copper amine oxidases (caos) catalyse the oxidative de-amination of biogenic amines which are ubiquitous compounds essential for cell growth and proliferation. the enzymes are homodimers containing both topaquinone and a cu(ii) ions as cofactors at the active site of each subunit. after extraction and purification of chickpea (cicer arietinum) amine oxidase by chromatoghraphy, km and vmax of th...

melanin pigment plays a critical role in camouflage and   protection against harmful effects of solar radiation. melanogenesis is under   complex regulatory control by multiple agents. tyrosinase is a   multifunctional, which catalyzes the first two steps in mammalian   melanogenesis. in this study, inhibitory effects of astragalus fasciculifolius   and astragalus gypsicolus on diphenolase acti...

genistein is a soya isoflavone, which is found naturally in legumes, such as soybeans and chickpeas. the intraperitoneal administration of the optimum dose (200 mg/kg) of genistein 24 h and 15 minbefore irradiation (8 gy at a dose rate of 1.02 gy/min) recovered the deficit in protein content (28.63±1.44%) and the dna content (21.61±8.19%) if an average of 5 intervals of autopsies 1st, 3rd, 7th,...

In this work, the essential oil of black pine (Pinus nigra J. F. Arnold) was used for first time as a natural, ecological, and sustainable corrosion inhibitor acid cleaning carbon steel. The extracted by hydrodistillation using Clevenger-type apparatus, analyzed gas chromatography–flame–ionization detection (GC–FID) chromatography–mass spectrometry (GC–MS). most abundant components in were ?-pi...
