Research ArticleOpen accessTrilobatin Possesses Protective Potentials on H2O2-Induced HepG2 Cells by Suppressing Oxidative Stress: Involvement of Nrf2/Keap1 Signal PathwayYuhan Zhai, Yuqing Zhang, Yaping Li et al.Trilobatin, a natural dihydrochalcone compound, possesses various biological activities. However, few investigations have been carried out on the mechanisms of trilobatin against oxidative stress. To comprehend the effects and mechanism of trilobatin on oxidative stress after hepatic injury, H2O2-induced HepG2 cells were used in this research. The results indicated that trilobatin enhanced the viability and improved the apoptosis morphology of … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 19, Issue 4 · 22 Dec 2023 · 5,089 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessAntioxidant Activity of Trilobatin and Its Inhibitory Effects on Oxidative Damage of Biological MacromoleculesYuhan Zhai, Yuqing Zhang, Yaping Li et al.Excessive levels of free radicals in the body cause oxidative damage to macromolecules by injuring DNA, proteins, and lipids, which leads to structural and functional defects and ultimately results in a number of illnesses. The antioxidation of trilobatin and its inhibitory activity of trilobatin on oxidative damage of biological macromolecules have not been thoroughly investigated. In this research, the effects … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 19, Issue 4 · 28 Oct 2023 · 5,470 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessComparison of Fumigation and Immersion of Essential Oils on Quality and Physiology of Fresh Shiitake Mushrooms (Lentinus edodes)Yanjie Li, Yanxin Wang, Shudong Ding et al.The effects of different essential oils with fumigation or immersion on sensory and physiological quality of fresh shiitake mushrooms were evaluated during the storage. Shiitake mushrooms were treated with essential oils (grapefruit essential oil, rosemary essential oil, cinnamon essential oil) by fumigation and immersion respectively. The surface color, browning degree, sensory evaluation, hardness, soluble protein content, total phenolic content and … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 18, Issue 1 · 10 Feb 2022 · 6,060 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessPreparation of Rosemary Collagen Chitosan Blend Membrane Using Response Surface Methodology (RSM)Ming He, Yuhan Zhai, Yuqing Zhang et al.The present research provided a formula for the optimization of rosemary/collagen/chitosan blend membrane. Rosemary Extract (RE) was used as additive and membrane was prepared using tensile strength, elongation at break and elongation length as the indexes. The results of single factor experiment showed that the addition ratio of collagen to chitosan, additive content, glycerol content and drying temperature all affected … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 17, Issue 4 · 22 Nov 2021 · 6,244 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessCharacterization of Crude Polyphenol Oxidase Activity in Buckwheat SproutsYuedong Song, Yangfang Zhang, Yilin Wang et al.Buckwheat sprouts can not only effectively reduce the trypsin inhibitor in buckwheat grain, but also improve the content of bioactive ingredients such as flavonoids and other effective components. However, Polyphenol Oxidase (PPO) in buckwheat sprouts causes browning of food, which limits the application of buckwheat sprouts in food. In addressing this problem, studying the characteristics of PPO in buckwheat sprouts … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 17, Issue 2 · 25 Jun 2021 · 6,487 accessesView PDF Cite
