Self-crosslinking of Tannic acid (TA) was accomplished to obtain poly(tannic acid) (p(TA)) particles in single step, surfactant free media using sodium periodate (NaIO4) as an oxidizing agent. Almost monodisperse p(TA) with 981 ± 76 nm sizes and −22 4 mV zeta potential value ellipsoidal shape obtained. Only slight degradation 6.8 0.2% observed at pH 7.4 PBS up 15 days because the irreversible c...

Background:Gossypol is a yellow toxic pigment from the cottonseed that can cause acute or chronic toxicity in humans and animals by affecting the testicular tissues. Nowadays cottonseed is used as food supplement for ruminants specially the sheep. In this study, two different stem cell lines of testicular tissue including GC1-spg (mouse testis) and SFTF-PI43 (sheep testis) cells were used to ev...

The present study aimed to investigate the essential oil composition of Liparis nervosa (Thunb.) Lindl., grown in China, and determine its antioxidant inhibitory effects on acetylcholinesterase. was obtained by hydrodistillation, chemical compounds were analyzed GC-MS GC-FID. We used 2,2′-azino-bis(3-ethylbenzothiazoline-6-sulfonic acid) (ABTS), 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH), ferric redu...

Two lesser known indigenous vegetables: netlespurge (Jatropha tanjorensis) and black nightshade (Solanum nigrium) were each processed into flour samples incorporated wheat in coating peanut. These veggie peanut burgers analysed for their antioxidant properties such as DPPH, FRAP Metal Chelating ability assay linoleic acid inhibition. Veggie burger with vegetable had values between 44.62 to 68.3...

Flavonoid derived components have been studied for their therapeutic properties. Apigenin has shown remarkable anti-oxidant and anti-inflammatory features; however having a reliable source of apigenin is necessary. In this study the amount of apigenin in flowers, roots, leaf and stems of three varieties of Cosmos bipinnatus: Dazzler, Xanthos and Sensation pinkie and also in transgenic root cult...
