Abstract: In order to determine the best onion transplant age in Minab region of Hormozgan province, Iran, an experiment was performed as factorial arrangement in randomized complete block design with three replications in two successive years. For this purpose, the seeds of Primavera, Texas Early Grano, Early White and native landraces of Jirofti and Baluchi were sown in nursery at 16 and 27 September, 7 and 17 October and then the transplants were planted 40 to 70 days after sowing. Planting system was strip and was irrigated by tape tube. In the present study, planting 40 days transplants was very difficult in due to small size of these transplants and also its mortalities percent and its replanting necessity was very high. Generally, in the conditions of our study, 60 and 70 days transplants had suitable potential to produce bulb and they had no significant difference together. Therefore, regard to the 60 days transplants are planted to main field 10 days earlier than 70 days transplant and it establishes faster, it is recommended as superior transplant age for the all evaluated onion cultivars.

Abstract: Trypanosoma brucei brucei is a haemo-protozoan parasite transmitted by tsetse fly, which causes African animal trypanosomiasis (AAT), a parasitic disease that causes economic loss in cattle, sheep and goats. Existing drugs for the management of AAT have been reported to be expensive, toxic and rapidly becoming ineffective due to animals becoming resistant to the drugs. Hence the need for drugs of plant origin that are natural, easily accessible, and cheaper, with minimal side effects when compared to conventional anti-trypanocidal drugs. Terminalia macroptera (T. macroptera) is an ethnomedicinal plant used as antimicrobial and antimalarial therapies in some.......

Abstract: Efforts in seeking effective medicine for preventing hair loss and promoting hair growth are still continues worldwide. This study investigate effects of ethanolic plant extract of suruhan, Indonesian name for Peperomia pellucida (L.) Kunth., on rabbit hairs growth. Four healty, male rabbits, aged 4-5 months, weighing 1.5 kg – 2 kg were used for the study. Six areas (2 cm x 2 cm each) on the dorsal aspects of animals were shaved and marked C-, C+, S1, S2, S3 and S4. Area C- and C+ are the shaved skin treated consecutively with CMC gel without suruhan extract (as negative control) and 2% minoxidil (as positive control). Area S1, S2, S3 and S4 are the shaved skin treated with gel containing suruhan extracts of 25% (v/v), 50% (v/v), 75% (v/v) and 100% (v/v) respectively. All treatments were given twice daily..........

Abstract: The aim of the present study was to develop formulation of Furosemide to maintain constant therapeutic levels of the drug for over 12 hrs. Initially analytical method development was done for the drug molecule. Absorption maxima was determined based on that calibration curve was developed by using different concentrations. Then the formulation was developed by using different concentrations of polymers of various grades of HPMC and Guar gum. Gastroretentive floating beads of Furosemide were prepared with an aim to provide the drug for prolonged period of time in the stomach. All the formulations were passed various physicochemical evaluation parameters and they were found to be within limits Among all the formulations the formulations prepared by using Guar gum were...........

Abstract: The present study was designed to study the changes in metabolic hormones in congestive heart failure in Baghdad city. The target population of this study was 65 male individual from Teaching Baghdad Hospital and 25 healthy male as a control with age ranged between 27 – 73 years. The diagnosis was made by the consultant medical staff, which based on a history, symptoms, clinical examination and other investigation. The patients groups were divided according to their age into three groups (less than 40, 40-50 and more than 50 years). Blood samples were collected from each patient and control and used for analysis of renal function parameters, potassium, calcium, liver function as well as metabolic hormones: thyroid (T3 and T4), TSH, parathyroid and cortisol. These results demonstrate non..........

Abstract: Two mixtures (ethanol extract of taro plant leaves + roasted peanut, coriander oil, fresh coriander leaves, fresh zucchini fruit and cockroach faeces at ratio of 1:1:1:1:0.1, respectively, and ethanol extract of taro plant leaves + peppermint oil at ratio(1:1) were added to two commercial cockroach baits (SikoBiko and Ixon) and evaluated againstadults of theGerman cockroach, Blattellagermanica (L.)under laboratory conditions.The efficacy of the tested baits was conducted through two different bioassays, no-choice and choice assays. The choice assay considered the effect of alternative food (white bread) on efficacy of the baits. The bioassays also considered the effects of ageing the baits for seven days on their effectiveness. All the assays were conducted in special glass arenas (45 × 25 × 25 cm). Results..........

Abstract: The present study is focused to evaluate the feasibility of proniosomes for transdermal delivery of valsartan. Proniosomes were prepared by varying the molar ratios of sorbitan monopalmitate (span 40) and cholesterol and were characterized for morphology, size, entrapment efficiency and rheological behavior. The niosomes formed upon hydration of proniosomes were spherical and multilamellar. In-vitro release studies across cellophane membrane indicate that the drug release follows zero order kinetics by diffusion. Further ex-vivo permeation study carried out using rat skin reveal a significant improvement in the permeation kinetics of valsartan from proniosomes compared to control. Among the formulations tested, the formulations containing low amounts of cholesterol showed a two to three............
