The objective of present work was to formulate and evaluate Fluconazole (FLZ) microsponges using quasi emulsion solvent diffusion technique and microsponge gel by using carbopol. Microsponges containing FLZ were obtained successfully with different proportions of ethyl cellulose polymer (EC). The formulations were studied for particle size and physical characterization. The physical characteriz...

The cartilage matrix protein is a major non-collagenous protein in bovine cartilage. It was purified from a 5 M-guanidinium chloride extract of bovine tracheal cartilage by sequential CsCl-density-gradient centrifugation, gel chromatography in guanidinium chloride and differential precipitation. The molecular weight of the intact protein is 148 000, determined by sedimentation-equilibrium centr...

In this research the effect of conventional and ohmic pasteurization and storage time at different temperatures on some bioactive components of Aloe vera gel juice was investigated. Aloe vera gel juice was pasteurized conventionally and ohmically at 90 ºC for 1 min. The effect of pasteurization on vitamin C, total phenolic content  and juice color was evaluated. The samples pasteurized conv...

Aloe vera is an economic crop due to the presence of a gel-like substance inside leaves, which contains polysaccharides, vitamins, proteins, fats, and amino acids. There ongoing need for this plant its products diverse food pharmaceutical industries. To meet good agricultural practices, we studied effect manure application (0%, 10%, 20% v/v soil) foliar with distilled water, salicylic acid (SA,...

BACKGROUND Inadequate protein intake (PI), containing a sub-optimal source of essential amino acids (EAAs), and reduced appetite are contributing factors to age-related sarcopenia. The satiating effects of dietary protein per se may negatively affect energy intake (EI), thus there is a need to explore alternative strategies to facilitate PI without compromising appetite and subsequent EI. MET...

Abstract Sol–gel formulations were applied to replace silicone as matrix material for phosphors in pc-LEDs. The content of organic groups was minimized order reduce yellowing during the operation elements. It possible evenly embed YAG:Ce particles sol–gel binders. Further processing on LED chips resulted operational light sources; and their performance compared standard silicone-based Additiona...

Abstract Pectin from two different plant sources: apple and sugar beet was studied. Apple pectinwas modified by chemical treatments such as: acid, alkali and ammonia, so as to obtain an ester levelequal to or less than 50 %, which is described as low methoxyl (LM) pectin. LM pectin form gelswith significant characteristic. In this study, de-esterification of apple pectin with acid treatmentresu...

Due to the relatively poor cell-material interaction of alginate hydrogel, alginate-gelatin crosslinked (ADA-GEL) hydrogel was synthesized through covalent crosslinking of alginate di-aldehyde (ADA) with gelatin that supported cell attachment, spreading and proliferation. This study highlights the evaluation of the physico-chemical properties of synthesized ADA-GEL hydrogels of different compos...
