The dried powdered husk fibre was exhaustively extracted with hexane, ethyl acetate and
Coconut cake is an abundant and good potential edible protein source. However, until now it has not been extensively used in the food industry. To promote its usage, the characterization, nutrition value and antioxidant activity of coconut cake protein fractions (albumin, globulin, prolamine,
In this work, a water-insoluble β-D-glucan (PCSG), isolated from Poria cocos, was carboxymethylated to create a water-soluble derivative named as CP. After free amino groups have been introduced, CP was covalently immobilized onto PU surface. The hydrophilicity and the concentration of carboxyl
OBJECTIVE
To evaluate the effect of Poria cocos (Schw.) Wolf hydroethanolic extract (PHE) against nephrotic syndrome (NS) in rats and to identify the potential active components from PHE.
METHODS
The high content compounds were isolated and purified by using column chromatography followed by
BACKGROUND
Formation and accumulation of advanced glycation end-products (AGE) is recognized as a major pathogenic process in diabetic complications, atherosclerosis and cardiovascular diseases. In addition, reactive oxygen species and free radicals have also been reported to participate in AGE
