Liposome, Chlorophyll, Photosynthesis, Fluorescence Lifetime, Lipid Phase Change With chlorophyll a-dipalmitoylphosphatidylcholine-liposomes, the absorption increases at 706 and 450 nm, and decreases at 660 and 420 nm, as the temperature is lowered. As the temperature is increased opposite changes are observed. A lipid phase change occurs at 34°. The pigment to lipid ratio is 1 to 5 in the lipo...

Forty isolates of endophytic bacteria isolated from banana tree roots were assessed as to their capacity to solubilize phosphate in a solid culture medium supplemented with different inorganic and one organic source of phosphorus. The amount of phosphorus (P) in each liquid medium was quantified, and an indirect assessment of acid phosphatase activity was performed. All assays had a fully rando...

Phosphatidylserine, derived from cow brains, has been shown previously to dampen the ACTH and cortisol response to physical stress. Further research investigated the influence of soy lecithin phosphatidylserine supplementation on mood and heart rate when faced with an acute stressor. In this study, we investigated the effects of soy lecithin phosphatidic acid and phosphatidylserine complex (PAS...

The effects of hesperidin and different casings on pH, moisture content, water-holding capacity, total viable count (TVC) sausages stored for 171 days were evaluated by principal component analysis (PCA) discriminant (DA). Sausages stuffed in a modified casing with treatment B (soy lecithin concentration: 1:30, soy oil 2.5%, lactic acid 21 mL/kg NaCl [solid], treated time: 90 min) had significa...

Phospholipids are category of nutrients that essential for growth and health maintenance. They commonly supplied from animal-derived foods. However, plant-derived phospholipids like soy lecithin seems also to be potential alternative because they well received by different population who have concerns about The purpose the current investigation is formulate gelatin-based matrix bearing as a mod...

Two experiments were conducted to study the effect of adding soy-lecithin or xylanase low-energy diet on broilers growth performance, nutrient digestibility, intestinal lipase enzyme activity and economical efficiency. A total number 256 unsexed Cobb500 broiler chicks, a day old, classified into two equal experiments, 128 chicks each (4 treatments × 4 replicates 8chicks). In experiment, divided...

Hypercholesterolemia represents a significant risk for cardiovascular disease (CVD). While diet intervention remains the initial choice for the prevention and treatment of CVD, the nature of the dietary modification remains controversial. For example, reducing calories from total fat, without decreasing saturated fat intake results in insignificant changes in low density lipoprotein cholesterol...

The soybean is a legume that contains no cholesterol and is low in saturated fat. Soybeans have been consumed as a major source of protein by people in Asia for centuries, while their consumption in the West only spans several decades. The soybean is the only vegetable food that contains all eight essential amino acids. It is also a good source of fibre, iron, calcium, zinc, and vitamins. In 20...

Green tea is a herbal plant that can be used to maintain health because of its high antioxidant compounds. Along with the development pharmaceutical technology, drug delivery systems are also increasingly developing, one which transetosomes. The purposes this study determine effect variations in concentration soy lecithin and ethanol on characterization Transetosomes made using heat method form...

The specific purpose of this study was to determine the effect optimal levels soybean lecithin in sperm extenders on motility and abnormalities sheep spermatozoa after undergoing freezing process. This research conducted experimentally a laboratory with completely randomized design (CRD) five treatments three replications. tested were Tris (L) diluent, consisting of: L0 = 0% + 95% diluent 5% gl...
