[ 1 ] - The Effect of Oxalic Acid, the Pathogenicity Factor of Sclerotinia sclerotiorum on the Two Susceptible and Moderately Resistant Lines of Sunfl ower
Background: One of the main sunfl ower diseases is the white mold Sclerotinia sclerotiorum. The oxalic acid (OA), which is one of the main pathogenicity factors of this fungus, beside the direct toxicity on the host, has other functions such as the disruption of the cell wall and chelating out the calcium ions.Objectives: Regarding the importance of this disease, it is im...
[ 2 ] - Growth Inhibitory Impact of Peganum harmala L. on Two Breast Cancer Cell Lines
Background: ß-carbolines, harmaline and harmine, are the major alkaloids presenting in the seeds of the Peganum harmala L. These alkaloids are known as herbal active principals with potential use in pharmaceutical and medicine. Objectives: To assess the growth inhibitory effect of phyto-alkaloids, harmaline and harmine, on cancer cell lines. Method...
[ 3 ] - Single Base Extension and Fourier-Transform Infra-Red Spectroscopy Techniques; Further Approaches in Discriminating Hazelnut-Adulterated Olive Oil
Background:Confirmation of olive oil authenticity and particularly virgin olive oil has a great importance. Several advanced chemical and genetic analyses have been used to monitor especial components; however each has its limitations especially when detecting hazelnut-adulterated olive oil. Objectives:The objective of this research is to assess the presence of trace amoun...
[ 4 ] - Simple Sequence Repeats Amplification: a Tool to Survey the Genetic Background of Olive Oils
A reliable DNA extraction method for use on extra virgin olive oil based on a commercial kit was defined, and the possibility of using this DNA for fingerprinting the original cultivar was demonstrated. The genetic traceability of single-cultivar virgin olive oil from two cultivars (Carolea and Frantoio) was achieved by identifying the varieties from which they were produced. This involved the ...
[ 5 ] - Efficiency Normal and Loaded Parthenolide on Nano-meso Particles as Antiproliferative Agent Against Breast Cancer Cell Line In vitro
Background: Parthenolide is major sesquiterpene lactones present in Tanacetum parthenium (L.) Sch.Bip. (feverfew). This compound is known as herbal active principals with potential use in pharmaceutical and medicine. In order to solubility improving, analogue of Parthenolide, aminopropyl theoxy silane -mesoporous silica of Parthenolide, was synthesized as well. In this study, it was e...
[ 6 ] - استفاده از آنتی اکسیدانت های طبیعی (مواد غیر صابونی) از پساب کارخانجات روغن کشی زیتون به منظور بهبود پایداری بیودیزل در مقابل فساد اکسیداتیو
پساب های روغنی از جمله پساب هایی هستند که باعث آلودگی محیط زیست و آسیب شدید به حیات آبزیان می شود. لذا می توان از آنها در صنعت روغن بیودیزل به عنوان نگهدارنده ها (به تنهایی یا ترکیبی با آنتی اکسیدان های سنتزی) استفاده کرد. بیودیزل یک سوخت جایگزین سوخت دیزل می باشد و از واکنش استری چربی های گیاهی و روغن با استفاده از الکل در حضور یک کاتالیزور، تولید می گردد. مزایای آن کاهش تولید هیدروکربن های نس...
