Molecules, Vol. 28, Pages 2557: Study of Influence of Extraction Method on the Recovery Bioactive Compounds from Peel Avocado
The avocado peel is a waste material from consumption avocado (Persea americana Mill.) with big biotechnology potential. The purpose of the present work was to study the influence of six extraction methods, maceration (M), maceration plus &amp;beta;-cyclodextrin (M&amp;beta;C), solid-state fermentation (SSF), sonication with water or ethanol, wet grinding (WG), wet grinding plus maceration (WGM), on the recovery of bioactive compounds from the avocado peel such as total phenols, epicatechin and chlorogenic acid. The results showed that the extraction method has a significant effect on the content of total phen...

Avocado peel extract loaded on chitosan nanoparticles alleviates urethane toxicity that causes lung cancer in a mouse model
In conclusion, our study demonstrated the superior anticancer potency of Cs@AVP NC over AVP extract and its ability to inhibit lung cancer proliferation. Therefore, oral consumption of Cs@AVP NC might be a promising treatment for lung cancer.PMID:36791938 | DOI:10.1016/j.ijbiomac.2023.123633 (Source: International Journal of Biological Macromolecules)

Avocado Peel Extract: The effect of radiation-induced on neuroanatomical and behavioral changes in rats
This study investigated the radioprotective effect of avocado peel extract on congenital malformations and on the behavior of Sprague-Dawley (SD) rats. Experimental animals were randomly classified into four groups: NC Group, normal control; PA Group, oral administration with avocado peel extract (200mg/kg/day); IR Group, irradiation; and PA+IR Group, irradiation after orally administered with avocado peel extract. For irradiation, 2Gy of 6MV X-ray was used once for the whole body. After that, congenital malformations, histopathological evaluation of the brain, and behavioral evaluation were performed in the obtained offsp...

Effect of 8-Week Consumption of a Dietary Pattern Based on Fruit, Avocado, Whole Grains, and Trout on Postprandial Inflammatory and Oxidative Stress Gene Expression in Obese People
Nutrients. 2023 Jan 7;15(2):306. doi: 10.3390/nu15020306.ABSTRACTOverweight and obesity constitute a major global public health problem. Healthy dietary patterns induce changes at the molecular level. Currently, there are no studies evaluating the effect of a diet based on fruit, avocado, whole grains, and trout (FAWGT diet) on the expression of obesity-related genes. This randomized controlled crossover study included 44 obese Colombians with BMI ≥30 kg/m2 who followed either a FAWGT diet or a usual diet (UD) characterized by a high intake of saturated fat and foods rich in processed carbohydrates. After 8 weeks of inte...

Anticipatory Processing in a Verb-Initial Mayan Language: Eye-Tracking Evidence During Sentence Comprehension in Tseltal
We present a visual world eye-tracking study on Tseltal (a Mayan language) and investigate whether verbal information can be used to anticipate an upcoming referent. Basic word order in transitive sentences in Tseltal is Verb-Object-Subject (VOS). The verb is usually encountered first, making argument structure and syntactic information available at the outset, which should facilitate anticipation of the post-verbal arguments. Tseltal speakers listened to verb-initial sentences with either an object-predictive verb (e.g., "eat") or a general verb (e.g., "look for") (e.g., "Ya slo'/sle ta stukel on te kereme," Is eating/is ...

Sensors, Vol. 23, Pages 952: The Novel Combination of Nano Vector Network Analyzer and Machine Learning for Fruit Identification and Ripeness Grading
Le-Thanh Fruit classification is required in many smart-farming and industrial applications. In the supermarket, a fruit classification system may be used to help cashiers and customer to identify the fruit species, origin, ripeness, and prices. Some methods, such as image processing and NIRS (near-infrared spectroscopy) are already used to classify fruit. In this paper, we propose a fast and cost-effective method based on a low-cost Vector Network Analyzer (VNA) device augmented by K-nearest neighbor (KNN) and Neural Network model. S-parameters features are selected, which take into account the information on signal ...
