The study assessed the individual and interactive role of acetylsalicylic acid (ASA) nitric oxide (NO) against excess copper (Cu) concentrations. Excess Cu significantly reduced growth photosynthesis, although application ASA NO mitigated reduction with much visible effect in their combination. oxidative effects have been evident as increased reactive oxygen species (ROS) production, resulting ...

Biodiesel or known as fatty acid methyl ester (FAME), is a diesel fuel substitute derived from the transesterification reaction of triglycerides with alcohol in presence suitable catalyst. The demand for biodiesel increasing due to environmental and health awareness, well diminishing energy security. However, impurities will affect engine performance by corroding tubes damaging injectors. Commo...

Fungi in the Fusarium genus produce trichothecene mycotoxins including deoxynivalenol (DON) and T-2 toxin which may elicit their damaging effects on gastrointestinal tract following consumption of contaminated cereal-based foods. The aim our study was to evaluate these commonly occurring fusarotoxins alone combination using human, non-cancerous intestinal epithelial cell line HIEC-6. Based expe...

BACKGROUND Fenton reaction (Fe2++H2O2→Fe3++•OH+OH-) is of special significance in the thyroid gland, as both its substrates, i.e. H2O2 and Fe2+, are required for thyroid hormone synthesis. Also iodine, an essential element supplied by the diet, is indispensable for thyroid hormone synthesis. It is well known that iodine affects red-ox balance. One of the most frequently examined oxidative proce...
