Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractShed Skin of Ophiophagus hannah: Structural Topography and In Vitro Permeation of Nicotine and PhenolA. Priprem, T. Pongjanyakul, C. Khamlert et al.Scales of the dorsal portions of shed skin of king cobras (Ophiophagus hannah) was used as the barrier membrane for in vitro permeation of nicotine and phenol at toxic or irritable concentration levels. The scales were placed between solutions of nicotine or phenol in a donor solution at pH 5.6 and a receptor solution at pH 7.4. Cumulative amounts of … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2007 · 6,735 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractPotential Air and Groundwater Pollution from Continuous High Land Application of Cheese WheyA.E. Ghaly, D.G. Rushton, N.S. MahmoudExperiments were performed, using eighteen 280 cm deep soil columns with 20 cm inside diameter, to determine the relative amounts of nitrogenous compounds leached and volatilized from soils receiving high application rates of cheese whey during two seasons. Three soils (loamy sand, sandy loam and sandy clay loam) and two cheese whey application rates (560 and 840 kg-N ha-1), that … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 9 · 30 Sep 2007 · 7,277 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSensitization of Photohemolysis by a New Extraction from Flowers and Aerial Parts of Cichorium Pumilum Jacq: Effects of Inulin and Hydrogen PeroxideM-Ali H. Al-Akhras, Amr Amin, Karima Mohammad et al.Addition of inulin and hydrogen peroxide to new photosensitizers extracted from the flowers and aerial parts of the chicory (Cichorium Pumilum Jacq) have been investigated. Some of the isolated photosensitizers remain unidentified compounds. Chicory extracts are found to be dependent on light and temperature. Higher photohemolysis rate was noticed under the influence of light as compared to temperature. The effect … …American Journal of Pharmacology and Toxicology, Vol. 2, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2007 · 7,716 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractIn Vitro Studies on the Effect of Phototoxicity of A New Photosensitizer Extracted from Flowers and Aerial Parts of Cichorium pumilumM-Ali H. Al-Akhras, Amr Amin, Karima Mohammad et al.New photosensitizers have been extracted from the flowers and aerial parts of the Cichorium pumilum Jacq (chicory). Chicory grows naturally in local wild areas and is known to cause quick death of only white sheep during its flowering season in autumn. Some of those isolated photosensitizers are yet to be further characterized. Preliminary investigations show a high degradation of isolated … …American Journal of Pharmacology and Toxicology, Vol. 2, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2007 · 7,753 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractPotential Environmental and Health Impacts of High Land Application of Cheese WheyA. E. Ghaly, N.S. Mahmoud, D.G. Rushton, F. ArabA laboratory scale experiment was carried out to study the transformation and transport of nitrogenous compounds in soils receiving high application rates of cheese whey (twice the nitrogen requirement for crops). The experimental apparatus consists of 36 soil columns constructed of 20 cm inside diameter PVC pipes. Three types of soil (sandy loam, loam and sandy clay loam) and three … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2007 · 8,155 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDetermination of Diloxanide Furoate and Metronidazole in Binary Mixture Using First Derivative of the Ratio-Spectra and High-Performance Liquid Chromatography-UV MethodsNora H. Al-ShaalanTwo methods are presented for simultaneous determination of diloxanide furoate and metronidazole. The first method depends on first derivative of the ratio-spectra by measurements of the amplitudes at 242.5 and 285.5 nm for diloxanide furoate and 225.5 and 300 nm for metrinidazole. Calibration graphs were established for 2-100 μg mL-1 for diloxanide furoate and 1-50 μg mL-1 for metronidazole. In … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 2 · 28 Feb 2007 · 7,713 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractPharmacological Screening of Arceuthobium oxycedri (Dwarf Mistletoe) of Juniper Forest of PakistanMudassir Asrar Zaidi, Ahsan Huda, Sidney A. CrowThe local population of Balochistan, Pakistan considers the Juniperus excelsa an important medicinal plant. The species is facing a grave threat by a parasitic and epiphytic angiosperm, dwarf mistletoe, Arceuthobium oxycedri (DC) M. Bieb (Viscaceae). The methanolic extract of A. oxycedri was studied for its chemical composition and biologically active compounds for the first time. The extract was assayed for … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 2 · 31 Dec 2006 · 7,001 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractRole of AP-1 Antagonism in Growth Inhibition of Cervical Cancer Cell Lines by RetinoidsShennan Lu, Doris M. BenbrookRetinoid compounds induce multiple molecular effects that need to be taken into consideration in the development of theses agents as pharmaceuticals for cancer chemoprevention. Inhibition of cancer cell growth by retinoids is thought to occur through at least two mechanisms of transcriptional regulation resulting from direct binding of retinoids to nuclear retinoid receptors (RARs and RXR’s). First, the nuclear receptors … …American Journal of Pharmacology and Toxicology, Vol. 1, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2006 · 7,477 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractOn Application of Carhart Atom Pairs to Predict Anticonvulsant ActivityAlan Talevi, Julian J. Prieto, Luis E. Bruno-Blanch, Eduardo CastroAbout 50 million people in the world suffer from epilepsy, especially in childhood, adolescence and old age. Available treatment fails to control epilepsy in up to 30% of affected people. In developing countries, however, the amount of patients that do not receive adequate treatment climbs up to 75%. Moreover, the new generation of antiepileptic drugs (AEDs) causes important central and … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 2, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2006 · 6,857 accessesView PDFCite
