Fenugreek seeds possess antioxidant effects and contain a mucilage which has emollient properties. It can also produce skin healing, whitening, moisturizing, skin soothening and antiwrinkle effects. The purpose of study was to formulate a stable W/O emulsion containing fenugreek seeds extract using liquid paraffin oil. Fenugreek seeds extract, which was obtained by concentrating methanolic extr...

BACKGROUND/AIMS The purpose of this study was to explore the in vitro putative genotoxicity during exposure of Neuro-2a cells to radiofrequency electromagnetic fields (RF-EMFs) with or without silencing of 8-oxoG DNA glycosylase-1 (OGG1). METHODS Neuro-2a cells treated with or without OGG1 siRNA were exposed to 900 MHz Global System for Mobile Communication (GSM) Talk signals continuously at ...

Here the canonical contact structure ξ0 on a lens space L(p, q) is the descendant of the distribution of complex lines on S = {(z1, z2) | |z1| + |z2| = 1} under the quotient map S → L(p, q) of the Zp-action (z1, z2) 7→ (μpz1, μpz2). (Here μp = exp( √ −1 p ), and p, q are relatively prime and 0 < q < p.) The contact structure ξ0 induces a canonical orientation on L(p, q) where a volume form is g...

having proper house and shelter is one of the basic human rights this because of various roles and functions of housing.housing satisfaction is a multidimensional and complex variable which includes social, economic and managerial dimensions of houseand their surrounding environment’s. for this reason, evaluation of housing, from points residentsviews is very important.satisfaction in this case...

A Flat Neighborhood Network (FNN) is a new interconnection network architecture that can provide very low latency and high bisection bandwidth at a minimal cost for large clusters. However, unlike more traditional designs, FNNs generally are not symmetric. Thus, although an FNN by definition offers a certain base level of performance for random communication patterns, both the network design an...

This document defines a portion of the Management Information Base (MIB) for use with network management protocols in the Internet community. In particular, it describes objects for configuring parameters of the Neighborhood Discovery Protocol (NHDP) process on a router. The MIB module defined in this document, denoted NHDP-MIB, also reports state, performance information, and notifications abo...

Abstract. A study on physicochemical characteristics of Ceiba petandra and Lannea kerstingii stem bark extracts cream being developed for the treatment of topical dermatophytic infections has been carried out to assure safe, effectiveness and stability during storage and usage. The stem barks of Ceiba petandra and Lannea kerstingii were extracted with methanol and ethyl acetate respectively. Th...

A current trend in the development of spatial-relation ontologies is to capture more and more details about the geometries of the spatial objects that are related, primarily by topological relations. In an effort to bridge between often disparate approaches, a reference system for topological relations between compound spatial objects is introduced. Its framework comprises the base relations’ c...
