Euterpe oleracea Mart., a plant from the Amazon region, is commonly known as açaí or juçara; it has high nutritional value and elevated levels of lipids, proteins, minerals. Açaí an abundant much consumed fruit by local population, studies have demonstrated that rich in phytochemicals with antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, anticancer activities. Therefore, aim this study was to test for activity different human malignant cell lines. Cell lines derived breast colorectal adenocarcinomas were...
Solid lipid nanoparticles (SLNs) represent promising nanostructures for drug delivery systems. This study successfully synthesized SLNs containing different proportions of babassu oil (BBS) and copaiba oleoresin (COPA) via the emulsification–ultrasonication method. Before SLN synthesis, identification quantification methyl esters, such as lauric acid β-caryophyllene, were performed GC-MS analysis. These esters used chemical markers assisted in encapsulation efficiency experiments. A 22...
A composição de ácidos graxos seis amostras Orbignya phalerata diferentes cidades do estado Maranhão foi estudada.Os óleos foram extraídos utilizando extrator Soxhlet por duas metodologias e a avaliada cromatografia gasosa-espectrometria massas (CG-EM).O teor da fração lipídios revelou que o solvente usado influencia na extração, sendo maior porcentagem obtida com hexano.O variou 62,46-67,45%, predominância saturados (80,32-87,80%), principalmente ácido láurico (C12:0) percentual...
In this work, the efficient removal of Remazol Turquoise textile dye onto water hyacinth ( Eichhornia crassipes ) from aqueous solutions was investigated by batch method. The collected, washed, dried, crushed and treated with a 0,25 mol L -1 HNO 3 , at 50 °C 24 h. Parameters such as pHpzc, pH effect, contact time temperature were considered. kinetic adsorption data analyzed using Lagergren, Ho, Zeldowitsch (Elovich), Weber-Morris models, Langmuir, Freundlich, Tempkin, Redlich-Peterson, Sips...
The fatty acid composition of six Orbignya phalerata samples different cities from Maranhão State (Brazil) was studied. oils were extracted by two methods using Soxhlet extractor and the evaluated gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS) analysis. lipid fraction content showed that solvent used influences extraction, highest percent obtained with hexane. Lipid ranged 62.46-67.45%, predominance saturated acids (80.32-87.80%), mainly lauric (C12:0) 44.86 to 52.15%. Multivariate analysis...
HIGHLIGHTS Production of lipid nanoemulsions (<100 nm) industrial interest with low energy demand. The antioxidant properties babassu oil have been improved and the are not cytotoxic. Babassu is a food medicinal product. nanoemulsion strategic for developed new antioxidants phytotherapeutics.
Abstract Polymer latexes can be fractionated by size and chemical composition through osmocentrifugation. Density gradients are formed centrifuging Ficoll Percoll solutions in dialysis cells; mixed polymer latex zones layered over these centrifuged again, leading to separated bands from which may collected further analyzed. Zone migration rates the osmocentrifugation experiment faster than standard centrifugation tubes.
Background: Species of mycotoxin-producing fungi are potentially dangerous to humans and animals. The liver is the best-known organ action these substances. aim this study was isolate microscopic from honey investigate cytotoxic effect extract Penicillium sp. in an experimental model. Methods: Honey samples were cultured Sabouraud agar. After isolated identified microscopically, colonies genus transplanted dextrose agar culture medium. its development, they processed obtain extract. Eighteen...
Com o objetivo de verificar as caracteristicas fisico-quimicas amostras meis provenientes do municipio Brejo, foram analisadas oito amostras, sendo quatro obtidas diretamente dos apicultores e coletadas das colmeias. As analises compreenderam a determinacao umidade, acidez, acucares redutores, sacarose aparente, hidroximetilfurfural (HMF), minerais cor. assepticamente colmeias apresentaram-se dentro padroes estabelecidos pela legislacao brasileira para os parâmetros fisico-quimicos, apenas...
