- Abstract:
- ... Orange peel waste (OPW) can be an effective feedstock for extraction of natural bioactive components such as limonene, a high value-added chemical broadly exploited for food, pharmaceutical, and cosmetic industrial applications. Extraction of limonene from OPW has been conventionally performed via solvent extraction using hexane, a hazardous petrochemical solvent currently restricted under interna ...

- Abstract:
- ... This study proposes a biorefinery approach system to treat two berry extrudates generated by the berry-tasted products industry. The berry extrudates studied were strawberry extrudate (SE1 and SE2) and raspberry extrudate (RE), both of them processed in the same industrial plant. The proposed biorefinery approach consists in the extraction of bioactive compounds after hydrothermal pre-treatment fo ...

- Abstract:
- ... This paper presents a strategy for isolation, identification and evaluation of microalgae strains synthesizing biologically active compounds (BAC) with antimicrobial activity against food-borne and other pathogens. Water samples containing microalgae were initially submitted to the enrichment process, followed by standard procedure for obtaining pure culture. Purified DNA from the microalgae isola ...

- Abstract:
- ... Co-culture is a new strategy to enhance metabolite biosynthesis of plants. In the present study, effects of Murashige and Skoog (MS) medium strengths and sucrose concentrations on adventitious root (AR) biomass, bioactive compound accumulation, and antioxidant activity were investigated to optimize the bioreactor co-culture conditions of the ARs of Echinacea pallida and Echinacea purpurea. A kinet ...

- Abstract:
- ... Adventitious root cultures of medicinal plants are a source of secondary metabolites of pharmaceutical importance. Ophiorrhiza mungos (Rubiaceae) contains a bioactive compound, camptothecin (CPT), which possess anticancer activity. Adventitious roots of O. mungos were induced on aseptic leaf explants and established isolated root cultures. Various culture parameters were studied and showed that 1/ ...
