Important Flavonoids and Their Role as a Therapeutic Agent

Molecules, Journal Year: 2020, Volume and Issue: 25(22), P. 5243 - 5243

Published: Nov. 11, 2020

Flavonoids are phytochemical compounds present in many plants, fruits, vegetables, and leaves, with potential applications medicinal chemistry. possess a number of benefits, including anticancer, antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, antiviral properties. They also have neuroprotective cardio-protective effects. These biological activities depend upon the type flavonoid, its (possible) mode action, bioavailability. cost-effective components significant activities, their effectiveness has been proved for variety diseases. The most recent work is focused on isolation, synthesis analogs, effects human health using techniques animal models. Thousands flavonoids successfully isolated, this increases steadily. We therefore made an effort to summarize isolated useful order gain better understanding health.

Agronomy, Journal Year: 2022, Volume and Issue: 12(4), P. 876 - 876

Published: April 3, 2022

Date palm cultivation is highly relevant, especially in the arid and semi-arid regions of world, mainly due to fact that it considered an eco-efficient crop (based on its few growth requirements economic sustainable) produces a nutritious fruit (date fruit). Recently, implantation has rapidly spread other areas world as viable option fight against consequences climate change, but also several health benefits associated with date (pulp seeds) which make them potential source functional food ingredients. This review provides detailed recent information nutrition, nutraceuticals bioactive properties (reinforced vitro vivo evidences) their for developing novel foods way highlight wide possibilities this crop. fruits are rich phytochemicals, such phenolics, anthocyanin, carotenoids, tocopherols, phytosterols dietary fiber, have been linked biological activities (antioxidant, antibacterial, anti-inflammatory, prebiotic, anticancer antitoxic properties) responsible use prevention control current diseases diabetes, cancer gastrointestinal, cardiovascular neurodegenerative industrialized countries.

Evaluation of synergistic/antagonistic antibacterial activities of fatty oils from apricot, date, grape, and black seeds

Scientific Reports, Journal Year: 2024, Volume and Issue: 14(1)

Published: March 19, 2024

Abstract The increasing antimicrobial resistance requires continuous investigation of new agents preferably derived from natural sources. New powerful antibacterial can be produced by simply combining oils that are known for their activities. In this study, apricot seed oil (ASO), date (DSO), grape (GSO), and black (BSO) alone in binary mixtures were assessed. Fatty acid profiles individual showed linoleic acid, oleic palmitic stearic linolenic contents. Linoleic was the most abundant fatty all samples except ASO, where dominant one. GSO highest total phenolic content while ASO lowest Antibacterial screening performed against Escherichia coli , Klebsiella pneumoniae Pseudomonas aeruginosa Proteus mirabilis Staphylococcus aureus . Results activity tested strains S. Highest recorded P. ASO-GSO mixture (AG) best it synergistic interactions conclusion, likely to show promising activities specific strains.
