although several methods have been developed to make gamma-aminobutyric acid (gaba) accumulate in tea, the active ingredients and health benefits vary widely depending on the manufacturing process of tea products. in this study, the levels of bioactive compounds and antioxidant activity in tea leaves given the continuous anaerobic condition were investigated. gaba and other free amino acids suc...

Since the beginning of evaluation plants in terms human health, bioactivity properties have been studied laboratory and thus standards brought to treatment methods with plants. For this purpose, some bioactive component analyzes 18 herbal capsules 2 liquid syrups produced by Naturin Company were performed our current study. In context, total oxidant antioxidant status these plant mixtures evalu...

Triple-layer omnidirectional reflectors (ODRs) consisting of a semiconductor, a quarter-wavelength transparent dielectric layer, and a metal have high reflectivities for all angles of incidence. Internal ODRs (ambient material's refractive index n >> 1.0) are demonstrated that incorporate nanoporous SiO2, a low-refractive-index material (n = 1.23), as well as dense SiO2 (n = 1.46). GaP and Ag s...

Mustard is a plant that eagerly cultivated by farmers, due to its mobility across agroclimatic conditions and high yield. seeds have thus become valuable source of many bioactive ingredients, such as polyunsaturated fatty acids antioxidants (carotenoids, phenolic compounds, tocopherols). The increasingly popularity natural ingredients in food creation other industries has made mustard material ...

cancer incidence is projected to increase in the future and an effectual preventive strategy is required to face this challenge. alteration of dietary habits is potentially an effective approach for reducing cancer risk. assessment of biological effects of a specific food or bioactive component that is linked to cancer and prediction of individual susceptibility as a function of nutrient-nutrie...

Composite bone cements were formulated with bioactive glass (MgO--SiO(2)--3CaO. P(2)O(5)) as the filler and hydrophilic matrix. The matrix was composed of a starch/cellulose acetate blend (SCA) as the solid component and a mixture of methylmethacrylate/acrylic acid (MMA/AA) as the liquid component. The curing parameters, mechanical properties, and bioactive behavior of these composite cements w...

Theanine is an amide exclusively present in tea and some fungi, and is an important bioactive component of tea. The bioactive effects of theanine include antitumour, anti-diabetic, antihypertensive, anti-stress activities, and the ability to improve cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases. It also has protective effect on nerve cells against damage induced by environmental neurotoxins as we...
