Physico-chemical changes in dabai (Canarium odontophyllum Miq.) fruit during modified atmosphere storage
Dabai or Canarium odontophyllum Miq., from the family Burseraceae, is an important indigenous fruit to Borneo Island. However, it is a highly perishable fruit with short shelf life. Postharvest technology such as modified atmosphere packaging (MAP) can be used to maintain highly perishable fresh fruit quality and increase its shelf life. There is not much work has been carried out to study effe...
متن کاملAntiatherosclerotic Effect of Canarium odontophyllum Miq. Fruit Parts in Rabbits Fed High Cholesterol Diet
The effect of C. odontophyllum (CO) fruit parts was investigated in hypercholesterolemic rabbits. Forty-nine rabbits, which were randomly divided into seven groups of seven animals (n = 7), received a diet containing different parts of CO fruit parts for 8 weeks. The groups were as follows: (1) normal diet: NC group and (2) hypercholesterolemic diet: PC, HS (10 mg/kg/day simvastatin), HPO (20 g...
متن کاملVasorelaxant action of aqueous extract of the leaves of Persea americana on isolated thoracic rat aorta.
The present study investigated the vasorelaxant action of the aqueous leaves extract of Persea americana on isolated rat aorta. The results showed that the extract produced significant vasorelaxation and that the effect is dependent on the synthesis or release of endothelium-derived relaxing factors (EDRFs) as well as the release of prostanoid. The extract also reduced vasoconstriction probably...
متن کاملAntioxidant Capacities of Peel, Pulp, and Seed Fractions of Canarium odontophyllum Miq. Fruit
Antioxidant capacities of ethylacetate, butanol, and water fractions of peel, pulp, and seeds of Canarium odontophyllum Miq. (CO) were determined using various in vitro antioxidant models. Ethylacetate fraction of peel (EAFPE) exhibited the highest total phenolic (TPC), total flavonoid content (TFC), and antioxidant activities compared to pulp, seeds, and other solvent fractions. Antioxidant ca...
متن کاملVasorelaxant effects of eugenol on rat thoracic aorta.
Eugenol is a natural pungent substance and the main component of clove oil, with vasorelaxant action. To elucidate some of the possible mechanisms involved in this action isometric tension was measured in aortic rings from male Wistar rats precontracted with phenylephrine (PHE, 10(-7) M) or KCl (75 mM). Responses to increasing concentrations of eugenol (10(-6)-10(-2) M) were obtained in the pre...
