Microbial Decontamination of Spices Using Cold Plasma
Most of spices are produced using traditional systems. In unsanitary conditions, spices can contain large numbers of pathogenic microbes such as bacteria, molds and yeasts. Some microorganisms are known as human pathogens, which need disinfection mechanisms that minimize their potential harms to active substances in spices. Use of contaminated spices in foods can significantly decrease the shel...
متن کاملDelivery of tea polyphenols to the oral cavity by green tea leaves and black tea extract.
Catechins and theaflavins, polyphenolic compounds derived from tea (Camellia sinensis, fam. Theaceae), have been reported to have a wide range of biological activities including prevention of tooth decay and oral cancer. The present study was undertaken to determine the usefulness of green tea leaves and black tea extract for the delivery of catechins and theaflavins to the oral cavity. After h...
متن کاملSurface Decontamination by Dielectric Barrier Discharge Plasma
Background: Dielectric barrier discharge (DBD), a source of non-thermal plasma, is used in surface decontamination. Objective: To study the effect of DBD plasma treatment, we evaluated the effect of plasma exposure time on inactivation of Bacillus subtilis. Results: Applying the DBD plasma to the culture of B. subtilis caused complete sterilization of the surface without any thermal effects. In...
متن کاملAntioxidant activity of black tea vs. green tea.
Dear Editor: A recent article by Leung et al. (1) reported that drinking black tea has benefits equal to those of drinking green tea in terms of their antioxidant capacities because theaflavins present in black tea possess at least the same antioxidant potency as catechins present in green tea. As reported in related studies (2–4), it is clear that a group of theaflavins (TF) in black tea, spec...
متن کاملBlack Tea Extract Mediated Green Synthesis of Copper Oxide Nanoparticles
Copper oxide nanoparticles were synthesized using black tea extract and copper nitrate as thecopper source by the green method at different calcination temperatures. This method has manyadvantages such as nontoxic, economic viability, ease to scale up, less time consuming andenvironmental friendly approach for the synthesis of CuO nanoparticles without using any organicchemicals. The synthesize...
