This study was carried out to investigate the effect of differentpreservative solutions to improve the keeping quality of tuberose (Polianthes tuberosa cv. Single). These preservative solutions (treatments) were: T1= 2% sucrose + 200 mg/l AgNO3, T2= 2% sucrose + 200 mg/l AgNO3 + 25 mg/l citric acid, T3= 2% sucrose + 300 mg/l HQS, T4 = 2% sucrose + 300 mg/l HQS+ 25 mg/l citric acid, T5= 2% sucro...

The aim of this study was to assess the effect of carvacrol supplement as a dietary additive to rumen fermentors, fed a barley seed:alfalfa hay (70:30) ration and to compare its effect with monensin supplementation. The material was incubated with goat ruminal fluid and four different treatments were included: no additive (C), 7.5 mg/l monensin (M), 250 mg/l carvacrol (C250) and 500 mg/l carvac...

*Corresponding Author: [email protected] Abstract Carvacrol is a component of numerous aromatic plants which has been evaluated for substantial pharmacological properties. Although the carvacrol induced cytotoxicity has already been reported, but no such study have been made on human cervical cancer, HeLa and SiHa cells. Therefore, in the present study an attempt has been made to investigate t...

Objective: n present study effect of various factors including sucrose, agar, PEG, AgNO3, activated charcoal on somatic embryo induction and its subsequent regeneration was investigated using varieties Dom siah and Nemat. Methods: 330 explant (Mature embryos) of each varieties were cultured, 33/plate (100 x 15 mm), on callus induction Murashige and Skoog (MS) medium (Murashige and Sk...

an important part of plant in vitro techniques is the sterilization of explants and the maintenance of aseptic conditions. ideally, sterilizing materials should be effective on a vast range of microorganisms at low density. nowadays, the use of compounds such as essential oils (eos) and nanoparticles is applicable in microbiology studies. the main objective of this experiment was to study the s...
