Background: Honey is a natural product, but it can be adulterated or heat-treated, both of which damage the properties of the original product. This research was focused on the evaluation of quality parameters of some commercial honeys produced in México.  Methods: Fifteen samples of commercial honeys available in Mexican market were collected. Some physicochemical parameters were determined, ...

Background: Pekmez is an important fruit-based food of Turkish culinary culture. The aim of this study is to determine the levels of acrylamide (AA), 5-hydroxymethyl-2-furfural (HMF) and other selected parameters in grape, mulberry and carob Pekmez. Methods: AA and HMF were analyzed by Liquid Chromatography and High Performance Liquid Chromatography, respectively. Also, glucose, fructose, pH, ...

Hydroxymethylfurfural (HMF) is a compound that produced after heat treatment of honey; is, they are not present in the initial raw materials and can potential health hazard; known as chemical processing contaminants. This an indicator parameter quality honey spontaneously. Its concentration increases with time other factors, such improper during processing, storage temperature mode transportati...

Oxidative conversion of 5-hydroxymethylfurfural (HMF) is of biotechnological interest for the production of renewable (lignocellulose-based) platform chemicals, such as 2,5-furandicarboxylic acid (FDCA). To the best of our knowledge, the ability of fungal aryl-alcohol oxidase (AAO) to oxidize HMF is reported here for the first time, resulting in almost complete conversion into 2,5-formylfuranca...

PURPOSE To investigate the characteristics of visual field (VF) progression in medically treated normal-tension glaucoma (NTG) patients (Koreans) with unstable ocular perfusion pressure (OPP). METHODS One hundred one eyes of 101 NTG patients followed up for more than 4 years (mean follow-up, 6.2 years ± 12.1 months) were included. Modified Anderson criteria (MC) and linear regression analysis...

[1] The heliospheric magnetic field (HMF) direction, on average, conforms well to the Parker spiral. However, numerous examples of events where the HMF is oriented in nearradial directions for many hours have been reported on the basis of observations inside 5 AU from spacecraft such as ISEE-3 and Ulysses. The magnetic field data observed by Voyager 2 from launch in 1977 through the end of 1982...

the purpose of this study was to develop a sensitive and fast microdialysis coupled with high-performance liquid chromatographic (hplc) method for determination of 5-hydroxymethyl-2-furaldehyde (5-hmf) in free-moving rats after i.g. administration of the aqueous extract of crud fructus corni and its processed products of jiuzheng pin (jzp). the concentration of 5-hmf in free-moving rats after i...

An HPLC method was developed for the simultaneous separation and identification of furanic compounds as the possible degradation products of sugars and ascorbic acid on heating. 5-(Hydroxymethyl)furfural (5-HMF), furfural, 2-furoic acid, 2,5-dimethyl-4-hydroxy-3(2H)-furanone (DMHF), 2-acetylfuran, and six unknown compounds were separated and detected in fruit juice concentrates with or without ...
