Streptozotocin used to make diabetogenic rats produce hyperglycemia conditions test animals high-fat diet model obesity. This stu...

The title compound, C18H24O2, was isolated from the leaves extract of Ficus carica L. The cyclo-hexane ring displays a chair conformation whereas the cyclo-hexa-1,4-diene ring adopts a flattened boat conformation with methyl C atoms at the prow and stern. In the crystal, mol-ecules are linked by weak C-H⋯O hydrogen bonds into supra-molecular chains propagated along the b-axis direction.

A major portion of the Iranian fig (Ficus carica) industry is located in high-salinity regions, and salinity is an important limiting factor in the production of this fruit. The present study was conducted to investigate the changes of leaf antioxidant-enzyme activity, proline and total protein content in two fig cultivars with two leaf shapes: ‘Anjir Sabz’ with lobate and palmate leaves, and ‘...
