The antimicrobial activity of lactic acid bacteria (LAB) isolated from traditional ripened foods
against various foodborne pathogens was evaluated, and the bacteriocins produced by the …

The effect of gallic acid (GA) on the redox state of hemoglobin (Hb) and the structural

Processed and ready‐to‐eat foods become routinely consumed resulting in a sharp rise of
sugar intake in people's daily diets. The inclusion of fresh fruits and vegetables rich in (poly) …

The increased interest in achieving, solely through diet, the same effect on iron levels with
supplementation, leads to numerous studies on iron absorption of iron binding proteins …

Nonsymbiotic phytoglobins (nsHbs) are a diverse superfamily of hemoproteins grouped into
three different classes (1, 2, and 3) based on their sequences. Class 1 Hb are expressed …

Antioxidant assays are typically based on non-physiologically relevant reagents. We
describe here a quantitative assay based on the inhibition of the liposome autooxidation in …
