Several polyphenol compounds commonly found in plant foods provide health benefits that promote their applications in food and pharmaceutical fields. The co-loading of proteins can improve the biol. activity and synergy of combined polyphenols. Herein, multi-spectroscopic techniques and mol. docking were employed to investigate the interactions of native/heat treated β-lactoglobulin (β-LG/H-β-LG) with (-)-epicatechin gallate (ECG) and/or piceatannol (PIC). Furthermore, the synergistic antioxidant activity and cytotoxicity of ECG and PIC were demonstrated. The loading of β-LG/H-β-LG protected the antioxidant activity of ECG and PIC in the delivery systems and enhanced their cytotoxicity, stability, and bioaccessibility. Compared to the corresponding complexes, the nanoparticles of β-LG/H-β-LG had a greater impact on the functional properties and synergistic effects of ECG and PIC. The exptl. results may provide a theor. basis for the practical application of ECG and PIC co-loaded by H-β-LG, particularly H-β-LG nanoparticles in the food and pharmaceutical industries. In the experiment, the researchers used many compounds, for example, (E)-4-(3,5-Dihydroxystyryl)benzene-1,2-diol (cas: 10083-24-6Electric Literature of C14H12O4).
(E)-4-(3,5-Dihydroxystyryl)benzene-1,2-diol (cas: 10083-24-6) belongs to alcohols. Alkyl halides are often synthesized from alcohols, in effect substituting a halogen atom for the hydroxyl group. Tertiary alcohols cannot be oxidized at all without breaking carbon-carbon bonds, whereas primary alcohols can be oxidized to aldehydes or further oxidized to carboxylic acids.Electric Literature of C14H12O4
