The world is facing an explosive increase in the incidence of diabetes mellitus and cost-effective complementary therapies are needed. The effects of Eugenia jambolana, a household remedy for diabetes, were studied. Streptozotocin diabetic female albino Wistar rats weighing 150-200 g (N = 6) were fed E. jambolana seed powder (250, 500 or 1000 mg/kg) for 15 days. Diabetic rats fed 500 and 1000 m...

Endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress is an intriguing target with significant clinical importance in chemotherapy. Interference with ER functions can lead to the accumulation of unfolded proteins, as detected by transmembrane sensors that instigate the unfolded protein response (UPR). Therefore, controlling induced UPR via ER stress with natural compounds could be a novel therapeutic strategy for ...

Abstract Tannic acid–acetic acid is proposed as novel and green chemicals for cobalt lithium recycling from spent lithium-ion batteries through a leaching process. The synergism of both acids was documented batch continuous studies. promotes dissolution by reducing insoluble Co 3+ into soluble 2+ , while acetic critical to improve the stabilize metals in pregnant leach solution. Based on studie...

background: tannase can be obtained from the various sources for example tannin rich plants; however microbial sources are preferred for industrial production. in microbial sources, the aspergillus and penicillium genus and lactic acid bacteria mostly produce tannase. however, it has been identified that this enzyme is produced by many fungi and bacteria, but researches are continuing to find n...

in order to study the effects of artichoke leaf powder on the quality parameters of thigh and breast meat and the fatty acids profile of breast meat, 240 day-old japanese quails were used. the brids were assigned to 4 treatments including basal diet (control), basal diet supplemented with levels of 15 and 30 g/kg artichoke powder and 300 mg/kg vitamin e with 4 replicates for each treatment in a...

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES Tannins are toxic polyphenols that either bind and precipitate or condense proteins. The high tannin content of some plants is the preliminary limitation of using them as a ruminant feed. So, the aim of this study was the isolation and characterization of tannic acid degrading bacterial strains from goat feces before and after feeding on Pistachio-Soft Hulls as tannin ...

The present study aimed to investigate the phenol content and antioxidant activity of a non-conventional Curcuma sp. namely, Curcuma caesia in comparison with another species, Curcuma amada. The total phenol contents of the methanolic rhizome extracts of C. amada and C. caesia were 37.64 and 44.33 mg Tannic acid equivalents (TAE)/g dry material, respectively. The reducing power, and superoxide,...

The gelatin/gum Arabic microcapsules encapsulating peppermint oil were prepared by complex coacervation using tannic acid as hardening agent. The effects of various parameters, including concentration of wall material, core material, tannic acid and tween80 were investigated on particle size and encapsulation efficiency. For statistical evaluation of the parameters, Taguchi method has been used...

The efficiency of treating citric acid effluent by green algae Chlorella was investigated. With the highest growth rate, Chlorella vulgaris C9-JN2010 that could efficiently remove nutrients in the citric acid effluent was selected for scale-up batch experiments under the optimal conditions, where its maximum biomass was 1.04 g l(-1) and removal efficiencies of nutrients (nitrogen, phosphorus, t...
