OBJECTIVE Oxidation of oils has an important effect on nutritional and organoleptic properties of foodstuffs. Nowadays, new tendency has created a necessity to use natural compounds such as essential oils for producing functional foods. In this study, antioxidant, antifungal, and organoleptic properties of Zataria multiflora Boiss. (ZMEO) and Cinnamon zeylanicum essential oils (CZEO) have been ...

A field experiment was conducted during kharif 2015-17 to study the efficacy of growth retardants on physiology and yield pearl millet at Durgapura (Jaipur). Growth retardants, viz. cycocel mepiquat chloride were sprayed @ 250, 500 750 ppm tillering (40 DAS) flowering (60 stages. The laid out in randomized block design with 4 replications. Results showed that plant height decreased, whereas chl...

Propylene oxide (1,2-epoxypropane) is a nasal toxicant and weak site-of-contact carcinogen in the rodent. The current study was aimed at providing quantitative information on upper respiratory tract (URT) dosimetry of this vapor. Since depletion of nasal non-protein sulfhydryls (NPSH) may be important in the toxicity of this vapor and may serve as a biomarker for delivery of propylene oxide to ...

priming is one of the seed enhancement methods that might be resulted in increased seed performance (germination and emergence), seedling growth and plant yield under stress conditions, such as salinity, temperature and drought stress. in order to evaluate the effect of growth hormones on morphology characteristics and essential oil of basil under drought stress condition, a experiment was cond...

Winter savory (Satureja montana L.) is an important medicinal, aromatic, and honey plant. In Croatia, it widely distributed along the Adriatic coast, where frequently exposed to droughts. First, winter natural population with highest germination across different drought treatments after hydropriming was selected. Nine hundred seeds from each of three populations (P1, P2, P3) were hydroprimed (d...

Studies in animals and humans have established serum aflatoxin-albumin adducts as biomarkers of exposure to aflatoxin B1 (AFB1), a food-borne hepatocarcinogen. To assess the utility of measurements of aflatoxin-albumin adducts to predict risk of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), 123 male F344 rats were dosed with 20 microg of AFB1 daily for 5 weeks after randomization into three groups: no interv...
