Phenolic Profile and Antioxidant Capacity of Invasive L.: Potential Applications in Phytopharmacy.

Canadian goldenrod L.), an invasive plant in Europe, is known for its allelopathic activity and is rich in bioactive compounds like flavonoids and phenolic acids, with significant pharmacological potential. This study presents the LC-MS phenolic profiles of leaf and flower extracts from , an invasive alien plant in the Istria region (Croatia).

Effect of Protein, Carbohydrate, and Oil on Phytochemical Bioaccessibility and Bioactivities of the L. Leaf Formulations After In Vitro Digestion.

The present work evaluates the effect of casein, glucose, and olive oil on phytochemical bioaccessibility, antioxidant potential (DPPH and FRAP), antidiabetic potential (inhibition of amylase, α-glucosidase, and BSA glycation), and antihyperlipidemic potential (inhibition of lipase) of gingko standardized leaf extract in the form of tablets after in vitro digestion. Gingko extract formulations with protein, carbohydrates, and oil had high (>70%) in vitro bioaccessibility of quercetin, kaempferol, and isorhamnetin after each phases of digestion in comparison to moderate (35-70%) in vitro bioaccessibility from gingko water extract. Formulation with the highest in vitro bioaccessibility of the majority of the tested polyphenolic groups and terpene lactones after oral and intestinal phases was ginkgo with olive oil.

Phenolic content and antioxidant activity of Croatian and German honey.

Since honey has a therapeutic role in the treatment of many diseases, we investigated the content of phenolic compounds and the antioxidant activity in acacia ( L.), chestnut ( Mill.) and lime-tree ( spp.

Lack of pragmatic attitude of self-labelled pragmatic trials on manual therapy: a methodological review.

Background: Pragmatic randomized controlled trials are getting more interest to improve trials' external validity. This study aimed to assess how pragmatic the design of the self-labelled pragmatic randomised controlled trials in the manual therapy field is.

Methods: We searched MEDLINE and the Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials for self-labelled pragmatic randomised controlled trials in the manual therapy field until January 2024 were included.

Phytochemical Composition and Functional Properties of Brassicaceae Microgreens: Impact of In Vitro Digestion.

The aim of this study was to compare the concentration of phenolic compounds, glucosinolates, proteins, sugars and vitamin C between kohlrabi ( var. ), Savoy cabbage (), Brussels sprouts (), cauliflower (), radish () and garden cress () microgreens for their antioxidant and hypoglycemic potential. In addition, we applied an in vitro-simulated system of human digestion in order to track the bioaccessibility of the selected phenolic representatives, and the stability of the microgreens' antioxidant and hypoglycemic potential in terms of α-amylase and α-glucosidase inhibition after each digestion phase.
