Homogenates of pea (Pisum sativum L., var. Alaska) seedlings exposed to (14)C-indole-3-acetic acid or (14)C-3-methyleneoxindole, an oxidation product of indole-3-acetic acid, were extracted with phenol. In both cases 90% of the bound radioactivity was found associated with the protein fraction and 10% with the water-soluble, ethanol-insoluble fraction. The binding of radioactivity from (14)C-in...

Objective: In this study, we elucidated the ameliorative effect of aqueous extract of leaves of Mumiju against acetic acid-induced experimental colitis in male rats. Materials and Methods: The animals were randomly divided into four groups (n=7) including I: control group, II: vehicle group (injected with 2 ml acetic acid (4%) intra rectally), III and IV: treatment groups which received Mumiju ...

Mexican lime is one of the commercial citrus cultivars in the world, which is commonly used as a citrus rootstock in the southern regions of Iran. This cultivar is one of the most sensitive citrus cultivars to cold stress and is used as a cold-sensitive plant in many citrus studies. This study aimed to investigate the effect of melatonin (0 and 500 μM), mannitol (0 and 50 μM), acetic acid (0 an...

Background: Colitis is an inflammatory bowel disease, which is treated effectively with antioxidant and anti-inflammatory drugs. This study evaluated the anti-inflammatory effects of the extracts of Viola odorata and Cassia fistula on the acetic acid-induced colitis in rats. Methods: We determined the total contents of phenols, alkaloids, saponins, and tannins in the plants’ extracts. Further...

The crystal structure of the title adamantane derivative, C(12)H(18)O(3), has been determined by X-ray diffraction. The structure is stabilized by inter-molecular O-H⋯O hydrogen bonds, forming a chain.

In the title mol-ecule, C(8)H(7)BrO(2), the carboxyl group is twisted by 76.2 (3)° from the benzene ring plane. In the crystal, mol-ecules are linked into inversion dimers through pairs of O-H⋯O hydrogen bonds. The dimers are further linked into layers parallel to the bc plane by weak C-H⋯O hydrogen bonds.
