AI Article Synopsis

  • The study explores over 60 natural compounds found in marine red seaweeds and their antioxidant properties.
  • It highlights that seaweeds from the Ceramiales order, specifically the Rhodomelaceae family, show the greatest potential for producing antioxidants.
  • The antioxidant activities are linked to the seaweeds' capability to synthesize polyphenols and their derivatives, such as bromophenols.

Article Abstract

The present work describes more than 60 natural products from marine red seaweeds (Rhodophyta) and their antioxidant activities. The results indicate that algae belonging to the order Ceramiales, family Rhodomelaceae are the most promising as potential producers of antioxidants. This activity seems to be related to the ability to synthesize polyphenols and their derivatives, as bromophenols.

Glucose is the most abundant monosaccharide and a principal substrate in biotechnological production processes. In Pseudomonas, this sugar is either imported directly into the cytosol or first oxidised to gluconate in the periplasm. While gluconate is taken up via a proton-driven symporter, the import of glucose is mediated by an ABC-type transporter, and hence both require energy.

Insulin bound with ligand molecules can improve its bioavailability in oral formulations. In this work, the interactions between insulin and bile acids of taurocholic acid (TCA) and glycocholic acid (GCA) are characterized using different mass spectrometry (MS) methods. Electrospray (ESI)-MS analysis revealed that GCA and TCA could interact with insulin individually or together through non-covalent bonds, and the products included mGCA-insulin, nTCA-insulin, and mGCA-nTCA-insulin complexes.

Agricultural waste or agro-waste, including natural fibers and particles from various crop parts, is increasingly recognized as a significant contributor to environmental issues. However, from a circular economy perspective, these materials present an opportunity to be repurposed into new, eco-friendly products. The present study, specifically focuses on understanding the effect of different factors, such as the particulate loading and the size (coir and hBN - 1 to 5 wt%; Coir Powder size (100-200 μm) of the particles on composite's corrosion rates and water absorption properties.
