The current research work was undertaken to evaluate the hepatoprotective and nephroprotective potential of Cichorium intybus following subchronic exposure imidacloprid in white leghorn (WLH) chicks. Thirty, 6 8 weeks old chicks 300-350 g weight were randomly equally divided into five groups. Group I served as control fed normal grower ration other medicated containing leaf powder @ 5000 ppm II...

Chicory (Cichorium intybus) accumulates caffeic acid esters with important significance for human health. In this study, we aim at a better understanding of the biochemical pathway of these bioactive compounds. Detailed metabolic analysis reveals that C. intybus predominantly accumulates caftaric and chicoric acids in leaves, whereas isochlorogenic acid (3,5-diCQA) was almost exclusively accumu...

In this study, roots of Turkish origin wild chicory (Cichorium intybus L.) genotypes were investigated for total flavonoid and phenolic contents, radical cation scavenging activity (ABTS), Free (DPPH), radical, mineral content. These characteristics also compared with other coffee varieties. The contents ranged between 0.290-4.350 mg QE/g dry weight (DW) 0.943-13.860 GAE/g DW. DPPH was listed h...
