Sodium valproate and tomato extract have been studied in different experimental models of epilepsy individually. The aim of the present study was to evaluate the effect of lycopene on the antiepileptic effects of sodium valproate against pentylenetetrazol-induced kindling in mice. Swiss albino mice of either sex were randomly divided into 5 groups, with each group containing 8 mice. These group...

BACKGROUND Sodium metabisulfite is added to a commercial propofol emulsion as an antimicrobial agent. The sulfite ion (SO3(-2)) is capable of undergoing a number of reactions, including autooxidation and the promotion of lipid peroxidation. This study evaluated sulfite reactivity in propofol emulsions by determining thiobarbituric acid reacting substances (TBARS), sulfite depletion, and emulsio...

the present work was carried out to study the effect of vacuum packaging and pomegranate peel extract (pe) treatments on the quality of pacific white shrimp (peneous vannamei) during refrigerated storage. changes in ph, thiobarbituric acid (tba), total volatile base nitrogen (tvb-n), trimethylamine (tma), aerobic plate counts, psychrophilic, lactic acid bacteria and enterobacteriaceae counts, m...
