Iminodiacetic acid (IDA) is dicarboxylic acid amine, which may produce stronger interaction with polar or charged compounds than bidentate α,β-amino acid. In this article, a novel type of tridentate zwitterionic HILIC stationary phase was prepared by covalently bonding N-benzyl IDA on silica gel via copper(I) catalyzed Huisgen azide-alkyne 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition (CuAAC). The structure of thi...

Trigonella foenum-gracum L. (Fenugreek) (Leguminosae) is employed as an herbal medicine. Its seeds are known for their carminative, tonic and antidiabetic effects. In the present study, we investigated the hypoglycaemic activities of the hydroalcoholic, ethanolic and chloroformic extracts of the Trigonella foenum-gracum seeds in streptozotocin-diabetic rats using interperitoneall (i.p.) adminis...

This study was designed to examine the chemical composition and in-vitro antioxidant activity of the essential oil and methanolic extract of Teucrium orientale subsp. taylori. The GC and GC–MS analysis of the essential oil resulted in determination of 40 components representing 96.4% of the oil. The major constituents of the oil were linalool (28.6%), caryophyllene oxide (15.6%), 1,8-cineol (4....

Inclusion complexes of 2-[Arylidenamino]-1,3,4-thiadiazino[6,5b]indoles have been prepared with β-cyclodextrin so as to increase the solubility of these compounds in polar medium which may increase theirbioaccessibility. The formation of inclusion complexes is known from the study of changes in physical andspectral properties of the compounds. The stability of the inclusion complexes has been s...

The main purpose of this work was the preliminary qualitative study of organic compounds in wastewaters of swine slaughterhouses. The samples were collected in a local abattoir and submitted to Liquid-Liquid Extraction (LLE) and Solid-phase Extraction (SPE) with XAD-4 resin as stationary phase. The instrumental analysis was performed by Gas Chromatography with Mass Spectrometer Detector (GC/MSD...

Images obtained during MESSENGER's low-altitude campaign in the final year of the mission provide the highest-spatial-resolution views of Mercury's polar deposits. Images for distinct areas of permanent shadow within 35 north polar craters were successfully captured during the campaign. All of these regions of permanent shadow were found to have low-reflectance surfaces with well-defined bounda...

this study was conducted to evaluate the cytoprotection of various extracts and bioactive compounds found in pistacia vera againts cytotoxicity, ros formation, lipid peroxidation, protein carbonylation , mitochondrial and lysosomal membrane damages in cell toxicity models of diabetes related carbonyl (glyoxal) and oxidative stress (hydroperoxide). methanol, water and ethyl acetate were used to ...

Repeated use of cooking oil had been proven hazardous due to degradation process that contributes to the formation of polar compounds in the oil. Presently, the rate of cooking oil degradation is indicated by the percentages of its total polar compounds (TPC). In this study, impedance sensor probe was designed to assess the cooking oil degradation at several heating time intervals by measuring ...
