Cryo-Ground Mango Kernel Powder: Characterization, LC-MS/MS Profiling, Purification of Antioxidant-Rich Gallic Acid, and Molecular Docking Study of Its Major Polyphenols as Potential Inhibitors against SARS-CoV-2 M.

Mango processing waste (MPW) is an inexpensive and rich source of valuable substances. Hence, the mango kernel powder (MKP) from four cultivars (Chausa, Neelum, Barahmasi, and Dashehari) was characterized for the selection of the best cultivar. The MKP of the best cultivar (Dashehari) was analyzed for the profiling of polyphenols using LC-MS/MS in both modes of ionization (positive and negative) and indicated the presence of 50 compounds with specific retention times.

Self-Assembled Tea Tannin Graft Copolymer as Nanocarriers for Antimicrobial Drug Delivery and Wound Healing Activity.

Green chemistry polymers from renewable resources have recently received much more attention from pharmaceutical researchers. However, the appropriate application of a polymer depends on its chemical nature, biocompatibility and microstructure. Here, tannin polyphenols from the common beverage, tea, are used to develop a novel self-assembled porous capsule as a microstructure of hydrogel for versatile biological applications, such as drug delivery, antioxidant and wound healing activity.

Antibacterial coating on in-line suction respiratory catheter to inhibit the bacterial biofilm formation using renewable cardanyl methacrylate copolymer.

Health-care materials associated with infections are very common in hospital admitted patients. There are generally infected by contact with the catheter or other multipurpose devices which are contacted with microbes. The respiratory infections associated with the pathogens having strong biofilm forming ability on catheter surface, causes life-threatening in every year.

Radical scavenging and antibacterial activity of caffemides against gram positive, gram negative and clinical drug resistance bacteria.

A new series of caffemide were synthesized and their antioxidant and antibacterial activities were explored. Antioxidant and antibacterial activities were measured of different structures of caffemide containing different functional groups. Anti-oxidative caffemides 1b and 1g showed significantly higher activity against different bacteria with MIC values less than 50μg/ml.

Self-assembled cardanol azo derivatives as antifungal agent with chitin-binding ability.

Cardanol is a non-isoprenoic phenolic lipid-mixture of distilled cashew nut shell liquid obtained from Anacardium occidentale. Herein, cardanol is purified from cashew nut shell liquid (CNSL) and synthesized to new compounds with different azo amphiphiles. These synthesized compounds are allowed to self-assembled in hydrophobic environment and checked antifungal activity against Candida albicans.

Factors affecting the resolution of dl-menthol by immobilized lipase-catalyzed esterification in organic solvent.

Among 10 lipases tested, Candida rugosa lipase exhibited the best ability to catalyze the resolution of dl-menthol in organic solvent. The lipase was immobilized on different carriers, and the experiment was carried out with different acyl donors. The high yield and optical purity of the product were achieved in cyclohexane with valeric acid as acyl donor using C.
