Unlabelled: In this study, we examined the effect of roasted coffee extract on 7,12-dimethylbenz[a]anthracene (DMBA)-induced buccal pouch carcinogenesis in male Syrian hamsters using lipid peroxidation, reduced glutathione (GSH) and glutathione peroxidase (GPx) activity as biomarkers of chemoprevention. Forty male hamsters were divided into four groups of 10 animals. The right buccal pouches of the animals in Group 1 was painted with a 0.5% solution of DMBA in liquid paraffin three times a week. The animals in Group 2 painted with DMBA as in Group 1, received in addition 2 ml of 8% black coffee extract intragastrically three times a week on days alternate to DMBA application. Group 3 animals received coffee extract as in Group 2. Animals in Group 4 received neither DMBA nor coffee extract and served as control. The hamsters were sacrificed after an experimental period of 14 weeks. Biochemical measurements were carried out on tumour and normal pouch tissues. Administration of roasted coffee extract had no preventive effect on DMBA-induced oral cancer as revealed by the higher mean tumour volume and tumour burden compared to animals painted with DMBA alone. Diminished lipid peroxidation in the oral tumour tissue was accompanied by a significant increase in the levels of GSH and GPx.
Conclusions: The results of the present study suggest that coffee exerts a tumour enhancing effect when administered during DMBA-induced hamster buccal pouch carcinogenesis.

The applicability of cellulose and its derivatives is greatly depends on their attributes such as aspect ratio, morphology, surface chemistry, crystallinity, as well as their thermal and mechanical properties. However, these attributes can alter according to the utilized raw material, size classifications, extraction techniques, or fibrillation methods. Among these, the effect of raw material particle size on cellulose properties has received limited attention in scientific studies.

Bio-valorization of agri-food wastes lies in their possible conversion into fermented foodstuffs/beverages and/or biodegradable polymers such as bacterial cellulose. In this study, three different kombucha cultures were formulated using agri-food waste materials, citrus fruit residues and used coffee grounds, as alternative carbon and nitrogen sources, respectively. Over 21 days of fermentation, the kinetic profile was followed by monitoring cell number, pH variation, minerals, trace elements and production of bacterial cellulose.

Background: Oral cancer is a common head and neck cancer malignancy that seriously affects patients' quality of life and increases the health care burden. Moreover, there is a lack of comprehensive reviews of previous research on factors associated with oral cancer. The aim of the current umbrella review was to provide a comprehensive and systematic summary of relevant studies, to grade the quality of evidence of relevant studies, and to provide guidance for the prevention of oral cancer.

Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) are carcinogenic compounds resulting from incomplete burning of organic materials. This work describes the successful layer-by-layer fabrication of a novel zinc oxide nanocomposite made of zinc oxide nanoparticles, aniline, sodium dodecyl sulfate, and modified multi-walled carbon nanotubes on a stainless steel wire by electrodeposition. The coating and extraction conditions were screened, optimized, and validated using factorial design and central composite design, respectively.
