Development of a Multifunction Set Yogurt Using Rubus suavissimus S. Lee (Chinese Sweet Tea) Extract

Isolation of Stigmasterol and β-Sitosterol from the dichloromethane extract of Rubus suavissimus

Purification of the dichloromethane (CH2Cl2) fraction of the aqueous extract of Rubus suavissimus resulted in the isolation of two sterols namely stigmasterol and β-sitosterol. The structures of the isolated compounds were characterized on the basis of extensive spectral data (1D and 2D NMR; and MS) and in comparison with their literature data.

Identification of Plants That Inhibit Lipid Droplet Formation in Liver Cells: Rubus suavissimus Leaf Extract Protects Mice from High-Fat Diet-Induced Fatty Liver by Directly Affecting Liver Cells

Fatty liver disease is a condition in which abnormally large numbers of lipid droplets accumulate in liver cells. Fatty liver disease induces inflammation under conditions of oxidative stress and may result in cancer. To identify plants that protect against fatty liver disease, we examined the inhibitory effects of plant extracts on lipid droplet formation in mouse hepatoma cells. A screen of 9...

Analysis of rubusoside and related compounds in tenryocha extract sweetener.

The main and minor constituents of tenryocha extract product, a natural sweetener, were investigated as a part of an ongoing study to evaluate its quality and safety as a food additive. Four constituents, namely rubusoside, steviolmonoside, panicloside IV, and ent-16 alpha, 17-dihydroxykauran-19-oic acid, were isolated. The concentration of rubusoside, the main sweet constituent, was 8.65% in t...

Development of Microstructure in Set-Style Nonfat Yogurt - A Review

INTEGRABILITY OF AN INTERVAL-VALUED MULTIFUNCTION WITH RESPECT TO AN INTERVAL-VALUED SET MULTIFUNCTION

Intervals are related to the representation of uncertainty. In this sense, we introduce an integral of Gould type for an interval-valued multifunction relative to an interval-valued set multifunction, with respect to Guo and Zhang order relation. Classicaland specific properties of this new type of integral are established and several examples and applications from multicriteria decision making...
