This work aimed to provide a biochemical characterisation of Chlorella vulgaris biomass cultivated with daily supplementation produced water. The simultaneous phytoremediation and production biomolecules bioproducts commercial interest were analysed discussed. Cultures grown in laboratory scale photobioreactors for 26 days 1.5 L BG11 medium, 50 mL non-autoclaved water (TPW) or distilled (TDW). Biomass differed among the control (3.86 g L−1), TPW (1.69 TDW (1.82 L−1). TPW-treated culture...
Background: Studies have demonstrated that resveratrol exerts several pharmacological effects. However, the pharmacokinetic parameters are not completely established. Objectives: This study describes plasma pharmacokinetics and tissue distribution of after administration by different routes doses in rats. Methods: A reliable, simple, sensitive HPLC method using UV detection for quantification rat tissues was developed validated. In addition, a analysis non-compartmental population modeling...
Enzymatic preparations in juice processing come different formulations, but their enzymatic activities on the stability of this beverage must be studied. This study evaluated five commercial yield and color extraction concerning chemical composition grape juice, color, phytochemicals quantified HPLC. The activity enzymes was evaluated, a juices over 360 days carried out. Everzym Thermo Endozym Rouge (hemicellulases) increased content flavonoids, especially malvidin‐3‐glucoside. Pectofruit PR...
The aim of this study was to examine the comparative hypocholesterolemic effect soybean 7S fraction in rats fed a high-cholesterol diet. Soybean globulin (β-conglycinin) administered orally once day rats, and effects were measured after 28 days. Wistar divided into four groups: standard diet (STD) (casein alone), hypercholesterolemic (HC) (STD plus 1 g/100 g cholesterol 0.5 cholic acid), HC+7S(1) (HC 200 mg 7S/kg body weight/day), HC+7S(2) 300 weight/day). Food intake, weight gain, animals'...
Abstract The role of seed proteins, especially soyabean 7S globulins, in controlling dyslipidaemia is widely acknowledged. Amino acid sequence homology among the proteins this family could reflect similar biological functions other species. aim present study was to unveil a hypolipidaemic effect globulins from cowpeas (7S-C) and adzuki beans (7S-A), administered orally rats fed hypercholesterolaemic (HC; high cholesterol TAG) diet for 28 d. A total forty-five were divided into five groups...
The hypocholesterolemic effect of isolated soybean proteins and fenofibrate in rats was compared. Forty-five were divided into five groups: standard (STD; casein), high cholesterol (HC; STD plus 1% cholesterol/0.5% cholic acid), HC + β-conglycinin, glycinin fenofibrate. the drug administered by gavage for 28 days. decreased total (TC) triacylglycerol (TG) plasma fed diet, to values very close those on High density lipoprotein (HDL-C) levels increased groups. largest TC reduction liver...
This work aimed to evaluate the performance of different drying methods in development phenolic compounds, methylxanthines, and antioxidant activity cocoa bean presence ochratoxin A (OTA). Antioxidant was determined using DPPH, FRAP, ORAC β-carotene-linoleic acid assays. Phenolic compounds methylxanthines were high-performance liquid chromatography with an ultraviolet detector (HPLC-UV). OTA by ultra-performance fluorescence detection (UPLC-FLR). It found that during drying, there a...
In this study, we evaluated the effects of ultrasound-assisted extraction (UAE) under different time-temperature conditions on content bioactive compounds, antioxidant and antimicrobial activities Syrah grape skin residue. The application UAE showed a positive effect total flavonoids, negative polyphenols. temperature 40 °C 60 without caused an increase 260% 287% polyphenols, respectively. Nineteen individually compounds were quantified. anthocyanin concentration (malvidin-3,5-di-O-glucoside...
In this study, we evaluated the effects of storage time on physicochemical properties, bioactive compound content, and antioxidant capacity jam prepared from grape peel extract to explore its potential as a supplementary food and/or functional ingredient. The ethanolic Syrah var. exhibited high concentrations activity. stability (prepared with 8.9% extract) at 14°C was 0, 15, 30, 45, 60 days. found contain polyphenolic compounds (137.0 ± 3.2 mg gallic acid equivalent/100 g), total flavonoids...
This study was an investigation of the effects ingesting a daily dose isolated glycinin soy protein (11S globulin), in association with rosuvastatin, on control hypercholesterolemia experimental animals. Male Wistar rats were kept individual cages under appropriate controlled conditions temperature, light and humidity. The animals divided into five groups (n = 9): 1) standard (STD): fed casein as source; 2) hypercholesterolemic (HC): STD plus 1% cholesterol 0.5% cholic acid; 3) HC+11S: +...
Abstract Background There is increasing interest in non-pharmacological control of cholesterol and triglyceride levels the plasma diet-drug association represent an important area studies. The objective this study was to observe hypocholesterolemic effect soybean β-conglycinin (7S protein) alone combined with fenofibrate rosuvastatin, two hypolipidemic drugs. Methods protein drugs were administered orally once a day rats effects evaluated after 28 days. Wistar divided into six groups (n =...
The effects of the drying process using conventional oven and freeze-drying on thermogravimetric profile, proximate composition, color parameters, individual bioactive compounds, antioxidant activity in grape residue (skin) were evaluated. Twenty phenolic compounds identified, where a variation concentration was observed for flavonols, stilbenes, acids, flavonoids, procyanidins, particularly anthocyanins (malvidin-3,5-di-O-glucoside 253.2–536.9 mg/kg) due to process. Drying caused decrease...
In this study, in silico approaches are employed to investigate the binding mechanism of peptides derived from cowpea β-vignin and HMG-CoA reductase. With obtained information, we designed synthetic evaluate their vitro enzyme inhibitory activity. vitro, total protein extract <3 kDa fraction, at 5000 µg, support hypothesis (95% 90% inhibition reductase, respectively). Ile-Ala-Phe, Gln-Gly-Phe, Gln-Asp-Phe were predicted bind substrate site HMGCR via HMG-CoAR. silico, it was established that...
A total of 32 Streptococcus macedonicus strains, isolated from Greek Kasseri cheese, were screened for biochemical properties technological importance in milk fermentation processing, such as acid production, proteolytic and lipolytic activity, citrate metabolism, exopolysaccharide antimicrobial activity biogenic amines production. All strains found to be moderate acidifiers milk. Only four could hydrolyse casein, while 11 showed against tributyrin. Using amino derivatives 4-nitroaniline...
