The solubility of the scarcely water-soluble molecule tetrahydrocurcumin (THC), a promising curcumin derivative to be used as biopesticide, was enhanced through formation inclusion complexes with different cyclodextrins (CDs). Randomly methylated β-cyclodextrin (MeβCD) gave best results among CDs whose size, substituent or structure changing. Differential scanning calorimetry well 1H- and 2D-Nu...

Melilotus officinalis is known to contain several types of secondary metabolites. In contrast, the carotenoid composition this medicinal plant has not been investigated, although it may also contribute biological activities drug, such as anti-inflammatory effects. Therefore, study focuses on isolation and identification carotenoids from Meliloti herba effect isolated (all-E)-lutein 5,6-epoxide ...

the purpose of this study was to produce oil in water nano-emulsion by ultrasonication, and investigate the influence of inulin and β-cyclodextrin on the prosperities of nano-emulsion and morphology of spray dried microcapsules. the results showed that emulsion droplet size in samples containing β-cyclodextrin (8.28±0.11 nm) was less than inulin samples (97.12±4.2 nm). considering sem photos, β...

Particle morphology and surface properties of metal oxides are topics great importance in the field heterogeneous catalysis. Herein, we have developed a molecular-colloidal coassembly approach combined with an ultrasonic-assisted precipitation method to fabricate [email protected]γ-Al2O3 composites tuneable pore size well-defined octahedral-shape crystal structure. The supramolecular assemblies...
