this study presented a mini review on folic acid deficiency and recommendations for its supplementation in thalassemia intermedia (ti). ti is a clinical condition which lies between thalassemia major and thalassemia minor. although ti patients may not need regular blood transfusion, precise diagnosis and management are critical for the prevention of clinical complications and quality of life im...


 Red beets in Mexico are used the colorants industry, but their juice bagasse (RBB) can be carbohydrates for ethanol production. The present study aims to pretreatment of red beet using acid (H2SO4) and alkali (NaOH) improve availability sugars. Also, describe quantitatively hydrolysates microbial growth, substrate consumption, production with simulation data kinetics logistic, Pirt, Lued...

The current research investigated the regulation of monogalactosyldiacylglycerol (MGDG) biosynthesis, catalyzed by MGDG synthase (MGD) (UDP-galactose:1,2-diacylglycerol 3-beta-D-galactosyltransferase; EC 2.4.1.46), during chloroplast development in cucumbers (Cucumis sativus L. cv. Aonagajibai). In etiolated seedlings, white light induced a transient increase in MGD mRNA, followed by a subseque...

Several studies report that the plasma antioxidant capacity (PAC) increases after a single ingestion of red wine. However, data on the different behaviour of PAC after food intake in subjects of the same sex are still lacking. On the basis of these observations some investigations were undertaken in order to evaluate the effects of red wine intake on PAC in a homogeneous groups of healthy femal...

Basic Violet 14, Direct Red 28 and Acid Red 26 are classified as carcinogenic dyes in the European textile ecology standard, despite insufficient toxicity data. In this study, the toxicity of these dyes was assessed in a zebrafish model, and the underlying toxic mechanisms were investigated. Basic Violet 14 and Direct Red 28 showed acute toxicity with a LC50 value at 60.63 and 476.84 µg ml(-1) ...

The experiment was conducted to investigate the effects of artemia enriched with lipid emulsions containing highly unsaturated fatty acids on growth and survival of juvenile freshwater crayfish Astacus leptodactylus. Juvenile crayfish were fed artemia enriched with commercial emulsions (red pepper and olio ω3) and un-enriched artemia (control). The highest eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) level was ...

To investigate the role of hepatic 18-carbon fatty acids (FA) accumulation in regulating CYP2A5/2A6 and the significance of Nrf2 in the process during hepatocytes steatosis, Nrf2-null, and wild type mice fed with high-fat diet (HFD), and Nrf2 silenced or over expressed HepG2 cells administered with 18-carbon FA were used. HE and Oil Red O staining were used for mice hepatic pathological examina...
