Quinonoid constituents as contact sensitisers in Australian blackwood (Acacia melanoxylon RBR).
Australian blackwood (Acacia melanoxylon RBR) is a valuable commercial timber that since 1925 has been incriminated as being injurious to health. In addition to toxic effects numerous cases of allergic contact dermatitis and bronchial asthma have been observed in woodworkers. Several constituents have been identified in recent years, but none of them could be considered as aetiological factors....
متن کاملHierarchical patterns of correlated mating in Acacia melanoxylon.
Pollen of acacias is transported by insects as polyads, composite pollen grains. The polyad has enough pollen grains to fertilize all ovules within a flower and hence all seed within a pod may be full sibs. Isozyme markers were used to test this hypothesis in two populations of Acacia melanoxylon R.Br. The proportions of fruit pods with multiple paternity detected in two populations were 0.08 a...
متن کاملThe role of topical traditional chinese medicaments as contact sensitisers in chronic venous leg ulcer patients.
INTRODUCTION Leg ulcers are a chronic condition affecting the older population. In Singapore, the use of topical traditional Chinese medicaments (TTCM) is common amongst those older than 65 years of age. We study the role of TTCM as contact sensitisers in patients with chronic venous leg ulcers and its impact in the clinical management of these patients. MATERIALS AND METHODS Patients with ch...
متن کاملBiosynthesis of Silver Nanoparticles Using Leaves of Acacia Melanoxylon and their Application as Dopamine and Hydrogen Peroxide Sensors
In this work, we described a cost-effective and environmentally friendly technique for green synthesis of colloidal silver nanoparticles from aqueous extract of fresh leaves of Acacia melanoxylon and its application as a dopamine and hydrogen peroxide sensor. The prepared silver nanoparticles were characterized by UV-Visible absorption spectroscopy, X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron mi...
متن کاملTWO METHODS FOR TREE VOLUME ESTIMATION OF Acacia melanoxylon IN PORTUGAL
Two models were developed to evaluate total volume under and over-bark of Blackwood (Acacia melanoxylon R. Br.) stand trees. By variance analysis regarding volume with and without bark it was confirmed that trees age is responsible for 48 to 50% of its volumetric behaviour. Considered the averages of those variables and regarding the three homogeneous groups of the studied sites, a single model...
