In this study, we compared the chemical, physical, and functional properties of insoluble dietary fiber (IDF) soluble (SDF) that were extracted from Rubus chingii Hu. fruits using four methods. The results showed a wide variation in structural among IDFs SDFs by different Compared with other DFs, water extraction SDF (W-SDF) acid (AC-SDF) exhibited more complete structure, higher thermal stability, larger apparent viscosity, which turn enhanced their properties. Notably, oil holding capacity...
The mushroom Inonotus obliquus has been widely used as a folk medicine in Russia, Poland and most of the Baltic countries. In this study, water-soluble alkali-soluble crude polysaccharides (IOW IOA) were isolated from I. obliquus, carbohydrate-rich fractions IOW-1 IOA-1 obtained respectively after deproteination depigmentation. Their contents, such neutral carbohydrate, uronic acid protein, measured. antioxidant properties against chemicals-induced reactive species (ROS) including...
Antibiotic overuse is one of the major drivers in generation antibiotic resistant "super bugs" that can potentially cause serious effects on health. In this study, we reported polycationic polysaccharide, chitosan could improve efficacy a given (gentamicin) to combat bacterial biofilms, universal lifestyle microbes world. Short- or long-term treatment with mixture and gentamicin resulted dispersal Listeria monocytogenes (L. monocytogenes) biofilms. combination, moderate molecular mass (~13...
Two natural homogalacturonan (HG) pectins (MW ca. 20 kDa) were isolated from green tea based on their immunomodulatory activity. The crude polysaccharides (TPS1 and TPS2) obtained leaves by hot water extraction followed 40% 70% ethanol precipitation, respectively. homogenous soluble (TPS1-2a TPS1-2b) TPS1 after purification with gel permeation, which gave a higher phagocytic effect than TPS2. A combination of composition, methylation configuration analyses, as well NMR (nuclear magnetic...
Polysaccharide is one of main components in Polygonatum sibiricum (PS), which an herbal medicine widely used East Asia. Polysaccharides from has been shown to exhibit multiple biological activities, such as anti-diabetes, anti-inflammation, antioxidant, immunity modulation, and anticancer. Since hematopoietic system determinant factors cancer control, we here explored the effect polysaccharide-rich extract (PREPS) on hematopoiesis mice bearing triple negative breast (TNBC). We found that 4T1...
Ficus pumila Linn. fruits has a long history of use as functional food in East Asia. The present study developed consecutive process for the production an arabinogalactan (FPW) from fruit hulls Linn.. FPW was identified type II with 1,3-β-D-Galp backbone O-6 branching to 1,6-linked Gal side chains or terminal-β-D-Galp, and molecular weight 156 kDa. proved be capable promoting NO production, phagocytic activity, secretion cytokines including TNF-α, IL-1β IL-6 without inducing substantial...
