Proper seed germination is important for seedling establishment and growth in fields under drought caused by climate change. In the present study, beneficial effects of hydrogen peroxide on were investigated proteome analysis. Sorghum seeds subjected to stress adjusted various water potentials 0, −0.2, −0.5 MPa using polyethylene glycol (PEG) 6000 treated with at different concentrations (0, 10...

Industrial hemp (Cannabis sativa L.) as a grain and fiber crop is experiencing resurgence in North America. Due to governmental prohibition, there has been limited information on regional agronomic production systems including basic seed germination. This study was initiated provide the relationship between temperature germination seed. Germination measured at constant temperatures ranging from...

Humoral and cellular immune responses are currently induced against hepatitis C virus (HCV) core following vaccination with core-encoding plasmids. However, the anti-core antibody response is frequently weak or transient. In this paper, we evaluated the effect of different additives and DNA-protein combinations on the anti-core antibody response. BALB/c mice were intramuscularly injected with a...

Deterioration of seeds is an important problem leading to low germination and uneven crop establishment causing poor growth productivity. Soil salinity another factor limiting cultivation. Spermidine (Spd) a compound widely reported for diminishing adverse effects salt stress in plants. In this study, the Spd priming on normal deteriorated rice were investigated under during young seedling stag...

The objective of the present study was to evaluate the effect of different plasticizers on the ethylcellulose coatings of capsules and its timed release characteristics. Various plasticizers such as dibutyl phthalate (DBP), triacetin (TA), glycerol, triethyl citrate (TEC), polyethylene glycol-4000 and polyethylene glycol-6000 (PEG) were studied. The physicochemical properties of the casted poly...

glibenclamide (glib) is a poorly soluble drug with formulation-dependent bioavailability. therefore, we attempted in this study to improve glib dissolution rate by preparing drug solid dispersions by solvent evaporation (se) and supercritical fluid solvent-antisolvent techniques (scf-sas). a d-optimal mixture design was used to investigate the effects of different ratios of hpmc e5 (50-100%), p...

Background Microparticles are one of drug delivery systems designed for sustained and controlled release drugs a long period time. Clotrimazole is broad-spectrum antifungal agent, which generally used treatment Candida albicans others fungal infections. Objective The present study aims to fabricate microparticles using beeswax (lipophilic coating) polyethylene glycol (hydrophilic coating). Meth...

Background: Because of the close relationship between seed coat color and forage quality, it is great significance to reveal effect on germination seedling growth under drought stress. Methods: We explore different colors (yellow, dark brown) alfalfa simulated stress (polyethylene glycol (PEG-6000) with eight osmotic potentials: 0 MPa, -0.1 -0.2 -0.3 -0.4 -0.6 -0.8 -1.0 MPa). Result: Under cont...

The main aim of the present investigation was to develop in situ gelling mucoadhesive liquid suppositories of ondansetron by using mucoadhesive polymers such as sodium alginate, methyl cellulose and polyvinylpyrrolidone. Polyethylene glycol was used to modify gelation temperature. Mucoadhesive liquid suppositories of ondansetron were prepared by adding mucoadhesive polymers (0.8% w/w) to the fo...
