The study was aimed to evaluate the carminative and antacid properties of Cucumis sativus fruit pulp aqueous extract under simulated conditions. Fresh fruit pulp of Cucumis sativus was homogenized and dried under shade and thus mass obtained was powdered, weighed and subjected for the evaluation of carminative and antacid profile of the drug. Carminative & antacid properties of Cucumis sativa w...

Ageing is the phase of gradual decline of body efficiency and metabolic activities after reaching a maturity stage. Free radicals cause oxidative alterations in collagen, elastin material and changes in membrane characteristics and induce polymerization reactions. Use of topical antioxidants can overcome some of these effects and retard actinic ageing. Herbal products are popular due to their m...

In the valorisation of fruit and vegetable by-products by high pressure homogenization (HPH) into texturizing ingredients, source by-product is an important determining factor. This study aims to demonstrate potential citrus residues after acidic pectin extraction (AR) investigate differences between species (lemon, orange, grapefruit) parts (peel pulp) as residues. Based on results, favourable...

Six multiparous, ruminally cannulated Holstein cows (46 DIM, 584 kg of BW) and 6 primiparous Holstein cows (35 DIM, 506 kg of BW) were used in two 6 x 6 Latin squares with 21-d periods to examine the effects of level of non-fiber carbohydrate, source of fibrous carbohydrate, and Aspergillus oryzae fermentation extract on intake, digestion, and milk production. Treatments were 42 and 36% non-fib...
