The thermal degradation of the anthocyanins and antioxidant activity in purple maize extracts was determined between 80 180 °C. were found to be thermostable temperature range 120 °C, whereas at higher temperatures both followed a first-order kinetic model. z-values started from 61.72 ± 2.28 °C for 75.75 2.87 activity. conformational space pairs model anthocyanin molecules 25 explored through molecular dynamics test, results indicated occurrence intermolecular self-association reactions...
(1) Background: A sustainable healthy diet assures human well-being in all life stages, protects environmental resources, and preserves biodiversity. This work investigates the sociodemographic factors, knowledge, trust, motivations involved organic food acquisition behavior. (2) Methods: An online survey via Google Forms platform, with 316 respondents, was conducted from 1 March to 31 May 2024. (3) Results: Our findings show that suitably informed people high educational levels (academic...
This study aimed to use eggplant peels as a potential source of anthocyanins with biological activities. Two different extraction methods were tested in order obtain extracts high anthocyanin content. The selected the solid–liquid (SLE) and ultrasound-assisted (UAE) methods. For each method, two concentrations ethanol (EtOH) used, while varying time temperature. Based on results, obtained by SLE using EtOH 96% after 30 min at 50 °C showed highest concentration. UAE allowed best results 25...
It has been discovered that the peel of a pumpkin (
Cornelian cherry fruits are rich in health-related compounds. In the present study, ultrasound-assisted extraction was used to maximize recovery of anthocyanins and phenolic compounds from cornelian cherry. The optimal conditions were determined influence independent variables checked through response surface methodology. maximum anthocyanin total obtained after 40 min at 30°C, when performing with aqueous ethanol 80% 60%, respectively. major identified HPLC cyanidin-3-rutinoside...
Manufacturing beer with a high biological value requires identifying new methods for increasing the health-enhancing compounds level. The aim of this study was to increase by adding antioxidant-rich eggplant (Solanum melongena L.) peel extract (EPE). total phenolic content (TPC), flavonoid (TFC), and monomeric anthocyanin (TMA) were determined. Moreover, antioxidant activity evaluated different radical scavenging assays. addition levels EPE resulted in significant TPC TFC samples from 0.426...
Anthocyanins from black currant extract and lactic acid bacteria were co-microencapsulated using a gastro-intestinal-resistant biocomposite of whey protein isolate, inulin, chitosan, with an encapsulation efficiency 95.46% ± 1.30% 87.38% 0.48%, respectively. The applied freeze-drying allowed dark purple stable powder to be obtained, satisfactory content phytochemicals 11 log colony forming units (CFU)/g dry weight (DW). Confocal laser microscopy displayed complex system, several large...
Background/Objectives: Immunoglobulin A (IgA) vasculitis (IgAV), classically known as Henoch-Schönlein purpura (HSP), is a type of nonthrombocytopenic small-vessel vasculitis. HSP the most frequent kind systemic in children, characterized by purpura, arthritis or arthralgia, gastrointestinal pain, and kidney dysfunction. The aim our research was to investigate observe clinical characteristics children diagnosed with explore correlation between infectious diseases HSP. Furthermore, this...

Gheorghe)...
Laryngeal cancer represents the malignant degeneration, of epithelial nature or from connective tissue, which starts in constitutive elements larynx. Cancer localization larynx between 1% and 3% all tumors approximately 50% ear, nose throat (ENT) tumors. Squamous cell carcinoma is most common form (around 95%) laryngeal cancer, with high incidence human males southern central Europe, Romania occupying one top places.Our study consisted 490 patients diagnosed 2010 to 2016. They have been...
Beetroot (Beta vulgaris L.) represents a very rich source of bioactive compounds such as phenolic and carotenoids, among which the most important being betalains, mainly betacyanins betaxanthins. The beetroot matrix was used in fresh or dried form lyophilized powder. A 1012 CFU/g inoculum Lactobacillus plantarum MIUG BL3 culture sprayed on vegetal tissue. lactic acid bacteria (LAB) viability for all products evaluated over 21 days, by microbiological methods. antioxidant activity obtained...
Two drying methods (convective (CD) and infrared (IR)) on grape pomace with probiotics were analysed, based kinetic models survival rate. The moisture ratio decreases linearly time. IR time reduced up to 14.3% at 50 °C. Page model allowed calculate the constant (0.188-0.404 s-1), whereas effective diffusivity ranged from 6.64 × 10-9 9.38 m2/s for CD 8.83 11.16 IR, respectively. Chromatographic analysis highlighted presence of 28 anthocyanins, cyanidin-3-O-monoglucoside as a main bioactive in...
