O conhecimento da composição química dos alimentos é fundamental para se avaliarem a disponibilidade de nutrientes e o seu consumo por populações. Neste trabalho, pequi (Caryocar brasiliense, Camb.) foi caracterizado pela centesimal presença compostos bioativos na polpa amêndoa. Os dados do perfil lipídico mostram alto teor lípides tanto quanto amêndoa, destacando-se nos mesmos ácidos graxos insaturados, predominando ácido oléico como principal componente entre os graxos. Foi observada...
Phenolic compounds combine antioxidant and hypocholesterolemic activities and, consequently, are expected to prevent or minimize cardiometabolic risk.To evaluate the effect of an aqueous extract (AQ) non-esterified phenolic fraction (NEPF) from rosemary on oxidative stress in diet-induced hypercholesterolemia, 48 male 4-week old Wistar rats were divided into 6 groups: 1 chow diet group (C) 5 hypercholesterolemic groups, with receiving water (HC), 2 AQ at concentrations 7 140 mg/kg body...
This study aimed to characterize pomegranate seed oil and evaluate its quality stability parameters against those of linseed oil. The profile fatty acids phytosterols the content tocopherols were analyzed by gas chromatography high performance liquid chromatography, respectively. both oils was assessed as recommended American Oil Chemists' Society (AOCS) evaluated using 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH), β-carotene bleaching (coupled oxidation β-carotene/linoleic acid) Rancimat® assays....
O presente trabalho teve como proposta avaliar a capacidade antioxidante do bagaço e extrato bruto concentrado (EBC) pedúnculo de caju, tendo em vista o seu aproveitamento. potencial dos extratos aquoso (EAq) alcoólico (EAlc) das frações ácidos fenólicos livres (AFL) esterificadas (solúvel AFS insolúvel AFI) desses subprodutos caju clone CCP-76 foi avaliado sistema beta-caroteno/ácido linoléico, pelo teste varredura radical livre [2,2 difenil-1-pricril-hidrazil (DPPH•)] Rancimat. Além mais,...
Antioxidant activity and hepatoprotective properties of the aqueous extract tetrahydrofuran-extracted phenolic fractions Halimeda opuntia (Linnaeus) Lamouroux were investigated in rats with chemically induced liver injury. Total polyphenols determined by using Folin-Ciocalteau reagent. Liver damage was CCl(4) assessed a histological technique. Reverse transcription/polymerase chain reaction (RT/PCR) analysis showed increased superoxide dismutase (SOD) catalase (CAT) gene expression...
Na busca pela identificação de novas fontes antioxidantes naturais e esclarecer lacunas acerca das reais propriedades benéficas atribuídas ao Noni (Morinda citrifolia Linn), este trabalho teve como objetivo realizar a caracterização química avaliar atividade antioxidante da polpa, casca sementes do noni. Foram determinadas composição centesimal (umidade, cinzas, proteínas, carboidratos lipídios); os compostos bioativos (fenólicos totais, carotenoides totais vitamina C) in vitro em extratos...
Polyphenolics (flavonoid and phenolic) rich plants are the effective source for treatment of acute chronic degenerative diseases including inflammatory bowel disease. This study was aimed to examine effects polyphenolics leaf acetone extract P. subpeltata against indomethacin induced ulcerative colitis in rats. Two consecutive days administration produced inflammation GIT tissues Further, plant 200 400 mg/kg were continued until 11th day. Then hematological, enzymatic antioxidants, MPO...
Background High-intensity functional training (HIFT) has become more popular, and the number of practitioners increased; however, it remains unclear whether perturbations in immune parameters occur, even after one single bout. Our aim was to examine acute leucocyte, muscle damage, stress marker responses following a ‘Cindy’ workout session, compare results between novice experienced participants. Material methods Twenty-three HIFT (age 31.0 ± 1.0 years) completed workout. They were...
Diabetes mellitus (DM) is a highly prevalent public health problem characterized by hyperglycemia that causes complications due to the generation of reactive oxygen species and oxidative damage. Studies have shown essential oils containing citral, such as lemongrass, various biological activities, including bactericidal, antiviral, antifungal, antioxidant, hypoglycemic effects. Therefore, this study aims obtain microemulsified formulation oil Cymbopogon flexuosus (EOCF) evaluate its...
Rosmarinus officinalis L. phenolic compounds have attracted considerable attention because of their antioxidant and antimicrobial properties, including its ability to treat inflammatory disorders. In this work, we investigated the in vivo vitro effects R. aqueous extract on neutrophil trafficking from blood into an inflamed tissue, cell‐derived secretion chemical mediators, oxidative stress. Anti‐inflammatory activity was using carrageenan‐induced inflammation subcutaneous tissue male Wistar...
A geleia é o produto obtido pela cocção de frutas inteiras ou em pedaços, polpa suco (inteiras, pedaços suco) adicionadas açúcar e água, concentrando até consistência gelatinos, sendo que parte seu pode ser substituído por frutooligossacarídeo, conferindo a mesmas propriedades funcionais. Sendo assim, objetivou-se elaborar, avaliar os compostos bioativos verificar estabilidade físico-química microbiológica da mista umbu mangaba adicionada frutooligossacarídeo (FOS), ao longo 90 dias...
