Acacia confusa Merr. (Leguminosae), a species native to Taiwan, is widely distributed on the hills and lowlands of Taiwan, and has been used in traditional medicines. In this study, the application of ultrasound-assisted extraction was used to extract the phenolic compounds from A. confusa flowers and buds for the first time. Among the extraction methods, it can significantly enhance the contents of phenolic compounds and antioxidant activities in A. confusa flower and bud extracts using ultrasound-assisted extraction (10 min×12 times). Considering both the solvent consumption and the time needed for extraction, ultrasound-assisted extraction was found to be the most practical approach for the rapid and efficient extraction of bioactive phenolic constituents. In addition, gallic acid, myricitrin-3-rhamnoside, quercitrin-3-rhamnoside, europetin-3-rhamnoside, kaempferol-3-rhamnoside, rhamnetin-3-glucoside, and rhamnetin-3-rhamnoside were also quantified in different extracts by RP-HPLC. It is clear that ultrasound-assisted extraction is an efficient method for extracting phenolic compounds from A. confusa flowers and buds.

This work investigated the production and characterization of a silk fibroin (SF) hydrogel incorporated with an (AV) extract. Four extraction methods, ultrasound-assisted extraction with bath and probe, stirring, and Soxhlet, were tested, while the hydrogel was produced by a one-step freeze-thaw method. Besides the extraction yield, the antioxidant capacity of the extracts was accessed, which allowed to select the extract obtained by ultrasound-assisted extraction to be incorporated into the hydrogels.

Background: Gut dysbiosis, chronic diseases, and microbial recurrent infections concerns have driven the researchers to explore phytochemicals from medicinal and food homologous plants to modulate gut microbiota, mitigate diseases, and inhibit pathogens. Gingerols have attracted attention as therapeutic agents due to their diverse biological activities like gut microbiome regulation, gastro-protective, anti-inflammatory, anti-microbial, and anti-oxidative effects.
Purpose: This review aimed to summarize the gingerols health-promoting potential, specifically focusing on the regulation of gut microbiome, attenuation of disease symptoms, mechanisms of action, and signaling pathways involved.

Article Synopsis
- The study explores using hydrolysis of yellowfin tuna skin waste as an eco-friendly method to produce gelatin, and highlights ultrasound pre-treatment as a way to enhance extraction efficiency.
- Factors like ultrasound amplitude, pre-treatment duration, enzyme concentration, and hydrolysis time were tested to determine optimal conditions for maximizing yield and quality of gelatin, which resulted in specific optimal parameters.
- The final gelatin showed promising properties such as high viscosity, gel strength, emulsifying abilities, antioxidant activity, and good digestibility, marking a step towards sustainable gelatin production from fish waste.
