Ankyropetalum extracts were obtained by using two different extractors (Soxhlet and ultrasonic bath). The phenol, flavonoid, DPPH, FRAP, antimicrobial activity properties of the investigated. In addition, fatty acid composition was determined in GC-MS. High values found A. reuteri gypsophiloides for total phenolic flavonoid contents, respectively. DPPH FRAP high arsusianum gypsophiloides, Bette...

Multi-pound production of nylon-1313 demonstrates that there are no serious obstacles to commercial production of this long-chain polyamide. The synthesis of nylon-1313 is remarkably simple and straightforward when compared to the reactions required to produce nylon-11 and -12. In many ways nylon-1313 is comparable to these other nylons, but it is lower melting, slightly less dense, and more hy...

Antibacterial activity of various solvent extracts of Eruca sativa seed as well as seed oil was investigated against Gram+ve and Gram-ve bacterial strains. Maximum zone of inhibition was observed from seed oil followed by methanolic seed extracts from all bacterial strains compared with broad spectrum antibiotics gentamicine. MIC values of seed oil were within the ranges of 5272 μg/ml as compar...

Abstract: Seeds of many peony species contain a large amount oil. However, the exploiting its potential for oil production is hampered by lack basic information regarding developmental biology seeds. Our aim was to obtain detailed relationship between seed development and accumulation various storage compounds Paeonia lactiflora ‘Hangshao’ seed. were collected at five stages including 30 days a...

An updated platform was developed to underpin association genetics studies in the polyploid crop species Brassica napus (oilseed rape). Based on 1.92 × 1012 bases of leaf mRNAseq data, functional genotypes, comprising 355 536 single-nucleotide polymorphism markers and transcript abundance were scored across a genetic diversity panel of 383 accessions using a transcriptome reference comprising 1...

An AOCS collaborative study was conducted to determine the effectiveness of sensory analysis and gas chromatographic analyses of volatile compounds in measuring vegetable oils for levels of oxidation that ranged from none to high. Sixteen laboratories from industry, government, and academia in Canada and the United States participated in the study to evaluate the flavor quality and oxidative st...
