Bưởi có nhiều hợp chất có lợi cho sức khỏe như vitamin C, polyphenol. Nước bưởi sau thanh trùng thường có vị đắng khó chịu. Nghiên cứu này được thực hiện nhằm đánh giá khả năng cải thiện vị đắng của nước bưởi sau thanh trùng bằng phương pháp thủy phân với chế phẩm enzyme Biocitrus. Các yếu tố như pH (pH tự nhiên (3,5-3,6), 4,5, 5,5 và 6,5), nhiệt độ thủy phân (nhiệt độ phòng (29 – 31°C), 40°C, 50°C và 60°C) và thời gian thủy phân (0,5, 1,0, 2,0 và 3,0 giờ) lần lượt được thực hiện. Các hợp chất như naringin, polyphenol và vitamin C trong nước bưởi được định lượng bằng máy đo quang phổ UV-VIS, bên cạnh đó vị đắng của nước bưởi cũng được đánh giá cảm quan bằng phép thử cho điểm. Kết quả cho thấy thủy phân dịch bưởi tại nhiệt độ 60°C, pH môi trường 4,5 và thời gian thủy phân trong 2 giờ cho nước bưởi sau thanh trùng có vị đắng giảm so với nước bưởi không xử lý. Nước bưởi xử lý enzyme sau thanh trùng có hàm lượng naringin thấp hơn 2 lần so với nước bưởi không xử lý, giữa hai sản phẩm khác biệt về hàm lượng polyphenol và vitamin C. Enzyme Biocitrus có nhiều triển vọng trong ứng dụng giảm đắng của nước bưởi thanh trùng.

Abstract BackgroundNo specific medication has been proven effective for the treatment of patients with severe coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19). Here, we tested whether high-dose vitamin C infusion was effective for severe COVID-19.MethodsThis randomized, controlled clinical trial was performed at 3 hospitals in Hubei, China. Patients with confirmed severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) infection in the ICU were randomly assigned in as 1:1 ratio to either the high-dose intravenous vitamin C (HDIVC) or the placebo. HDIVC group received 12 g of vitamin C/50 ml every 12 hours for 7 days at a rate of 12 ml/hour, and the placebo group received bacteriostatic water for injection in the same way. The primary outcome was invasive mechanical ventilation-free days in 28 days(IMVFD28). Secondary outcomes were 28-day mortality, organ failure, and inflammation progression.ResultsFifty-four critical COVID-19 patients were ultimately recruited. There was no difference in IMVFD28 between two groups. During the 7-day treatment period, patients in the HDIVC group had a steady rise in the PaO2/FiO2 (day 7: 229 vs. 151 mmHg, 95% CI 33 to 122, P = 0.01). Patients with SOFA scores ≥ 3 in the HDIVC group exhibited a significant reduction in 28-day mortality (P = 0.05) in univariate survival analysis. IL-6 in the VC group was lower than that in the placebo group (19.42 vs. 158.00; 95% CI -301.72 to -29.79; P = 0.04) on day 7.ConclusionThe addition of HDIVC may provide a protective clinical effect without any adverse events in critically ill patients with COVID-19.Clinicaltrial.gov identifer: NCT04264533

The role of the essential nutrients, vitamins A,B (complex), C and E and iron, as prophylactic as well as supportive therapy in experimental visceral leishmaniasis (VL), was studied in hamsters. Prophylactic administration of vitamin C (50, 100 and 250 mg/kg) from day15 to day 0 (15 doses) significantly reduced the intake ofLeishmania donovaniin hamsters but had no therapeutic effect. In contrast, vitamins A,B complex and E and iron, whether used prophylactically or therapeutically, promoted parasite multiplication. The efficacy of sodium stibogluconate, a reference antileishmanial drug, was appreciably improved in animals administered prophylactically with vitamin C. However, supplementation of vitamin C during established infections resulted in reduced drug action. The results show that the prophylactic use of vitamin C may prevent the onset of leishmania infection and cautions against the indiscriminate use of nutrient supplements such as vitamin A, B complex, and E and iron in VL endemic areas.

Oral administration of sodium fluoride (40 mg/kg body weight) from day 6 to 19 of gestation caused, as compared to control, significant reductions in body weight, feed consumption, absolute uterine weight and number of implantations. Significantly higher incidence of skeletal (wavy ribs, 14th rib, <6 sternal centre, dumbell-shaped second and fifth sternebrae, incomplete ossification of skull and thickening of tibia) and visceral (subcutaneous haemorrhage) abnormalities were also observed in NaF-treated dams than that of control. Oral administration of vitamin C (50 mg/kg body weight) and vitamin E (2 mg/0.2 ml olive oil/animal/day) from day 6 to 19 of gestation along with NaF significantly ameliorates NaF-induced reductions in body weight, feed consumption, absolute uterine weight (only with vitamin E treatment) and number of implantations. As compared with NaF-treated alone, the total percentage of skeletal and visceral abnormalities were significantly lowered in fluoride plus vitamin C-treated animals. Vitamin E was less effective. These findings suggest that vitamin C significantly reduced the severity and incidence of fluoride-induced embryotoxicity in rats.

The effect of fertilisation with fermented pig slurry on the quantitative and qualitative parameters of two kinds of tomatoes was assessed by means of pot trials. These trials were carried out between the years 2005 and 2008. Each trial involved four treatments, namely (a) control without fertilisation, (b) fertilisation with mineral fertilisers, (c) 50% nutrients in mineral fertilisers and 50% in fermented pig slurry, and (d) fertilisation with fermented pig slurry only. Besides the yield parameters, the following characteristics were monitored: dry matter content, vitamin C content, titratable acidity, nitrogen compounds, nitrates and selected elements (Pb, Cd, As, Zn and Hg) contents. The fertilisation method showed no statistically significant influence on many parameters (titratable acidity, Hg, As, dry matter, vitamin C and nitrates contents). These results showed that anaerobically fermented pig slurry can be a suitable alternative to the use of mineral fertiliser. They also showed that its use as an organic fertiliser did not impair the hygienic quality and safety of the vegetable products grown, as all tomato samples fulfilled the tested heavy metals and nitrates legislation limits. The fertilisation method showed a statistically significant influence on the yield. Diffe-rences occurred between the organic and mineral methods in the case of Cd, and between non-fertilised and organic methods in the case of Zn. The fertilisation method also significantly influenced N-compounds content in tomatoes. A statistically significant influence of the year was found with all parameters except zinc and vitamin C contents. The influence of cultivar was also found, but only in the case of zinc and dry matter contents.

O mamão é um dos mais importantes frutos tropicais atualmente cultivados no país e no mundo, apresentando uma excelente fonte de vitaminas A e C, fósforo, cálcio, ferro e potássio, entre outros.  Apenas a polpa do mamão é geralmente consumida, o restante do fruto, casca e sementes, na maioria das vezes é rejeitado. Esses subprodutos podem ser úteis como elementos para estudos e suas utilizações alternativas, tendo como base as características químicas. Dessa forma, este trabalho foi realizado com o objetivo de avaliar o efeito de diferentes temperaturas de secagem no teor de vitamina C em farinha da casca, polpa e semente de mamão (Carica papaya). Os frutos foram adquiridos no mercado local da cidade de Morrinhos-Go, transportados para o laboratório e selecionados quanto ao estádio de maturação e danos físicos, foi aplicada a lavagem com posterior sanitização. O preparo da farinha foi realizado em diferentes temperaturas, 40 °C, 50 ºC e 60 °C por meio de secagem em estufa com circulação de ar. A determinação de vitamina C foi realizada pelo do método titulométrico com iodato de potássio. Nas amostras com aplicação de secagem a 60 ºC, a degradação da vitamina C foi relativamente maior quando comparadas às amostras secas a 40 ºC, as polpas de mamão secas a 40 ºC apresentaram menores teores de vitamina C, quando comparados aos resultados obtidos na aplicação de temperatura de secagem a 50 ºC, inferindo assim que o tempo e a temperatura de secagem influenciaram na degradação do teor de vitamina C. Palavras chave: Carica papaya. Secagem. Farinha. Vitamina C. AbstractPapaya is one of the most important tropical fruits currently cultivated in the country and in the world, presenting an excellent source of vitamins A and C, phosphorus, calcium, iron and potassium among others and fibers. Only the pulp of papaya is usually consumed, the rest of the fruit, peel and seeds, most of the time it is rejected. Such by-products may be useful as elements for studies and their alternative uses, based on the chemical characteristics. The goal of this study was to evaluate the effect of different drying temperatures on the content of vitamin C in the peel, pulp and seed from papaya (Carica papaya). The fruits were purchased in the local market of the city of Morrinhos-Go, transported to the laboratory and selected for maturation stage and physical damage, washing was applied with subsequent sanitization. Flour preparation was performed at different temperatures, 40 °C, 50 °C and 60 °C by drying in an air circulation oven. The determination of vitamin C was carried out using the titration method with potassium iodate. In the samples with drying application at 60 °C, the vitamin C degradation was relatively higher when compared to the dry samples at 40 ° C, the dried papaya pulps at 40 °C presented lower vitamin C contents when compared to the results obtained in the application of drying temperature at 50 °C, thus inferring that the drying time and temperature influenced the degradation of the vitamin C content. Keywords: Carica papaya.

Our was to determine the impact of CoenzymeQ10 (Co Q10) and vitamin C alone or in combination on oxidative stress in brain tissue of rats during endotoxemia induced by single intraperitoneal dose of Lipopolysaccharide (LPS), 500µg/kg. Both CoQ10&vitamin C were given orally to rats with doses (200&100 mg/kg) respectively for 7successive days prior induction of endotoxemia .LPS injected, with Co Q10 with doses (100 &200 mg/kg) &vit. C (50&100 mg/kg).In addition CoQ10 and vitamin C together in doses (100&50 mg/kg) & (200&100 mg/kg) respectively were added to LPS-treated rats. Then euthanized 4 hours later. Histopathological assessment of brain tissue was done. Results: LPS injection induced oxidative stress in brain tissue, resulting in marked increase in malondiadehyde (MDA), nitrite (NO) and Amyloid beta (Aβ), while decreasing reduced glutathione (GSH), paraoxonase-1 (PON1) and brain derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF).CoQ10 and vit.C administration with doses(200&100 mg/ kg) before endotoxemia result in reduction of brain MDA, NO and Aβ, while increasing levels of GSH, PON1 and BDNF compared to controls. The addition of both Co Q10 &vit.C to LPS- treated rats lead to decrease of brain NO, MDA and Aβ, also increase of GSH, PON1 and BDNF. This effect was more obviouswith high doses, this due to the ameliorating effect of both CoQ10 and vit.C on oxidative stress of brain tissue during endotoxemia.This consisted with the histopathological results. Conclusion: this work focuses on the possible role of CoQ10 &vit.C as antioxidants in protecting brain tissue.
