Punicalagin, one of the main active compounds in pomegranate peel, has been reported to possess many properties, including antioxidant, antimicrobial, antiviral, and immunosuppressive activities. The aim this study was investigate antibacterial effect punicalagin against Staphylococcus aureus possible mode action. Growth inhibition activity examined by agar diffusion method. Then dilution method adopted determine minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC). effects on cell membrane were assessed...
Punicalagin, an essential component of pomegranate rind, has been demonstrated to possess antimicrobial activity against several food-borne pathogens, but its on the virulence pathogens and anti-quorum-sensing (anti-QS) potential have rarely reported. This study investigated efficacy subinhibitory concentrations punicalagin Salmonella factors QS systems. A broth microdilution method was used determine MICs for 10 strains. Motility assay quantitative reverse transcription (RT)-PCR were...
The impact of various substitution levels natural inulin on the rheological, physicochemical and structural properties frozen dough was evaluated in this study. Natural increased G′ G″ samples. displayed characteristics with increasing stability protein structure, enhancing interaction tightly bound water starch polymers, more uniform gluten network structure. freezing storage processes can lead to quality deterioration. could alleviate damage long-term quality, protecting reducing loss...
Scope Endothelial dysfunction and inflammation are both common events occurring during the development of atherosclerosis. Previous studies have shown that urolithins, intestinal microflora metabolites ellagitannin, exhibit anti‐inflammation antioxidative properties. This study aims to investigate protective effect urolithin A (UA) on ox‐LDL‐induced (where ox‐LDL is oxidized low‐density lipoprotein) endothelial possible modes action. Methods results Human artery cells were incubated with 50...
This study aimed to determine the antimicrobial activity of thymoquinone (TQ) against L. monocytogenes, and examine its inhibitory effects on biofilm formation, motility, hemolysin production, attachment-invasion host cells. The minimum concentrations (MICs) TQ eight different monocytogenes strains ranged from 6.25–12.50 μg/mL. Crystal violet staining showed that clearly reduced biomass at sub-MICs in a dose-dependent manner. Scanning electron microscopy suggested inhibited formation glass...
Vacuolar H+-pumping pyrophosphatases (VPs) provide a proton gradient for Na+ sequestration in the tonoplast; however, regulatory mechanisms of VPs developing salt tolerance have not been fully elucidated. Here, we cloned barley (Hordeum vulgare) VP gene (HVP10) that was identified previously as HvNax3 gene. Homology analysis showed VP10 plants had conserved structure and sequence likely originated from ancestors Ceramiales order Rhodophyta (Cyanidioschyzon merolae). HVP10 mainly expressed...
Pomegranate rind has been reported to inhibit several foodborne pathogens, and its antimicrobial activity attributed mainly tannin fraction. This study aimed investigate the of tannin-rich fraction from pomegranate (TFPR) against Listeria monocytogenes mechanism action. The tannin-related components TFPR were analyzed by high-performance liquid chromatography chromatography-mass spectrometry, minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) was determined using agar dilution method. Extracellular...
Ovalbumin (OVA), the main protein in egg white, affects most of functional properties white food processing. The aim this study was to investigate effects spray drying (SD) and microwave freeze (MFD) on preparation hydrolyzed/glycosylated ovalbumin (HGOVA) provide useful information applications powders industry. Results demonstrated that structure HGOVA considerably changed, its were improved compared with those native OVA. SD MFD processing did not lead dissociation subunits. SD-HGOVA...
This study aims to characterize lactic acid bacteria (LAB) in pickles and investigate the effect of fermentation on phenolic compounds peony flowers. Six strains Lactobacillus plantarum one strain Weissella identified by 16S rRNA sequencing met safety standards confirmed metabolite assessment antibiotic resistance analysis. NPLP12 exhibited excellent characteristics its tolerance, adhesion, antioxidant indicators all demonstrated potential as probiotics starter. After with NPLP12, content...
Vibrio parahaemolyticus is a halophilic Gram-negative foodborne pathogen that widely distributed in marine environments. It can cause acute gastroenteritis and other diseases. This study aimed to investigate the antivirulence activity of thymoquinone (TQ) on V. parahaemolyticus. TQ was shown effectively inhibit Subminimum inhibitory concentrations inhibited swimming swarming motility, quorum sensing, biofilm formation, ability adhere invade host cells, expression virulence-associated genes...
Volatile esters, primarily synthesized in peel tissues, are major aromatic components of apple fruits [Malus sylvestris (L.) Mill. var. domestica (Borkh.) Mansf.]. The use cold storage combined with 1-methylcyclopropene (1-MCP) treatment prolongs the life apples but represses regeneration esters during poststorage ripening. In this study, total was significantly increased treated salicylic acid (SA) and Ethephon (ETH) that had been once or twice 1-MCP. However, methyl jasmonate (MeJA)...
Staphylococcus aureus, a bacterial, food-borne pathogen of humans, can contaminate raw fruits and vegetables. While physical chemical methods are available to control S. scientists searching for inhibitory phytochemicals from plants. One promising compound pomegranate is punicalagin, natural antibiotic. To get broader understanding the effect punicalagin on aureus growth, high-throughput mass spectrometry quantitative isobaric labeling was used investigate proteome after exposure sublethal...
We investigated the effects of Fufang Kushen Injection Liquid (FFKSIL) on gastric immunity and oxidant-antioxidant status during N-methyl-N′-nitro-N-nitroso-guanidine (MNNG)-induced carcinogenesis. The extent lipid peroxidation levels reduced glutathione (GSH) activities GSH-dependent enzymes superoxide dismutase (SOD), catalase (CAT) peroxidase (GSH-Px) were used to monitor peroxidative balance. Enhanced in cancer animals was accompanied by significant decreases GSH, GPx, GST GR....
