Antioxidant activity of skin from runner peanut was performed on sunflower refined oil. The skin was obtained from industrial blanching process. The oil was oxidized at 60oC. The methanolic extracts show antioxidant activity in relation to the oil (without additives). However these extracts do not reach the activity level from BHT.

This study aimed at assessing the ability of sunflower to remediate zinc (Zn) impacted soils and partitioning factors Zn in soil-plants interactions. The research method used ex situ experiments using teddy bear seeds with 8 different treatments for each. began preparation sample soil media on garden soil, seeding seeds. was carried out six months starting August - December 2020, Helianthus ann...

a knowledge of physical properties of sunflower seed is essential for the design and development of such processing equipment as handling, separating, dehulling and storing. in this research, physical properties of sunflower seed, (azargol variety as a case of study, was investigated at various moisture contents (3-14% d.b) and in three categories of big, average and small sizes samples. the re...

PURPOSE Besides its application in oncology, 18F-FDG PET-CT imaging is also useful in the diagnosis of certain lung infections, inflammatory diseases, and atherosclerotic plaques. Myocardial uptake of 18F-FDG may hamper visualization of the lesions caused by these diseases. Two approaches have been proposed for reducing myocardial uptake in preclinical studies, namely, calcium channel blockers ...

Sunflower (Helianthus annuus L.) is largely consumed in Iran as an oleaginous and confectionery product. In this study, the total phenolic and flavonoid contents, antioxidant activity and phenolic composition in different parts of the seeds from six sunflower genotypes were investigated. The antioxidant activity of extract was evaluated by different assays. The total phenolic and flavonoid cont...

The thermal conductivity of sunflower seed was determined as a function of moisture content, bulk density and temperature which varies from 0.1 to 30.48% (w.b.) and 437.14 to 352.5 kg/m and 22 to 46°C, 3 respectively. The slope of the linear portion ( T versus ln(t)) method was used to analyze the line source heating data for thermal conductivity determination. Bulk density of sunflower seeds f...
