Biotechnology and Applied Biochemistry, EarlyView.ABSTRACT This study examined the effect of biological fluids (saliva, blood plasma, and urine) on the antioxidant capacity of an aqueous extract derived from Arbutus unedo leaves. The extract displayed a concentration‐dependent reducing activity in the ferric reducing power assay (IC50 = 292 ± 7.54 µg/mL) and phosphomolybdenum assays (IC50 = 461.67 ± 4.

Optimal model‐based design of experiments for parameter precision: Supercritical extraction case
The Canadian Journal of Chemical Engineering, EarlyView.Abstract This study investigates the process of chamomile oil extraction from flowers. A parameter‐distributed model consisting of a set of partial differential equations is used to describe the governing mass transfer phenomena in a cylindrical packed bed with solid chamomile particles under supercritical conditions using carbon dioxide as a solvent ...

Opponency of astringent and fat sensations [PDF]
Current Biology, 2012 In most cultures, people ingest a variety of astringent foods and beverages during meals, but the reasons for this practice are unclear. Many popular beliefs and heuristics, such as high tannin wines should be balanced with fatty foods, for example 'red wine with red meat', suggest that astringents such as pickles, sorbets, wines, and teas 'cleanse ...

Diversity of Fruit Quality in Astringent and Non−Astringent Persimmon Fruit Germplasm
Horticulturae, 2022 Persimmon (Diospyros kaki Thunb.) is an economically important tree with a long history of cultivation in China. So far, a total of approximately 1000 varieties have been found in China. To systematically evaluate the diversity of persimmon fruit quality, 22 quality measures of appearance, intrinsic, and sensory quality were evaluated using 61 typical ...
