VALORIZATION OF EGYPTIAN FOOD BYPRODUCTS IN THE DEVELOPMENT OF BIOLOGICALLY ACTIVE NUTRACEUTICALS

This study was aimed to maximize the benefits of the use of by-products (oil cake) of olive fruits and black seeds after extraction of their fixed oils, rather than their use as animals feed or landfilling or composting. The cake of both seeds was assessed by HPLC for their main bioactive marker compounds (thymoquinone for black seed and oleuropein for olive fruit), to choose the best method for e...

BIOLOGICAL ACTIVITIES OF EXTRACTS AND SEASONAL VARIATION IN ESSENTIAL OIL COMPOSITION FROM MYRCIARIA GLAZIOVIANA (MYRTACEAE)

Extracts from leaves, stems and flower buds of Myrciaria glazioviana were analyzed for their antioxidant and anticholinesterase activity. The methanolic extracts showed the best results in reducing power (623.52 - 806.15 mg AA/g of extract), DPPH radical scavenging (IC50 = 9.77 - 14.06µg/mL) and lipid peroxidation inhibition activity (21.30 - 66.80 %). These data were correlated to the total phen...

IDENTIFICATION OF ENDEMIC CURCUMA ALBIFLORA THW. FROM CURCUMA SPECIES GROWN IN SRI LANKA BY DNA BARCODING METHOD

Curcuma is an important genus in traditional medicine. Five plants are reported in Sri Lanka; C. albiflora, C. aromatica, C. longa, C. zedoaria, and C. oligantha. Since the phylogenetic analysis of gene sequences and combining with complete genomic sequences helps to identify the genetic basis of plants, the current study was conducted. Standard CTAB method with little modifications was used for t...
