Obesity has been associated with a marked risk of metabolic diseases and requires therapeutic strategies. Changes in redox status with increased oxidative stress in adipose tissue have been linked with obesity-related disorders. Thus, the biological effect of antioxidants such as polyphenols is of high interest. We aimed to measure antioxidant capacities of 28 polyphenols representative of main...

Kumis kucing (Orthosiphon stamineus) is a medicinal plant that can treat various diseases. has been known to contain bioactive compounds, namely polyphenol, alkaloid, and terpenoid which have antioxidant, antibacterial, antiviral, anti-inflammatory, anti-allergic anti-cancer activities. This study aims determine the phytochemical content, antioxidant activity, antibacterial activity of cat's wh...

Polyphenolic compounds are a group of secondary metabolites in plants; these molecules widely distributed fruits, vegetables, and herbs can be found the vacuoles plant cells. The current trend is their extraction to study applications several areas, such as food, cosmetic, pharmacology industry. This review article presents critical analysis polyphenol using solid-state fermentation. parameters...

the electrochemistry of banana tissues on a carbon paste electrode modified with multi-walled carbon nanotubes (mwcnts) is presented. cyclic voltammetry is applied to investigate the direct electrochemistry of banana tissues i.e. a source of polyphenol oxidase (ppo). a redox couple with an anodic and counterpart cathodic peak is obtained. the influence of various parameters such as ph, scan rat...

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...

the chemical compound dl-?-amino-n-butyric acid (baba) has been introduced as a promoter of induction of resistance in plants against plant pathogens. in this study, promotion of induction of some such defense compounds as peroxidase and polyphenol oxidase enzymes through dl-?-amino-n-butyric acid application against root knot nematode (meloidogyne javanica) was investigated in cucumber. result...

The aim was the assessment of the polyphenol estimated intake and dietary sources among older adults from Mallorca Island. The study was carried out (2013-2014) in 211 participants dwelling women (n = 112) and men (n = 99). Polyphenol intake was calculated from two non-consecutive 24-h recall diets using the Polyphenol Explorer. The mean daily intake of polyphenol was 332.7 mg/d (SD: 237.9; med...
