, the study scoped to evaluate the cytotoxic effects of M. malabathricum leaves fractions for possible protective effect of antoxidative constituents present in the fractions. The MMML extract was fractionated by Vacuum Liquid Chromatography (VLC) … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 10, Issue 8 · 24 Jul 2013 · 9,513 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractIdentification and Mode of Action of Antibacterial Components from Melastoma malabathricum Linn LeavesMourouge Saadi Alwash, Nazlina Ibrahim, Wan Yaacob AhmadThe present study aimed to assess the antibacterial activity of the methanol extract of Melastoma Malabathricum Leaves (MMML), active fraction of M. Malabathricum Leaves (ML5) and isolated kaempferol-3-O-(2",6"-di-O-p-trans-coumaroyl)-β-glucopyranoside (Kf) and to describe the preliminary mode of action against Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria. The MMML extract was fractionated by Vacuum Liquid Chromatography (VLC) to afford M. malabathricum Leaves fractions (ML1-ML6) of … …American Journal of Infectious Diseases, Vol. 9, Issue 2 · 18 Jun 2013 · 12,621 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSpeciation and Availability of Cr, Ni and Co IN Serpentine Soils of Ranau, SabahMahsa Tashakor, Wan Zuhairi Wan Yaacob, Hamzah MohamadProblem statement: Serpentine soils are known as a geogenic source of heavy metal pollution because they are anomalously rich in chromium, nickel and cobalt. Approach: However, only that portion of these metals which is available in the ecosystem and incorporates in the bio-transformation processes, is dangerous for the environment. Availability of Cr, Ni and Co depends on their speciation into … …Current Research in Geoscience, Vol. 2, Issue 1 · 20 Mar 2013 · 13,551 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractBioautography Guided Identification of Anticandidal Compounds from A. terreus st. 1B. K. Nagaraja, R. Sripathy, C. N. Ramchand, M. SundararamanProblem statement: Saprophytic and soil inhabiting microorganisms are prolific producers of secondary metabolites with wide range of structural and functional diversity. The objective of the current study was to screen and evaluate the anti-candidal properties of soil inhabiting fungi. Approach: Preliminary dual culture assay and bioautography was used to screen the fungi with potential anti-fungal activity and direct detection of … …American Journal of Infectious Diseases, Vol. 7, Issue 4 · 1 Dec 2011 · 7,629 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractExtraction and Purification of Collagenase Enzymes: A Critical ReviewSaid M Daboor, Suzanne M Budge, Abdel E Ghaly et al.Problem statement: Enzymes have vital roles in several industrial processes (foods, cosmetics, nutraceuticals and pharmaceuticals) due to their highly selective nature and high activity at very low concentrations. Recent efforts to identify new sources of useful enzymes have been concentrated on the marine environment because of the potential to make use of processing wastes. About 35-50% of the mass of … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 6, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2010 · 14,311 accessesView PDFCite
