In the past decade, the remarkable potential of ionic-liquid-based aqueous biphasic systems (IL-based ABSs) to extract and purify a large range of valued-added biocompounds has been demonstrated. However, the translation of lab-scale experiments to an industrial scale has been precluded by a poor understanding of the molecular-level mechanisms ruling the separation or partition of target compou...

Coriander leaves and seeds have been highly appreciated since ancient times, not only due to their pleasant flavors but also due to their inhibitory activity on food degradation and their beneficial properties for health, both ascribed to their strong antioxidant activity. Recently, it has been shown that coriander leaf extracts can mediate the synthesis of metallic nanoparticles through oxidat...

Abstract. Manullang JR, Nugroho RA, Rohmah M, Rudianto, Qorysuchi A. 2021. Plant-extract-mediated biosynthesis of silver nanoparticles using Eleutherine americana bulb extract and its characterization. Nusantara Bioscience 13: 247-254. The plant-based has gained increasing momentum due to being lower in cost eco-friendly. This study aimed biosynthesize from the ethanolic (Aubl.) Merr. ex K.Heyn...

The objective of this study was to determine the effects on quality of incorporating raspberry and cranberry pomaces into American-style muffins prepared under various baking conditions. The different baking conditions did not affect the texture or microstructure of the control muffins. The enhanced samples baked at 140 °C for 30 min were characterized by a harder texture than the control muffi...

Corn steep water (CSW) is a secondary stream obtained from corn wet-milling industry that constitutes source of cost-competitive biocompounds. Among them, biosurfactants are one the most interesting due to important industrial applications and several advantages over commonly used chemical surfactants, such as lower toxicity, higher biodegradability better environmental compatibility (De et al....

BACKGROUND Methanol extract of Bauhinia purpurea L. (family Fabaceae) (MEBP) possesses high antioxidant and anti-inflammatory activities and recently reported to exert hepatoprotection against paracetamol (PCM)-induced liver injury in rats. In an attempt to identify the hepatoprotective bioactive compounds in MEBP, the extract was prepared in different partitions and subjected to the PCM-induce...

This aim of this study was to assess the hydrolysis reaction of the biomass of Chlorella pyrenoidosaandSpirulinasp. LEB 18,using commercial proteases that act in different pH ranges, to obtain protein hydrolysates with promising application in food or food supplement, improving functional and nutritional food properties. Threecentral composite study designs were carried out for each microalga (...
