ribosomal proteins and @ H-labeled growing chains were mixed and dually counted after fractionation by different techniques. Ehrlich adenocarcinoma ascites cells were taken from mice (Swiss strain) inoculated 6 days earlier. The cells were separated from the ascitic plasma by centrifugation at 500 X g for S mm and washed once with 3 volumes of a medium containing NaC1 (0.12 M), KC1 (13 mM), MgS...

Abstract Background Rhodosporidium strain , a well-known oleaginous yeast, has been widely used as platform for lipid and carotenoid production. However, the production of squalene application in lipid-based biofuels is not reported this strain. Here, new sp. was isolated identified, its potential investigated under various cultivation conditions. Results In present study, DR37 from mangrove ec...

Callus was obtained from leaf explants of Cephaelis ipecacuanha on Murashige and Skoog (MS) basal medium supplemented with 0.5 mg/l Kin, 4.0 mg/l 2,4-D and 3% (w/v) sucrose [Murashige, T., Skoog, F., 1962. Plant Physiol. 15, 437±497]. Plantlet regeneration through somatic embryogenesis was achieved on MS medium containing 2.5 mg/l Kin, 1.0 mg/l 2,4-D and 3% (w/v) sucrose. Maturation and germina...

Abstract Abiotic stresses are the most major limitation to crop production, causing yield losses up 50%, and consider challenges for production of crops. Thus, an experiment was conducted determine how sugar beet would respond soil application K-humate rates foliar biostimulants under salt stress. Split-plot design in three replicates used both seasons, where fertigation (control, 12, 24 kg ha ...

Two trials were conducted to identify the optimal levels of essential oil active components (EOAC) and their combination with fumarate on in vitro rumen fermentation. In trial 1, eugenol, carvacrol, citral and cinnamaldehyde were mixed at ratios of 1:2:3:4, 2:1:4:3, 3:4:1:2, 4:3:2:1 and 1:1:1:1 to make up five combinations (EOAC1, EOAC2, EOAC3, EOAC4 and EOAC5 respectively). The mixtures were s...

INTRODUCTION To control the tissue browning phenomenon, callus growth, total phenolics and paclitaxel production, in the current investigation, we evaluated the effects of citric acid and ascorbic acid (as antioxidants) and glucose, fructose and sucrose in callus cultures of Taxus brevifolia. METHODS To obtain healthy callus/cell lines of Taxus brevifolia, the effects of two antioxidants asco...

Objective Compare high- vs. low-dose TPF neoadjuvant chemotherapy with chemoradiotherapy in Chinese patients with locoregionally advanced nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC). Materials and Methods Retrospective analysis of 210 stage III/IV NPC patients treated between April 1, 2012 and April 1, 2014; 138 received three cycles of high-dose TPF (H-TPF) every 3 weeks at Zhejiang Cancer Hospital and 7...

The effects of L-ascorbic acid and its stable analogue L-ascorbic acid 2-glucoside on the restoration of liver mass and recovery of liver function after 70% partial hepatectomy (PH), were compared with other natural vitamin C analogues in rats in vivo. L-Ascorbic acid (100 mg/kg/d, intraperitoneally (i.p.))- and L-ascorbic acid 2-glucoside (50 mg/kg/d, i.p.)-treated rats showed an approximately...

this study was carried out to investigate the interaction of simultaneous use of fluoxetine (flx), a selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor, and diclofenac (dcf), a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug, on food intake in goldfish, carassius auratus . treatments with different dosage of flx including control, 0, 1, and 10  µg/g body weight (bw) were injected in the fish with mean weight of 30.16 ±...
