Two isolates belonging to Aspergillus section Fumigati were recovered from German soil on itraconazole containing agar media. Phylogenetic analysis and phenotypic characterization of both isolates show that they represent a novel species named Aspergillus oerlinghausenensis (holotype CBS H-22119(HT), ex-type CBS 139183(T) = IBT 33878 = DTO 316-A3). The species is phylogenetically related to A. ...

In this study, the process of vacuum impregnation Kangoo barley grain, at stage soaking, was used in production light malt. The influence on speed water uptake by barley, temperatures 12, 14, 16 and 18 °C, also analyzed. At research, grain soaked to obtain a moisture content approximately 42%. samples for tests were taken every 2 h. intended malt an air–water system kept submerged 6 It then rem...

Eriobotrya japonica has been used as a medicinal plant for a long time, and its leaves are known to have many physiological actions such as anti-inflammatory, antitussive, and expectoran. In contrast, Eriobotrya japonica seeds are only known to contain amygdalin, and almost no investigations of its pharmacological action have been performed. Moreover, some anticancer agents such as adriamycin c...

The extract from horse chestnut seeds (Aesculus hippocastanum L., Sapindaceae), standardised for the content of aescin, is used as the treatment for chronic venous insufficiency. It has anti-inflammatory and anti-oedematous properties and indicates a positive effect on the venous tone, rheological properties, and blood coagulability. The mechanism of horse chestnut seed extract/aescin activity ...

Oxidative stress plays an important role in chronic complications of diabetes. In the present study the antioxidant effect of oral administration of ethanolic extract of Eugenia jambolana seed kernel on tissue antioxidant enzymes and lipid peroxidation in liver and kidney of streptozotocin-induced diabetic rats was evaluated. Administration of seed kernel to diabetic rats significantly decrease...

the effects of dietary supplementation of grape seed extract (gse) and vitamin c on carcass characteristics, gut morphology and ileal microflora in broiler chickens exposed to chronic heat stress were examined. experimental diets included a control diet (without additive), 3 levels of gse (150, 300, 450 mg/kg of diet), and vitamin c (300 mg/kg of diet). each of the five diets was fed to 5 repli...

We evaluated ameliorative effects of Jamun seed and orange peel extracts on liver toxicity in cypermethrin exposed rat. Methods: Rats were given following treatments daily for 30 d: Group A: Control Group B: Rats received cypermethrin Group C: These rats received cypermethrin and Jamun seed extract simultaneously Group D: These rats received cypermethrin and orange peel extract simultaneou...

abstract there is a world-wide effort to reduce the amount of chemicals used in crop production by introducing modern biological and ecological methods. one possible alternative is allelopathy. a laboratory trial was carried out to investigate of alleopathic potential of angelica . in this study the effect of different concentrations of aqueous extract of angelica herb was investigated on seed ...

weed chemical control has negative results on agroecosystems. therefore, identification of cultivars tolerant to weeds has importance in nonchemical management. so, in this study, the tolerance of some alfalfa cultivars was studied to dodder. anexperiment was conducted at research farm and laboratory of shahed university in 2011. the farm experiment was done as split plot in time in randomized ...
