Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractINDUCES OF ANTIOXIDANT COMPOUNDS AND SALT TOLERANCE IN WHEAT PLANT, IRRIGATED WITH SEAWATER AS RESPONSE TO APPLICATION OF MICROALGAE SPRAYHanaa H. Abd El Baky, M. M. Hussein, Gamal S. El-BarotyWheat plants (Triticum aestivum L., cv. Giza 168) irrigated with either 10 or 20% of Seawater (SW) were treated with aqueous extracts of green microalgae Scenedesmus obliquus and blue green algae Spirulina platensis (AESO and AESP 20 g (dry weight)/L) in order to increase wheat salt tolerance. Treated plants showed higher ability to tolerate salt stress (10 or 20% SW) … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 2 · 7 Jan 2014 · 7,591 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractPotential of Industrial Waste Water Use for Jatropha Cultivation in Arid LandHanaa Hussein Abd El Baky, Mohamed Moursy Hussein, Eman Ahamed IbrahemA pot experiment was conducted in the greenhouse of the National Research Center, Dokki, Cairo, Egypt to investigate the effect of NKP foliar fertilizer and irrigation by Industrial Drainage Water (IDW) on Lipid Peroxidation (LP) and antioxidant enzyme activities [Catalase (CAT), Suproxide Desmatase (SOD) and Ascorbate Peroxidas (APX)] of jatropha plants. Plants fertilized with NPK fertilizers (N0g+P0g+K0g, N3g+P3g+K3g and N6g+P6g+k6g/pot) … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 4 · 13 Nov 2013 · 7,472 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEvaluation of Thai Style Stretching Exercise on "Ruesi Dud Ton" on Physical Health and Oxidative Stress in Healthy VolunteerJintanaporn Wattanathorn, Tasanee Boonterm, Wipawee Thukhummee et al.Despite the health benefit reputation of Thai stretching exercise "Ruesi dud ton", no scientific evidence is available. Therefore, we aimed to determine the effect of Thai style stretching exercise on physical health and oxidative stress markers including Malondialdegyde (MDA) level and the activities of main scavenger enzymes including Superoxide Dismutase (SOD), Catalase (CAT) and Glutathione Peroxidase (GSH-Px). We had determined … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 12, Issue 4 · 22 Feb 2013 · 7,739 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractStudies on the Seasonal Changes in Antioxidant Enzymes Activity on Differently, Polluted Areas along the Bay of Bengal Employing Perna viridis as an Animal ModelC. Amutha, P. SubramanianAntioxidants are the innate or acquired molecules capable of slowing down or preventing the oxidative damage (damage due to reactive oxygen species) that caused by free radicals. The antioxidant enzyme activity in response to season as well as hydrocarbon pollution was attempted. Rayapuram fishing harbor of Chennai (Station-1) is highly oil contaminated with oil sleeks on the surface. The relatively … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 2 · 31 Jul 2012 · 7,667 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractQuercetin in Dimethyl Benzanthracene Induced Breast Cancer in RatsNatla Sashidhar Reddy, Parthasarathy Nirmala, Natesan Chidambaram, Pammi Ashok kumarProblem statement: Vincristine a commonly used anticancer agent in the treatment of breast cancer results in serious adverse effects like teratogenicity, neurotoxicity and carcinogenicity on long term use. Drug resistance is also a common problem encountered with vincristine. Hence the effect of flavonol quercetin, a known antioxidant with no known documented adverse effect was tried in treatment of DMBA induced … …American Journal of Pharmacology and Toxicology, Vol. 7, Issue 2 · 30 Jul 2012 · 8,138 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractPhyllanthus Amarus Facilitates the Recovery of Peripheral Nerve after InjuryPanakpaporn Wannannond, Jintanaporn Wattanathorn, Supaporn Muchimapura et al.Problem statement: Peripheral nerve injuries are associated with morbidity and outcomes of peripheral nerve repair are poor. Moreover, it can subsequently leads to economic or social disability. Recent findings have shown that oxidative stress plays an important role on the functional recovery retardation of peripheral nerve. However, the impairment mentioned earlier is counteracted by antioxidant. Therefore, this study was carried … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 7 · 10 May 2012 · 7,098 accessesView PDFCite
