The aim of this study was to assess shelf life and nutritional value apple juice, including the content bioactive compounds, after pulsed electric field (PEF) treatment, taking into account different number cycles: 4, 6, 8 (total 200, 300, 400 pulses, respectively). Determination vitamin C polyphenols concentration, antioxidant activity as well microbiological analysis were conducted immediately PEF process 24, 48 72 h storage. results showed that did not affect compounds. PEF-treated juice...
Monoaldehydes, due to natural origin and therapeutic activity, have attracted great attention for their ability crosslink chitosan hydrogels biomedical applications. However, most studies focused on single-component hydrogels. In this work, chitosan-based hydrogels, crosslinked the first time with 2,3,4-trihydroxybenzaldehyde (THBA), were modified pectin (PC), bioactive glass (BG), rosmarinic acid (RA). All of these not only involved in crosslinking, but also modulated properties or imparted...
Garlic is commonly used as vegetable or spice and a herb in folklore well traditional medicine many countries. The current study aimed to compare the chemical composition, antioxidant activity, content of selected polyphenolic compounds cloves leaves winter garlic plants Harnaś Ornak cultivars, which are Polish origin. was grown from for three years (2018-2020) experimental field University Agriculture Krakow, Poland. research material harvested on dates: May; June, unripe plants; July,...
Lonicera caerulea L. is new edible species, which cultivated for its healthy properties of fruit; however the fresh fruit characterized by short shelf-life. Therefore studies were undertaken to extend post-harvest permanence honeysuckle fruit. The experiments carried out assess quality fruits four blue cultivars after short-term storage in controlled (20 % CO2 and 5 O2) (CA) modified atmosphere (MAP) Xtend bags. Storage a normal (NA) served as control conditions. Significant impact condition...
In recent years, the modification of biodegradable aliphatic polyesters with bioactive ceramics and plant-derived active agents has gained much attention in biomedical applications. They provide significant improvement biological functionality synthetic polymers. However, they simultaneously affect numerous physicochemical properties. this work, for first time, effect incorporation polyphenols (PPh) extracted from sage sol-gel-derived glass (BG) particles, either alone or combination, into...
In this work, polymeric and bioactive glass (BG)-modified composite films were successfully loaded with polyphenols (PPh) extracted from sage. It was hypothesized that PPh, alone in combination BGs particles, would affect physicochemical biological properties of the films. Furthermore, sol-gel-derived BG particles serve as an agent for control release polyphenolic compounds, other important related to presence PPh. The results showed compounds significantly modified numerous material also...
In this study, multilayer microcapsules (two-layer and four-layer) based on furcellaran (FUR) chitosan (CHIT) were produced, enclosing a tripeptide with an antioxidant effect-glutathione-in different concentrations. addition, for the first time, empty, four-layer microcapsule CHIT FUR (ECAPS) was obtained, which can be used to contain sensitive, active substances of hydrophobic nature. Layering monitored using zeta potential, presence resulting capsules confirmed by SEM imaging. current we...
Bioactive compounds are molecules that may have therapeutic potential with influence on oxidative stress, pro-inflammatory state and metabolic disorders. Herbs recognized as a significant source of natural antioxidants. The aim this study was to determine the antioxidant properties peppermint (Mentha piperita L.), lemon balm (Melissa officinalis L.) lavender (Lavandula angustifolia Mill.). Fresh plant materials were harvested obtained from Experimental Station Agriculture University in...
In recent years many researchers have taken into account other parts of plants than commonly edible ones because their beneficial chemical composition. The objective the study was to determine content bioactive compounds, including HPLC analysis polyphenols, and antioxidant activity leaves, petioles, fruit selected cultivars sweet cherry. Cultivars Kordia, Regina, Vega, Hedelfińska Vanda from Sandomierz (Poland), Summit Szczodrkowice (Poland) as well cherries imported Spain Hungary (only...
The electrophoretic deposition (EPD) of Tea Tree Oil (TTO)/chitosan and Terpinen-4-ol/chitosan coatings on titanium substrates with different surface preparations was examined. performed vertical horizontal configurations electrodes, called EPD, respectively, following the direction electric field. data obtained showed influence both electrode configuration substrate preparation EPD process as well coating properties, such adhesion, morphology, microstructure, roughness, topography...
The increasing knowledge on health benefit properties of plant origin food ingredients supports recommendations for the use edible plants in prevention diet related diseases, including cancer. beneficial effects young shoots red cabbage can be attributed to their mixture phytochemicals possessing antioxidant and potential anticancer activity. objective this study was compare content bioactive compounds, HPLC analysis polyphenols activity vegetable at full maturity. vitamin C juices obtained...
Studies on herb chia (
White mustard plant (Sinapis alba L.) is an easy-to-grow species with low soil requirements and often sown as a catch crop in Northern Europe to reduce nitrate leaching, especially during the winter. There are studies showing high nutritional value of seeds, which have wide application, mainly food production. Still little known about young shoots or plants different cultivars white mustard, although Asian countries, eating them raw quite common. The aim research was determine proximate...
Brussels sprouts are a source of polyphenolic compounds. However, their concentration is affected by many factors depending on the plant material, hydrothermal treatment methods and digestion in gastrointestinal tract. The aim this study was to determine effect antioxidant activity, profile polyphenols Brassica oleracea var. gemmifera an vitro simulated model. showed significant type total polyphenol concentration, acid profile, flavonoid content activity. Traditional boiling water least...
Antioxidants are added to foods decrease the adverse effect of reactive species that create undesirable compounds destroy essential nutrients and, therefore, lower nutritional, chemical and physical properties foods. This study was carried out determine antioxidant flowers plant stems with leaves Echinacea purpurea grown mulches different colours thicknesses. Coneflowers were in Experimental Station Agricultural University Kraków, Poland. The mulching materials used black, green brown 100...
This study deals with the design and comprehensive evaluation of novel hydrogels based on whey protein isolate (WPI) for tissue regeneration. So far, WPI has been considered mainly as a food industry by-product there are very few reports application in engineering (TE). In this work, WPI-based were modified bioactive glass (BG), which is commonly used bone substitute material. Ready-to-use, sterile produced by simple technique, namely heat-induced gelation. Two different concentrations (10...
