Background & Aim:Extracts of Roselle calyx,   possess compounds which could be considered as a great source of natural antioxidants.   In this project, antioxidant activities, phenolic compounds content and their   correlation analysis on calices of Roselle (Hibiscus sabdariffa) was investigated.  Experimental: Total polyphenolic compound, flavonoids and anthoc...

animal agricultural production systems are major sources of nonpoint pollution affecting quality of water sources. nitrogen has been identified as the foremost source of nonpoint water pollution  and the potential negative impacts of n have become an area of public concern. protein degradation from feed ingredients is an important factorinfluencing aa supply to the duodenum. ruminal proteolysis...

Adipocytokines, hormones secreted from adipose tissue, have been shown to be associated with many cancers such as breast, prostate and colorectal cancer. Recent studies have indicated that resistin and visfatin, two of these adipokines have high level plasma concentrations in colorectal cancer patients and may be promising biomarkers for colorectal cancer. The aim of this study was to identify ...

in this paper, a new circuit is proposed for step-up z-source inverter based on qzsi (quasi-z-source inverter). the proposed topology inherits all advantages of the conventional topology. the proposed topology in comparison with conventional topology reduces the st (shoot-through) duty cycle by over 25% at the same voltage boost factor. theoretical analysis of the proposed qzsi in the st and no...

Background and Objectives: Roselle (Hibiscus sabdariffa L.) is one of the valuable plants grown in tropical and subtropical regions such as some parts of Iran. Roselle calyces are commonly used to make  herbal tea as well as a natural food color additive. However, Roselle seeds are usually discarded as by–products, while they can be used as a source of nutritious and functional compo...

background one disadvantage of expressing heterologous proteins in escherichia coli is that the proteins are frequently expressed as insoluble inclusion bodies. to avoid this problem, heterologous proteins are typically expressed as a fusion protein. maltose binding protein (mbp) is one of the widely used partners for production of recombinant fusion proteins in e. coli. mbp is among the most e...
