Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractTotal Phenolic, Resveratrol Content, Antioxidant and Antimicrobial Activity in Five Cultivars of Peanut SproutsQing Liu, Shaoqi Li, Yao Zhang et al.Peanut sprout is one of the potential natural sources of bioactive substances. In this study, five different peanut cultivars were conducted to germination, the change in total phenolic compounds, resveratrol content, antioxidant and antimicrobial activity were investigated. The sprouts of five peanut cultivars (Fuhua, Silihong, Dabaisha, Xiaobaisha and Huayu) were extracted using 75% ethanol for 3 h and the crude … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 16, Issue 1 · 12 Feb 2020 · 8,546 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDetermination of 1-Deoxynojirimycin Content and Phytochemical Profiles from Young and Mature Mulberry Leaves of Morus Spp.Yasinta Ratna Esti Wulandari, Vivitri Dewi Prasasty, Adrianus Rio, Cindy GeniolaMulberry leaves have been known to be rich in 1-Deoxynojirimycin (DNJ) which inhibits postprandial hyperglycemia by inhibiting α-glucosidase in the small intestine and thereby reducing the breakdown of starch and other complex sugar into glucose. Mulberry leaf extract also contains many other bioactive compounds and phytochemicals. They are very effective in supporting blood sugar levels and balancing cholesterol and triglycerides. … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 19, Issue 2 · 3 Jun 2019 · 11,074 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractNovel Production of Two New Nonpolyenic Antifungal Macrolide Derivatives by Streptomyces Z26 Isolated from Moroccan Rhizospheric SoilAhmed Nafis, Brahim Oubaha, Najoua Elhidar et al.The aim of our study was to screen Moroccan actinomycete isolates able to produce nonpolyenic antifungal metabolites in order to contribute to limiting the problem of fungal infections emergence in particular mycotic diseases and to discover known antifungal families, especially nonpolyenic drugs. 480 isolates were tested against 5clinically pathogenic Candida species. Several methods have been used to study the polyenic … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 18, Issue 2 · 8 Mar 2018 · 8,459 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAntimicrobial and Antioxidant Activities of Bacterial Extracts from Marine Bacteria Associated with Sponge Stylotella sp.Daning Yoghiapiscessa, Irmanida Batubara, Aris Tri WahyudiSponge-associated bacteria have great potential in developing marine pharmaceutical industry since they are capable of synthesizing numerous bioactive metabolite compounds. This study aimed to isolate, characterize and investigate potential antimicrobial, toxicity and antioxidant of bioactive compounds of bacteria associated with sponge Stylotella sp. A total of 138 bacteria were selected. During screening stage, 45 isolates (32%) produced a wide spectrum … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 12, Issue 1 · 22 Feb 2016 · 9,154 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractRESISTANT STARCH AND BIOACTIVE CONTENTS OF UNRIPE BANANA FLOUR AS INFLUENCED BY HARVESTING PERIODS AND ITS APPLICATIONAnuchita Moongngarm, Wanassanun Tiboonbun, Mai Sanpong et al.Recently, various innovative products from unripe banana flour have been reported as it is high in resistant starch and other important compounds. The harvesting period of the unripe banana fruit is one of the key factors affecting the quality of the unripe banana flour in terms of resistant starch and bioactive compound content. The study aimed to investigate the effect … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 3 · 12 Aug 2014 · 11,378 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractMICROWAVE-ASSISTED EXTRACTION OF PHENOLIC ANTIOXIDANTS FROM SEMIARID PLANTSJorge E. Wong-Paz, Juan C. Contreras-Esquivel, Diana Muñiz-Marquez et al.Microwave-Assisted Extraction (MAE) kinetic in three temperatures was investigated for extraction of antioxidant phenolic compounds from Jatropha dioica, Flourensia cernua, Eucalyptus camaldulensis and Turnera diffusa which are plants of semiarid regions of Mexico. The two-site kinetic model and saturation simple equation were used to describe the experimental data. The fit of the data demonstrated that saturation simple equation was better … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 3 · 22 Mar 2014 · 7,609 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractComparative Extraction of Pectic and Polyphenols from Mexican Lime Pomace and BagasseDaniela Sanchez-Aldana, Cristobal Noe Aguilar, Guadalupe Virginia Nevarez-Moorillon, Juan Carlos Contreras EsquivelMexican lime bagasse and pomace are rich in pectin and they also represent an important source of value-added compounds such as polyphenols. Two different options for the combined recovery of pectin and phenolic compounds from Mexican lime bagasse and pomace, two byproducts of industrial lime processing, were developed. Conventional and microwave-assisted extraction methods were used. All pectic extracts presented a … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 4 · 29 Oct 2013 · 7,804 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAnti-Oxidant and Enzyme-Inhibitory Potential of Marine StreptomycesT. Revathy, M. A. Jayasri, K. SuthindhiranMarine actinomycetes are potential source for the discovery of novel compounds and enzymes. Though extensive research on marine actinomycetes is underway globally, the actinomycetes research from Indian marine ecosystem is unexplored and understudied. Hence, the present research is focussed on the screening of bioactive compounds from marine actinomycetes isolated from Indian coastal region.
