pomegranate tree possesses a vast ethnomedical history and represents a phytochemical reservoir of heuristic medicinal value. in the present study, total phenolics, antioxidant, and antibacterial activities of pomegranate peel were determined by folin–ciocalteu, 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl (dpph) and disk-diffusion methods, respectively, and compared among the accessions. methanolic extract g...

Cichoric acid is the main phenolic compound in the root and rhizome of the medicinal part, Echinacea purpurea that is known for possessing immune enhancing characteristics. In this study, we analysis the the synthesis and storage sites of phenolic compound in E. purpurea. We used fluorescent microscopy, transmission electron microscopy, cytochemical and immunocytochemical localization to observ...

Phenolic compounds, which are emitted in significant amounts from biomass burning, can undergo fast reactions in atmospheric aqueous phases to form secondary organic aerosol (aqSOA). In this study, we investigate the reactions of phenol (compound with formula C6H5OH)), guaiacol (2-methoxyphenol), and syringol (2,6-dimethoxyphenol) with two major aqueous-phase oxidants – the triplet excited stat...

The steady state kinetic parameters Km and kcat for the oxidation of phenolic substrates by lignin peroxidase correlated with the presteady state kinetic parameters Kd and k for the reaction of the enzyme intermediate compound II with the substrates, indicating that the latter is the rate-limiting step in the catalytic cycle. ln Km and ln Kd values for phenolic substrates correlated with redox ...

Mango (Mangifera indica L.) is one of the most important tropical fruits with inimitable taste, unique flavor, fragrance, and therapeutic traits. It national fruit Pakistan commonly called king fruits, however, it very challenging to protect keeping quality fruit. To enhance shelf life overcome microbial count, edible biodegradable (aloe-pectin) coatings were applied on minimally processed (osm...

Sumoylation, a post-translational protein modification by small ubiquitin-like modifier (SUMO), has been implicated in many stress responses. Here we analyzed the potential role of sumoylation in osmo-response in yeast. We find that osmotic stress induces rapid accumulation of sumoylated species in normal yeast cells. Interestingly, disruption of MAP kinase Hog1 leads to a much higher level of ...

in this research, tested factors were margarine types (contractive effects between types of oils in base of margarine such as palm super olein – partially hydrogenated canola oil – 50:50 mixture of palm super olein and partially hydrogenated canola oil and liquid canola) and different moisture (16-8-4%) as the first factor and heating time is the second factor. every margarines spend 3 times he...

The process called biohydrogenation occurs mainly in ruminant animals and during it, unsaturated fatty acids, and particularly poly-unsaturated ones (linoleic and linolenic) coverts to a saturated form of stearic acid. For many years, the beneficial effects of biohydrogenation intermediate fatty acids like cis-9 trans-11 linoleic acid, the main natural isomer of conjugated linoleic acids (CLA),...

background: olive oil wastewater  contains chemical contents and organic materials that are resistant to biodegradation.  the existence of phenolic inhibitor compounds, toxicity to microorganisms in wastewater treatment units, unpleasant odor, high biochemical oxygen demand (bod) and chemical oxygen demand (cod), high suspended solids, and compounds resistant to biodegradation in such wastewate...
