This invention provides a novel health food which is effective in prevention and treatment of life-style related diseases in organs in the circulatory system, such as hypertension, cerebral infarction, myocardial infarction etc. by improving blood fluidity. Phospholipid components or mineral components are collected from seaweeds of the genus Porphyra and/or seaweeds of the genus Undaria and then formed into a health food improving blood fluidity. This health food has an improving action on blood fluidity, and is thus effective in prevention and treatment of life-style related diseases in organs in the circulatory system, such as hypertension, cerebral infarction, myocardial infarction etc.

Disclosed are methods and products such as wet wipes and absorbents capable of providing a skin health benefit when utilized in the intended fashion. More specifically, the products described herein comprise an agent, such as a botanical extract, which is capable of increasing the activity of sphingomyelinase according to a Sphingomyelinase Activity Screening Test and/or decreasing the activity of ceramidase according to a Ceramidase Activity Screening Test. By increasing the activity of sphingomyelinase and/or decreasing the activity of ceramidase, the agents in combination with the products described herein are able to maintain or increase the level of ceramides in the skin leading to improved skin health.

A pullulan-free edible film composition for oral cleansing, breath freshening, and anti-microbial benefits includes a film forming agent and cinnamaldehyde. In a treatment process, effective amounts of cinnamaldehyde is delivered to the oral cavity by the edible film for convenient oral cleansing and breath freshening benefits. A method of making the pullulan-free edible film composition includes forming an aqueous solution of film forming agents and cinnamaldehyde and drying the aqueous solution to form a dry edible film.
摘要:
A method of producing a processed kava product involves using an extraction solvent, such as liquid CO2, to preferentially extract different kavalactones from the source material at different rates. By controlling the extraction parameters and stopping the extraction before all of the kavalactones have been extracted or allowing the extracted kavalactones to be preferentially precipitated in one or more collection environments, a processed kava product can be produced that has a kavalactone distribution profile that can differ substantially from that of the source material. As a result, roots from a less desirable kava cultivar can be used to produce a processed kava product which has a kavalactone distribution profile that is similar to that of a highly desired cultivar. The kava paste can be further processed to produce a dry flowable powder suitable for use in, e.g., a tableting formula. A rapid dissolve tablet formulation for use in the delivery of kavalactones and other botanicals is also disclosed.

摘要:
A method of producing separated lipid-rich lipid/protein complex and native proteins from oil seeds, by adding a substance having the ability to aggregate lipids with proteins to a water extract of oil seeds, sedimenting or floating a lipid/protein complex having a lipid content of 45% or more as an aggregate, and recovering it for separation from native proteins.

An extract with antiviral activity including a mixture of extracts from Spatoglossum asperum., Padina tetrastromatica, Sargassum tenerrimum, and Stoechospermum marginatum. Also, a process for preparation of the extracts, and a method of treatment using the extracts.
摘要:
A method and apparatus for preparing uniform carbon-13 labeled biomass using a water soluble carbon-13 labeled carbon source, such as a null13Cnull-bicarbonate or null13Cnull-carbonate salt, is disclosed. The biomass is prepared in one or more sterile carboys filled with growth medium, in which acidity, oxygen, and biomass density are carefully monitored and maintained. By using a solid, water-soluble null13Cnull-bicarbonate or null13Cnull-carbonate salt as the sole carbon source, a biomass is provided which is uniformly and efficiently labeled with carbon-13. This method and apparatus is particularly useful for the growth of an edible carbon-13 labeled algal mass, with Spirulina platensis being a specific alga species. The biomass may be prepared in conformance with FDA current good manufacturing practice regulations, and may be harvested and formed into lyophilized bulk drug powder which may be further processed into various drug product forms which are useful for diagnostic tests or in pharmaceutical compositions.
