Differentiating between Monofloral Portuguese Bee Pollens Using Phenolic and Volatile Profiles and Their Impact on Bioactive Properties.

Summary

This study analyzes different types of bee pollen from Portugal. It identifies various compounds and measures their antioxidant and cytotoxic activity. The pollen dominated by sp. has the highest DPPH radical scavenging activity and sp. pollen species have the highest antioxidant activity. Only sp. pollen shows notable anti-carcinogenic potential against MCF-7.

Therapeutic potential of blackberry extract in the preventing memory deficits and neurochemical alterations in the cerebral cortex, hippocampus and cerebellum of a rat model with amnesia.

Summary

This study looked at the effects of blackberry extract on memory and brain chemistry in rats with amnesia caused by scopolamine. The rats were given blackberry extract or a drug called donepezil for 10 days and then subjected to memory tests. The extract prevented memory loss and reduced brain damage caused by scopolamine. The study suggests that blackberry extract could be used in the treatment of neurodegenerative diseases due to its potential to improve memory and reduce damage in the brain.
