This study focuses on the preventive effects of aqueous extract of Cichorium intybus (CIE) on streptozotocin (STZ) induced β-cell damage. Pancreatic β-cells or islet were treated with STZ in presence and absence of Cichorium intybus and the inhibitory effect of it against STZ toxicity were determined in RINm5F (RIN) rat insulinoma cells. Cell viability, Nitric oxide production and Insulin secre...

Fructans were extracted from Agave salmiana juice, characterized and subjected to hydrolysis process using a commercial inulinase preparation acting freely. To compare the performance of the enzymatic preparation, a batch of experiments were also conducted with chicory inulin (reference). Hydrolysis was performed for 6 h at two temperatures (50, 60 °C) and two substrate concentrations (40, 60 m...
