Antimicrobial and antioxidant activity of edible zein films incorporated with lysozyme, albumin proteins and disodium EDTA
(Elsevier, 2007-01)
In this study, partially purified lysozyme was incorporated into zein films in combination with chickpea albumin extract (CPAE), bovine serum albumin (BSA) and disodium EDTA. The zein films showed an inherent free radical ...
Development of antioxidant food packaging materials with controlled release properties
(Elsevier, 2010-02)
In this study, cellulose acetate (CA) films with different morphological features were prepared in order to control the release rates of low molecular weight natural antioxidants, L-ascorbic acid and L-tyrosine. Increasing ...
Effects of different drying methods on phenolic content, antioxidant capacity and general characteristics of selected dark colored Turkish fig cultivars
(International Society for Horticultural Science, 2017-10)
ig fruit is a good source of minerals and crude fibers. The dark-colored fig cultivars rich in anthocyanins are also known with their high polyphenol content. However, although there are many different dark-colored fig ...
Zein and its composites and blends with natural active compounds: Development of antimicrobial films for food packaging
(Elsevier, 2016)
In this chapter the current developments in using biopolymer zein for active edible film-making are discussed with particular emphasis on antimicrobial packaging. Recent studies have showed the possibility of developing ...
Expanding horizons of active packaging: Design of consumer-controlled release systems helps risk management of susceptible individuals
(Elsevier, 2018-06)
The objective of this study was the development of zein based antilisterial films that contain a consumer-controlled and pH-triggered release mechanism for lysozyme (LYS). For this purpose, composite films were formed by ...
Effect of enzyme location on activity and stability of trypsin and urease immobilized on porous membranes by using layer-by-layer self-assembly of polyelectrolyte
(Elsevier, 2010-12)
The layer-by-layer (LbL) self-assembly of polyelectrolyte is one of the simplest ways to immobilize enzyme on membrane. In this paper, the immobilization of trypsin (TRY) and urease (URE) on polyacrylonitrile based membranes ...
Consistency of polyphenol oxidase (PPO) thermostability in ripening apricots (Prunus armeniaca L.): Evidence for the presence of thermostable PPO forming and destabilizing mechanisms in apricots
(American Chemical Society, 2003-04)
Destabilization of thermostable polyphenol oxidase (TS-PPO) during the ripening of peaches has been previously shown (Yemenicioǧlu, A; Cemeroǧlu, B. Tr. J. Agric. For. 1998, 22, 261-265). This work studied the effect of ...
Development of cellulose acetate based antimicrobial food packaging materials for controlled release of lysozyme
(Elsevier, 2009-02)
Antimicrobial packaging materials were obtained by incorporation of lysozyme into cellulose acetate (CA) films. In order to achieve controlled release of lysozyme, the structure of the films was changed from highly asymmetric ...
Antioxidant activity and phenolic content of fresh and dry nuts with or without the seed coat
(Elsevier, 2009-05)
Total antioxidant activities based on ABTS free radical scavenging activity and phenolic content of fresh or dry hazelnuts, walnuts and pistachios assayed with their seed coats changed between 3063 and 11,076 μmol trolox ...
Salt tolerance in Solanum pennellii: Antioxidant response and related QTL
(BioMed Central, 2010-04)
Background: Excessive soil salinity is an important problem for agriculture, however, salt tolerance is a complex trait that is not easily bred into plants. Exposure of cultivated tomato to salt stress has been reported ...
