Antioxidant activity and chemical composition of oleoresin from leaves and flowers of Brunfelsia uniflora

In this study, the temperature and pressure of supercritical CO2 extraction were evaluated to obtain oleoresin of Brunfelsia uniflora leaves and flowers. The oleoresin compounds were identified by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry. The antioxidant activity was evaluated by three different methods. The highest oleoresin yields were 3.32% at 40°C and 200 bar fo.. Read More»

Parsley [Petroselinum crispum (Mill.) Fuss] is regarded as an aromatic, culinary, and medicinal plant and is used in the cosmetic, food, and pharmaceutical industries. However, few studies with conflicting results have been conducted on the antimicrobial activity of parsley essential oil. In addition, there have been no reports of essential oil obtained from parsley aerial parts, except seeds, .. Read More»

Iron translocation in Pleurotus ostreatus basidiocarps: production, bioavailability, and antioxidant activity

    M.E. Yokota1, P.S. Frison1, R.C. Marcante1, L.F. Jorge1, J.S. Valle1, D.C. Dragunski2, N.B. Colauto1 and G.A. Linde10

Translocation of minerals from substrate to mushrooms can change the medicinal characteristics, commercial value, and biological efficiency of mushroom. In the present study, we demonstrated that addition of iron to the substrate reduces the yield of Pleurotus ostreatus mushroom. The biological efficiency of the mushroom varied from 36.53% on the unsupplemented substrate to 2.08% for the substr.. Read More»
