The objectives of this study were to determine the molecular weight of condensed tannins (CT) extracted from mangosteen (Garcinia mangostana L) peel, its protein binding affinity and effects on fermentation parameters including total gas, methane (CH4) and volatile fatty acids (VFA) production. The average molecular weight (Mw) of the purified CT was 2,081 Da with a protein binding affinity of ...

The application of enzymes in extraction processes within the food industry has not been widely explored. In this paper, an enzyme-assisted water method was employed and optimized to extract antioxidative phenolic compounds from pericarp Garcinia mangostana L. Fractional factorial design (FFD) developed screen out significant factors five parameters, including enzyme concentration, liquid-solid...

For ages, medicinal plants play a significant role in the effective, affordable, and safe healthcare system. Medicinal continue to an important Nigeria's system, which serves more than 70% of country's population. pharmaceutical exploration conservation, it is document use specific region across time. The study's goal was find out were used treat typhoid illness Kaduna state. in-depth interview...

Mangosteen (Garcinia mangostana L.) has become the main agricultural products contributing to largest annual foreign exchange from fruit category. rind contains xanthone compounds as a source of antioxidants, with α-mangostin and γ-mangostin, components which are used traditional modern ingredients treat various diseases. However, mangosteen extract low bioavailability thus resulting in effecti...

The world is endangered by the COVID‐19 pandemic caused SARS‐CoV‐2, people are dying in thousands every day, and without an actual treatment, it seems that bringing this global health problem to a quit impossible. Natural products have been constant use since ancient times proven time be effective. Medicinal plants from Indonesia may lead discovery of novel drugs. Mangosteen or Garcinia mangost...

Biodiversitas 23: 2609-2613. This study aimed to assess the population dynamics of Bacillus thuringiensis and its potency as a bio-agent against litura. The field was conducted in Musi Banyuasin District, South Sumatra, Ind...

Natural products of the caged Garcinia xanthones (CGX) family are characterized by a unique chemical structure, potent bioactivities and promising pharmacological profiles. We have developed a Claisen/Diels-Alder reaction cascade that, in combination with a Pd(0)-catalyzed reverse prenylation, provides rapid and efficient access to the CGX pharmacophore, represented by the structure of cluvenon...
