conclusions although quince seeds dried mucilage by lyophilization had less yield amounts yet in view of purity and physicochemical and mechanical properties, it was significantly better than mucilage prepared by the oven method (p < 0.05). results the yield value of mucilage from the warm method was about three folds greater than the amount from the cold method. the phytochemical, physicochemi...

This critical review examines the association between laryngopharyngeal (LP) sensory deficits (as determined by laryngopharyngeal sensory testing (LPST)) and risk of aspiration. Study designs include: prospective exploratory research. Overall, the literature provides evidence that LP sensory deficits and pharyngeal motor deficits are closely related and are associated with an increased risk of ...

This study has developed an innovative method for the production of secondary metabolites starting from Cydonia oblonga Mill (quince) pulp callus culture. The qualitative and quantitative content phenolic triterpenic acids quince extract were elucidated by GC–MS, GC, HPLC-DAD-ESI-MSn. was rich 5-O-caffeoylquinic acid (5-CQA), 5-p-coumaroylquinic (5-p-CoQA) maslinic corosolic acid. Quince extrac...

Cydonia oblonga Miller leaves phenolic compounds were analyzed by reversed-phase HPLC/DAD and HPLC/UV. Qualitative and quantitative analysis of phenolics were carried out in a total of 36 samples of quince leaves from three different geographical origins of Northern (Bragança and Carrazeda de Ansiães) and Central Portugal (Covilhã) and three collection months (June, August, and October of 2006)...

conclusions these results indicate the lipid-lowering effects of quince leaf similar to atorvastatin and it can probably serve as a new potential natural product for atherosclerosis treatment. results oral administration of cholesterol for 8 weeks resulted in a significant increase (p < 0.05) in plasma markers. treatment with the extract at dose of 50 mg/kg and 0.5 mg/kg of atorvastatin not onl...

fruity teas are popular due to variety in sensory properties as well as their nutritional and therapeutical characteristics. recently, the worldwide researches related to fruity teas have been considerably developed. in this work, effects of fruit type (apple, quince and pear) and brewing time (10 or 20 min) on some nutritional properties (mg, fe and ca contents, sugars and protein percent) as ...
