In this study, curcumin loaded ovalbumin nanoparticles (CONPs) were fabricated at optimized processing conditions and compared with the neat ONPs. The particles characterized for molecular, thermal, antimicrobial, antioxidant properties. particle size values varied from 45.64 nm to 138.14 encapsulation efficiency of CONP was 24%. SEM images indicated that ONPs CONPs had spherical shapes diamete...

Objective(s): For determining the mechanism of anti-asthmatic effect of thymoquinone, this investigation evaluated the effect of thymoquinone in the presence of selective A2A and A2B adenosine receptor antagonists (ZM241385 and MRS1706, respectively). Materials and Methods: Seventy guinea pigs were randomly divided to 7 groups; control (C), sensitized with ovalbumin (S), sensitized groups pretr...

Ovalbumin, as the major component of egg-white, is a globular, biocompatible, nontoxic and biodegradable phosphoglyco protein. This protein with the molecular weight of 44.5 kDa, contains 385 residues of amino acids with isoelectric point (pI) of 4.5. Many purification procedures have been reported for egg-white proteins such as gel permeation and anion exchange chromatography. In this study, w...

The main function of the components respiratory tract is gas exchange while maintaining homeostasis in lung, given pathogenic and non-pathogenic elements environment contained inhaled air. Morphological changes part lung human animals adaptive nature under influence various factors on body today remain insufficiently studied. aim study was to investigate morphological guinea pigs dynamics exper...
