In the literature, the polyphenol oxidase (PPO) enzyme has been purified a many times via Sepharose 4B-l-tyrosine-p-aminobenzoic acid affinity column. In order to study PPO purification efficiency, 2-aminophenol and 4-aminophenol were applied as a spacer arm to CNBr-activated Sepharose 4B. The
Potato is one of the world's leading vegetable crops. Potato viral diseases cause adversely effects on the agricultural sector. Recently there is a growing interest to control plant viruses using spices and herbs (including curcumin). Poor solubility of curcumin in water limited its
The aim of this study was to develop a zein/potato starch (PS) film based on chitosan nanoparticles incorporated with curcumin (CCN). The CCN film was characterized for encapsulation efficiency, particle size, zeta potential, polydispersity index (PDI), relative release, and DPPH radical scavenging
Development of biodegradable food packaging using biomass based materials derived from agricultural wastes has been a trend in recent years. The biopolymer films were prepared using 3% and 5% (w/w) potato peel (PP) powder. Bacterial cellulose (BC) (0, 5, 10 and 15% based on PP powder) was added as a
Starch is an abundant biomaterial that forms a vital energy source for humans. Altering its digestion, e.g. increasing the proportions of slowly digestible starch (SDS) and resistant starch (RS), would revolutionize starch utility in addressing a number of health issues related to glucose
Curcumin, the active principle of turmeric, is known to act as an anti-oxidant, anti-mutagen and anti-carcinogen. This study aimed to find out the thermal and oxidative stability of soybean oil when potatoes marinated with turmeric were deep fried in the oil. Two sets of experiment were carried out.
OBJECTIVE
The emptying of the gall bladder in response to feeding is pivotal for the digestion of fat, but the role of various food ingredients in contracting the gall bladder postprandially is not well understood. We hypothesized that different food ingredients, when consumed, will have a different
There is a pressing need for countermeasures against diabetes, which has increased in incidence, becoming a global issue. Glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1), a molecule secreted in enteroendocrine L cells in the lower small and large intestines, is thought to be one of the most important molecular
