In a world where an eco-friendlier approach is becoming more and necessary, it essential to reduce waste production reuse residues of the company’s supply chain. Coffee silverskin (CS) spent coffee ground (SCG), two by-products production, are important sources bioactive compounds and, for this, some authors have proposed their in nutraceutical, food, cosmetic sector. However, potential enzyme inhibitory properties been poorly investigated. Hence, objective current work was study enzymatic...
Several species within the genera Cassia or Senna have a treasure of traditional medicines worldwide and can be promising source bioactive molecules. The objective present study was to evaluate phenolic content antioxidant enzyme inhibition activities leaf methanolic extracts C. fistula L., grandis S. alexandrina Mill., italica Mill. two spp. contained higher total polyphenolic (42.23-49.75 mg GAE/g) than spp., had significantly (p ˂ 0.05) highest concentration. On other hand, showed...

Pure Brew represents a real innovation because it allows one to obtain fast-filter coffee with an espresso machine without the need for barista purchase additional equipment. This study investigated difference between Brew, French Press, V60 and AeroPress in terms of physical chemical characteristics, extraction yields, volatile compounds by GC-MS bioactive molecules UHPLC-MS resulting coffee, studying also powder particle size. Finally, main results showed that is comparable other methods...
Diabetes mellitus (DM) is a metabolic disease characterized by high blood sugar level that can cause severe complications to the organism or even death when not treated. However, certain dietary habits and foods may have beneficial effects on this condition. A polyphenolic-rich extract (containing hyperoside, isoquercitrin, quercetin, ellagic acid, vanillic acid) of Tageres erecta L. (T. erecta) was obtained from yellow orange flowers using an ethanolic Soxhlet extraction. These extracts...
Water-resistant and environmentally friendly sodium-alginate-based films have been investigated to develop functional materials extend the food’s shelf-life. A water-stable alginate-based film was prepared, employing both internal external gelation approach in presence of CaCl2. To apply this food packaging thus preserve quality, aim work is perform a chemical physical characterization proposed materials, evidencing main features stability under different conditions. Water contact angle...
Spinal cord (SC) atrophy, i.e. a reduction in the SC cross-sectional area (CSA) over time, can be measured by means of image segmentation using magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). However, methods have been limited factors relating to reproducibility or sensitivity change. The purpose this study was evaluate fully automated method (PropSeg), and compare semi-automated active surface (AS) method, healthy controls (HC) people with multiple sclerosis (MS). MRI data from 120 were retrospectively...
Solvent-free microwave-assisted extraction (MAE) is a green method capable of boosting the yield and quality profile hemp essential oil when compared with other conventional techniques. During this process, two by-products are produced, namely aqueous residue containing bioactive phenolics residual deterpenated biomass, which can be used for further purification phytocannabinoids. To date, industry has not utilized these products, although they valuable food, cosmetic, nutraceutical...
Strawberry is the most consumed berry fruit worldwide due to its unique aroma and flavor. Drying fruits produce a powder represents one of possible conservation methods extend their shelf-life. The aim present study was compare influence freezing different drying on volatile profile strawberry using HS-SPME/GC–MS method, in addition analysis jam volatiles. A total 165 compounds were identified, accounting for 85.03–96.88% compositions. Results PCA showed that each process affected way,...
Green coffee (Coffee arabica and Coffee robusta) is one of the most commonly traded goods globally. Their beans are enriched with polyphenols numerous health benefits associated their consumption. The main aim this work was to develop a new fast analytical HPLC-MS/MS method simultaneously determine six flavonoid polyphenolic compounds (quercetin, rutin, isorhamnetin, quercetin-3-glucouronide, hyperoside, quercitrin) in 22 green samples from different geographical origins (Ethiopia, Brazil,...
Abstract Six extracts (water, ethanol, ethanol‐water, ethyl acetate, dichloromethane, and n ‐hexane) of Astragalus caraganae were studied for their biological activities bioactive contents. Based on high‐performance liquid chromatography‐mass spectrometry (HPLC‐MS), the ethanol‐water extract yielded highest total content (4242.90 µg g −1 ), followed by ethanol water (3721.24 3661.37 , respectively), while least was hexane extract, dichloromethane acetate (47.44, 274.68, 688.89 respectively)....
Rice has become a major staple cereal in sub-Saharan Africa. Currently, upland rice cultivation is expanding particularly rainfed areas where the root parasitic weed Striga hermonthica, constraint to production, endemic. Laboratory, pot, and semi-controlled open air experiments were performed evaluate resistance of selected varieties Sudan resident S. hermonthica population. In laboratory, 27 screened for post-attachment using rhizotron technique. Varieties displaying high resistance, Umgar,...
Black mulberry, Morus nigra L. (family: Moraceae), is a healthy food and medicinal plant. Microwave hydrodiffusion gravity (MHG) one of the most innovative applications solvent-free microwave extraction. The aim this study was to optimize for first time MHG extraction polyphenols sugars from M. fruits. Optimization carried out using central composite design (CCD) with selected responses such as yield, total polyphenol (TPC), flavonoid (TFC), anthocyanin (TAC), sugar (TSC) contents, in...
Sweet chestnuts (Castanea sativa Mill.) are highly prized nuts, and the consumption of fresh is usually preceded by roasting, boiling, frying. The aim this work was to simultaneously analyze 29 polyphenolic compounds for first time in raw, boiled, roasted, fried chestnut seeds shells using HPLC-MS/MS. Principal component analysis depending on HPLC-MS/MS results showed that frying affected contents 25 detected phenolic a unique way, which most notable phenolics were gallic acid, ellagic...
