The present invention relates to a Bifidobacterium longum probiotic for use to improve fermentability of a plant fibre during gastro-intestinal tract passage in a subject, wherein said plant fibre has an insoluble fraction of between 40 to 80% (w/w).

A method for extraction, in which an extraction agent is used for dissolving at least one extraction material out of a substance. The extraction agent includes fatty acid ethyl ester and/or fatty acid methyl ester. In one embodiment the extraction agent is an omega-3 and/or omega-6 fatty acid, preferably EPA, DHA, DPA, ETA, 21:5n3 and/or SDA. In one embodiment the extraction agent includes at least 500 mg/g, preferably at least 700 mg/g of the fatty acid ethyl ester and/or of the fatty acid methyl ester. Expediently, the mixture of substances is a plant material, preferably hemp, and the extraction material is a cannabinoid, preferably CBD and/or THC.

The present disclosure relates to a method for producing a purified cannabaceae biomass extract, wherein a crude alcoholic cannabaceae biomass extract comprising at least two cannabinoid compounds in an alcoholic solvent is circulating through a powdered layer of activated carbon and the purified cannabaceae biomass extract is recovered with a ratio of cannabinoid compounds in the purified cannabaceae biomass extract is higher than the ratio of the cannabinoid compounds in the crude alcoholic cannabaceae biomass extract.

The present disclosure relates to a pharmaceutical composition for preventing, treating or ameliorating inflammatory bowel disease, containing, as an active ingredient, a specific solvent fraction obtained from Saururus chinensis; and a preparation method therefor.

Calcium hydroxide nanoparticles (Ca(OH).sub.2NPs) synthesized using carob pulp extract may be hexagonal nanoparticles with a diameter ranging from about 31.22 nm to about 81.22 nm. The Ca(OH).sub.2NPs may be synthesized by heating ethylene glycol, adding calcium hydroxide to the ethylene glycol to provide a first mixture, heating the first mixture, adding a carob pulp aqueous extract to the first mixture to form a second mixture, heating the second mixture, adding sodium hydroxide (NaOH) to the second mixture to form a third mixture, heating the third mixture, resting the third mixture at room temperature after heating, centrifuging the third mixture, collecting a colloid sediment, extracting any unwanted contaminants from the colloid sediment, and drying the colloid sediment to obtain Ca(OH).sub.2NPs.

The present invention relates to the technical field of foods and additives that are derived from edible plants. Particularly, the present invention relates to a method for obtaining a product rich in antioxidants, dietary fiber and other nutrients from byproducts of edible plants such as dehydrated pulps and juices derived from fruits and vegetables, obtaining thus a first liquid product (first liquid phase), a second liquid product (second liquid phase), and a first and second solid phases, all of them with multiple beneficial health properties. One of the main effects observed when an individual consumes these products, is a normalization in the levels of triglycerides, total cholesterol, and HDL, and the body weight of this individual is maintained even when under a regime of fat diet.
