Carbenoxolone (Biogastrone, Berk) has been shown to reduce the peptic activity and total acidity of gastric juice obtained from anaesthetized pylorus-ligated rats without affecting significantly the volume of gastric juice secreted or the K(+) concentration. Glycyrrhetinic acid was less potent in reducing peptic activity and caused no reduction in total acidity. Antipeptic activity of carbenoxo...

This study was undertaken to find out the effects of Calcium channel blocker Verapamil and Cimetidine on volume and acidity of Carbacol induced gastric section, free and total acidity of carbachol induced gastric secretion and their effects were also compared. METHODS Thirty rabbits of loc...

in order to maintain the quality and increase the shelf life of fruits, many studies have been carried out in terms of the packaging specially applications of the nano-composite packages in the packaging. because of the low storage ability of the plum fruit, in this study, the effects of the four nano-composite packages and common polyethylene (as a control) were analyzed on maintaining quality...

this study was carried out on 10 crossbred male sheep aged 1-1.5 year. an innervated crosskopf abomasal fundic pouch was made in each animal and effect o f starvation an d feeding on abomasal volume and composition were assesed . the results indicated that during starvation, volume of secretion , total acidity and k concentration decreased to a low level, while ph and na concentration reached h...

This study was conducted during 2008-2009 to investigate the influence of different organic nutrient combinations on yields and quality of strawberry cv. Kurdistan in Iran. The experiment comprised of five organic nutrient treatment combinations including the recommended dose of N, P and K through chemical fertilizer as control. Treatment N2 (manure+Azotobacter+ woodash+phosphorus solubilizing ...

Peptic ulcer is common in present days due to stress and anxiety. Peptic ulcer is thought to result from an imbalance between acid-pepsin secretion and mucosal defense factors. Though currently available drugs provide adequate relief from pain, promote healing, the problem of relapse has eluded success.
