In this study, the content composition and antioxidant activity of goji berry fruits from two species (Lycium barbarum Lycium chinense) were assessed. The total carbohydrate phenolic contents evaluated using attenuated reflection Fourier-transform infrared (ATR-FT-IR) spectroscopy, while was examined with in vitro methods, which are based on scavenging 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH•) 2,2'-azino-bis(3-ethyl-benzthiazoline-sulfonic acid) (ABTS•⁺) free radicals. fatty-acid profile...

The aim of this study was to assess the antioxidant and antimutagenic activities ultrasound assisted aqueous extracts from dry goji berry fruits cultivated in Greece. extracts' free radical scavenging activity assessed by DPPH ABTS+ assays. results both assays demonstrated that exhibited strong with IC50 values ranging 1.29 3.00 mg/ml for 0.39 1.10 mg/mL assay. investigated also inhibited radical-induced DNA damage induced peroxyl (ROO) radicals 0.69 6.90 mg/mL. Τhe extract highest potency...

The aim of the present work was to investigate potential prebiotic action Goji berry powder on selected probiotic bacteria grown in a nutritive synthetic substrate and simulated gastric intestinal juices. Different strains Bifidobacterium Lactobacillus were these substrates with or without addition encapsulated goji extracts different polysaccharide polyphenol contents. results proved that promoted proliferation and, particular, increased number bacterial colonies animalis subsp. lactis...

The global interest in the use of plant by-product extracts as functional ingredients is continuously rising due to environmental, financial and health benefits. latest advances extraction technology have led production aqueous with high bioactive properties, which do not require organic solvents. purpose this study was optimize conditions applied for pomegranate peels (PP) via a “green” industrial type vacuum microwave-assisted (VMAAE), by assessing potential bioactivity (in terms phenolic...

In Greece, as in most European countries, the heterogeneity of students leads to conflicts resulting a general inability educational process function. This review study is focused on modern issues affecting youth and school education procedures such internet addiction, student behavior expressed bullying, adolescent sexuality development. All sides agree that essential purposes are emphasize cultivation interpersonal relationships, development sociability, self-esteem, prevention. Teachers...

Abstract Popularity of goji berry fruit extracts as functional ingredients is growing rapidly. “Green” aqueous extraction technologies are preferable to organic solvent‐based processes they improve the bioactivity and added value these extracts. This work aimed at optimizing ultrasound assisted (UAE) Lycium barbarum for both locally produced imported fruits comparing in relation conditions origin fruits, using a response surface model. The optimal solvent/extracted material ratio,...

Since ancient times, it has been noticed that Goji berry fruit juice, roots and leaves consist of ingredients contain a wide variety bioactive substances. The consumption goji fruits results in properties which improve the subjective feeling general well-being. aim this work is to present information from existing literature on possible role plant parts their extracts as functional food. Lycium barbarum Polysaccharides (LBP) polyphenols are most researched aspects associated with promotion...

The extraction efficacy of avocado fruit peels (AP) and seeds (AS) with the use vacuum microwave-assisted aqueous (VMAAE) was optimized in this study, regard to extract’s total phenolic content (TPC), maximum antioxidant activity minimal operational cost. Temperature (79.64 78.11 °C for AP 43.90 45.26 AS), time (11.89 11.75 min AP, 10.18 10.28 ratio water raw material (16.45% 10.02% 38.73% 37.65% AS) microwave power (5708.04 5699.10 W 5549.08 4797.29 were estimated statistically as optimal...

Teaching at any stage becomes effective when the student operates under influence of learning motivation. However, in some cases, there are students who either appear difficulties or request special interests on their own and can be characterized as “charismatic”. In Greece, “charismatic” usually not separated from rest often study receive same education students. As a result, potential is exploited motivation school grades reduced.The purpose this work to record actions means that should...

Potential synergistic action of aqueous extracts pomegranate peel (PP), avocado (AP), and seed (AS) wastes isolated by microwave-assisted extraction were assessed in vitro vivo assays as biocontrol agents against several plant pathogenic fungi. The study findings contribute to the utilization a value-added industrial byproduct provide significant value advancing development new protecting compositions that benefit from effects between two important species contain natural bioactive...

The present study aimed to assess the antimicrobial properties of encapsulated lyophilized powdered extracts pomegranate peels (PP), avocado (AP) and seeds (AS) in vitro vivo. Minimum Inhibitory Concentration (MIC) Minimal Bactericidal (MBC) methods, optical density measurement, well diffusion assay were used determine activity against food borne bacteria (Gram− Escherichia coli, Salmonella typhimurium, Campylobacter jejuni, Pseudomonas putida), (Gram+ Staphylococcus aureus, Listeria...

In the present study, pomegranate peels, avocado and seed vacuum microwave extraction solid by-products were supplemented in corn silage order to investigate effects on meat quality growth rate broiler chicken. There 50 broilers, divided two groups, treated with experimental or usual feed for 43 days (group A: 25 broilers fed group B: corn-silage used as control). The results showed that chickens a diet mixture of A) significant differences chicken leg quality, significantly improving level...

The use of technology has entered in vocational education and training (VET), there is a fundamental link between digital technologies educational pedagogical processes. modern teacher must change his/her mentality redefine role from simple provider knowledge to fellow traveller the learning process, changing their practices promoting successfully implementing technologies. contributes activeness students process encourages individual collaboration. Teachers can take advantage students'...

Polyphenols constitute a group of the most important bioactive compounds widely represented naturally in many plant species. Fresh tissues, residues, and agro-wastes contain consequent amounts polyphenolic compounds. In recent years, there is developing interest utilizing these for nutraceutical pharmaceutical applications due to their beneficial effects on human health potential improving quality food. However, effectiveness depending factors such as extraction technique, tissue, species...
