Two spurge species, Euphorbia resinifera O. Berg and Euphorbia officinarum subsp. echinus (Hook.f. & Coss.) Vindt inhibit colon cancer.

Background: Colon cancer, a prominent contributor to global cancer-related deaths, prompts the need for innovative treatment strategies. Euphorbia resinifera O. Berg (E.

Small Dense LDL Level and LDL/HDL Distribution in Acute Coronary Syndrome Patients.

Unlabelled: This study aimed to determine the size and distribution of LDL and HDL particles in North African acute coronary syndrome (ACS) patients and to compare the level of small dense LDL (sdLDL) to other markers used in cardiovascular risk prediction.

Methods: A total of 205 ACS patients and 100 healthy control subjects were enrolled. LDL particle size and LDL and HDL subclass distributions were measured using Quantimetric Lipoprint linear polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis.

Eco-friendly degradation of reactive red 195, reactive blue 214, and reactive yellow 145 by Klebsiella pneumoniae MW815592 isolated from textile waste.

The water is used in many textile manufacturing steps beyond cleaning. The quantity and the significant chemical load of the effluents generated constitute the primary challenge of the textile industry. In order to discover new sustainable methods to overcome this problem, the aim of this research was to study the potential for degradation of Reactive Blue 214, Reactive Red 195, and Reactive Yellow 145 using a dye degrading bacterium.

species latex: A comprehensive review on phytochemistry and biological activities.

The genus includes about 2,000 species commonly widespread in both temperate and tropical zones that contain poisonous milky juice fluid or latex. Many species have been used in traditional and complementary medicine for the treatment of various health issues such as dropsy, paralysis, deafness, wounds, warts on the skin, and amaurosis. The medicinal applications of these species have been attributed to the presence of various compounds, and most studies on species have focused on their latex.

Genus Ziziphus: A comprehensive review on ethnopharmacological, phytochemical and pharmacological properties.

Ethnopharmacological Relevance: The genus Ziziphus (Rhamnaceae) contains 58 accepted species that are extensively used by local people and medicinal practitioners in arid and semi-arid regions for the treatment of diarrhoea, dysentery, cholera, diabetic, hypertension, inflammation, intestinal spasm, liver, malaria and other diseases. Aims of this review: This review article documents and critically assesses, for the first time; up to date categorized information about botanical traits, distribution, traditional uses, phytochemistry, pharmacological and toxicological effects of Ziziphus species.

Methods: Information was collected systematically from electronic scientific databases including Google Scholar, Science Direct, PubMed, Web of Science, ACS Publications, Elsevier, SciFinder, Wiley Online Library and CNKI, as well as other literature sources (e.

Improved Method for DNA Extraction and Purification from .

(protozoa) is intensely investigated as a model organism, offering numerous advantages in comprehensive and multidisciplinary studies using morphologic or molecular methods. Since DNA extraction is a vital step of any molecular experiment, here a new mixed surfactant (Sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS) 20%/Triton X-100) was adopted for effective DNA extraction from under an easy, fast protocol. The efficiency of this technique was then compared with three widely-used alternative techniques, namely the Chelex 100 matrix, Ammonium pyrrolidine dithiocarbamate (APD) complex and SDS-chloroform methods.

Purification and partial characterization of camel (Camelus Dromedarius) ceruloplasmin.

Adult and young camel ceruloplasmin (Cp) were isolated and purified using the single-step chromatography on amino ethyl-activated sepharose. There are no differences between the adult and the young camel protein. The molecular mass of the protein, as estimated by SDS-PAGE (denaturant conditions), was approximately 130000 Da.
