Preparations derived from plants were the original therapeutic interventions used by man to control diseases (including parasites), both within humans and livestock. Development of herbal products depended upon local botanical flora with the result that different remedies tended to develop in different parts of the world. Nevertheless, in some instances, the same or related plants were used over wide geographic regions, which also was the result of communication and/or the importation of plant material of high repute. Thus, the Nordic countries have an ancient, rich and diverse history of plant derived anthelmintic medications for human and animal use. Although some of the more commonly used herbal de-wormers were derived from imported plants, or their products, many are from endemic plants or those that thrive in the Scandinavian environment. With the advent of the modern chemotherapeutic era, and the discovery, development and marketing of a seemingly unlimited variety of highly efficacious, safe synthetic chemicals with very wide spectra of activities, herbal remedies virtually disappeared from the consciousness--at least in the Western world. This attitude is now rapidly changing. There is a widespread resurgence in natural product medication, driven by major threats posed by multi-resistant pest, or disease, organisms and the diminishing public perceptions that synthetic chemicals are the panacea to health and disease control. This review attempts to provide a comprehensive account of the depth of historical Nordic information available on herbal de-wormers, with emphasis on livestock and to provide some insights on potentially rewarding areas of "re-discovery" and scientific evaluation in this field.  相似文献   

Anticariogenic activity of some tropical medicinal plants against Streptococcus mutans     

Hwang JK  Shim JS  Chung JY 《Fitoterapia》2004,75(6):596-598

The methanol extracts of five tropical plants, Baeckea frutescens, Glycyrrhiza glabra, Kaempferia pandurata, Physalis angulata and Quercus infectoria, exhibited potent antibacterial activity against the cariogenic bacterium Streptococcus mutans. In particular, G. glabra, K. pandurata and P. angulata conferred fast killing bactericidal effect against S. mutans in 2 min at 50 microg/ml of extract concentration.  相似文献

Functional characteristics of porcine peripheral T cells stimulated with IL-2 or IL-2 and PMA     

In Su Cheon  Sung-Moo Park  Hye Jin Lee  Ji Eun Hong  Sang Yun Ji  Byoung-Shik Shim  Kwang Ho Kim  Pil Seung Heo  Yoo Yong Kim  Hyun Jung Jung  Hakhyun Ka  Seung Hyun Han  Manki Song  Cheol-Heui Yun 《Research in veterinary science》2014

In human or mouse, mature T cells express either CD4 or CD8, resulting in different functions in the periphery. Interestingly, porcine CD4 and CD8 double positive (DP) T cells are present in the blood, and their proportions change from youth to adulthood. However, the features of these cells in swine are poorly understood. We investigated the fate of porcine peripheral T cells based on their functional characteristics, including proliferation and the expression of CD4 and CD8 co-receptors. The results showed that all the populations changed their CD8 expression in a time-dependent manner and porcine T cells had different proliferative pattern from human T cells. The results further revealed that Th2 cytokines were increased later in porcine T cells compared to human T cells upon stimulation with IL-2 + PMA. Collectively, we found that the fate of porcine peripheral T cells is different from that of human T cells, and the changes occur in a time- and stimulation-dependent manner.  相似文献

Colorimetric determination of arprinocid in feed.     

D W Fink  R P Martin  J V Pivnichny  J S Shim 《Journal of the Association of Official Analytical Chemists》1978,61(5):1078-1082

An analytical method has been developed for the determination of arprinocid (9-(2-chloro-6-fluorophenylmethyl)-9H-purin-6-amine) in feed, based upon measurement of the absorbance of the diazo chromophore formed from a product of zinc reduction of the drug in acidic solution. The analyte is extracted from the feed into chloroform in the presence of a pH 7 phosphate buffer and isolated by adsorption chromatography on alumina, followed by partitioning between hexane and 0.15M HCl. The reduction product in the aqueous phase is then treated for colorimetric measurement. This procedure has been applied to determining 0.0010--0.0080% arprinocid in feed with a precision of less than 5% relative standard deviation near the middle of this concentration range. Of 32 feed additives examined, only zoalene and sulfamethazine were serious interferences. A study and discussion of several factors, e.g., reaction time, pH, and amount of zinc metal, that affect the analytical reactions are also included.  相似文献

担子菌中牛磺酸的检测   总被引：2，自引：0，他引：2  

Shim.M.J Park.T 《安徽农业大学学报》1999,26(3):302-305

利用基于离子交换色谱原理氨基酸自动分析仪检测了一些常见食用菌中牛磺酸的含量。牛磺酸在磷酸丝氨酸及磷酸乙醇胺洗脱液中经色谱分析可得到清晰的对称峰。灵芝的牛磺酸含量为每100g干重含3.7～83umol。火菇在所检蘑菇中牛磺酸含量高,每100g湿重含（83.2±6.6)umol,与陆生植物相近。双孢蘑菇与香菇的牛磺酸含量相对较高,每100g湿重含量约49～55umol,牡蛎蘑菇及糙皮侧耳的鲜重含量分别为（8.9±0.712)umol、（3.7±0.3)umol,木耳及甘露地衣的干重含量分别为（19.5±2.1)umol、（9.3±1.5)umol。高牛磺酸、无胆固醇的蘑菇有望作为低胆甾醇类食物的替代品。  相似文献   

Synchronized oscillation in coupled nanomechanical oscillators     

Shim SB  Imboden M  Mohanty P 《Science (New York, N.Y.)》2007,316(5821):95-99

We report measurements of synchronization in two nanomechanical beam oscillators coupled by a mechanical element. We charted multiple regions of frequency entrainment or synchronization by their corresponding Arnold's tongue diagrams as the oscillator was driven at subharmonic and rational commensurate frequencies. Demonstration of multiple synchronized regions could be fundamentally important to neurocomputing with mechanical oscillator networks and nanomechanical signal processing for microwave communication.  相似文献
