Effect of blanching on enzyme and antioxidant activities of rambutan (Nephelium lappaceum) peel
Rambutan (Nephelium lappaceum) peel is a potential source of antioxidant. As rambutan is a seasonal fruit, a proper heat treatment prior to storage is necessary. Thus, this study was conducted to determine the effect of water and steam blanchings on browning enzymes and antioxidant activities of rambutan peel extracts. Rambutan from the variety of ‘Anak Sekolah’ were peeled and the peel was bla...
متن کاملPhysicochemical Properties of Defatted Rambutan (Nephelium lappaceum) Seed Flour after Alkaline Treatment.
Rambutan seeds were subjected to SC-CO₂ extraction at 35 MPa, 45 °C to obtain defatted rambutan seed flour. Its physicochemical properties before and after treatment with alkali solution using 0.075 N NaOH were investigated. Alkali-treated flour had a significant increment in bulk density, swelling power, water adsorption capacity, emulsion capacity and stability but a reduction in turbidity, s...
متن کاملThe Effectiveness of Rambutan (Nephelium lappaceum L.) Extract in Stabilization of Sunflower Oil under Accelerated Conditions.
The oxidative properties of sunflower oil supplemented with rambutan extract, (crude extract and its fractionated fraction, SF II) in comparison with synthetic antioxidant were investigated. The supplemented sunflower oils were stored under accelerated conditions for 24 days at 60 °C. For every 6-day interval, the oxidative properties of the supplemented sunflower oil were evaluated based on th...
متن کاملAntioxidant and Pro-oxidant Effects of Aminoguanidine on HepG-2 Hepatocellular Carcinoma Cell Line
Background and purpose: Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is one of the most fatal cancers, so, proposing new anticancer agents is highly valuable. Production of reactive oxygen species (ROS) is increased in majority of cancers. Increase in ROS leads to cell damage and death. Aminoguanidine (AG) (pimagedine) is one of the compounds that can produce ROS at high concentrations. The present study was...
متن کاملEvaluation of anticancer effect of Mentha longifolia and Artemisia persica hydro-alcoholic extracts against human gastric cancer cells (AGS)
Abstract: Introduction: Cancer treatment by medicinal plants has long been of interest to researchers. In the meantime, some plant species contain substances which can inhibit or eliminate cancer cells through apoptosis or necrosis. The family of mint and chicory are among the medicinal plants that have many biological effects. The purpose of this study was to investigate the anticancer effec...
