Ultra-high pressure homogenisation (UHPH) is a recently developed technology and is still under study to evaluate its effect on different aspects of its application to food products. The aim of this research work was to evaluate the effect of UHPH treatments on quality characteristics of apple juice such as antioxidant capacity, polyphenol composition, vitamin C and provitamin A contents, in co...

this study is investigate to ecological characters, ethnopharmacology, total phenols (tp), flavonoids (tf), anthocyanins (ta) contentand antioxidant capacity in leaves and fruit of vaccinium arctostaphylos l. from two natural habitats from gilan provinve, which has been used as a heart tonic ,anti diabeteand anti tumor. ecological requirements were obtained in many field observation, ethno phar...

Methods Male wistar rats were randomly divided into three groups. Group 1 (n=5) received no supplementation and served as the control while group 2 (n=6) and 3 (n=6) received 2ml and 4ml red palm oil (RPO), respectively. Plasma total polyphenols, plasma antioxidant capacity [i. e. oxygen radical absorbance capacity (ORAC)], ferric reducing antioxidant power (FRAP) as well as levels of antioxida...

this study examined if pre-germination altered the water content and water activity, contents of phytate, total phenolic, (±)-catechin, quercetin and total antioxidant capacity of almond  (prunus dulcis)kernel. raw almond kernels were submerged for 15 hours in water, 0.02 mol dm-3 phosphate buffer solution (ph 5.0) and 0.02 mol dm-3 phosphate buffer solution (ph 7.0) at 25 and 40ºc, respectivel...

objective(s) nonenzymatic glycosylation (glycation) occurs in many macromolecules in aging and diabetes due to exposure of biomolecules to high level of glucose. glycation can changes function, activities and structure of many biomolecules. considering this important role of transferrin (trf) in iron transport and antioxidant activity in plasma this study was carried out to investigate the effe...

This study was designed to analyse the antioxidant capacity of lactic acid bacteria (LAB) in order to provide characteristic parameters and theoretical basis for its further utilization as a natural antioxidant. Further experiment was carried out to study its protection mechanism through oxidative stress Caco-2 cell model in vitro. For this purpose, antioxidative activity of cells and different...
