Biopolymers are usually used in encapsulation techniques to protect natural products from degradation. The essential oil of Hedychium coronarium presents a floral scent, which justifies its use perfumes, addition, antimicrobial activity may contribute stability as protectant. Thus, this work aims investigate the extraction by steam distillation and enhance physicochemical through polycaprolacto...

To understand the adaptive mechanisms, and the strategy and direction of evolution of exploiting plants for living in oasis-desert transitional areas where there was a water gradient, mechanisms of C4 photosynthesis and antioxidative protection were studied in leaves and assimilating shoots of C3 desert shrub Hedysarum scoparium under water gradient accompanied with high irradiance and high tem...
