the effect of mentha spicata l. extract on the corrosion behaviour of carbon steel in 1.0 m hcl solution was investigated using polarization, electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (eis) and electrochemical noise (en) techniques. the solution containing 250 ppm of the ethanolic solution of extract showed the highest inhibition efficiency (ie). the effect of temperature on the rate of corrosion ...

conclusions despite the fact that abnormalities in p53 and p27kip1 may be involved in the development of oscc, their clinical significance in the studied population seems limited. further investigation on the combined p53/p27kip1 expression may be helpful in predicting the biologic behavior of this tumor. results p53 and p27kip1 expression were found in 28.57% (8 positive versus 20 negative) an...

metal ions are the main impurities of water and media ingredients used in fermentation processes. in this research, the effect of ca+2, co+2, cu+2, fe+2, mg+2, mn+2 and zn+2 as chloride and sulfate salts was studied on the clavulanic acid production and streptomyces clavuligerus growth. all chloride salts had negative effect on clavulanic acid production and no clavulanic acid was produced in t...

In this work, electrochemical methods such as Tafel polarization and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) were used to study the inhibition efficiency of Nettle leaves hydroalcoholic extract as a green corrosion inhibitor of API 5L carbon steel in 0.5 M H2SO4 solution. The results showed that the inhibition efficiency was increased with increasing the concentration of the extract and th...

background: factor viii administration to hemophilia a patients results in an immune response (inhibitor formation) which significantly complicates the therapy. the present study was performed to determine the prevalence of inhibitor development in hemophilia a patients receiving recombinant factor viii therapy. materials and methods: this was an observational descriptive study. clotting factor...

the date palm fruit stalk borer is one of the most important pests of date palm in the world. biochemical properties of digestive proteases in oryctes elegans prell larvae were investigated in this research and optimal total proteolytic and trypsin activities were obtained at ph 9.0 and 11.0, respectively. activity staining of protease on sds-page showed one isoform. also, zymogram pattern of t...

Onion (Allium Cepa) contains high levels of flavonoids. Although there are many studies indicating the inhibitory effects of flavonoids on xanthine oxidase, there is no report on the effect of onion on this enzyme. Therefore, in the present study, the inhibitory effects of onion on xanthine oxidase are investigated. Fresh filtered juice of onion was prepared and its inhibitory effect on guine...

In this work, scaling tendency and amount of precipitation of barium sulfate (BaSO4) were determined; the process is depending on temperature, pressure and mixing ratio of injection and formation of waters. Results showed that BaSO4 precipitation is largely dependent on mixing ratio. Temperature and pressure had no influence on BaSO4 precipitation. Different sca...

linarin is a flavone glycoside in the plants flos chrysanthemi indici, buddleja officinalis, cirsium setosum, mentha arvensis and buddleja davidii, and has been reported to possess analgesic, antipyretic, anti-inflammatory and neuroprotective activities. in this paper, linarin was investigated for its ache inhibitory potential both in vitro and ex vivo. ellman’s colorimetric method was used for...

new series of spiroindeno[1,2-b]pyrido[2,3-d]pyrimidine-5,3′-indolines as new urease inhibitors were synthesized by the catalytic procedure in high yield and short reaction time. in this method, biacidic carbon was prepared as a novel heterogeneous acid and was subsequently used as an efficient catalyst in this synthesis. the inhibitory activities of synthesized compounds were tested against ja...
