Protein hydrolysates produced from different food sources exhibit therapeutic potential and can be used in the management of chronic diseases. This study was targeted to optimise the conditions for the hydrolysis of stone fish protein to produce antioxidant hydrolysates using central composite design (CCD) by response surface methodology (RSM). The stone fish protein was hydrolysed under the op...

Aim:The present study aimed to assess the in vitro antioxidant and anticancer properties of Drosera peltata J.E.Sm. Methods:Antioxidant capacity of the extracts were tested on hydroxyl, DPPH, super oxide, nitric oxide and ABTS radicals; of ferrous ion chelating ability and by reducing power assay.Ascorbic acid was used as the standard antioxidant for the above all assay methods. Dalton’s Asciti...

In this paper, grafting of acrylic acid monomer on Gum tragacanth was performed. Variable of experiment included concentration of initiators and monomer, time, and temperature. Grafting efficiency was measured in the term of percentage of grafting (%G) and percentage of grafting efficiency (%E). Effectiveness of grafted gum in ferrous ion removal at different condition was assessed. According t...

In this study, three enzyme hydrolysate termed Dur-A, Dur-B, and Dur-C, were produced from Durvillaea antarctica biomass using viscozyme, cellulase, α-amylase, respectively. exhibited fucose-containing sulfated polysaccharide chemical composition determination characterization by FTIR analyses. addition, had high extraction yields low molecular weights. All extracts determined to have antioxida...

Background: The compositions of Ferrous sulphate, Agarose and Xylenol orange dye (FAX) and Ferrous sulphate, Gelatin and Xylenol orange dye (FGX) in solution of distilled water and sulphuric acid are two tissue-equivalent gel dosimeters. Ionizing radiation causes oxidation of Fe2+ ion to Fe3+ ions which diffuse through the gel matrix and blur the image of absorbed dose over a period of hours af...

Purpose: The objectives of this study were to evaluate inhibition activities acetone, chloroform, ethanol and hot water extracts nutmeg (Myristica fragrans Houtt.) leaves against Salmonella enterica, Listeria monocytogenes, Shigella dysenteriae, Staphylococcus aureus, Escherichia coli, Pseudomonas aeruginosa Aspergillus niger and, assess the in vitro antioxidant discover active compound profile...

Solid-state fermentation (SSF) of Chinese jujube with Cordyceps militaris was performed in the present study. The results revealed that contents total phenolic and flavonoid rice medium 50% content increased to 1.59 mg GAE/g d.w. 0.46 RE/g, respectively. changes acid composition showed a similar tendency, three forms individual compounds, namely free phenol, free/conjugated bound phenol extensi...
