Nutrition and food are one of the most complex aspects human lives, being influenced by biochemical, psychological, social cultural factors. The Western diet is prototype modern dietary pattern mainly characterized intake large amounts red meat, dairy products, refined grains sugar. Large scientific evidence positively correlate to acne, obesity, diabetes, heart disease cancer, so-called "diseases civilization". pathophysiological common ground all these pathologies IGF-1 mTORC pathways,...
Camelina sativa is mainly used as an oilseed crop; its edible oil being also a traditional home remedy for the treatment of ulcers, wounds, and eye inflammations, due to antioxidant activities. In present study, chemically characterized alcoholic extracts var. Madalina defatted seeds (5 g/kg body weight p.o., suspended in CMC-Na 0.1%) were administered stress-induced animal models irritable bowel syndrome (based on combinations contention stress multifactorial maternal stress) evaluated...
The aim of the study was to characterize Bacillus subtilis ATCC 6051a strain, in order establish its probiotic utility piglet nutrition. strain assayed morphologically, culturally, biochemically, for hemolytic activity and enzymatically (amylase protease). identification analysis biochemical characteristics performed by catalase assay, API 50 CHB Biomerieux strips, apiweb V 4.0 soft (B. very good identification, 99.4% ID) ABIS online. on blood agar medium. growth evaluated two ways: static...
Camelina, is relatively a new crop though known for humanity from ancient times.Camelina draw attention its oil rich in fatty acids therefore researchers began to focus on it variety of studies the growing practices animal feed and chemical composition seed their uses.This experiment was conducted determine amino content groats three camelina varieties (Mădălina, created by BIOTEHGEN collaboration with University Agricultural Sciences Veterinary Bucharest, Calena, Austrian origins local...
Miscanthus giganteus biomass has a very good quality for combustion (similar as light coal or wood, up to 19.6 MJ/kg dry matter) and positive ecological impact marginal land that makes this crop suitable bioenergy resources small scale heating systems. The most important technology make easily available feedstock on the market is briquetting pelleting. This study was conducted determine capability of mixing with other vegetable (straw, wood sawdust, energetic plants) obtain briquettes...
Irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) is a common chronic functional gastrointestinal impairment, which includes also variety of psychological and psychiatric comorbidities.The oxidative stress was earlier reported as presenting an important part the IBS complex pathophysiology.In present study, we determined fatty acids profile thereafter effects Camelina sativa Madalina cold pressed oil in zymosan-induced model IBS.We are showing here some facilitatory this context, both on behavioral...
This study aimed to evaluate some probiotic properties of Bacillus subtilis ATCC 6051a. The phenotypic profile, resistance pH by simulated gastric juice (pH 2 and 3), bile salts intestinal fluid, survivability (%), heat antibiotics tolerance were investigated. strain is a Gram-positive, rod-shaped bacteria, arranged in short chains or small irregular pairs with the ability produce spores. Good viability at 3, survival more than ≥80%, was found. In presence 0.3%, over 4 h, exhibited ≥85%. At...
Protein hydrolysates are widely used in agricultural crops for improving plant nutrient uptake, growth, yield, and fruit quality. Tomato (Lycopersicon esculentum Mill.) is one of the most important vegetables consumed around world both its good taste rich content vitamins, minerals, lycopene, β-carotene. The objective present study was to assess effect new stimulant products based on protein obtained from animal tissue by-products tomato seedlings. Given increased intake amino acids, it...
Wound healing is a complex process that still needs improving.The keratinocyte differentiation « in vitro » model together with the evaluation of cell cycle sequentiation and collagen synthesis offer correlative panel for background screening main events sustain skin renewal.The experimental design was based on cytotoxicity efficacy evaluations keratinocytes (HaCaT line) fibroblasts (HS27 line), through flow cytometry, microscopy specto-photometric techniques.Our current study shows...
Camelina sativa is well-known for its polyunsaturated fatty acids content. Beside the lipidic profile, seeds contain phenolic compounds with antioxidant, antimicrobial and anticarcinogenic activity. This study aims to assess activity of some camelina extracts, using disc diffusion assay. oil seed extracts in tree types hydroalcoholic solvents (ethanol, i-propanol methanol) were used this study. All these evaluated against six different human pathogens: Bacillus cereus, Salmonella...
