Production of plant products, including juices around the world increases continuously. In the fruit and vegetable juices contain a significant amount of monosaccharides (glucose and fructose), organic acids, vitamins, phenolic compounds, mineral substances and other biologically active components that determine the nutritional and dietary value. For the prevention of various diseases associated with impaired metabolic processes, we developed a new technology of preparation of food by blending juice of pumpkin, quince and persimmon. Thus prepared organic blended juice contains a substantial amount of free glucose and fructose, different phenolic compounds, a sufficient amount of organic acids, mineral elements, including iodine and other components that determine its nutritional and biological value. In prepared juices were evaluated the quantitative indicators of β-carotene, vitamin C, glucose and fructose, sucrose, starch, pectin substances. Also in the atomic absorbtion spectrometer Analyst 400 (PerkinElmer, USA) was analyzed content of the organic acids and phenolic compounds. Prepared juices were tested in accordance with 10 point scoring scale. It is established that all juices contain a sufficient amount of the minerals. In pumpkin and quince juices not contain iodine while it presents in sufficient amount in persimmon juice that’s why in the blended juice mineral in addition to mineral elements iodine are contained. In pumpkin and persimmon aliphatic acids are contained in small amount. For this reason during the blending process was used quince juice which is rich in aliphatic acids. The blended juice is light straw color, with delicious flavor, a slight astringent property and a balanced taste.

The main biologically active components of plants belonging to the genus Allium, responsible for their biological activities, including anti-inflammatory, antioxidant and immunomodulatory, are organosulfur compounds. The aim of this study was to synthetize the mixture of dipropyl polysulfides (DPPS) and to test their biological activity in acute hepatitis. C57BL/6 mice were administered orally with DPPS 6 h before intravenous injection of Concanavalin A (ConA). Liver inflammation, necrosis and hepatocytes apoptosis were determined by histological analyses. Cytokines in liver tissue were determined by ELISA, expression of adhesive molecules and enzymes by RT PCR, while liver mononuclear cells were analyzed by flow cytometry. DPPS pretreatment significantly attenuated liver inflammation and injury, as evidenced by biochemical and histopathological observations. In DPPS-pretreated mice, messenger RNA levels of adhesion molecules and NADPH oxidase complex were significantly reduced, while the expression of SOD enzymes was enhanced. DPPS pretreatment decreased protein level of inflammatory cytokines and increased percentage of T regulatory cells in the livers of ConA mice. DPPS showed hepatoprotective effects in ConA-induced hepatitis, characterized by attenuation of inflammation and affection of Th17/Treg balance in favor of T regulatory cells and implicating potential therapeutic usage of DPPS mixture in inflammatory liver diseases.

The tuberculin activity of protoplasmic extracts isolated from living BCG was purified successively by gel filtration on Sephadex G-100 and G-75, and by electrophoresis on 7.5% and on gradient (6–18%) polyacrylamide gels. The tuberculin-active fractions, as determined in BCG-sensitized guinea pigs, were used as the starting material for each of the following fractionation steps.The physicochemical properties and the antigenic activity of the biologically active fractions have shown that a single component, or only a few ones with similar properties, possessed high tuberculin activity. These active components were proteins having relatively high molecular weights (about 72 000) and could behave as antigens.

Objective: As per the ethnopharmacological information has Butea monosperma been used to treat diabetes mellitus by the tribal people of tropical and subtropical areas. However, there is no much more scientific report available about the antidiabetic property of the leaves of the plant. Hence, the study was undertaken to evaluate the antidiabetic effect of ethanolic extract of B. monosperma on blood levels of adrenaline-induced and glucose feed diabetic rabbits.Methods: The three different doses of the extracts (100, 200, and 400 mg/kg) were administered orally to an experimental animal. The animals were induced diabetics by adrenaline and high glucose diet. Blood glucose level was measured accordingly. For antidiabetic activity, photocolorimeter was used to monitoring the blood glucose level with crest kit box (GOP-POD method).Results: The extracts showed considerable dose-dependent activity. However, the dose 400 mg/kg showed considerable lower of blood glucose level. p<0.01 indicates the significance result. 8 hrs reading 182.5±3.83 for 400 mg does is most effective for reducing blood sugar.Conclusion: The study indicates that the ethanolic extract of B. monosperma leaves possesses antidiabetic properties which suggest the presence of biologically active components.

For the first time, a liposomal form of a new original drug based on the Siberian musk deer preputial gland extract was obtained and characterized. An effective and scalable method of high-pressure homogenization was used for preparative extraction of liposomes from musk extracts. For the obtained liposomal product, such indicators as the quality of size distribution, homogeneity and the degree of inclusion of biologically active components were characterized using the methods of dynamic light scattering, transmission microscopy, preparative and analytical chromatography and chromatography-mass spectrometry. A homogeneous dispersion of musk liposomes with a uniform size distribution was obtained, with the maximum distribution values being achieved at 50 and 240 nm. The ζ-potential of the obtained nanoparticles of –35...–47 mV confirmed a high physicochemical stability of the developed liposomal dispersion. According to the gel filtration chromatography and mass spectrometry results, the degree of inclusion of the target musk extract components in the liposomes was 55–75% in terms of steroid and total protein values. The obtained quality indicators indicate that the developed liposomal composition of musk deer extracts can be used as a high-effective natural adaptogen.

The perishable herb ginger (Zingiber officinale) possesses natural aroma and different biologically active components which are beneficial for our health. This can be dried for preservation in pick season for shelf-life increment. This study studied the analysis of the chemical composition, moisture sorption isotherm, dehydration kinetics of ginger for preservation. Air drying was carried out using a cabinet dryer at different temperatures and thickness. According to the sorption isotherm study, monolayer moisture content (MMC) is higher as per Guggenheim-Anderson-DeBoer (GAB) equation compared to the Brunauer-Emmett-Teller (BET) equation. Drying rate increased with the increase in temperature at constant thickness while the adverse result was found with the increase in thickness at a constant temperature. Then, powder-based drinks were prepared by using five different percentages of ginger. The preferences of consumers were measured by statistical analysis of the scores obtained from the response of organoleptic taste panel. The sample containing 1.84% ginger powder was considered the best in overall acceptability

Implantation Model

Damage to the tendon-ligamentous apparatus places serious limitations on a personʼs physical activity. Injuries are especially common in physically healthy people leading an active lifestyle, such as athletes. To treat such injuries in orthopaedics and traumatology, autoplastic operations are performed or prostheses made of synthetic or biological materials are installed. The known treatment methods, in spite of their effectiveness, have a number of serious drawbacks, which often limit their use. Therefore, the search for new approaches and materials for plastic ligaments is an urgent task. Today, biotissue prostheses are accumulating advantages over their synthetic counterparts. The most promising raw material for biological ligament prostheses, due to its availability in the required quantity and optimal size, is the flexor and extensor calf tendons. This paper aimed to develop a method for treating xenogenic tendon to manufacture ligament prostheses and assessing its biocompatibility in a heterotopic implantation model. To manufacture a ligament prosthesis, the raw material was subjected to mechanical cleaning and chemical-physical treatment, as well as treatment with supercritical carbon dioxide fluid with the addition of the nonionic surfactant Tween 80, which together contributed to effective decellularization and removal of other biologically active components, while maintaining the physical and mechanical parameters and natural fiberarchitectonics of native raw materials. The biocompatible properties of ligament prosthesis specimens made from the flexor and extensor calf tendons using this method were evaluated in a model of heterotopic implantation into the subcutaneous adipose tissue of rats. The results obtained confirm the promising use of this material, treated according to the proposed method, in clinical practice.

New Generation

Nowadays manufacturing of new-generation food, including functional products, is especially important. Drinks based on fruits and berries are considered at present as optimum form of food required for organism replenishment with biologically active components and vitamins aiming at organism recovery. The retention of valuable components of fruits and berries is of great concern during such production. In order to produce functional juices, it is required to decrease oxygen amount upon their production in order to prevent destructive changes in drink, to improve its quality, to perform subsequent procedures and preservation. It is proposed to modify deaeration and to apply advanced equipment: deaerator with gas separation membrane which would allow to remove higher oxygen amount in comparison with the existing equipment while producing juices of predefined quality with high content of vitamins. The experiments were carried out with freshly squeezed black current juices using a vacuum unit, an Expert-009 analyzer of dissolved oxygen with optical sensor, a gas separation membrane. The juice quality was determined by its content of ascorbic acid (vitamin C) since it is destroyed under impact of oxygen. The content of ascorbic acid during storage was measured on juices produced by different deaeration procedures. The obtained experimental results proved efficiency of membrane application during juice production showing high content of vitamins. The content of ascorbic acid during storage was higher in the juice after deaeration using gas separation membrane in comparison with the juice without treatment and with the juice after vacuum deaeration. Therefore, the most efficient method to achieve the best removal of oxygen from juice is preheating of juice to 65°C with subsequent application of deaerator with gas separation membrane, subsequent packing and cooling of final product.
