13. Utilization of the Corncob Agro-Industrial Residue as a Potential Adsorbent in the Biosorption of Bisphenol-A
The presence of plastic waste in water bodies has led to a growing concern due to the impact on human health. Among the most important plastic additive molecules is bisphenol-A (BPA). On the other hand, micro-pollutant removal processes that make use of agro-industrial waste have aroused the interest of researchers. This is because the accumulation of lignoc

15. Antidiabetic activity screening and nmr profile of vegetable and spices commonly consumed in Indonesia
Abstract Apart from their nutritional value, vegetables and spices were empirically known to have functional properties such as antioxidant and antidiabetic activity. However, scientific evidence of these health effects is limited. In our effort to find potent raw material for antidiabetic functional food development, α-glucosidase inhibition and antioxidan

16. Inhibitory effects of L-3-phenyllacitc acid on the activity of mushnroom pholyphenol oxidase
Abstract Polyphenol oxidase is the popular enzyme involved in fruit-vegetable browning and melanin synthesis. In the present paper, L-3-phenyllactic acid, a natural bacteriostatic substance, was investigated as an inhibitor of polyphenol oxidase. The results were demonstrated that the residual enzyme activity of polyphenol oxidase decreased gradually with th

20. Assessment of the Physicochemical Quality Indicators and Microbiological Effects of Brazilian Ozonized Vegetable Oils
The study of quality indicators in the process of obtaining ozonized vegetable oils is useful for monitoring the ozonation reaction. The Brazilian oils “dendê”, soy, corn, rice and sunflower were studied, all of them were ozonated applying different doses of ozone. Ozonized oils were evaluated by determining the physicochemical indexes of peroxide, acid
