In search of experimental confirmation of the numerous fermented beverages health-promoting aspects cited previously. Analysis of the literature data is carried out in correspondence to the recent concepts of health protection's requirements. It is shown that the fermented food can efficiently act in health prophylaxis and recovery due to their main properties: Detoxification, antioxidation, energizing potencies, analgesic effect, anti-inflammatory, antimicrobial action against pathogens, and promotion of depressed immunity. The development of bioprocess base on the lactic fermentation from medicinal plants, fruits, and vegetables to produce Nutraceutical’s beverages could ameliorate the immune system in order the reduce the effects induced by SARS-CoV-2 coronavirus.","PeriodicalId":260815,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Biotechnology and Biomaterials Engineering","volume":"284 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-05-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"133420775","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

While the problem has attracted adequate attention, current water treatment tools such as commercially available active carbon still cannot satisfy the remediating necessity due to its unfavorable rate of uptake and high regenerating cost. Moreover, water-insoluble pollutant adsorbents typically suffer from poor processability, effectively decreasing their potential for increased point-of-use versatility. Herein, we report a solution processable lipophilic ester-based material that readily undergoes simple coacervation upon ultrasonic solution processing. The experiments focused on the effect of the Isopropyl Myristate dosage and particle size on the removal efficiency for organic compounds. With a lipophilic ester dosage of 160 g L-1 and a particle size less than 1 mm, the reductions of chemical oxygen demand (COD), biologic oxygen demand, and total organic carbon were 37 (± 0.4), 24 (± 0.4), and 30 (± 0.3)%, respectively. Pre-treatment of lipophilic ester with hot water improved the COD removal efficiency by absorption from 37 (± 0.4) to 42 (± 1.6)% when the same dosage (160 g L-1) was applied. Freundlich isotherm and pseudo-second-order kinetic models can explain sorption isotherm and sorption kinetics for COD using untreated lipophilic ester. Intra-particle diffusion model indicates that pore diffusion is not the rate-limiting step for COD removal. Based on the experimental data, lipophilic ester could be used as an alternative low-cost sorption media/filter for removal of organic compounds from real industrial wastewater.","PeriodicalId":260815,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Biotechnology and Biomaterials Engineering","volume":"129 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-12-14","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"124238115","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
