This study aims to provide GC-FID and GC-MS analyses of the essential oil of dried aerial parts of Ecballium elaterium L. grown in Jordan and examining its cytotoxicity capacity. Methods: Essential oil was obtained by hydrodistillation using Clevenge
r apparatus. MTT assay method was used to investigate the plant's in vitro antiproliferative activity against MCF-7, Caco-2 and Panc-1 cancer cell lines in addition to normal fibroblast cells. Results: E. elaterium hydrodistilled oil yielded thirty one components, accounting for 76.3% of the total oil content. High contents of nonterpenoidal compounds, sesquiterpenes, and monoterpene characterized the volatile fractions with hinesol (17.2%), the principal compound, benzaldehyde (12.3%) and E-β-ionone (7.8%) as the major constituents. E. elaterium ethanolic extract showed good activity against MCF-7 and Caco-2 cells (IC50 values=29.67 μg/mL and 17.64 μg/mL, respectively). Moreover, all extracts were safe on normal human cells. In conclusion: Evaluation of E. elaterium volatile oil has been conducted for the first time in Jordan; also various extracts were tested for the first time against Panc-1 cells. Furthermore, based on the obtained results, ethanol extract of E. elaterium may be advocated as candidate for breast and colorectal cancers management.
Many T2D use CAO as a laxative. We did not find sufficient research to explain CAO's potential effect on the levels of HbA1c in T2D patients. This study will study this effect. Rats (n=80) were divided into eight groups (n=10). Five groups (n=50) wer
e injected with streptozotocin intravenously to induce T2D. One group was given CAO with empagliflozin, and the second was assigned CAO only daily. The third was assigned CAO every two days, with empagliflozin, which was given daily. A fourth was assigned CAO alone daily. Also, the fifth was given empagliflozin alone. In the healthy groups, one group was given CAO, and the other was given empagliflozin. Also, the last healthy group was not assigned any drug. CAO's result on HbA1c in healthy rats was noted to decrease when delivered alone for eight weeks. HbA1c of the diabetic groups showed no significant difference (P-value<0.05) when comparing the rats given CAO with empagliflozin, and the rats were given CAO only. There was also no noticeable effect among the groups of rats given CAO daily and every two days. This study explains that CAO does not lead to a significant difference in HbA1c levels in diabetic rats, even it did for healthy rats, and if given alone, CAO could affect HbA1c levels if given over a long period. Also, CAO has a noticeable impact on experimental rats that co-administered Empagliflozin on HbA1c levels, and that Empagliflozin effect is not significantly affected if taken with CAO.
Orange fruits contain many materials such as oils in seeds which
have biological and nutritional values, due to that, physical and
chemical properties of orange seed oil (OSO) have been
determined, which extracted from two samples collected from two
areas (Al-ssisanyah and Al-jma'ashyah) which are different in
environmental factors.
The research aims to identify incoming fatty acids in the composition of both the
Syrian domestic oil extracted from the seeds of Nigella sativa, fenugreek, borage and
Rocket , using gas chromatography GC, as the goal to identify some of the most i
mportant
physical properties ( density and refractive index ) and chemical ( Iodine number and
saponification number ) utmost to improve and develop the Syrian varieties of the studied
oils.
Search Results showed that borage oil contain the highest proportion of the Poly
unsaturated fatty acids ( 81.5% ) PUFA and the highest percentage of gamma -linolenic
acid ( 14.4% ) GLA, and it was for each of Nigella sativa oil and oil fenugreek close by
percent's of ( 60.89%-60.95% ) PUFA, and overall mono unsaturated fatty acids ( 33.89%-
28.19% ) MUFA and linoleic acid ( 60.71%-58.92% ) LA has the enjoyment of the highest
value oil ring of oleic fatty acid ( 26.72% ), while oil Rocket had the highest values ( 79%)
MUFA so different from the rest of the studied oils. The results of this research clearly
compatible with the results of global studies at the same oils.
The experiment was conducted on 24 brown laying hens at 30
weeks old and were randomly assigned to four groups, each
consisting of six laying hens and put in individual cages stacked in
accordance with the battery system in the unit of poultry fee
d at the
Faculty of Veterinary Medicine, University of Hama, in order to
study the effect of different types of oil and fat on performance,
apparent and true metabolizable energy, and apparent and true fats
digestibility.

In August 2015 the collected leaf of Arctostaphylos uva-ursi were
gathered. Then the volatile oil from fresh samples was extracted
with n-hexane and other samples with steam distillation.
The transesterification reactions of Cotton seed oil with Methanol using
potassium hydroxide as catalyst by Reactive Distillation column, were studied.
The ester preparation involved a transesterification reaction, followed by
purification.
The coconut oil was used as a substitute vegetable oil of milk fat in
manufacturing two mixtures of spreadable molten cheese by 8% of the
two sourses .
The chemical analyzes included the value of pH, acidity, protein, the
proportion of total dry
material, fat ratio and microbial tests,in addition
to the sensory evaluation tests of each of the flavor, texture, color and
appearance were conducted.
