Analysis of polyphenols, phytosterols, and bitter principles in Teucrium L. species
Tập 7 - Trang 542-550 - 2012
Total polyphenols, tannins, β-sitosterol, and bitterness values were determined in native and cultivated populations of Teucrium L. species from Croatia (T. arduini L., T. botrys L., T. chamaedrys L., T. flavum L., T. montanum L., T. polium L., and T. scordium L. subsp. scordioides Schreb.). Teucrium species have long been present in folk medicine for diverse medicinal uses, but little is known ab......
Increased antidepressant-like effect of desipramine combined with central stimulants (caffeine and amphetamine) in mice
Tập 7 - Trang 391-396 - 2012
Desipramine is a widely used antidepressive agent that inhibits the reuptake of noradrenaline and serotonin, and central stimulants such as caffeine and amphetamine help to release noradrenaline and serotonin. This work aimed to evaluate whether the combination of these agents could produce a stronger antidepressant-like effect than either of the drugs alone. To this end, male mice were treated wi......
Micropropagation of Vitis vinifera L. cv. ‘Malagouzia’ and ‘Xinomavro’
Tập 5 - Trang 839-852 - 2010
The effects of six basal media on in vitro shoot proliferation of the greek grapevines Vitis vinifera L. cv. ‘Malagouzia’ and ‘Xinomavro’ were investigated. Galzy and Zlenco proved to be the most effective for ‘Malagouzia’ and ‘Xinomavro’, respectively. If only BA was present in the medium, shoot development was poor and the plantlets were chlorotic. When the medium was supplemented with BA and NA......
Anatomical adaptations of Astragalus gombiformis Pomel. under drought stress
Tập 9 - Trang 1215-1225 - 2014
The present study was designed to study the effect of drought on root, stem and leaf anatomy of Astragalus gombiformis Pomel. Several root, stem and leaf anatomical parameters (cross section diameter, cortex, root cortical cells, pith, leaf lamina and mesophyll thickness) were reduced under moderate to severe water deficit (20–30 days of withheld irrigation). The stele/cross section root ratio inc......
Autumn-winter diet overlap of fallow, red, and roe deer in forest ecosystems, Southern Poland
- 2012
The wild population of fallow deer in Central Europe has grown considerably over the last decade. However, information on feeding habits of this alien species in relation to the indigenous red deer or roe deer, in areas of their co-occurrence, is scarce. A prevailing view maintains that their food-niches are distinct, although direct comparative studies have not been carried out. Therefore, the ai......
Biological evaluation of 10-(diphenylmethylene)- 4-azatricyclo[5.2.1.02,6]dec-8-ene-3,5-dione derivatives
Tập 4 - Trang 362-368 - 2009
Antibacterial and antifungal activity of 10-(diphenylmethylene)-4-azatricyclo[5.2.1.02,6]dec-8-ene-3,5-dione derivatives were examined by the disc-diffusion method (growth inhibition zone diameter in agar medium). The MIC’s for the most active agents were determined. Title compounds were also evaluated in vitro against representatives of different virus classes. Most of the tested compounds exhibi......
Genetic structure of the Anthyllis vulneraria L. s. l. species complex in Estonia based on AFLPs
Tập 3 - Trang 442-450 - 2008
Anthyllis vulneraria L. (Fabaceae) s. lato includes many cryptic taxa, ranging from 25 to 60 subspecies according to different authors. The delimitation of intraspecific taxa of A. vulneraria s. lato has always been complicated and inconsistent. Different data sets (multivariate analyses of morphological variation, allozymes, chloroplast SSRs and ITS) have not resolved the......
Population genetics of the hazel hen Bonasa bonasia in Poland assessed with non-invasive samples
Tập 7 - Trang 759-775 - 2012
Despite a severe decrease in the number of hazel hens during the 20th century, nowadays this grouse species is rather common in the forests of Northeastern and Southern Poland. We used mitochondrial control region and microsatellite markers to examine the genetic variability of Polish populations of hazel hens. We used non-invasively collected faeces to estimate genetic variability within populati......
Distinctive attributes for predicted secondary structures at terminal sequences of non-classically secreted proteins from proteobacteria
Tập 3 - Trang 320-326 - 2008
C- and N-terminal sequences (64 amino acid residues each) of 89 non-classically secreted type I, type III and type IV proteins (Swiss-Prot/TrEMBL) from proteobacteria were transformed into predicted secondary structures. Multivariate analysis of variance (MANOVA) confirmed the significance of location (C- or N-termini) and secretion type as essential factors in respect of quantitative representati......
Total phenolic content and antioxidant activity of plants used in traditional Romanian herbal medicine
Tập 6 - Trang 388-396 - 2011
A number of herbal plants from Romania widely used as natural food additives or for health promotion in traditional medicine were investigated for their antioxidant activity. Methanol extracts were obtained from plants belonging to the Lamiaceae family (lavender Lavandula angustifolia L.; lemon balm Melissa officinalis; sage Salvia officinalis; oregano Origanum vulgare L.; rosemary Rosmarinus offi......
