The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of drying process preparations, solvent type, and different species of Prunus spp. (European, Japanese, and cherry plums) on bioactive properties (antioxidant, anti-lipid peroxidation, anti-tyrosinase, and anti-inflammatory activities) and rutin content. Leaves and fresh fruits of plums were drie...

Zea mays L. Poaceae stigma (corn silk, CS) is a byproduct of agricultural waste and is used as a traditional herb in many countries. CS is rich in chemical compounds known to benefit human health and is also a remedy for infectious diseases and has anti-proliferative effects on human cancer cell lines. In the present study, CS extract has been eval...

Surface bloom of Microcystis aeruginosa and M. wesenbergii occurs frequently in reservoirs and aquaculture ponds in Thailand. Previous studies showed the effectiveness of ultrasonic irradiation at sinking M. aeruginosa cells. This study 1) compared the efficiency of ultrasonic treatment at sinking M. aeruginosa and M. wesenbergii, 2) investigated t...

Surface cyanobacterial bloom causes deterioration of pond water and accumulation of toxins and musty odors (Geosmin & 2-methylisoborneol, MIB) in aquaculture activities. This study investigated the effectiveness of ultrasonic technology on Microcystis sp. surface scum settling, including microcystin (cyanotoxin) and musty odors degradation in pond...
