Thyme belongs to herbal plants, the yield and quality of which depend on biological factors, agrotechnical procedures and the way of processing and storage. Basic factor differentiating the biological value of plants is fertilization, including manure, as well as plant growth and development, which is significantly influenced by the pH of the substrate, in which the plants are grown. The aim of the...
A field experiments were conducted during the two summer seasons of 2015 and 2016 in saline soil (ECe = 9.0 dSm⁻¹), at Fayoum province, Egypt to study the effect of ascorbic (AsA), as foliar application alone or combined with cyanobacteria (CB) on growth, yield, its components and nutritional status of sunflower plants variety Sakha 54. Treatments comprised 2 ascorbic acid (AsA) levels with or without...
The benefits of regular exercise on brain health are undeniable. Long-term exercise increases the production of reactive oxygen species in brain. Therefore, athletes often consume antioxidant supplements to remedy exercise-related damage and fatigue during exercise. The aim of this study is to evaluate the role of ascorbic acid in the effects of different intensities of swimming exercise on the brain...
Transplantation of mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) has emerged as a promising strategy for the treatment of myriad human disorders, including several neurological diseases. Superparamagnetic iron oxide nanoparticles (SPION) and fluorine nanoemulsion (19F) are characterized by low toxicity and good sensitivity, and, as such, are among the most frequently used cell-labeling agents. However, to date, their...
Carrots cultivated in Poland are either sold as fresh vegetables or preserved. The quality of processed products does not depend only on the properly implemented technological process, but, also on the biological value of the initial raw material. The objective of the research study was to determine the impact of foliar fertilization of plants with a 3 % solution of magnesium amounting to: 0, 45,...
Background. Researchers suspect that the accepted adequate ascorbic acid plasma concentration is not being met even after dietary intake of the recommended amount of vitamin C. Current dietary intake recommendation in Poland is 60 mg per day for women and 75 mg per day for man (EAR), while in Western Europe and North America is higher and amounts to 75-90 mg per day. Objective. The paper aimed at...
The aim of the presented study was to evaluate the reductive activity of antioxidants in the presence of carbon manufactured by Radio Frequency Plasma Activated Chemical Vapor Deposition method (RF PACVD). 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) method was employed to estimate antioxidants reductive potential. Based on the experimental results, the antioxidant activity of carbon colloid was not confirmed...
