Bioactive Components from Ginger, Tea and Apple Prevent Protein Glycation by Trapping Methylglyoxal with Potential in Alleviation of Diabetic Complications by Sang, Shengmin

“…However, the underlying molecular mechanisms are still largely unknown. In this project, we investigated the effect of bioactive compounds in ginger ([6]-shogaol (6S) and [6]-gingerol (6G)), tea (epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG)) and apple (phloretin and phloridzin) to inhibit the formation of AGEs via trapping MGO. …”

Spectrofluorometric investigations on the solvent effects on the photocyclization reaction of diclofenac by Abdulilah Dawoud, Bani-Yaseen

“…The solvent effects were qualitatively and quantitatively assessed employing various solvatochromic models, including multi-parameter linear regression analysis (MLRA). Interestingly, the MLRA results (R = 0.99) revealed that the photoconversion rate increases with increasing solvent polarizability (π*) and H-bond donor capability (α), whereas the rate decreases with increasing hydrogen-bond acceptor capability (β). …”

Plasma volume variations in response to high intensity interval training in obese women: The influential role of menopausal status and age by Jabbour, Georges

“…For all women pre- and post-HIIT comparisons revealed significant differences in the extent of PV reduction at all two points (P < 0.01). Multiple linear regression analysis revealed that age was a significant contributor to the decreases in plasma volume (PV) observed both after warm-up and following the supramaximal cycling test - SCT (r = 0.44 and r = 0.57). …”
