Enzymatic preparation of fructooligosaccharides-rich burdock syrup with enhanced antioxidative properties

Preparation Properties and Antioxidative Potency of Preparations Containing Ascorbic Acid

Recently, the frequency of complementary and alternative medicine (CAM) use has increased exponentially in Europe and the United States. The rise of self-decisions by patients in medical treatment and the spread of the Internet are promoting the use of CAM in Japan. The most popular type of CAM in Japan is dietary supplements. It is assumed that many consumers take over-the-counter (OTC) drugs ...

A Study of the Preparation and Properties of Antioxidative Copper Inks with High Electrical Conductivity

Conductive ink using copper nanoparticles has attracted much attention in the printed electronics industry because of its low cost and high electrical conductivity. However, the problem of easy oxidation under heat and humidity conditions for copper material limits the wide applications. In this study, antioxidative copper inks were prepared by dispersing the nanoparticles in the solution, and ...

Enzymatic-Like Properties of dsDNA and Its Comparison with ssDNA

Antioxidative activity of HDL particle subspecies is impaired in hyperalphalipoproteinemia: relevance of enzymatic and physicochemical properties.

OBJECTIVE Hyperalphalipoproteinemia (HALP) is characterized by elevated plasma levels of high-density lipoprotein (HDL) particles with altered composition, metabolism, and function. The impact of such modification on antioxidative activities of HDL subfractions is indeterminate. METHODS AND RESULTS Gradient fractionation revealed that buoyant HDL2b and 2a and small dense HDL3b and 3c levels w...

Dielectric properties of honey adulterated with sucrose syrup

Sucrose syrup is a common additive in honey adulteration. To provide information for developing a cheap, simple, convenient and rapid sucrose–adulterated honey detector or sucrose content sensor, the permittivities of pure jujube, yellow-locust and milk-vetch flower honey, pure sucrose syrup and honey–sucrose syrup mixtures with sucrose content from 0% (pure honey) to 80% (pure sucrose syrup) w...
