Article Synopsis
  • - The study investigates the use of Garden cress seed extract (GRCE) in sodium alginate (SALG) films for bio-based food packaging, testing various concentrations (1%, 3%, and 5%) to assess their impact.
  • - GRCE is rich in phenolic compounds, notably gallic and chlorogenic acids, leading to significant increases in total phenolic content and antioxidant activities in the SALG films with higher GRCE concentrations.
  • - The incorporation of GRCE improved physical properties of the films, reduced water vapor permeability, and showed effectiveness in lowering the peroxide value of stored sunflower oil, indicating its potential as a functional food packaging material.

This study investigated the development of biodegradable films made from a combination of carboxymethyl cellulose (CMC), Polyvinyl alcohol (PVA), and purified extract of broccoli sprout seed (BSSE). The films were characterized for their color, physical properties, surface morphology, crystallinity, mechanical properties, and thermal properties. The addition of BSSE up to 1.

Inherited Palmoplantar Keratodermas are rare disorders of genodermatosis that are conventionally regarded as autosomal dominant in inheritance with extensive clinical and genetic heterogeneity. This is the first report of a unique autosomal recessive Inherited Palmoplantar keratoderma -sensorineural hearing loss syndrome which has not been reported before in 3 siblings of a large consanguineous family. The patients presented unique clinical features that were different from other known Inherited Palmoplantar Keratodermas -hearing loss syndromes.
