Tetracycline was reported to trigger intense lucigenin chemiluminescence (CL). Based on its significant quenching to lucigenin-tetracycline CL, procyanidin was detected. The mechanism of the lucigenin-tetracycline CL and its quenching by procyanidin were proposed. Under the optimum conditions, the calibration curve is linear in the range of 10-1000 nM for procyanidin with a detection limit of 4.4 nM. The RSD for nine replicate determinations of procyanidin was less than 1.7%. Moreover, this method was satisfactorily applied to the determination of procyanidin in human urine samples and health food capsule of grape seed.

The Nipah virus (NiV) poses a pressing global threat to public health due to its high mortality rate, multiple modes of transmission, and lack of effective treatments. NiV glycoprotein G (NiV-G) emerges as a promising target for the discovery of NiV drugs because of its essential role in viral entry and membrane fusion. Therefore, in this study, we applied an integrated computational and biophysics approach to identify potential inhibitors of NiV-G within a curated dataset of Peruvian phytochemicals.

Consumers' demand for foods with health benefits and different tastes is on an increasing trend. Juniper berries ("andiz" in Turkish) are the fruits of perennial, aromatic, and resinous trees. In this study, quality properties of herbal coffee samples obtained from juniper berries roasted at three different temperatures (120, 160, and 200 °C) and four different durations (10, 25, 32.

Flavan-3-ols are the most found flavonoid compounds in the human diet. Polymeric and monomeric flavan-3-ols reach the colonic region intact, where the gut microbiota utilizes them as substrates. In this research work, we investigated the pattern of colonic metabolites associated with flavan-3-ols, conducting a comprehensive analysis that combined (un)targeted metabolomics and in vitro colonic models.
