Plant extracts are extensively researched as a source of green corrosion inhibitors. Herein, we report on a highly efficient and thermally stable corrosion inhibitor from the stem extract of high-altitude shrub Berberis aristata. The corrosion inhibition efficiency (IE) of the extract was tested in 1.0 M H2SO4 for the corrosion protection of mild steel (MS) by using gravimetric and electrochemi...

The hemolysate partially purified from human red cells was demonstrated to be capable of synthesizing fructose-2,6-bisphosphate (F-2,6-P2) from fructose-6-phosphate in the presence of adenosine triphosphate (ATP) indicating that human red cells contain fructose-6-phosphate,2-kinase. The effect of F-2,6-P2 on the rate-limiting enzymes of glycolysis, ie, hexokinase, phosphofructokinase (PFK), and...

22 z Prescriber July/August 2014 prescriber.co.uk The conjunctiva is a thin, transparent, continuous mucous membrane that covers the inside of the eyelids (palpebral conjunctiva) as well as the sclera (bulbar conjunctiva). Inflammation of this structure is known as conjunctivitis and is the most frequently diagnosed cause of the acute red eye. It is estimated that the acute red eye contributes ...

background and objective: high-level gentamicin resistance (hlgr: mic ≥ 500 µg/ml) in enterococci is mediated by aminoglycoside modifying enzymes which is mainly encoded by aac(6′)-ie-aph(2′′)-ia gene. the aim of this study was to evaluate the frequency of   aac(6′)-ie-aph(2′′)-ia gene in clinical isolates of enterococcus facium and enterococcus faecalis collected from hospitals in northwest of...
