"Natural" polyreactive antibodies, which bind in a nonspecific manner to a range of biological molecules both of self- and nonself- origin, are normal constituents of serum and are a significant part of the immune repertoire in many species, including humans. Autoantibodies to sTNF-R (the 55-kDa

Xiebai is an edible Chinese herb with various health and therapeutic benefits. To evaluate its nutritional and health values, the free amino acids and derivatives of its two botanical origins (i.e., Allium chinense G. Don and Allium macrostemon Bunge) were isolated using a solvent extraction method

The proteinaceous content of garlic (Allium sativum) was characterised according to its amino acid composition by using a gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS) analytical procedure. The procedure was tested on fresh and aged garlic samples as well as on reference gilding specimens prepared

This study investigated the characteristics of γ-glutamyltranspeptidases (GGTs) isolated from dormant garlic (Allium sativum L.) and onion (Allium cepa L. var. agrogatum Don) bulbs. GGTs were isolated using (NH ₄)₂ SO ₄ precipitation and

Procedures were developed for disinfestation of non-dormant basal plate tissue excised from field grown basal plate tissue of diploid Allium fistulosum × A. cepa F1 hybrid onions. Contamination levels varied with the season and vegetative development of plant material. Callus initiated from basal

The amino acid sequence of leek cytochrome c was determined with 0.4mumol of protein. The sequence was deduced solely from a chymotryptic digest. The cytochrome was homologous with other plant cytochromes c of mitochondrial origin. Leek cytochrome c has an N-acetylated ;tail' as compared with

Soil flooding is a seasonal factor that negatively affects plant performance and crop yields. In order to investigate the effects of spermidine (Spd) and spermine (Spm) on the waterlogging stress, it was checked that the content of relative water content (RWC), proline, chlorophyll and

The current study was emphasized to assess the effect of malathion on root system (cell division and kinetics of the root elongation) and stress related parameters in Allium cepa L. The roots were exposed to different concentrations (0.05, 0.13, 0.26, 0.39 and 0.52 g/L) of malathion for different
