While investigating the destruction of the cyanobacterial hepatotoxin microcystin-LR in the presence of phycocyanin pigment via semiconductor photocatalysis, it became apparent that the pigment was catalysing the toxin decomposition. The mechanism of this process in terms of phycocyanin acting as a
The effects of acute and subchronic administration of thymoquinone (TQ), the main constituent of the volatile oil of the black seeds Nigella sativa, with significant cytoprotective properties, were studied in male Swiss albino mice. After acute oral administration, the LD 50 value (95% CL) was 2.4
