Inhibition effect of three common proanthocyanidins from grape seeds, peanut skins and pine barks on maize starch retrogradation

The study focused on the green synthesis of silver nanobioconjugates (AgNPs) from phenolic-rich fruit source, Vitis vinifera seed extract and its major component phenolic, resveratrol respectively. Sunlight exposure for 20 minutes was the method of choice for the synthesis of AgNPs of the extract as well as the phenolic, resveratrol. The synthesized nanobioconjugates were characterized using UV-Visible spectroscopy, Transmission electron microscopy (TEM), Energy dispersive X-ray analysis (EDAX), X-ray diffraction (XRD), Polydispersity index, Zeta potential and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR). The reduction of silver ions was confirmed by UV-visible spectroscopy with peaks at 440nm for both nanobioconjugates synthesized from seed extract and compound. The nanobioconjugates showed the spherical in shape with 14-35nm in size and crystalline in nature. The conjugates are well dispersed with 0.301 and 0.287 polydispersity index and the zeta potential range at -13.6 and -14.3mV for stability. The FTRI data proved that the components in grape seeds act as good reductants and stabilizers for the silver nanobioconjugate synthesis. All the synthesized nanobioconjugates exhibited steady and sustained release of the medicinal components conjugated, proving their druggability, and were biocompatible with human cells, demonstrating their safety. The findings of the study validate the anticancer properties of silver nanobioconjugates of Vitis vinifera and its active component resveratrol.

Interest in the biological role of bioactive compounds present in medicinal herbs has increased over the last years. Of particular interest are plants that have an anti-Alzheimer activities. Several plants can be useful for Alzheimer (AD) management. Such as these which have anti-inflammatory activity, acetylcholinesterase (AChE) inhibitory action, antiapoptotic, slow the aggregation of amyloid peptide and antioxidant activities. Grape seed extract (GSE) is a complex mixture of several compounds, mostly represented by polyphenols and flavonoids. Their consumption is safe and is recognized to exert several health benefits. GS flavonoids have been associated with the reduced risk of chronic diseases, we present some findings on the potential benefits of GSE for the treatment of AD.

Despite the unmistakable beneficial effect of clopidogrel on platelet aggregation,still there are some patient poorly responds to clopidogrel that may lead to worse cardiovascular clinical events.One hundred and twenty seven patients with cardiovascular disease (ACS,stroke,or TIA) were enrolled as a study group. Patients were recruited at coronary care unit (CCU) of Al-Yarmouk Teaching Hospital. Paletlet assessment was done by using light transmission aggregometry. between the patients that enrolled in this study there are significant inter-individual variability both skewness and Kurtosis were negative (-0.450,-0.130) respectively. 24% of patient enrolled in this study were hyporesponder.

<pre>Background : Untreated caries will continue and microorganisms enter the pulp resulting in an inflammatory response and pulp necrosis. Sterilization is one part of root canal treatment and is important for the success of root canal treatment. Stolephorus insularis contains antibacterial substances such as fluor. Previous research showed that extract Stolephorus insularis has antibacterial activity in Streptococcus mutans bacteria.</pre><pre>Purpose : This study aims to determine the antibacterial power of Stolephorus insularis extract on the growth of Staphylococcus aereus bacteria by using 3 concentrations of 18%, 24% and 30%.</pre><pre>Material and Method :This resesarch use culture of Staphylococcus aereus bacteria in MH blood agar, Stolephorus insularis extract with various concentrations (18%, 24%, 30%), 7% Na CMC, 1% DMSO solution, agar BHI media. Culture of Staphylococcus aereus was taken from liquid BHI media, then rubbed on the entire surface of BHI media using a sterile cotton stick. The antibacterial zone formed is measured.</pre><pre> </pre><pre>Result : Based on the results of the Mann-Whitney test there were significant differences in the inhibitory power of Staphylococcus aureus bacteria (p <0.05) in the K + group with groups K-, P1, P2 and P3. Whereas between groups P1 with K-, group P2 with K- and P1, and group P3 with K-, P1 and P2 there were no significant differences because the significant value was greater than 0.05</pre><pre>Conclusion : There is no antimicrobial power at concentrations of 18%, 24%, and 30%. Quantitative research needs to be done to determine the decrease in the number of bacterial colonies.</pre> Keywords : Inhibition effect, Stolephorus insularis, Staphylococcus aereus Correspondence : Ayulistya Paramita, Paediatric Departemen.
