Agave americana extract was analyzed by reverse phase HPLC for characterization. Among phenolic compounds identified, apigenin was observed to be present. The finding showed an inhibitory effect of apigenin towards Human and Aspergillus oryzae S2 α-amylases. Apigenin inhibition towards Human and A.

Cellulose nanofibers and chitin nanocrystals, two main components of agricultural and aquacultural by-products, were obtained from blue agave and yellow squat lobster industrial residues. Cellulose nanofibers were obtained using high pressure homogenization, while chitin nanocrystals were obtained

Plant chitinases are enzymes that have several functions, including providing protection against pathogens. Agave tequilana is an economically important plant that is poorly studied. Here, we identified a chitinase from short reads of the A. tequilana transcriptome (AtChi1). A second chitinase,

Agave plants are popular for their myriad applications in traditional medicine attributed to their reported anti-inflammatory, immunomodulatory, cytotoxic and antifungal activities. The aim of this study was to examine the anti-inflammatory, immunomodulatory and ulceroprotective activity of Agave

BACKGROUND Inulin and other fructans are synthesized and stored in mezcal agave (Agave salmiana). Fructans provide several health benefits and have excellent technological properties, but only few data report their physiological effect when added in the diet. RESULTS Here, we studied the

Among phenolic compounds, Agave americana L. extract contained puerarin (38.4%) and p-coumaric acid (12.29%) (pCa). From the Lineweaver-Burk plots, pCa and puerarin demonstrated a competitive and a non competitive inhibitions towards human α-amylase activity, respectively. PCa exhibited a higher

Agave leaves are considered a by-product of alcoholic beverage production (tequila, mezcal and bacanora) because they are discarded during the production process, despite accounting for approximately 50% of the total plant weight. These by-products constitute a potential source of Agave extracts
