Raeuschel (Family-Sapindaceae) is a medicinal plant used traditionally for the treatment of various health risks like pain, inflammation, ulcers and wounds in Bangladesh. This study determined the polyphenolic compounds and evaluated the analgesic, anti-inflammatory and antioxidant effects of the ethanol extract of Allophylus cobbe leaves. High Performance Liquid Chromatography (HPLC) analysis was used to determine the polyphenolic … …American Journal of Pharmacology and Toxicology, Vol. 9, Issue 4 · 27 Jan 2015 · 8,155 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractCombination of Statistical Techniques for Submerged Fermentation for Extracellular Polysaccharide and Biomass of Ganoderma tsugaeNukrob Narkprasom, Jia-Hsin Guo, Tzou-Chi Huang, Yuan-Kuang GuuBiomass and extracellular polysaccharide of Ganoderma tsugae have various biological activity including anti-inflamatory activity, antioxidant activity and antitumor activity. However, the growth rate of G. tsugae in nature is very slow. Therefore, many studies have attempted to develop mass culture systems for G. tsugae using laboratory techniques. Many parameters of submerged fermentation for G. tsugae were studies to determine the … …Current Research in Biostatistics, Vol. 3, Issue 2 · 4 Jul 2014 · 7,613 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractASCORBIC ACID FOLIIAR SPRAY COUNTERACTING EFFECT OF SALINITY ON GROWTH, NUTRIENTS CONCENTRATIONS, PHOTOSYNTHESIS, ANTIOXIDANT ACTIVITIES AND LIPID PEROXIDATION OF BEAN (PHASEULUS VULGARIS L.) CULTIVARSZeinab A. Salama, El-Zanaty A.A. Abou El-Nour, Mohamed M. El Fouly, Alaa A. GaafarA water culture experiment was carried out in the Department of Fertilization Technology at National Research Centre, Cairo, Egypt, to investigate the effect of Ascorbic Acid (AsA) foliar application and salinity stress (100 ppm and 100 mmoL NaCl) on growth, nutrients concentration and some biochemical parameters of two kidney bean (Phaseulus Vulgaris L.) cultivars. Salinity caused significant reduction in growth … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 3 · 16 May 2014 · 7,906 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractMELATONIN PROTECTS THE INTEGRITY OF GASTRIC STRUCTURE FROM A STERILE TISSUE INJURY AND AUGMENTS BOTH MONONUCLEAR AND POLYMORPHONUCLEAR PERIPHERAL BLOOD CELLS INDUCED BY THE INJURY IN WISTAR ALBINO RATSBahjat Al-AniPeptic ulcer is a common upper gastrointestinal disease that remains a major public health problem. Gastric ulceration caused by Nonsteroidal Anti-Inflammatory Drugs (NSAID), stress and alcohol are the common causes of gastric ulcer formation in humans following helicobacter pylori bacterial infection of the stomach. The neurohormone, melatonin was reported to protect against NSAID- and stress-induced gastric lesions. We sought to … …American Journal of Pharmacology and Toxicology, Vol. 9, Issue 2 · 17 Mar 2014 · 7,230 accessesView PDFCite
