Effects of 1% or 0.5% chitosan (CHI), 10% or 5% aqueous extract of ginger, onion and garlic (GOG) and their composite solutions (1% CHI+10% GOG, 0.5% CHI+5% GOG) on quality and shelf life of stewed-pork were evaluated. Microbiological (total bacterial count), chemical (pH, total volatile basic nitrogen (TVB-N), peroxide value (POV), 2-thiobarbituric acid (TBA)) and sensory characteristics were ...

This work is to study the baicalin and its three analogs, baicalin, wogonoside, and wogonin, on the protective effect of neuron from oxygen-glucose deprivation (OGD) and toll-like receptor 2 (TLR2) expression in OGD damage. The results showed that baicalin and its three analogs did protect neurons from OGD damage and downregulated protein level of TLR2. D-Glucopyranosiduronic acid on site 7 in ...

Abstract Nutrient metabolism governs the effector functions like activation, expansion, and subset differentiation of CD4 +T-cells, orchestrators adaptive immunity. The levels reactive oxygen species (ROS), metabolic byproducts cellular are regulated by antioxidation pathway, which is composed Keap1 Nrf2 proteins. We observed that, expression temporally post-activation in +T-cells (high on day ...

Several species of Magnoliaceae and Annonaceae are used in Traditional Chinese Medicine. (-)-Anonaine, isolated from several species of Magnoliaceae and Annonaceae, presents antiplasmodial, antibacterial, antifungal, antioxidation, anticancer, antidepression, and vasorelaxant activity. This article provides an overview of the pharmacological functions of (-)-anonaine.

Fermented foods are known worldwide for their functional health properties. In order to promote the relative product development of edible grass, Lactobacillus plantarum (Lp) and rhamnosus (Lr) were used ferment grass in this study. Effects fermentation using Lp Lr monoculture binary mixture on physicochemical properties, contents compounds antioxidant activity at different times investigated b...
