BACKGROUND The common usage of chewing sticks prepared from Neem tree (Azadirachta indica) in India suggests its potential efficacy in periodontal diseases. The objective of this study is to explore the antibacterial effects of Neem leaf extract on the periodontophatic bacteria Porphyromonas gingivalis and Fusobacterium nucleatum, and its antioxidant capacities alone and in combination with bac...

The gonad of jellyfish (RhopilemaesculentumKishinouye), containing high protein content with a rich amino acid composition, is suitable for the preparation of bioactive peptides. Jellyfish gonad was hydrolysed with neutral protease to obtain jellyfish gonad protein hydrolysate (JGPH), which was then purified sequentially by ultrafiltration, gel filtration chromatography, and RP-HPLC. The peptid...

The purpose of this study was to determine, for the first time, antioxidant activities of seven peptides (P1-P7) derived from hydrolysis of oat proteins in a cellular model. In the oxygen radical absorbance capacity (ORAC) assay, it was found that P2 had the highest radical scavenging activity (0.67 ± 0.02 µM Trolox equivalent (TE)/µM peptide) followed by P5, P3, P6, P4, P1, and P7 whose activi...

Cancer is one of the main chronic degenerative diseases worldwide. In recent years, consumption of whole-grain cereals and their derivative food products has been associated with a reduced risk of various types of cancer. The main biomolecules in cereals include proteins, peptides, and amino acids, all of which are present in different quantities within the grain. Some of these peptides possess...

Chickpea is a legume that has exhibited various biological activities. The anti-inflammatory and antioxidant activities of chickpea proteins hydrolysate fractions were evaluated. extensive protein (greater than 50 %) obtained by enzymatic hydrolysis was fractionated 5-10 kDa, 3-5 1-3 ≤1 kDa obtained. activity determined in murine peritoneal macrophages stimulated with lipopolysaccharide (LPS). ...

The objective was to 3 explore the effect of high hydrostatic pressure (HP) on proteolysis by different proteases and the 4 release of bioactive peptides from...

The transformation of yellow nutsedges into nutritional flour and snack food could be important for expanding consumption enriching the variety products. This paper used peeled as raw materials to explore effect roasting on antioxidant capacity, active ingredients, aroma. results showed that DPPH (2,2-Diphenyl−1-picrylhydrazyl) free radical scavenging rate ABTS+ (2,2’-azinobis-(3-ethylbenzothia...

The studies concern the effect of addition acid whey in combination with sodium ascorbate on selected parameters related to proteolysis uncured dry-fermented sausages. Four sausage samples (with different additives: curing mixture (C); sea salt (S); and liquid (SAW); salt, (SAWA)) were taken at day 0, 7, 14 21 ripening assess basic physicochemical properties, thiobarbituric acid-reactive substa...

Nowadays, microalgal research is predominantly centered on an industrial scale. In general, multipotent bioactive peptides are the advantages over focal points utilitarian nourishment as well nutraceuticals. Microalgal now profoundly connected with biological properties rather than nutritive. Numerous techniques employed to purify active from algal protein using enzymatic hydrolysis; it broadly...
