PPAR antagonists are ligands that bind their receptor with high affinity without transactivation activity. Recently, they have been demonstrated to maintain insulin-sensitizing and antidiabetic properties, serve as an alternative treatment for metabolic diseases. In this work, affinity-based bioassay was found be effective selecting from the dried extract of African plant (Diospyros bipindensis). Among ligands, we identified betulinic acid (BA), a compound already known its...
This study introduces an optimized microwave-assisted extraction (MAE) method for the recovery of fatty acids from wheat bran, strategically implemented to maximize efficiency while fully adhering sustainability practices. For environmentally friendly approach, ethanol was selected as solvent, used alongside potassium hydroxide (KOH) facilitate extraction. The effect water content on yields investigated, with results confirming that negatively affects ethanolysis. systematically refined...
Functional polyacrylate-based materials rationally designed by high internal phase emulsion (polyHIPE) are reported.
PolyHIPE functional materials were chemically conjugated with a model enzyme. It retained its activity upon flow as demonstrated by the conversion of specific substrate.
Abstract The volatile fractions isolated from Prangos peucedanifolia Fenzl leaves and flowers were investigated for their phytochemical composition biological properties. Flower leaf hydrodistillation afforded 3.14 0.49 g of yellowish oils in 1.25 0.41% yields, respectively, dry vegetable materials. According to the GC‐FID GC/MS analyses, 36 (99.35% total oil composition) 26 compounds (89.12%) identified two oils, respectively. major constituents flower fraction β ‐pinene (35.58%), α...
Euphorbiaceae barks are known to contain an appreciable amount of polyphenolic compounds responsible for several biological activities. Preliminary extraction from Bridelia grandis stem bark afforded high content polyphenols, determined by spectrophotometric methods such as Folin-Ciocalteu (for total phenols, TP) and n-butanol-HCl condensed tannins, CT). A preliminary Plackett-Burman screening design was used identify the key factors that influence TP CT extraction. Between all variables...
The growing demand for chitin and chitosan makes it necessary to look new sources of these polymers develop more environmentally friendly methods their isolation. subjects the current study were extracted from shells two crayfish species: P. leptodactylus F. limosus. obtained characterized by physicochemical properties (molecular weight, thermal stability, structure). was evaluated regarding biocompatibility antimicrobial activity. yield limosus with a standard method 22 ± 2.7% 20 3.6%...
