Antioxidant phytochemicals play a key role in oxidative stress control and in the prevention of related disorders, such as premature aging, degenerative diseases, diabetes, and cancer. The aim of this study was to investigate the potential antioxidant activity and the phytochemical profile of Senecio clivicolus Wedd., a perennial shrub, belonging to the Asteraceae family. Despite the wide ...... hiện toàn bộ
A Photocatalytic Rotating Disc Reactor with TiO2 Nanowire Arrays Deposited for Industrial Wastewater TreatmentSpringer Science and Business Media LLC - Tập 22 Số 2 - Trang 337
Fang Li, Wai Szeto, Haibao Huang, Jiantao Li, Dennis Y.C. Leung
A photocatalytic rotating disc reactor (PRD-reactor) with TiO2 nanowire arrays deposited on a thin Ti plate is fabricated and tested for industrial wastewater treatment. Results indicate that the PRD-reactor shows excellent decolorization capability when tested with methyl orange (>97.5%). Advanced oxidation processes (AOP), including photocatalytic oxidation and photolytic reaction, oc...... hiện toàn bộ
Purification of Ustiloxins A and B from Rice False Smut Balls by Macroporous ResinsSpringer Science and Business Media LLC - Tập 18 Số 7 - Trang 8181-8199

Ustiloxins are cyclopeptide mycotoxins produced by Villosiclava virens, the pathogenic fungus of rice false smut disease. Both resins SP207 and SP700 were screened to show the best adsorption and desorption properties for ustiloxins A and B among 20 commercial macroporous resins. Dynamic adsorption and desorption tests were carried out to optimize the process parameters. The optimal condit...... hiện toàn bộ

Ischemic cerebrovascular disease is one of the most common causes of death in the World. Exogenous activin A (ActA) protects neurons against toxicity and plays a central role in regulating the brain’s response to injury. In the present study, we investigated the mechanisms involved in the neuroprotective effects of ActA in a model of hypoxic-ischemic brain disease. We found that ActA could...... hiện toàn bộ
5-HT1A Serotonergic, α-Adrenergic and Opioidergic Receptors Mediate the Analgesic Efficacy of Vortioxetine in MiceSpringer Science and Business Media LLC - Tập 26 Số 11 - Trang 3242
Nazlı Turan, Ümmühan Kandemir, Ümide Demir Özkay, Özgür Devrim Can
Vortioxetine is a multimodal antidepressant drug that affects several brain neurochemicals and has the potential to induce various pharmacological effects on the central nervous system. Therefore, we investigated the centrally mediated analgesic efficacy of this drug and the mechanisms underlying this effect. Analgesic activity of vortioxetine (5, 10 and 20 mg/kg, p.o.) was examined by tai...... hiện toàn bộ
Pancreatic Lipase Inhibition by C-Glycosidic Flavones Isolated from Eremochloa ophiuroidesSpringer Science and Business Media LLC - Tập 15 Số 11 - Trang 8251-8259
