Abstract:
... Stephania tetrandra (“hang fang ji”) and Aristolochia fangchi (“guang fang ji”) are two different plant species used in Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM). Both are commonly referred to as “fang ji” and S. tetrandra is mistakenly substituted and adulterated with the nephrotoxic A. fangchi as they have several morphological similarities. A. fangchi contains aristolochic acid, a carcinogen that caus ...

Subject:
adulterated products; buffers; centrifugation; chemometrics; dairy protein; gel chromatography; milk; milk fat; nutritive value; pH; principal component analysis; quality control; raw milk; wavelengths; China
Abstract:
... Raw milk adulteration frequently occurs in undeveloped countries. It not only reduces the nutritional value of milk, but it is also harmful to consumers. In this paper, we focused on investigating an efficient method for the quality control of raw milk protein. A gel filtration chromatography (GFC) fingerprint method combined with chemometrics was developed for fingerprint analysis of raw milk. To ...

Tylopilus; models; least squares; near-infrared spectroscopy; adulterated products; chemometrics; mushrooms; information processing; Boletus edulis; Italy; China
Abstract:
... Boletus edulis and allied species (BEAS), known as “porcini mushrooms”, represent almost the totality of wild mushrooms placed on the Italian market, both fresh and dehydrated. Furthermore, considerable amounts of these dried fungi are imported from China. The presence of Tylopilus spp. and other extraneous species (i.e., species edible but not belonging to BEAS) within dried porcini mushrooms – m ...

Abstract:
... Adulteration of meat in processed food is a sensitive issue since certain meat species are prohibited in some religions such as Islam and Judaism. Some meat types are also potential carrier of some deadly diseases such as severe acute respiratory syndrome, anthrax, and hepatitis. Furthermore, unconscious consumption of certain meat might lead to an allergic reaction. Feline meat is not only taboo ...

Abstract:
... Identification of plant species is important for standardizing herbal medicine. Cynanchum wilfordii (Baekshuoh in Korean) and Polygonum multiflorum (Hashuoh in Korean) are important oriental medicinal herbs in Korea, Japan, and China. Cynanchum auriculatum is a faster growing and more productive plant than C. wilfordii; and, it is not recognized as a medicinal plant in the Korean Pharmacopoeia. C. ...

Abstract:
... The major components of honey are sugar and water, but some phenolic compounds may be responsible for honey quality. We investigated the effects of four reversed-phase (RP) and four reversed-phase and anion-exchange (RP-AE) solid-phase extraction (SPE) cartridges as a pre-concentration technique for honey phenolics. Eleven acacia honey samples were collected from different apiaries of China and th ...
