radiation damage is to a large extent caused by overproduction of reactive oxygen species (ros). radioprotectors are agents or substances that reduce the effects of radiation in healthy normal tissues while maintaining the sensitivity to radiation damage in tumor cells. radioprotectors are agents or substances that reduce the effects of radiation in healthy normal tissues while maintaining the ...

in this work, the study of various substituted kaempferol derivatives is presented. the bond dissociation energies (bde) have been calculated using b3lyp level and different basis sets in gas-phase. calculated results show that the bde values of substituted kaempferol range from about 77 to100 kcal/mol, demonstrating that kaempferol is an effective chain-breaking antioxidant that prevents lipid...

a simple, fast, efficient and environmentally friendly method for synthesis of benzimidazole and its 2-alkyl, aryl and heteroaryl substituted derivatives was developed using zeolite hy. two component cyclolcondensation of 1,2-phenylenediamine (o-phenylenediamine) and commercially available carboxylic acids catalyzed by zeolite hy without any solvent, under microwave irradiation led to formation...

background: celiac disease (cd) is an immune mediated condition that leads to small bowel atrophy that resolves with a gluten free diet (gfd). extra-intestinal manifestations of cd include hypertransaminasemia. in this study, the effects of a gfd on hypertransaminasemia in patients with newly diagnosed cd were studied. methods: ninety eight new diagnosed consecutive patients with cd 40 males an...

background: vitiligo is an acquired, idiopathic disorder characterized by circumscribed depigmented macules and patches. the exact etiology and pathogenesis of vitiligo is not clear. many theories have been presented regarding this subject among them aautoimmune theory is the most important one. the association of vitiligo with other autoimmune disorders has been reported, but the relationship ...

the present study was designed to explore the flavonoid contents and the radical scavenging activities of 50% ethanol extracts of leaves, stems, rachis and roots of dryopteris erythrosora. the total flavonoid contents in various parts were determined as: stems > roots > rachis > leaves. all extracts from different parts of d. erythrosora showed strong bioactivities. the dpph free radical scaven...

tolerable gluten thresholds in gluten free products have long been debated together with issues of cross contamination of gluten free cereals during the milling process. it is well established that a totally gluten free diet is virtually impossible owing to the presence of traces of gluten. it is estimated that daily consumption of gluten from contaminated gluten free foods is in the range of 5...

the concepts of free modules, projective modules, injective modules and the likeform an important area in module theory. the notion of free fuzzy modules was introducedby muganda as an extension of free modules in the fuzzy context. zahedi and ameriintroduced the concept of projective and injective l-modules. in this paper we give analternate definition for projective l-modules. we prove that e...
