CONTEXT Sea buckthorn (Hippophae rhamnoides L.) as a traditional Chinese medicinal plant has various uses in Xinjiang. OBJECTIVE A reversed-phase rapid-resolution liquid-chromatography method with diode array detector was developed for simultaneous determination of protocatechuic acid, rutin, quercetin, kaempferol, and isorhamnetin in the pulp and seed of sea buckthorn, a widely used traditio...

An in vivo experiment was conducted to determine the effect of sea-buckthorn pulp oil feeding on the fatty acid composition of liver and adipose tissue of Wistar rats and the liver accumulation of retinol, its esters and α-tocopherol. For a period of 28 days, rats were given a modified casein diet (AIN-93) in which sea-buckthorn pulp oil, soybean oil and pork lard were used as sources of fat. C...

Fast-growing European buckthorn (Rhamnus cathartica) shrubs are aggressively invading woodlands in eastern and midwestern North America. Buckthorn casts dense shade, alters soil conditions, and may be allelopathic. We used greenhouse and field experiments to investigate aboveand belowground effects of Rhamnus on four herbaceous species native to southern Wisconsin. In the greenhouse, we assesse...

Abstract Hungarian fruit vinegars were characterised in terms of physicochemical attributes (total polyphenol content, antioxidant characteristics/FRAP, CUPRAC, ABTS/, ascorbic acid pH, total soluble solids), sensory profiles, and antimicrobial properties. Both compositional profiles showed distinct patterns depending on the type vinegar (Tokaj wine, balsamic or apple) additional used. Balsamic...

China is rich in sea buckthorn (Hippophae rhamnoides L.)resources and a large amount of fruit used to extract oil andjuice every year. However, Sea Buckthorn Leaves (SBL), which are full offlavonoids, discarded as waste. To make use resources turn waste into valuables, theoptimal purification process flavonoids from SBL was studied theantioxidant activities Crude Flavonoids (CFSBL) Purified (PF...

The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of sea buckthorn procyanidins (SBPC) on healing of acetic acid-induced lesions in the rat stomach and its possible mechanism. The sea buckthorn procyanidins (SBPC) were extracted with 60% alcohol/H2O from sea buckthorn bark and purified by macropore adsorption resin column, with a purity of >96%. The chemical character of SBPC was analyzed by...

Puncture force and energy were measured at different loading velocities and probe diameters for two cultivars of sea buckthorn berries of various sizes at several ambient temperatures. In addition to the puncture properties, the firmness-temperature coefficient, the compression coefficient (Kc), shear coefficient (Ks), and the apparent modulus of elasticity were determined. The tests showed tha...
