Researchers extracted and analyzed the compounds in cascara pulp, a coffee by-product, and found high levels of antioxidants. This suggests that cascara pulp could be useful in preventing photoaging. Further research is needed to fully explore its potential benefits.
Study found that social isolation stress and individual housing cause cognitive issues and psychiatric diseases. Acorus calamus (AC) has potential therapeutic value for neurological disorders. This study examined AC's antidepressant and antioxidative effects on rats subjected to long-term social isolation stress.
The study investigated the antioxidant activity of extracts from the rosemary plant. The extracts were found to contain beneficial compounds that could potentially reduce lipid accumulation in NAFLD.
Ethyl acetate extract of bark (EAFMB) has significant anti-inflammatory effects, comparable to a reference drug. Three compounds in EAFMB showed COX inhibition and protection against denaturation, suggesting they contribute to the extract's anti-inflammatory properties.
Scientists studied the composition and antioxidant activity of a little-known plant. They optimized enzymatic extraction and analyzed the metabolite profiles using chromatography. The plant showed potential for phytomedicine, with significant differences compared to another species.
Scientists studied the phenolic compounds in loquat fruits and leaves from Tuscany, Italy. The leaf extract showed higher antioxidant and anticancer potential than the fruit extract, and both can be used as a source of antioxidants in food or cosmetics/pharmaceuticals.
Different types of propolis have varying chemical compositions due to vegetation and environmental conditions. Green propolis from Brazil has the highest antioxidant capacity and phenolic compound content. Chemical profiles of the propolis extracts suggest potential application in food and pharmaceutical products.
Researchers investigated the antioxidant effect of the ethyl acetate extract of on diabetic rats. The extract reduced oxidative stress and improved kidney function, suggesting it may have renoprotective effects for diabetic patients.
