crocus nudiflorus/dental caries

Loss of motor and sensory function as a result of neuronal cell death and axonal degeneration are the hallmarks of spinal cord injury. To overcome the hurdles and achieve improved functional recovery multiple aspects, it must be taken into account. Tissue engineering approaches by coalescing

Owing to the various beneficial properties of the popular spice saffron, the interaction of safranal, a secondary metabolite of the former, with hen egg white lysozyme was investigated. The formation of a complex was evidenced by UV-visible spectroscopy. Fluorescence quenching experiments were also

Crocin, a main constituent of Crocus sativus L (saffron), has been found to inhibit the growth of K-562 human chronic myelogenous leukemia (CML) cells expressing Bcr-Abl protein tyrosine kinase activity. The aim of our study is to investigate the ability of the bioactive saffron's constituents,

In the present study, the saffron anthocyanins were encapsulated in β-glucan and β-cyclodextrin by spray drying technique to achieve their stability under adverse gastro-environmental conditions. The microcapsules were subjected to simulated gastric conditions and release behavior of monomeric

A study was made of the mesophyll cell ultrastructure of early-spring ephemerals Scilla sibirica, Crocus vernus, Galanthus caucasicus, G. plicatus, Leucojum vernum, Muscari szovitsianum, Ornithogalum balansae of summer-vegetating. Scilla scilloides and of S. sibirica growing in greenhouse. The

Providing an acceptable quality of life for patients after reconstruction of mandibular segmental defects is challenging because the surgical techniques available have limitations. The authors evaluated two-stage mandibular reconstruction in rabbits and provide preliminary results in humans. 21
