Introduction: Regarding chronic nature of epilepsy and its side effects and to access the effective treatment procedures, herbal medicine has received remarkable interest. The aim of this study was to determine the anticonvulsant effects of hydro-alcoholic extract of Anethum graveolens seed on pentylenetetrazol (PTZ) -induced seizure in male mice. Methods: Fifty-six albino male mice were div...

We study a simple heteropolymer model containing sequence-independent local interactions on both square and triangular lattices. Sticking to a two-letter code, we investigate the model for varying strength κ of the local interactions; κ = 0 corresponds to the well-known HP model [K.F. Lau and K.A. Dill, Macromolecules 22, 3986 (1989)]. By exhaustive enumerations for short chains, we obtain all ...

Physiol. 37(2): 247-248. 1974.-Observations on hematocrit (Hct) and hemoglobin (Hb) were Inade in six men before and after running long enough to cause a 4y0 decrease in body weight. Subscripts B and A were used to denote before dehydration and after dehydration,...

introduction: dill (anethum graveolens), a herb from from umbelliferae, is used traditionally to treat convulsion and increasing milk production. its antimicrobial, antihyperlipidaemic, anti-hypercholesteroaemic effects and gastric acid secretion reducing effect have been reported. the spasmolytic effect of dill fruit on rat uterus has also been shown recently. the aim of present study was to i...

Field Marshal Sir John Dill held the most important military offices of the Second World War. In the supreme crisis of May 1940, as the evacuations from Dunkirk were about to get under way, he was made Chiefofthe Imperial General Staff(CIGS). In the critical instant ofDecember 1941, as the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor reverberated around the world, he was translated to the United States to b...

The aim of this study was to assess the antiglycation and antioxidant properties of aqueous extract of Anethum graveolens (dill). In the in vivo and in vitro experiments, antioxidant properties, blood glucose, and AGEs formation were determined. Dill extract was given orally to healthy and diabetic rats. Our results illustrated that different concentrations of dill extract (0.125, 0.25, 0.5, an...

We continue the study of nonlinear Maxwell equations for electromagnetism in the formalism of B. D. Coleman & E. H. Dill. We exploit here the assumption of Lorentz invariance, following I. Bia linicki-Barula. In particular, we show that nonlinearity forbids the convexity of the electromagnetic energy density. This justifies the study of rank-one convex and of polyconvex densities, begun in [8, ...
