ABSTRACT
This research work seeks to evaluate the impact of selected enzyme complexes on the optimised release of phenolics from leaves of Pongamia pinnata. After preliminary solvent extraction, the P. pinnata leaf extract was subjected to enzymatic treatment, using enzyme cocktails such as kemzyme dry-plus, natuzyme, and zympex-014. It was noticed that zympex-014 had a greater extract yield (28.0%) than kemzyme dry-plus (17.0%) and natuzyme (18.0%). Based on the better outcomes, zympex-014-based extract values were subsequently applied to several RSM parameters. The selected model is suggested to be significant by the F value (12.50) and R2 value (0.9669). The applicability of the ANN model was shown by how closely the projected values from the ANN were to the experimental values. In terms of total phenolic contents (18.61 mg GAE/g), total flavonoid contents (12.56 mg CE/g), and DPPH test (IC50) (6.5 g/mL), antioxidant activities also shown significant findings. SEM analysis also revealed that the cell walls were damaged during enzymatic hydrolysis, as opposed to non-hydrolysed material. Using GC-MS, five potent phenolic compounds were identified in P. pinnata extract. According to the findings of this study, the recovery of phenolic bioactives and subsequent increase in the antioxidant capacity of P. pinnata leaf extract were both positively impacted by the optimisation approaches suggested, including the use of zympex-014.
ABSTRACT
Myocardial infarction refers to severe coronary artery stenosis, which leads to continuous and complete occlusion of coronary artery and myocardial necrosis. Coronary artery stenosis (>50%) or occlusion can be seen in 90% of patients undergoing coronary angiography, but 10% of patients have no obvious stenosis, that is, non obstructive myocardial infarction (MINOCA). The incidence rate of MINOCA was about 6%, showing an upward trend year by year, with an average age of 55 years, of which 40% of women. Its etiology is complex, the onset is urgent, and the clinical manifestations are complex and changeable. The incidence of major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE) is very high, and the mortality rate within one year is as high as 3.5%. There is no unified diagnosis and treatment plan at present. In this paper, the etiology, diagnosis and treatment of MINOCA were reviewed.
ABSTRACT
Bioactive peptides in the marine organisms such as sponges,ascidian,fishes,shellfish,etc. and their bioactivities of antineoplastic, antimicrobial, antihypertension and antioxidation were reviewed in this paper.
