Abstract:
... The use of natural antioxidants is of increasing importance in the human diet, because they are recognised as compounds essential to health which minimize or delay the aging process. Despite apparent simplicity, however, it is very difficult to measure and quantify such properties, for which a robust analytical method is required. Because oxidation usually is caused by the presence of OH· radicals ...

Abstract:
... Quorum sensing controls bacterial virulence through signaling molecules, which plays a vital role in managing foodborne pathogens that cause food spoilage and human infections. Though many synthetic compounds have been used to control infection, antibiotic resistance has become a global issue. Targeting the bacterial quorum sensing using the bioactive compounds could be an alternative strategy to ...
