Purely cotton fabric lacks different functional and physical properties than cotton-flax blends fabric. The experimental part of the present study is to investigate the influence of flax fibres content in cotton-flax blended yarn quality. Five ring yarn samples of the same count, 16/1Ne but from different blend ratios (100C, 80C:20F, 70C:30F, 45C:55F, and 100F) were produced from the same spinning preparatory conditions. The primary outcome was measured by analyzing test results obtained from different testing instruments (Uster Evenness tester, Mesdan Tensile Tester, and Instron Lea strength tester). The secondary outcome was measured by statistical analysis. Evenness properties were better for 80:20 blends in CVm% (17.13), IPI (1346), and H (6.89). 100% cotton yarn possessed the richest evenness quality CVm% (13.23), IPI (168.4), and H (7.97) in contrast to the poorest result of 100% flax yarn. On the other hand, the highest strength (CSP 4631, RKM 30.22) and the lowest elongation, 2.29%, were both achieved for 100% flax yarn. Evenness properties and elongation deteriorated with the gradual increase in flax content. In terms of strength, tenacity and CSP both decreased with an increase in flax content, but 100% flax yarn exhibited the highest performance.

Salinity is one of the abiotic stress factors that affect plant physiology and cause various plant disorders. Thiourea, which consists of amino, thiol, and imino groups, is an antioxidant and growth regulator. The objective was to determine the antioxidant role of thiourea (0, 3, 6 mM) in attenuating the effects of salinity (0 mM, 50 mM, 100 mM NaCl) on growth, yield, and some biochemical compositions of flax ( L.

Flaxseed linusorb (FL) has gradually garnered widespread attention in recent years because of its intriguing bioactivities like anti-inflammation, antimelanogenesis, and even anticancer effects. Based on its proven anti-inflammatory activity and mechanism, it is supposed that FL may also exhibit an effect in treating and preventing rheumatoid arthritis (RA). Collagen-induced arthritis (CIA) rat models were established to investigate the potential therapeutic effect of FL, which were intervened with FL via gavage (50 and 100 mg/kg B.

Article Synopsis
- Flaxseeds were treated with steaming, roasting, and microwave methods to assess their effects on oil bodies and cyanide content.
- All heat treatments significantly reduced toxic cyanide levels, with variations in yield rates, nutritional composition, and sensory characteristics.
- Microwave treatment at 560 W for under 3 minutes proved to be the most effective, yielding oil bodies with better quality, such as higher polyunsaturated fatty acids and lower lipid oxidation.

In this study, Nile tilapia were fed a blend of oilseed meals (BOM) that includes cottonseed meal (CSM), linseed meal (LSM), sesame meal (SSM), and sunflower meal (SFM) at a ratio of 1 CSM: 1 LSM: 1 SSM: 1 SFM. Six diets were formulated where the first diet included FM and SBM as protein sources and considered the positive control diet (FM). Another five FM-free diets were formulated, where SBM was substituted with BOM and included at 0, 100, 200, 300, and 400 g/kg diet.
