Bioactive aerogels based on native and phosphorylated potato (Solanum tuberosum L.) starches incorporated with star fruit extract (Averrhoa carambola L.).

International Journal of Biological Macromolecules
The aim of this study was to develop a star fruit extract (SFE) and incorporate it into aerogels based on native and phosphorylated potato starches. The phosphorylation of starch enhances its properties by incorporating phosphate groups that increase the

Enzymatic carotenoid cleavage in star fruit (Averrhoa carambola)

Phytochemistry, 2003
This paper presents the first description of an enzyme fraction exhibiting carotenoid cleavage activity isolated from fruit skin of Averrhoa carambola. Partial purification of the enzyme could be achieved by acetone precipitation, ultrafiltration (300 kDa, 50 kDa), isoelectric focusing (pH 3-10) and sodium dodecyl sulfate polyacrylamide gel ...

Acute Oxalate Nephropathy After Ingestion of Star Fruit

American Journal of Kidney Diseases, 2001
Acute oxalate nephropathy associated with ingestion of star fruit (carambola) has not been reported before. We report the first two cases. These patients developed nausea, vomiting, abdominal pain, and backache within hours of ingesting large quantities of sour carambola juice; then acute renal failure followed.

Acute oxalate nephropathy induced by star fruit in rats

American Journal of Kidney Diseases, 2001
In this study, we intend to establish a connection between star fruit and acute oxalate nephropathy and also investigate predisposing factors for its development. Male Sprague-Dawley rats of 180 to 200 g were assigned to four groups; namely, control, experimental, fasting, and water-deprivation groups.

TRANSIENT INHIBITION OF CYP3A IN RATS BY STAR FRUIT JUICE

Drug Metabolism and Disposition, 2006
Star fruit juice is a potent in vitro inhibitor of CYP3A; however, few reports are available on the inhibition of CYP3A activities by star fruit juice in vivo. Therefore, in this study, we investigated the CYP3A-mediated star fruit-drug interaction in vivo. The effect of star fruit juice on carbamazepine pharmacokinetics was examined in rats.
