this study aimed to investigate the effect of habitat kind on soil seed bank characteristics viz. density diversity, richness and similarity between seed bank and above ground vegetation. two different habitats (grassland and forest) were selected in vaz, mazandaran province. the grassland habitat located in the upper end of the forest habitat, adjacent to each other. then in each habitat, 7 tr...

Objectives: Cetuximab is an anticancerous drug which causes oral mucositis as a major side effect. Oral mucositis can be reduced by the effect of grape seed extract which modulates the inflammatory pathways. Our aim is to evaluate the effect of Grape seed extract and Cetuximab drug on mucositis and bacterial infection in tongue mucosa of experimental rats. Design: 24 rats were housed in the ani...

Seven treatments (activated charcoal, bentonite, PVPP, yeast cell walls, potassium caseinate, zeolite and grape seed oil) were evaluated for their efficacy in decreasing the concentration of geosmin, responsible for earthy off-flavour in wine. In the red wine the potassium caseinate and grape seed oil treatments decreased the concentration of geosmin by 14% and 83%, respectively, while in the w...
