Nowadays, one of the therapeutic approaches for obesity is use pancreatic lipase inhibitors which reduce digestion and absorption fats. Most research indicates that natural sources have a inhibitory effect, may be utilized to treat obesity. Verbascum pyramidatum potential obesity, it has been demonstrated anti-inflammatory, antidiabetic, regulatory effects on lipid metabolism. With this study, ...

This research revalues broccoli stalk by-product as a novel fermented health food, using its autochthonous microbiota. Broccoli slices were packed into glass jars, brine was added (6% w/v), and two dressings studied: garlic, mustard seeds. No dressing used control. Natural fermentation carried out at 25 °C for 6 days followed by further storage 4 °C. The identification of individual glucosinola...

Tomatoes are consumed worldwide as fresh vegetables because of their high contents essential nutrients and antioxidant-rich phytochemicals. contain minerals, vitamins, proteins, amino acids (Leucine, Threonine, Valine, Histidine, Lysine, Arginine), monounsaturated fatty (Linoleic Linolenic Acids), Carotenoids (Lycopene ?-Carotenoids) Phytosterols (?-Sitosterol, Campesterol Stigmasterol). GCMS a...

Fusarium wilt is one of the most common destructive banana diseases which causes great losses to global production. Berangan banana, known be very susceptible towards this disease greatly affected. Upon infection, oxidative burst involving rapid accumulation reactive oxygen species first responses a plant defense against biotic and abiotic stress. Secondary metabolites play an essential role in...

Borage meal exerted a concentration-dependent antioxidant activity in a meat model system. At 2% (w/w), it inhibited (p 0.05) 2-thiobarbituric acid-reactive substances (TBARS), hexanal and total volatile formation in meat by 26.5, 30.5 and 18.6%, respectively. Antioxidant compounds in the meal were concentrated at optimum extraction conditions (in 52% ethanol at 74 C for 62 min) predicted by re...

Hypericum perforatum is a medicinal plant which has been known in traditional medicine as an antiinflammatory and healing agent. Nowadays the use of Hypericum extracts is concerned mainly with antidepressive applications. In the present work, HPLC – RPC18 column chromatography with photodiode array detection was applied for the determination of the derivatives of cinnamic and benzoic acid (e.g....

Phytosterols and their derivatives have attracted much attention because of their health benefits to humans and are widely used in food, pharmaceuticals, and cosmetics in the past decades. While most of the research has focused on free phytosterols and phytosteryl esters of fatty acids, few researches reported on phytosteryl phenolates, the esters of phytosterols with phenolic acids. Two novel ...

Different factors such as the genotype, environmental conditions, temperature stress, solar radiation and others can influence phytochemical status of plants. The concentration phenolic acids alkylresorciols (ARs) well their chemical composition biological activity have been determined in twelve winter wheat cultivars grown at eight European locations. This was first multi-location field trial ...
