We studied he effect of ischemia and reperfusion on the total antioxidant capacity (TAC) of blood plasma during cardiopulmonary bypass surgery employing the modified St. Thomas Hospital cardioplegic solution. TAC was determined using the FRAP method. TAC decreased during surgery, but no further decrease in TAC was observed during reperfusion, indicating that it is a relatively stable parameter of the antioxidative barrier of the body.

Nutritional status being the first line of defense for host plants, determines their susceptibility or resistance against invading pathogens. In recent years, the applications of plant nutrient related products have been documented as one of the best performers and considered as alternatives or/and supplements in plant disease management compared to traditional chemicals. However, knowledge about application of plant nutrient related products for the management of destructive fungal pathogen Fusarium oxysporum f.
