Jonathan S. Perry, The Roman collegia. The Modern Evolution of an Ancient Concept

L’auteur commence astucieusement par un exercice très bien mené d’interprétations de l’épitaphe de L. Arrius Secundus mort à Catane, à 17 ans, auquel ses compagnons marmorii rendent hommage – CIL X 7039 : D(is) M(anibus) s(acrum). / L(ucius) Arrius / Secundus / vix(it) an(nis) XVII, marmorari convive fecer(unt). Les scénarios qu’il échafaude ne sont pas simple virtuosité, mais une démonstration éclatante du poids des connaissances personnelles et des idées contemporaines dans la compréhension..

John Davies, John Wilkes éd., Epigraphy and the historical sciences

Ce volume rassemble la plupart des conférences plénières données lors du 13e congrès international d’épigraphie grecque et latine (ciegl) qui s’est tenu à Oxford en septembre 2007. Il avait été demandé aux auteurs de mettre en évidence les apports de l’épigraphie à l’écriture de l’histoire, ce qui fait apparaître combien, à l’inverse, pour exploiter les inscriptions, c’est-à-dire pour en tirer les informations, les insérer dans un contexte et apprécier leurs apports, il est nécessaire de maît..

Chemoprevention Activity of Temu Mangga Extracts

The chemoprevention activity of temu mangga extracts was investigated by determination of antioxidant activity with a peroxidation number method and gluthatione-S-transferase (GST) activity in Chang medium culture and cell lysate (total GST activity). The results indicated that ethanol extract has a strong antioxidant activity. It is caused by the phenolic group in the ethanol extract. Treatment Chang cell culture with 7th and 4th ethanol fractions increased the GST activity when compared to the control. The total GST activity (cytosolic and microsomal) increased when Chang cell culture was treated with H2O2/Fe+2. The decrease of the total GST activity was observed when 7th and 4th ethanol fractions were supplemented with H2O2/Fe+2 compared to the cell culture receiving H2O2/Fe+2 only

Lipid oxidation and antimicrobial activity of cooked beef patties as influenced by leaf extracts of “Cemba” (Albizia lebbeckoides [DC.] Benth)

Cemba (Albizia lebbeckoides [DC.] Benth.) leaf extract (CLE) was evaluated for some physical properties, antioxidant and antimicrobial activities incorporated into beef patties during cold storage. Four Formulation employed were control, butylated hydroxytoluene (BHT) 0.01, CLE 0.5, and CLE 1% (w/w). The variables measured were proximate composition, cooking parameters, pH, aw, WHC, color, total phenolic content, antioxidant capacity, DPPH scavenging activity, TBARS value, and microbial total. The data were analyzed using ANOVA one factor for proximate and cooking parameters, and ANOVA with factorial 4x5 for pH, aw, WHC, color, total phenolic content, antioxidant capacity, DPPH scavenging activity, TBARS value, and microbial total and continued with Tukey test. The results of the study showed that the addition of the CLE did not affect the proximate composition and cooking parameters of the patties. The cooked beef patties with 1% CLE showed significantly lower (P<0.05) for TBARS value, pH, bacterial total (mesophilic and psychrophilic) compared to 0.5% CLE and controls. The total phenolic content, antioxidant capacity, scavenging activity of CLE 1 % were significantly higher (P<0.05) than 0.5% CLE and controls during the cold storage period (0, 7, 14, 21, and 28 days). Addition of both 0.5 and 1% CLE in cooked beef patty reduced bacteria total. The addition of 1% CLE had equivalent to BHT 0.01% effect in retarding lipid oxidation. In conclusion, the CLE 1% was effective to retard lipid oxidation and inhibit bacteria growth of cooked beef patties

Quelques réflexions sur l’analyse historiographique et épistémologique du dagr

Par compétence, par intérêt et parce que cette approche est assez fertile, à mon avis, pour justifier un programme, je me borne ici à quelques réflexions sur l’analyse historiographique et épistémologique du dagr en lui-même. Il ne s’agit pas de confronter le Dictionnaire à la science actuelle – ce qui a été l’objet de la seconde partie de la journée d’étude erasme et constitue le second volet de cette publication –, mais d’en chercher la logique interne, de repérer les éventuels infléchissem..

PF-18 Photomicrograph of Nanogel Andrographolide-Beta Cyclodextrine Inclusion Complex As Anti-Burns

Inclusion complex is a complex formed between drug molecules which act as guest or located inside the cavity of host molecule. Host molecules are commonly originated from the derivative group of cyclodextrin. Among cyclodextrin groups, beta cyclodextrin (BCD) is mostly used in formula development and drug delivery system [1].Andrographolide (AG) is a pure isolate chemically syntesized from sambiloto herbs (Andrographis paniculata Nees), in the form of needle cystal-like which is colorless and extremely bitter. AG has variety of medical properties, particularly as anti-inflamation to treat skin burns [2]. However AG has poor solubility in water. This will result in low abillity to solute, penetrate membrane, and distribute the drug when applied transdermally in burn skin. In burn skin, there is tendency to skin damage, especially in stratum corneum which acts as semipermeable barrier. The ability of drugs that applied transdermally tends to be high.Formation of inclusion complex using AG and BCD to increase the ability of AG in penetrating membrane should be done. Transmission Electron Microscope (TEM) is a fast technique to confirm the formation of drug or inclusion complex by  comparing the shape and particle size [3]. Study on percutaneous penetration of AG-BCD inclusion complex is produced through solvent evaporation method at mole ration 1:2 in viscolam gel preparation

Une bibliothèque et une famille : le fonds Poinssot à la bibliothèque Gernet-Glotz

Pendant plus d’un siècle, la famille Poinssot a réuni, imbriqué et rendu totalement solidaire avec le fonds archivistique un ensemble de livres, considérable par le nombre et remarquable par la thématique. Cette « bibliothèque Poinssot » n’est pas devenue une lost library, comme elle l’aurait été si, sans être détruits, les livres avaient été dispersés, conservant leur valeur informative érudite, mais ne permettant plus d’appréhender une évolution scientifique. Transformée par son transfert d..

Le dédicant Atespatus : un nom assuré

L’authenticité du nom du dédicant des bustes impériaux a été mise en doute jusqu’à ce qu’une autre offrande, un vase en bronze de Saint-Ambroix-sur-Arnon (Cher), livre la même identité : Atespatus, indigène celtique. Une des caractéristiques des deux bustes impériaux, qui est aussi l’un des éléments qui fit douter de leur authenticité, est l’onomastique du dédicant : « Atespatus, fils de Crixus. » Or, si Crixus était attesté, il n’en allait pas de même pour Atespatus, nom inconnu par ailleur..
