The aim of this study was to evaluate the in vitro and in vivo effect of prebiotic characteristics of cactus pear peel and pineapple peel flour. The chemical composition and antioxidant capacity of cactus pear peel and pineapple peel flour were determined. Subsequently, both samples were also used as a...
Parkinson's disease (PD) is characterized by a progressive deficit in motor function as a result of the loss of dopaminergic neurons in the substantia nigra. A small percentage of the PD incidence presents a hereditary component, but most cases are sporadic or associated with some chemical and/or environmental factor. 1-...
En esta investigación se describe la caracterización cinética y analítica de biosensores, elaborados sobre electrodos de tipo screen-printed (ESP) utilizando laccasa de Trametes versicolor, o tirosinasa mushroom como elementos de reconocimiento ambas son el atrapamiento, el reticulado y el enlace covalente en seis condiciones experimentales diferentes (ver Tabla I). Cada...
Lecanicillium lecanii is an entomopathogenic fungus used commercially as a biopesticide in agriculture and horticulture. However, there is scarcity of information about how L. lecanii production of hydrophobins-like proteins (HfbLs) and chitinases are required for their development and enzymes related to pathogenic activity. Therefore, this study evaluated the effect of...
Four flavonols namely: Quercetin, Morin, Kaempferol and Myricetin were studied using spectrophotometry UV/Vis, in aqueous solution. The study was performed varying the pH to analyze the stability of these compounds, and to estimate their acidity constants. In addition, the deprotonation mechanisms were studied using computational chemistry, within the Density Functional...
Las emisiones de gases que contribuyen al calentamiento global son un grave problema para la humanidad y los ecosistemas debido a sus efectos sobre y industrial han dado lugar a la dióxido de carbono (CO₂), metano (CH₄) y oxido nitroso (N₂O), que contribuyen al efecto de invernadero. El CH₄ tiene...
La diarrea es consecuencia de la disfunción en el transporte de agua y electrolitos a nivel del intestino. Como resultado de esta alteración se produce un aumento de la frecuencia, cantidad y volumen de las heces, además de cambio en la consistencia de éstas debido al incremento de agua y...
