Jujube is a characteristic light-demanding fruit tree, but quality frequently degraded because of the weak light in protected cultivation facilities south China. In this study, black shade net was used to set three intensities artificially: no shading (0%, control, NS), moderate (45%, MS), and severe (76%, SS) investigate effect low on sugar metabolism jujube. Compared with NS, chlorophyll caro...

Jujube is a crop very resistant to drought and salinity, making it an interesting growing alternative in southeastern Spain. The characteristics of five different cultivars the jujube fruit have been evaluated classified into four maturation stages according color peel, ranging from green its most immature stage, white, yellow, red last, more mature stage. This due part amount carotenoids chlor...

Chronic ethanol consumption leads to oxidative stress in the heart and erythrocytes of rats. As Ziziphus jujuba fruit has been shown to have potent antioxidants, such as flavonoids, we conducted this study to evaluate the effects of aqueous fruit extracts from Z. jujuba on rat hearts and erythrocytes following chronic ethanol consumption. Twenty-eight male Wistar rats were randomly divided into...

the aim of the present study was to evaluate hypnotic effect of coriandrum sativum, ziziphus jujuba , lavandula angustifolia and melissa officinalis hydroalcoholic extracts in mice to select the most effective ones for a combination formula. three doses of the extracts (250, 500 and 1000 mg/kg of c. sativum and z. jujuba and 200, 400 and 800 mg/kg of l. angustifolia and m. officinalis ) were or...

objective(s):the neuroprotective effect offruit aqueous extract of ziziphus jujuba lam on glucose-induced neurotoxicity in pc12 cells as an appropriate in vitro model of diabetic neuropathy was investigated. materials and methods: cell viability was determined by the mtt assay. cellular reactive oxygen species (ros) generation was measured by dcfh-da analysis. cleaved caspase-3, a biochemical p...
