Woody plants are important source of edible oil, and Camellia hainanica sinensis two new option. The physicochemical properties fatty acid composition were determined in both species. oil content C. was 37.60–41.60%, that 31.04–33.20%. There no significant differences saponification value, refractive index or relative density (P > 0.05). types acids the same species, but significantly different...

background and objectives: cardiospermum halicacabum l. is a climber plant of sapindaceae family with certain medicinal properties that have made it to be used traditionally in different systems of medicine such as ayurveda, homeopathy and unani medicine. literature survey has revealed the reports about some investigations but references were not available about the seeds of c. halicacabum; hen...

abstract large-scale mortality of in vitro raisedplantlets occurred during acclimatization, i.e. glasshouse hardening, and later at field transfer still has remained as a significant bottleneck in micropropagation. the usefulness potential of some arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (amf) to minimize mortality rate of three commercial grape rootstock genotypes during glasshouse acclimatization was stu...

Tobacco plants (Nicotiana tabacum L.) were grown on long or short photoperiods followed by 5 minutes of red or far red radiation each day. Plants that received 16-hour photoperiods had a significantly higher concentration of total alkaloids and total phenolics than those that received 8-hour photoperiods. Significantly higher total alkaloid content was found in plants that received red rather t...

Disposable sensors based on a pencil graphite electrode were described for detection of alkyl phenols. The performances of the disposable bare pencil graphite electrode (PGE) and PGE modified with carbon nanotubes, regarding the cyclic and differential pulse voltammetric determination of 4-nonylphenol, 4-octylphenol, and 4-tert-octylphenol, were compared. Some experimental variables of the elec...

A novel indirect electrochemical protocol for the electroanalytical detection of phenols is presented for the first time. This methodology is demonstrated with the indirect determination of the target analytes phenol, 2-chlorophenol, 4-chlorophenol and 2,4-dichlorophenol through an electrochemically adapted optical protocol. This electrochemical adaptation allows the determination of the above ...

The aim of this study was to determine total flavonoids and individually flavanone glycosides as well as antioxidant capacity in peel of Satsuma mandarin(Citrus unshiu) on different rootstocks.  On other hand, the purpose of this study was to identify the rootstock that could produce the highest amount of flavonoids.Total flavonoids content was measured using aluminum chloride colorimetric meth...

background & aim: fruits from the jujube plant (ziziphus jujuba) possess health-promoting effects and medicinal properties. jujube has a long history of usage as a remedy in iranian traditional medicine and is recommended for the treatment of some diseases. this study investigated the variations in antioxidant capacities (aox), total phenol (tph), total flavonoid (tf) and total anthocyanin ...

Objective: While substituted phenols have a variety of pharmacological activity, the mechanism underlying their anesthetic effects remains uncertain especially about the critical target. We characterized the lipid membrane-interacting properties of different phenols by comparing with general anesthetic propofol and local anesthetics. Based on the results, we also studied the pharmacological eff...
