Head louse infestations (pediculosis) are prevalent worldwide. In developed countries, the infestation rate of 4- to 13-year-old children remains high despite preventive efforts. This is due to the existence of numerous ineffective pediculicides, the incorrect use of the effective agents,
Maize (Zea mays L.) is a multipurpose crop, which is immensely used worldwide for its nutritional as well as medicinal properties. This study evaluates the effect of varying concentrations of nitrogen (N) on accumulation of phenolic acids and antioxidant activity in different maize cultivars,
The aim of these studies was to assess the effect of chemical conservants (FA = formic acid, PA = propionic acid, FPA+i = formic acid, propionic acid and ammonium ions) on the cell counts of yeasts and mould fungi in silage. The silage was prepared from corn (Zea mays L), cultivar Buran FAO (240).
Male rats were administered one of three biodiesels - soy oil methyl ester (SoME-2), canola oil methyl ester (CaME-2), and methyl ester of animal frying oil (FrAME-1) at 5, 50 and 500 mg/kg, or ultra-low sulphur diesel (ULSD) at 500 mg/kg. Control was administered the vehicle (corn oil) only. After
A thin layer chromatographic cleanup development with benzene-hexane (3+1) effectively removed lipids and some contaminants from mixtures of mycotoxins in corn oil, olive oil, peanut oil, soybean oil, and seed extracts. A second development in the same direction as the first, using toluene-ethyl
In this work the development and in house validation of the HMF direct determination in corn and cane syrups by HPLC-UV was carried out for the first time. The separation was done with isocratic elution of a mobile phase comprising water (with 0.5% formic acid) and acetonitrile (90:10, v/v) on
We have previously shown that intact plants and cultured plant cells can metabolize and detoxify formaldehyde through the action of a glutathione-dependent formaldehyde dehydrogenase (FDH), followed by C-1 metabolism of the initial metabolite (formic acid). The cloning and heterologous expression of
Benzylselenocyanate (BSC), a novel organoselenium compound, has been found to inhibit azoxymethane (AOM)-induced colon carcinogenesis in rats during initiation. To investigate its mechanism of action, we examined the effects of BSC feeding on the following parameters: (a) metabolism of [14C]AOM to
A simple and rapid method for the simultaneous determination of 11 mycotoxins - aflatoxins B1, B2, G1 and G2; fumonisins B1, B2 and B3; ochratoxin A; zearalenone; deoxynivalenol; and T-2 toxin - in edible oils was established using liquid chromatography tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS). In this
A pot experiment was conducted to examine the effect of the arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) fungus, Glomus mosseae, on plant biomass and organic solute accumulation in maize leaves. Maize plants were grown in sand and soil mixture with three NaCl levels (0, 0.5, and 1.0 g kg(-1) dry substrate) for 55
Pentyl ether (PE) and two newly synthesized polyoxy ethers, 1,4-diethoxybutane (DEB) and 1,6-dimethoxyhexane (DMH), have been proposed as candidate diesel fuel additives. To characterize and compare their toxicity and to provide information for risk assessment, a 4-week oral study was conducted on
