BACKGROUND The theoretical, but especially the practical values of identifying the biochemical compounds from the Rosa canina L. fruits are of present interest, this aspect being illustrated by the numerous researches. It was reported that the Rosa canina L. fruit, with its high ascorbic acid, phenolics and flavonoids contents, have antioxidant, antimutagenic and anticarcinogenic effects.This s...

ABSTRACT: Acidophilus milk after preparation, with the defined characteristics of pH, titratable acidity and viable counts of Lb. acidophilus, was kept at the refrigerator (5 °C) and changes of above mentioned parameters were evaluated during 21 days at 7-day intervals. The obtained results showed that the titratable acidity of product significantly (p≤0.05) increased over storage period, demon...

background and objectives: dairy companies always try to increase the quantity and quality of milk production. according to the positive impact of different plants on milk production of cattle, this study was carried out to standardize a galactogogue herbal mixture based on its total phenol and flavonol contents and antioxidant activity.  methods: a mixture of galega officinalis l. and nigella ...

Organic tomato cultivation is growing all over the world due to its healthy functional properties and environmental concerns. Recently, some new varieties with increased properties, particularly high lycopene, have been developed. However, few were assessed under organic farming systems. The objective of this study was evaluate physico-chemical main bioactive compound contents, as well lipophil...

Apples (Malus domestica Borkh.) have been identified as one of the main dietary sources of antioxidants, mainly phenolic compounds. These compounds vary in their composition and concentration, among cultivars and fruit tissues. In this research, the total phenolic content (Folin-Ciocalteau assay), antioxidant capacity (Ferric Reducing Antioxidant Power, FRAP assay) and mineral composition in th...

The objective of the present work was to evaluate physicochemical and sensory quality juices from different grape cultivars resulting two extraction methods. Juices eight (‘Bordô’, ‘SCS 421 Paulina’, ‘BRS Carmem’, ‘Concord’, Cora’, ‘Isabel’, ‘Isabel Precoce’ Violeta’) were prepared using systems: an integral suquifier; adapted heat exchanger. Physicochemical determinations, such as soluble soli...

Nephrotic patients show various abnormalities in protein kinetics. Plasma albumin levels and the total plasma albumin pool are reduced. Nephrotic syndrome is a consequence of an imbalance between oxidant and anti-oxidant activity. Oxidative damage has been proposed as one of the possible mechanism involved in the Nephrotic syndrome. Therefore, this study was carried out to investigate oxidant a...

The northeastern Anatolia region of Turkey is one the richest plant biodiversity areas in Turkey. This study describes some important tree and fruit characteristics 20 seed-propagated summer apple genotypes from using morphological biochemical markers. were evaluated morphologically for growth habit, ripening date, weight, firmness, shape, color, taste, juiciness aroma. measured organic acids, ...
