Xanthohumol, a chalcon derived from hops, inhibits hepatic inflammation and fibrosis

Publikationen

Xanthohumol, a chalcon derived from hops, inhibits hepatic inflammation and fibrosis Xanthohumol (XN) is a major prenylated chalcone found in hops, which is used to add bitterness and flavor to beer. In this study, we first investigated the effects of XN on hepatocytes and hepatic stellate cells (HSC), the central mediators of liver fibrogenesis. XN Xanthohumol, a chalcon derived from hops, inhibits hepatic inflammation and fibrosis

Extraction of Algae with Supercritical CO2 Introduction:The application of supercritical CO2 as solvent for the extraction of natural substances is state of the art. Since more than three decades NATECO2 produces extracts from hops for the brewing industry, degreases cocoa cake and decaffeinates black and green tea. But the effective and specific extraction technology with Extraction of Algae with Supercritical CO₂

CO₂ Applied to Commercial Extraction of Pepper: Performance and Economics

Publikationen

CO2 Applied to Commercial Extraction of Pepper: Performance and Economics Introduction: Pepper conjures flavour and piquancy into foodstuffs. The initiators are essential oils and spicy substances. Pepper contains some 1-4 % of oil and 5-10 % of piperine. As the solubility of the two substances in CO2 differ significantly, aroma and hot components have been CO₂ Applied to Commercial Extraction of Pepper: Performance and Economics
