The need to devise another method of synthesizing nanoparticles from sources that are eco-friendly, non-hazardous and cost effectiveness is great importance in preventing environmental health problems. aim this study was evaluate the efficiency Garcinia kola leaves as reducing stabilizing agent for silver synthesis. obtained were authenticated, air dried, pulverized extracted. extract mixed with aqueous solution nitrate form characterized using Ultra violet (UV) spectroscopy, Fourier...
Abstract This article explores the potential of a specific functional food mix containing lycopene, pigment found in tomatoes, for its role cervical cancer prevention and treatment. The assesses cytotoxic effects on cells conducts molecular docking analysis to understand biological activities binding interactions lycopene. formulations are analysed their phytochemical profile, vitro antioxidant evaluated using spectrophotometric methods. Cytotoxicity tests demonstrate that ethanol extract...
The inhibition performance of 5-methyl-3-phenylisoxazole-4-carboxylic acid (MPC) alone and in combination with potassium iodide (KI) for low carbon steel 1.0 M HCl H2SO4 solutions is studied using weight loss, potentiodynamic polarization (PDP), electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS), linear resistance (LPR), ultraviolet–visible (UV–vis) spectrophotometry, surface observation methods. influence solution temperature on the MPC + KI also investigated. Results obtained indicate that...
This study sought to compare the antioxidant properties [1,1-diphenyl–2 picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) and hydroxyl (OH) radicals scavenging abilities] inhibition of Fe2+-induced lipid peroxidation two key enzymes relevant type-2 diabetes (α-amylase α-glucosidase) snake tomato (Trichosanthes cucumerina) with varieties [Lycopersicon esculentum Mill. var. esculentum (ESC) and Lycopersicon var. cerasiforme(CER)]. Snake (0.84 mg/g) CER (0.87 had...
Continuous quest for safe environment has led to 'green' approach of synthesizing nanoparticles. The method is easy, eco-friendly and cost-effective. Locally sourced medicinal plant Canna indica was used as capping/stabilizing agent instead toxic chemicals. Secondary metabolites in the extract acted reducing agents. Optical measurements were carried out using Uv-vis spectrophotometer photoluminescence (PL). Formation core-shell detected TEM micrograph, which supported by two peaks observed...
The world is currently trending towards the discovery of foods that can also serve as nutraceuticals which are highly beneficial to human health. Fortification yoghurt with fresh tomato juice has shown incorporate lycopene into yoghurt, in turn, increased nutritional benefit yoghurt. Tomato was added increasing levels 0, 50, 100, 150 and 200 w/w% plain Ash, carbohydrate, moisture pH, viscosity content were all analyzed using standard methods. Results showed ash carbohydrate improved direct...
The deficiency in affordable nourishing foods for neonates after weaning has been major concern developing countries and this contributed to increased malnutrition rate, illnesses even children’s mortality rate. addition of wheat offal traditionally ‘Ogi’ as an alternative approach combating the threats protein was explored work. Wheat added at increasing levels 0, 20, 40, 60, 80 100 w/w% fortifying feed with prepared maize-Ogi meal. Proximate analysis, pasting characteristics, sensory...
Abstract The high cost, scarce availability, and some extraneous side effects of pharmaceuticals have diverted the majority’s mindset towards use nutraceuticals as both prophylactic therapeutic alternatives. cancer incidence in low middle-income countries has risen due to several factors, but notably, it been poverty non-availability screening centers. non-toxic nature, cost food-based a significant advantage its users. Solanum lycopersicum is well-known possess excellent antioxidant,...
Abstract Nanoparticles have found applications in wide areas due to their unique properties. Green synthesis of nanoparticles is an ecofriendly, safe and non-toxic approach that solve the problems associate with conventional methods. Waterborne pathogenic diseases resulted millions deaths humans especially children annually infectious microorganism associated water all shown multiple resistance treatments. Bacteria biofilm accounts for majority microbial infections are more resistant...
Researchers are constantly looking at the development of functional foods from local materials that offer both nutritional and therapeutic potentials. The study investigated proximate composition, antioxidant capacity, phytochemical profile different compositions formulations produced tomato carrot. plant were sourced locally, dried to a uniform weight, milled using mechanical blender. Nutritional indices, viz., analysis, analyzed standard protocol. phytocompounds present in their vitro...
Abstract The high-calorie ingredients used in the production of cakes has made older age group to desist from eating because detrimental effects human body. A substitution approach using moringa leaf powder peanut cake address this effect was utilized. added succession 0, 2, 4, 6, 8 and 10 w/w% fortify cakes. Standard methods were assess proximate analysis sensory evaluation blends. showed an increased protein (13.83 -16.68%), fat (0.86 – 4.55%) crude fibre (1.24 2.23%) contents with...
Abstract Groundwater pollution by Non-Aqueous Phase Liquids (NAPLs) has become an increasing threat. This article studied the steam injection efficiency in groundwater remediation contaminated with non-aqueous phase liquid (diesel) through a bench-scale laboratory experiment. The experimental set up consists of boiler and sandbox. Steam, which was generated from supplied to sandbox at rate 0.14m 3 /s, pressure 1.5bar temperature 150°C. initial volume diesel used 500ml. At supply sandbox, it...
