Introduction: The development of antioxidant cosmetic products based on natural added to nanotechnology is gaining more and prominence. However, some these actives are hydrophobic, which makes their placement in aqueous systems impossible. As a strategy deliver hydrophobic hydrophilic gels, nanoemulgels have been presented.
 Materials Methods: present study aimed prepare an nanoemulgel gua...

The effects of hesperidin and different casings on pH, moisture content, water-holding capacity, total viable count (TVC) sausages stored for 171 days were evaluated by principal component analysis (PCA) discriminant (DA). Sausages stuffed in a modified casing with treatment B (soy lecithin concentration: 1:30, soy oil 2.5%, lactic acid 21 mL/kg NaCl [solid], treated time: 90 min) had significa...

Background & objectives: Citrus lemon and lime juice, which contain high levels of vitamin C and natural antioxidant in the form of polyphenols, have a special place in the food basket of Iranian households. Flavonoids are among the polyphenolic compounds and Eriocitrin, Naringin and Hesperidin are among the most important flavonoids. Investigating the amount and type of polyphenols and flavono...

Polyphenols are a common group of plant based bioactive compounds, that can affect human health because of their antioxidant and antimicrobial properties as well as free-radical scavenging activity. An increasing interest is observed in the interaction between polyphenols and microbiota occurring in food and the human gut. The aim of the work presented here, was to evaluate the effect of some p...

Cyclopia subternata plants are traditionally used for the production of the South African herbal tea, honeybush, and recently as aqueous extracts for the food industry. A C. subternata aqueous extract and mangiferin (a major constituent) are known to have anti-diabetic properties. Variation in phenolic composition and antioxidant capacity is expected due to cultivation largely from seedlings, ...

Citrus flavonoids have a wide range of biological activities and positive health effects on mammalian cells because of their antioxidant properties. However, they also act as prooxidants and thus may interfere with metabolic pathways. The purpose of this work was to evaluate the effects of three citrus flavanones, hesperidin, hesperetin, and naringenin, on several parameters linked to fatty aci...

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE The features of asthma are airway inflammation, reversible airflow obstruction, and an increased sensitivity to bronchoconstricting agents, termed airway hyperresponsiveness (AHR), excess production of Th2 cytokines, and eosinophil accumulation in the lungs. To investigate the antiasthmatic potential of hesperidin as well as the underlying mechanism involved, we studied...

In an earlier study, an electronic tongue system (e-tongue) has been used to differentiate between orange juice made from healthy fruit and from fruit affected by the citrus greening or Huanglongbing (HLB) disease. This study investigated the reaction of an e-tongue system to the main chemicals in orange juice that impact flavor and health benefits and are also impacted by HLB. Orange juice was...

The disruption of myelin causes severe neurological diseases. An understanding of the mechanism of myelination and remyelination is essential for the development of therapeutic strategies for demyelination diseases. Our previous findings indicated that the FcRγ/Fyn cascade is a potential therapeutic target for remyelination caused by the Chinese/Japanese traditional herbal (Kampo) medicine ninj...
