Three 3X3” plant pots labelled as A, B, and C were used during our experiment. Each pot contained standard soil media with basic nutrients, and 3 Arabidopsis seeds. All pots were watered with appropriate Hoagland’s Solution formulation three times per week over the next 4 weeks. Pot A (phosphate limitation group) was given a phosphate reduced Hoagland’s solution, whereas Pot B (nitrogen limitation group) was watered with nitrate reduced Hoagland’s solution. Pot C (control) is the control plant…
1.3.3 Lipid oxidation While not a direct outcome of proteinaceous compounds, aldehydes such as hexanal and (E)-2-nonenal have been attributed to the oxidation of lipid components present in the raw material (Aaslyng et al., 1998b). They are often present in much higher concentrations in enzyme hydrolysates and have been correlated to beany off-odours described in numerous literature. Solina et al. (2005) compared the volatile components of soy protein isolate (SPI) and acid-hydrolysed soy…
Perveen et al. 2011 Shahbaz et al., 2011, 2012; Adebooye et al., 2012; Perveen et al., 2012a). Photosynthesis is one of the most severely affected processes during salinity stress (Sudhir and Murthy, 2004), which is mediated by decreased chlorophyll pigment, damage the photosynthetic apparatus and decreases the activities of Calvin cycle enzymes (Monakhova and Chernyadev 2002), inhibition of rubisco and closure of stomata, thereby, decreasing the CO2 pressure (Bethkey and Drew, 1992). Under…
DG SANCO 2004). This report also stated that the “biological activity of nanoparticles – including potential adverse as well as beneficial effects - tends to increase as their size decreases”. Evidence for other particle types (e.g. “low toxicity dusts”) clearly shows that the toxicity of these materials…
Medicinal plant is an organism of the kingdom Plantae; now specifically, a living organism of the embryophyta (land plants) or of the chlorophyta (green algae), a eukaryote that includes double-membrane bounded chloroplasts in its cells containing chlorophyll a and b. Medicinal plants contain a large variety of chemical substances that possesses important therapeutic properties used in the treatment of many diseases. Increasingly industrialized societies are developing drugs and…
B) Blackthorn (Prunus spinosa) Active components of the plant are believed to be polyphenols, including flavonoids, A-type proanthocyanidins, anthocyanins, coumarins, and phenolic acids, forming unique and diversified profiles in particular organs, among which the flowers are the least (Owczarek et al., 2017). This work is the first comprehensive phytochemical and activity study of the flower extracts of P. spinosa. (Phenolic compounds of blackthorn (Prunus spinosa L.) and influence of in…
Energy Flow and Nutrient Cycling in the Epipelagic Zone of the Ocean Introduction: “Energy Flow’’ is an environmental process that describes the flow of energy through a food chain and attempts to ascertain the relative importance of various individual component species and feeding relationships within a particular ecosystem. “Energy” itself is defined as the ability to do work: All living plants and animals expend energy in their environment. All three laws of thermodynamics apply,…
Skin A third-degree skin burn extends through the entire epidermis, dermis and hypodermis, but leaves the underlying muscle and bone tissue in a functional state. Skin is made up of three layers: the epidermis, dermis and hypodermis. The epidermis is ectodermal in origin. It is relatively void of ECM except for the basal membrane and has a distinctive keratinized layer produced by keratinocytes. Other artifacts of the epidermis include melanocytes, hair follicles, sebaceous glands, and sweat…

production of bone marrow, can be found abundantly. Approximately 20 trillion can be found in the circulation fluid, blood, throughout the body. Inside the red blood cells there are red pigments called haemoglobin, an oxygen binding protein. Since red blood cell has no nucleus, all of the space is packed entirely with the pigment protein known as haemoglobin, each with approximately 270 millions molecules of haemoglobin, enzymes and chemicals that contribute in to deliver an efficient and a…
