The effects of aloe vera (Aloe vera (L.) Burm. f.) gel treatment on the incidence of superficial scald in 'Starking' apples (Malus domestica Borkh. Var. Starking) during cold storage were studied. Apples were harvested at the pre-climacteric stage and treated with aloe vera gel. The treatment increased malondialdehyde content and membrane lipid damage. Furthermore, it inhibited the release of ethylene at the early stage but increased it in the later stage. The expression level of ACC synthase 1 (MdACS1) also increased, and the antioxidant capacity in apples, particularly, catalase, peroxidase, and superoxide dismutase activities, all decreased, while concomitantly, the content of α-farnesene and its oxidation product, conjugated triene increased, thereby aggravating superficial scald incidence during storage at low temperature.

Background And Objective: Asthma-COPD overlap (ACO) is characterized by patients exhibiting features of both asthma and COPD. Currently, there is no specific treatment for ACO. This study aimed to investigate the therapeutic potential of targeting CD131, a shared receptor subunit for IL-3, IL-5 and GM-CSF, in ACO development and in preventing acute viral exacerbations.

Malassezia furfur is the primary etiological agent of dandruff (Pityriasis capitis). Although herbal shampoos are preferred for their natural, mild ingredients over synthetic counterparts, they are often perceived as less effective in managing flaky scalp conditions or furfuration causing dandruff. The study compares the antifungal efficacy of herbal and synthetic shampoos against M.

Wounds are one of the most critical clinical issues in plastic surgery repair and restoration. Conventional wound dressing materials cannot absorb enough wound exudates and shield the site from microbial infection. Also, despite their healing prowess, bioactive molecules from medicinal plants are less bioavailable at the wound sites.
