Moringa oleifera, Lam. (Moringaceae) is grown world-wide in the tropics and sub-tropics of Asia Africa contains abundant various nutrients. This study describes effect different parts (leaf, stem stalk) seasons (summer winter) on chemical compositions antioxidant activity M. oleifera Taiwan. The results showed that winter samples had higher ash (except stalk part), calcium phenolic compounds leaf part) stronger antioxidative than summer samples. methanolic extract strong scavenging DPPH...

The aim of this study was to evaluate the in cellulo inhibition hydrogen-peroxide-induced oxidative stress skin fibroblasts using different low-molecular-weight polysaccharides (LMPS) prepared from agar (LMAG), chitosan (LMCH) and starch (LMST), which contain various functional groups (i.e., sulfate, amine, hydroxyl groups). following parameters were evaluated: cell viability, intracellular oxidant production, lipid peroxidation, DNA damage. Trolox used as a positive control order allow...

Extracts of Stevia rebaudiana are rich in sweet-tasting steviol glycosides (SG), which widely valued as natural sweeteners. This study investigated the effects different light conditions on stevia growth and SG production across stages using a controlled hydroponic system. Four were introduced at low photosynthetic photon flux density 50 μmol·m−2·s−1. was divided into four stages, leaf weight yield analyzed. Red resulted highest fresh weights 23.53 g·plant−1, whereas green lowest 17.15...

Selective isolation of Kunitz trypsin inhibitor (KTI) and lectin from soybean whey solutions by different types chitosan beads was investigated. The were co-crosslinked with tripolyphosphate/genipin in at pH 5, 7 or 9 (CB5, CB7, CB9). maximum adsorption ratios to KTI observed 4.4 5.4, respectively; highly selective separation also demonstrated these pHs. increased temperature, rising between 5 25 °C. CB9 produced the best ratio, followed CB7 then CB5. critical interaction governing...

Graphene oxide (GO) and carbon nanotubes (CNT) were dispersed in chitosan (CS) or sulfonated (sCS) aqueous solution followed by casting films on glassy electrodes (GCE) to investigate the electrocatalytic activities of cyclic voltammetry (CV) develop electrochemical sensors for three food additives including NaNO2, hydroquinone, catechol (CV). The effects water-soluble GO sCS modified detection abilities analytes studied. CV curves revealed that GO/CNT/CS/GCE exhibited higher activity...

Spray-dried chitosan/NaCl/maltodextrin microparticles have the potential to be used enhance saltiness; however, its notable hygroscopicity results in handling and storage problems, thus limiting application. In present study, we attempted introduce maltodextrin, microcrystalline cellulose (MCC), waxy starch (WS) as excipients into spray drying formulation of reduce cohesiveness caking behavior improve yield simultaneously by ameliorating moisture absorption tendency. The prepared showed a...
