Isoprene (2-methyl-1,3-butadiene) was selected for toxicologic evaluations because of its structural similarity to 1,3-butadiene, a potent rodent carcinogen. Two-week inhalation toxicology studies of isoprene were conducted in F344 rats and B6C3F1 mice at exposure concentrations of 0, 438, 875, 1750, 3500, or 7000 ppm. For rats, there were no chemically related changes in survival, body weight ...

Intercropping is widespread in small-holder farming systems in tropical regions and is also practiced in the cultivation of indigenous vegetables, to alleviate the multiple burdens of malnutrition. Due to interspecific competition and/or complementation between intercrops, intercropping may lead to changes in plants accumulation of minerals and secondary metabolites and hence, alter nutritional...

To study the bioactive substances of H. scabrum, ethanolic and aqueous extracts leaves flowers were analyzed for their phytochemical contents antioxidant actings. The potiential was estimated using four methods, including DPPH radical, ABTS decolorization assay, reducing power total capacity. results exhibited that flower contain higher amounts flavonoids (4.675 mg. g-1) saponin (29.572 mg.g -1...

Breast and colorectal cancers rank high in Iran as causes of mortality. Most of the current treatments are expensive and non-specific.
