Soil carbon storage under different types of arid land use in Algeria.

This study aims to assess the amount of organic carbon stored in soils, as it is an intention of knowing the sustainable soil management, by using two common methods for determining soil organic matter (SOM), namely oxidation with acidified wet dichromate (Walkley-Black method-WB) and loss on ignition (LOI). The study was carried with soil samples collected from a depth of 0 to 30 cm in the Saharan arid region of Ghardaïa (Algeria), with different land uses: agricultural, forest and pastoral. The results obtained from the LOI and WB methods were subjected to statistical analysis, and the relations between both methods were tested to investigate their relationship.

Antifungal effects of selected menthol and eugenol in vapors on green coffee beans during long-term storage.

Nowadays, coffee (Coffea Arabica L.) is among the most significant agricultural products of the world and drinking coffee has become one of the most popular habits in the world. The main contamination of stored coffee beans is related with the mycotoxin produced by the toxigenic fungi belonging the genus .

Phytochemicals, Antioxidant and Antimicrobial Potentials and LC-MS Analysis of Desf. Extracts.

(), belonging to the family Asteraceae, is an Algerian medicinal plant used in folk medicine to treat different diseases related to hyperglycemic and inflammatory disorders, as well as in food. The present study aimed to assess the total phenolic content, in vitro antioxidant and antimicrobial activity and phytochemical profile of the extracts of . The extraction of phenolic compounds from aerial parts was conducted using solvents of increasing polarity starting from methanol, resulting in crude extract (CE), to chloroform extract (CHE), ethyl acetate extract (EAE) and butanol extract (BUE).

Molecular Characterization of Clinical Carbapenem-Resistant Enterobacteriaceae Isolates from Sétif, Algeria.

This study aimed to determine the incidence and the molecular mechanisms of carbapenem-resistant Enterobacteriaceae in patients from the Sétif University Hospital, Algeria. Nonduplicate clinical bacterial isolates recovered from patients attending the University Hospital of Sétif were collected between April and October 2018. Species identification was performed by MALDI-TOF/MS (matrix-assisted laser desorption ionization-time of flight mass spectrometry) method.

Acute, sub-acute toxicity and antioxidant activities (in vitro and in vivo) of Reichardia picroide crude extract.

Ethnopharmacological Relevance: Reichardia picroide is a species mainly used for alimentary purposes, but it is traditionally known to be used as hypoglycemiant, diuretic, depurative, galactagogue and tonic.

Aim Of The Study: To date, there are no studies corroborating both its safety and antioxidant activities. The objective of the present study, thus, was to assess the safety profile of Reichardia picroide methanolic extract (RPE) and as well as on its antioxidant and antihemolytic activities.
