Our studies are based on a cellular screening of UV-A and UV-B irradiated keratinocytes (HaCat cell line), focusing on the apoptosis induction, cell cycle sequentiation, metalloproteinase’s expression, pro-inflammatory cytokines release and IL1α as sensitization molecule, as well as the antioxidant capacity of the extract, and acting on catalase and superoxide-dismutase activity. The investigation techniques are flow cytometry (cellular parameters fluorescent staining and beads-based assay for soluble protein detection), zymography and enzymatic activity tests. The Crataegus monogyna extract, with a rich content of pro-antocians, flavones and polyphenolcarboxylic acids, show a UV-A cellular protection and dose dependent inhibition of inflammatory cytokines and MMP2 and 9 after both UV-A and UV-B irradiation. All these effects are sustained by a cumulative antioxidant capacity at enzymatic and intracellular oxygen radical level.

Considering that respiratory infectious diseases continue to be a major cause of death among preschool children in developing countries, the aim of the present study was to evaluate the effect of Lr1505 on the health of children. A randomized-controlled double-blind clinical trial in 298 healthy children (2-5 years old), attending daycare centers was performed. Yogurt containing Lr1505 was administered to children for 6 months (five times a week). Results were statistically compared with those of children from the same community that received a placebo yogurt (without probiotic). Administration of Lr1505 to young children reduced the incidence of infections: 66% of children in the placebo group presented symptoms of infection while only 34% of cases were detected in the Lr1505 group. Significant differences ( P <0.05) were detected in the incidence of intestinal infections, upper respiratory tract infections and angina when placebo and Lr1505 groups were compared. Children fed Lr1505 experienced fewer fevers and needed fewer antibiotics than those receiving the placebo. The protective effect of Lr1505 was associated with increased levels of mucosal IgA antibodies. Lr1505 is a promising resource for the development of prevention strategies against mucosal infections that could be effective tools for medical application. This new probiotic strain has been included into official Nutritional Programs in Argentina and it is given to more than 200 thousand children. This project has encouraged local milk production, thanks to the constant demand of probiotic yogurt containing L. rhamnosus CRL1505 by provincial governments, while incorporating innovation to small and medium enterprises.","PeriodicalId":90181,"journal":{"name":"International journal of biotechnology for wellness industries","volume":"1 1","pages":"189-198"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2012-09-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"71249879","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}

In this study, the antioxidant and antibacterial properties of fresh and oven-dried herbs of oregano, marjoram, rosemary, sage, basil, thyme, peppermint and spearmint were compared with available commercial herbs. Antioxidant properties of total phenolic content, total flavonoid content, caffeoylquinic acid content, free radical scavenging activity, ferric reducing power and ferrous ion chelating ability were assessed using the Folin-Ciocalteu, aluminium chloride, molybdate, DPPH radical scavenging, potassium ferricyanide and ferrozine assays, respectively. Antibacterial properties were assessed using the disc diffusion assay based on mean diameter of inhibitory zone and minimum inhibitory dose. The two drying treatments were oven drying at 50 o C (OD) and microwave pre-treatment followed by oven drying at 50 o C (MOD). Fresh rosemary and dried oregano had the strongest antioxidant properties. For most herbs, oven drying resulted in loss of  antioxidant values compared to fresh herbs with the exception of oregano. Values of OD and MOD oregano, spearmint, thyme, peppermint and basil were higher than commercial samples, while those of rosemary were lower. Of the six commercial herbs, rosemary had the highest values, followed by oregano, spearmint, thyme, peppermint and basil. Rosemary, sage, peppermint and spearmint inhibited the growth of all three Gram-positive bacteria of Bacillus cereus , Micrococcus luteus and Staphylococcus aureus . Rosemary and sage had stronger antibacterial properties than green and black teas of Camellia sinensis . When used in combination, rosemary and sage can have enhanced antioxidant and antibacterial effects, which are desirable in developing nutraceutical products, and in controlling rancidity and bacterial growth in food.","PeriodicalId":90181,"journal":{"name":"International journal of biotechnology for wellness industries","volume":"1 1","pages":"142-151"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2012-06-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"71250167","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}

Also, with 9.0 g l -1 sodium bicarbonate, biomass production was decreased.

Preparations of konjac glucomannan, xanthan and alginate have been checked with regards their molecular integrity (molar mass distribution) using a newly established method based on the analytical ultracentrifuge. The intrinsic viscosity behaviour for each of the individual polysaccharides were estimated at low ionic strength I (10 -3 M) and found to be (2090±120) ml/g, (4430±340) ml/g and (3460±330) ml/g for konjac glucomannan, xanthan and alginate respectively and at (10 -1 M) (2350±200) ml/g, (3370±310) ml/g and (1210±50) ml/g respectively. The intrinsic viscosity (η) was then determined for a proprietary mixture of the three (known as \"PGX®\") at both ionic strengths and compared with the predicted values for a non-interacting mixture. In I=10 -3 M solvent a significant difference was observed (3090+250) ml/g compared with the predicted value (2350+300) ml/g, although at higher ionic strength the interaction appears to have gone: (η) = (1990+250) ml/g compared with the predicted value of (2180+300) ml/g.

The goal of this study was to evaluate the effect of sugar concentration of a pineapple liquid waste as the carbon source on the capacity of Lactobacillus casei subspecies rhamnosus to produce lactic acid by simultaneous enzymatic hydrolysis and fermentation. Three different pineapple waste concentrations were evaluated (60, 80 and 100% v/v) from a pineapple juice with 11.3% (m/v) of sugars (sucrose, fructose and glucose). L. casei was able to consume all sugars present within the levels tested, and converted all into lactic acid, showing efficient yields of 0.91 g lactic acid/g sugars. Final lactic acid concentration increased significantly (p<0.05) with the increase of pineapple waste percentage. Maximum lactic acid concentration (102g/L) was achieved with 100% pineapple waste medium. The highest total productivity (4.0g/h) and maximum productivity (4.48 g/L*h) were obtained with 60% pineapple waste medium and it decreased significantly (p<0.05) when 100% was used. Fermentation time increased with the increment of sugars, but it increased considerably with the medium composed of 100% of pineapple waste in comparison with the other two mediums. Pineapple waste represents a good alternative as a cheap carbon source for bacteria growth and production of L (+) lactic acid.","PeriodicalId":90181,"journal":{"name":"International journal of biotechnology for wellness industries","volume":"1 1","pages":"91-100"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2012-04-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"71248405","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}
