Electrospun zein incorporating phycocyanin and Spirulina extract: Fabrication, characterization, and potential application

Electrospinning was used to develop zein fibers containing phycocyanin and aqueous-ethanolic extract of Spirulina (AEES) for elucidating the potent packaging properties of phycocyanin and AEES on walnut samples. Morphological results revealed that using th ...

Impact of the Natural Compound Urolithin A on Health, Disease, and Aging

Johan Auwerx, Davide D'Amico, Pamela Solange Valdés Undurraga, Pénélope Andreux

Urolithin A (UA) is a natural compound produced by gut bacteria from ingested ellagitannins (ETs) and ellagic acid (EA), complex polyphenols abundant in foods such as pomegranate, berries, and nuts. UA was discovered 40 years ago, but only recently has its ...

Generation of hydroxyl radical during chlorination of hydroxyphenols and natural organic matter extracts

Urs von Gunten, Eva Maria Rodriguez Franco

The generation of hydroxyl radicals ((OH)-O-center dot) during the chlorination of air saturated solutions of different hydroxyphenols (hydroquinone, resorcinol, catechol, gallic and tannic acids) at pH 7 has been determined by the formation of phenol (in ...

Enhanced transformation of sulfonamide antibiotics by manganese(IV) oxide in the presence of model humic constituents

Urs von Gunten, Jun Ma, Jin Jiang

In this study, a manganese(IV) oxide-mediator (MnO2-mediator) system for the abatement of sulfonamide antibiotics was evaluated. Two simple model humic constituents, syringaldehyde (SA) and acetosyringone (AS), could promote the transformation of sulfonami ...

Polyphenols as Morphogenetic Agents for the Controlled Synthesis of Mesoporous Silica Nanoparticles

Fabien Sorin, Jialuo Luo

Non-surfactant-induced synthesis of mesoporous silica nanoparticles (MSNPs) is gaining increasing interest because of their low toxicity and simple purification compared to conventional surfactant-based methods. Tannic acid (TA), considered as a glucose-de ...

Sphagnum Species Modulate their Phenolic Profiles and Mycorrhizal Colonization of Surrounding Andromeda polifolia along Peatland Microhabitats

Alexandre Buttler, Vincent Eric Jules Jassey

Sphagnum mosses mediate long-term carbon accumulation in peatlands. Given their functional role as keystone species, it is important to consider their responses to ecological gradients and environmental changes through the production of phenolics. We compa ...

Reaction of bromine and chlorine with phenolic compounds and natural organic matter extracts - Electrophilic aromatic substitution and oxidation

Urs von Gunten, Eva Maria Rodriguez Franco

Phenolic compounds are known structural moieties of natural organic matter (NOM), and their reactivity is a key parameter for understanding the reactivity of NOM and the disinfection by-product formation during oxidative water treatment. In this study, spe ...
