Abstract The locust bean gum (LBG) is a polysaccharide with thickening, stabilizing and gelling properties and it has been used in the preparation of pharmaceutical formulations. Hydrogels (HGs) are obtained from natural or synthetic materials that present interesting properties for skin application. Thi...
ABSTRACT Soybeans contain about 30% carbohydrate, mainly consisting of non-starch polysaccharides (NSP) and oligosaccharides. NSP are not hydrolyzed in the gastrointestinal tract of monogastric animals. These NSP negatively affect the development of these animals, especially the soluble fraction. This wo...
A ingestão regular de fibras alimentares pode auxiliar na redução do risco de certas doenças crônicas, como doenças cardiovasculares, síndromes metabólicas, diabetes tipo 2 e alguns tipos de câncer. Dentre as principais fontes de fibras alimentares, destaca-se o grão de trigo, que é rico em fi...
A bactéria gram-positiva Streptococcus agalactiae do grupo B (GBS) faz parte da microbiota normal do trato geniturinário humano, sendo um organismo comensal do corpo da mulher. No entanto, em mulheres grávidas, quando há alterações na composição microbiana do canal vaginal, pode ocorrer a prolife...
The aim of this in vitro study was to assess the root dentin demineralization caused by a microcosm biofilm model that has been exposed to sucrose in different ways. Materials and Methods: Saliva of two volunteers was inoculated into an artificial medium for biofilm growth and dentin blocks were immersed...
The purpose of this research study was to develop 5-fluorouracil compression coated tablets by using biodegradable polysaccharide polymer locust bean gum (LBG) and hydroxyl propyl methyl cellulose (HPMC) as coating materials. The fast disintegrating core tablets containing 50 mg of 5-fluorouracil were co...
A new trend in cosmetic formulations is the use of biotechnological raw materials as the polysaccharides from Klebsiella pneumoniae, which are supposed to enhance cell renewal, improve skin hydration and micro-relief. Botanical extracts of Myrtus communis leaves contain different sugars, which may provid...
Foram realizados ensaios de curta e media duracao em animais e humanos visando avaliar o aproveitamento do amido do feijao em relacao a outras fontes de carboidratos complexos, de consumo habitual da populacao brasileira. Em animais, o aumento da glicose plasmatica decorrente da ingestao de diferentes fo...
O objetivo deste trabalho é o de realizar um estudo histoquímico de glicans no citoplasma de fibroblastos, fibrócitos, substância intercelular e zon de edema do tecido de granulaçäo de feridas cutâneas, assim como analisar citofotometricamente o DNA nuclear de células foliculares tireoideanas de ...
