Chicken meat (Cornish Cross breed) is usually marketed at refrigerated temperature (1–4 ?C). Quality and safety of chicken the main concern for consumers retailers. exposed to contamination from many sources during slaughtering different manufacturing processes causing undesirable changes lead microbial growth that results in spoilage economic losses. Thus, current study aimed assess effects th...

The tremendous mounting interest in lipase production is pertinent to the biotechnological applications that these enzymes offer. Lipase, belonging to the hydrolyze enzymes, is involved in copious biological functions including: hydrolysis insoluble triacylglycerol to mono and diacylglycerols and glycerol. Submerge fermentation technique was applied for the efficient production of this. Briefly...

BACKGROUND Oxidative stress is involved in the onset of several degenerative disorders, and epidemiological studies indicate that a high intake of dietary antioxidants, as in the case of the Mediterranean basin, is protective. Olive mill waste waters (OMWWs) are a byproduct of olive oil production rich in phenolic antioxidants, such as hydroxytyrosol. We tested the effects of a low dose of an O...

Plant biophenols have been shown to be effective in the modulation of Alzheimer's disease (AD) pathology resulting from free radical-induced oxidative stress and imbalance of the redox chemistry of transition metal ions (e.g., iron and copper). On the basis of earlier reported pharmacological activities, olive biophenols would also be expected to have anti-Alzheimer's activity. In the present s...

Olive leaf extracts possess broad biological activity including antimicrobial properties.Studies have provided evidence suggesting that the extracts increase activity againstdifferent pathogens. 4 Although the extract mixture show antimicrobial activity, theactive compound has not been identified. East Park Research (EPR) developed anextraction process of olive leaves that d...

Introduction: Liver is the most important organ of drugs and xenobiotics metabolism and any damage to the liver is associated with dysfunction of this organ. This study was carried out to find the possible additive effect of the co-administration of Cinnamomum zeylanicum (cinnamon) and Zingiber officinale (ginger) extracts on carbon tetrachloride (CCl4</s...

The thyroid hormones change the rate of basal metabolism, modulating the consumption of oxygen and causing production of reactive oxygen species, which leads to the development of oxidative stress and DNA strand breaks. Olive (Olea europaea L.) leaf contains many potentially bioactive compounds, making it one of the most potent natural antioxidants. The objective of this study was to evaluate t...

Olive oil is the most important commodities produced in the Mediterranean region. Due to its significant economical importance, the usage of pesticides in its production is systematic, by using a wide range of plant protection products with a variety of modes of action. As a consequence, monitoring of their residue levels in these products is a necessity. In the present study a reversed-phase h...
