Antibacterial Performance of Protonated Polyaniline-Integrated Polyester Fabrics by Aizamddin, Muhammad Faiz

“…Para-toluene sulfonic acid (pTSA) was used to protonate the PANI fabric and thus grant it antibacterial performance. The results of a 1,1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) scavenging assay showed high antioxidant activity of protonated PANI fabric at a scavenging efficiency of 84.83%. …”

Independent and combined effects of antioxidant supplementation and circuit resistance training on selected adipokines in postmenopausal women by Saeidi, Ayoub

“…These findings suggest that Zataria Multiflora supplementation by itself has little effect on measured adipokines; however, its combination with CRT produced noticeable effects on circulating levels of these adipokines, even more than CRT alone. Consequently, a combination of CRT and Zataria Multiflora supplementation may represent a potentially beneficial non-pharmacologic intervention on some selected adipokines in postmenopausal women.…”
