In a pot experiment, we assessed the potential of purslane (Portulaca oleracea) as phytoremediation species in Cr(VI)-contaminated soils. We focused on evaluation phytotoxic Cr(VI) effects at concentrations reaching 150 mg kg?1 and possible stress amelioration effect nitrogen Cr(VI)-stressed plants. Treatments were T-0 (control), T-1 (25 kg?1), T-2 = 50 kg?1, T-3 100 T-4 kg?1. measured concentr...

Objective: The present study was performed to evaluate the effects of hydro-alcoholic extract of Portulaca oleracea (P. oleracea) seeds and Vitamin C on biochemical and hemodynamic parameters in cardiac tissue of rats with subclinical hyperthyroidism. Materials and Methods: Forty eight male rats were divided into six groups of 8 and treated for 4 weeks. T4 group received daily injection of levo...

Objective: The effects of Portulaca oleracea (P. oleracea; PO) on total and differential WBC count, and oxidant/antioxidant biomarkers in bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (BALF) as well as on lung pathology in asthmatic rats were examined. Methods and Methods: Rats were randomly divided into; control group (C), asthma group, asthma groups treated with either P. oleracea (rats that received P...
