Nowadays, bioactive peptides are used for therapeutic applications and the selection of a carrier to deliver them is very important increase efficiency, absorption, release, bioavailability consumer acceptance. The aim this study was develop characterize chitosan-based films loaded with chitosan microparticles containing peptide (sequence: KGYGGVSLPEW) antihypertensive properties. Films were prepared by solvent casting method, while ionic gelation. final optimized exhibited mean diameter 2.5...
In times of pandemic and when sustainability is in vogue, the use byproducts, such as fiber-rich tomato can be an asset. There are still no studies on impact extraction methodologies gastrointestinal tract action bioactive properties. Thus, this study used a solid fraction obtained after conventional method (SFCONV) ohmic (SFOH) to analyze effect compounds (BC) bioactivities. Results showed that SFOH presents higher total fiber than SFCONV samples, 62.47 ± 1.24–59.06 0.67 g/100 g DW,...
Poor aqueous solubility, stability and bioavailability of interesting bioactive compounds is a challenge in the development formulations. Cellulose nanostructures are promising sustainable carriers with unique features that may be used enabling delivery strategies. In this work, cellulose nanocrystals (CNC) nanofibers were investigated as for curcumin, model liposoluble compound. Nanocellulose modification surfactant cetyltrimethylammonium bromide (CTAB), tannic acid decylamine (TADA), by...
Background: Biological molecules such as therapeutic proteins and peptides have provided ample opportunities for further improvements in health wellbeing. However, biomacromolecules face stability challenges regarding premature processing digestion, whenever any enteric delivery route is considered. Hence, oral guar films entrapping peptide-containing chitosan microparticles been developed a new system to carry protect relaxing peptides. Results: The composite were characterized...
Curcumin is a natural phenolic compound with important biological functions. Despite its demonstrated efficacy in vitro, curcumin activities vivo are dependent on bioaccessibility and bioavailability, which have been highlighted as crucial challenge. Cetyltrimethylammonium bromide-modified cellulose nanocrystals (CNC-CTAB) shown to be effective encapsulation, they the potential enhance outcomes. This study evaluated effects of encapsulated within CNC-CTAB structures, namely antioxidant,...
O objetivo deste estudo é demonstrar que a utilização generalizada das Redes Protegidas viável em todas situações encontradas nos meios urbanos.
O objetivo do presente trabalho foi avaliar a eficiência da estimação altura de mudas Tibouchina granulosa em função diâmetro coleto, sob diferentes composições substrato, empregando Redes Neurais Artificiais (RNA). Foram selecionadas 72 produzidas via tubetes para repicagem baldes 25 litros. Adotou-se delineamento experimental inteiramente casualizado, com três repetições, sendo os tratamentos constituídos por quatro substrato. Cada unidade composta seis mudas. Aos 13 meses idade foram...
