Evaluation of Biotechnological Active Peptides Secreted by Saccharomyces cerevi...
Mauricio, Elisabete; Branco, Patricia; Araújo, Ana Luiza Barros; Roma-Rodrigues, Catarina; Lima, Katelene; Duarte, Maria Paula; Fernandes, AlexandraABSTRACT:Biotechnological active peptides are gaining interest in the cosmetics industry due to their antimicrobial, anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, and anti-collagenase (ACE) effects, as well as wound healing properties, making them suitable for cosmetic formulations. The antimicrobial activity of peptides (2–10 kDa) secreted by Saccharomyces cerevisiae Ethanol-Red was evaluated against dermal pathogens using ...
Exploring the Multifaceted Potential of a Peptide Fraction Derived from Sacchar...
Branco, Patricia; Mauricio, Elisabete; Costa, Ana; Ventura, Diogo; Roma-Rodrigues, Catarina; Duarte, Maria Paula; Fernandes, AlexandraABSTRACT: The rising demand for minimally processed, natural, and healthier food products has led to the search for alternative and multifunctional bioactive food components. Therefore, the present study focuses on the functional proprieties of a peptide fraction derived from Saccharomyces cerevisiae metabolism. The antimicrobial activity of the peptide fraction is evaluated against various foodborne pathogens,...
Supercritical fluid extracts with antioxidant and antimicrobial activities from...
Pereira, Paula; Bernardo-Gil, Maria Gabriela; Cebola, M. João; Mauricio, Elisabete; Romano, AnabelaSupercritical Fluid Extraction (SFE) was used to obtain myrtle leaf extracts, and to study the antioxidant capacity (AOC) and in vitro antimicrobial activity of those extracts. To optimize the SFE operational conditions, the response surface methodology (RSM) was adopted. The parameters studied were: pressure (P), within the range 10 to 30 MPa; temperature (T), between 35 C and 60 C and supercritical carbon dio...
