In this study, tarragon (Artemisia dracunculus L.) the amount of antioxidants and phenolic substances water-based extracts in various concentrations (25g/L, 50g/L, 100g/L) with aroma components plant was determined. Various food pathogens (Escherichia coli ATCC 25922, Salmonella enterica 13076, Listeria monocytogenes 43251) bacterial strains ((Gram-negative (Vibrio harveyi (KF443058), Vibrio vu...

A comparative study of ultrasound-assisted extraction (UAE) and hydro-distillation was performed for fast extraction of estragole from tarragon (Artemisia dracunculus L.) dried leaves. Several influential parameters of the UAE procedure in the extraction of estragole (type of solvent, extraction cycles, solvent to material ratio, irradiation time and particle size) were investigated an...

The effects of black rice powder on the quality of sausage were investigated. Samples were prepared with 0% (control), 1%, 3%, and 5% black rice powder. With increasing black rice powder content, the moisture and ash content of sausage increased, while protein content was significantly less than that observed for the control (p<0.05). The fat content in samples containing 5% black rice powder w...

Estragole (EG) is biosynthesized in herbs including anise, basil, bay, tarragon, fennel and marjoram, and is thought to be a useful biomass for the food and health industries. Moreover, the metabolites from estragole are useful intermediates in organic synthetic chemistry. However, estragole has been transformed only by chemical methods, and no biocatalysts have been reported. In this paper, we...

objective(s): so far, extensive research has been conducted on the preparation and characterization of nano ceramics based on ca-si by sol- gel method and bioactivity was evaluated, but, a few researches have paid attention to the preparation of materials by mechanical activation (ma). the aim of this study was the preparation of akermanite nano powder by mechanical activation method and bioact...

BACKGROUND The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of smokeless tobacco (Maras powder, Nicotiana rustica Linn) on carotid intima media thickness. MATERIAL/METHODS The study included 32 Maras powder users presenting to our Family Medicine outpatient clinic and 30 non-users of Maras powder as a control group. Carotid intima media thickness was measured by duplex ultrasonography. ...

By using lactose colored with erythrocin, we examined the effect of particle size on mixing degree during the preparation of triturations with a mortar and pestle. We used powders with different distributions of particle sizes, i.e., powder that passed through 32-mesh but was trapped on a 42-mesh sieve (32/42-mesh powder), powder that passed through a 42-mesh sieve but was trapped on a 60-mesh ...
