(Cy-AgNPs) were examined using a transmission electron microscope, FT-IR spectroscopy, UV-visible spectroscopy. Additionally, Vicia faba...

Toxin-contaminated foods and beverages are a major source of illness, may cause death, have significant negative economic impact worldwide. Aflatoxin B1 (AFB1) is potent toxin that induce cancer after chronic low-level exposure. This study developed quantitative recombinant AflR gene antiserum ELISA technique for aflatoxin detection in contaminated food products. residuals from 36 samples were analyzed with HPLC VICAM. DNA was extracted aflatoxin-contaminated the amplified using PCR. PCR...

Presently, the bioprocessing of agricultural residues to various bioactive compounds is great concern, with potential be used as plant growth promoters and a reductive diseases. Lycopersiconesculentum, one most consumed crops in human diet, attacked by Fusarium wilt disease, so main aim biocontrol pathogen. Several fungal species were isolated from decayed maize stover (MS). Trichodermaasperellum was chosen based on its organic acid productivity molecularly identified (GenBank accession...

Commiphora gileadensis L. is a medicinal plant, known as balsam, with pharmaceutical potential for its phytochemical activities and chemical constituents. Genetic diversity genetic tool used in plant evolution conservation. Three accessions from C. were collected three localities Saudi Arabia (Jeddah, Jizan Riyadh). characterization was carried out using physio-biochemical parameters, molecular markers (inter-simple sequence repeat (ISSR) start codon targeted (SCoT)), DNA barcoding (18 S...

Materials with multifunctional surface, such as UV shielding, self-cleaning or antimicrobial properties have been highly desirable.
