lycium chinense/carbohydrate

Cortex Lycii (root back of Lycium chinense) has is a famous traditional Chinese medicine which displays several pharmacological activities including antioxidant and antidiabetic properties. We investigated the effect of the ethyl acetate fraction (QCL) of Cortex Lycii on the enzymes involved in the

OBJECTIVE To develop a rapid approach of refractive index detection with high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) for the determination of rhamnose, fructose, glucose, surose and maltose in Lycium barbarum L. METHODS The sample was extracted with water and the analyte was separated by Zorbax

OBJECTIVE To isolate and purify a glycoconjugate (LbGp2) from the fruit of Lycium barbarum L. and study its immunoactivity and antioxidative activity. METHODS By means of gel permeation chromatography, LbGp2 was purified. Based on HPLC, CE, GC, SEC and component analysis and so on, its

The yield and quality of goji (Lycium barbarum L.) fruit are heavily dependent on fertilizer, especially the availability of nitrogen, phosphorus, and potassium (N, P, and K, respectively). In this study, we performed a metabolomic analysis of the response of goji berry to nitrogen fertilizer

The elemental/centesimal composition of dried fruits and capsules containing Goji berries (Lycium barbarum L.) was evaluated by ICP OES after two digestion procedures. Furthermore, phenolic acid compounds and flavonoids were quantified by HPLC-UV-DAD. Precision, accuracy, LOD and LOQ were evaluated.

Pollen development is disturbed in the early tetrad stage of the YX-1 male sterile mutant of wolfberry (Lycium barbarum L.). The present study aimed to identify differentially expressed anther proteins and to reveal their possible roles in pollen development and male sterility. To address this

Goji (Lycium barbarum L.) leaves and fruits have been described as a valuable source of bioactive compounds with a great potential for the development of health-promoting formulations. The present study aimed to evaluate the potential of a sustainable process for the recovery of phenolic

A novel water-soluble glycoconjugate, designated as Lycium ruthenicum glycoconjugate polysaccharide 1 (LRGP1), was isolated from the fruits of Lycium ruthenicum Murr. The crude polysaccharide was obtained by hot water extraction and purified by ion-exchange and gelfiltration chromatography. Its

Water-soluble polysaccharides from 51 batches of fruits of L. barbarum (wolfberry) in China were investigated and compared using saccharide mapping, partial acid hydrolysis, single and composite enzymatic digestion, followed by polysaccharide analysis by using carbohydrate gel electrophoresis (PACE)

In addition to the other arabinogalactan-proteins (AGPs) (Cp-1-C and -D) already reported, two kinds of AGP (Cp-2-B and Hp-2-C) were obtained from the fruit of Lycium chinense Mill. The ratio of arabinose to galactose was approximately 1:1 in both samples, and the carbohydrate was linked

A glycoconjugate with pronounced immunoactivity, designated as LbGp2, was isolated from the fruit of Lycium barbarum L. and purified to homogeneity by gel-filtration. Its carbohydrate content is up to 90.71% composed of Ara, Gal and amino acids. The molecular weight is 68.2 kDa as determined by size

In this work, a membrane-based process for the purification and concentration of antioxidant compounds from aqueous Goji (Lycium barbarum L.) berry extracts was investigated. The aqueous extract was previously clarified with hollow fiber ultrafiltration (UF) membranes in order to remove

Growth stimulating effects of LYCH leaf hydrolysates on Pediococcus acidilactici IMT101 cells were observed when MRS broth was supplemented with 20% (v/v) H1+H2, the mixture of hydrolysates prepared by a traditional tea-making process. Cells grown on MRS containing H1+H2 showed a shortened lag phase

This study aimed at assessing the climatic factors influencing the wolfberry fruit morphology, and the composition of its nutritious metabolites. The cultivar Ningqi1, widely grown in Northwest China was collected from three typical ecological growing counties with contrasting climatic conditions:

Grape marc distillates are traditional alcoholic beverages, produced mostly in the Mediterranean countries. The present study proposes the enrichment of a Greek traditional grape marc distillate (tsikoudia) with selected herbs to enhance its natural antioxidants and functional properties. Total
