Providing storage is as stated on the product vial and the vial is kept tightly sealed, the product can be stored for up to
24 months(2-8C).
Wherever possible, you should prepare and use solutions on the same day. However, if you need to make up stock solutions in advance, we recommend that you store the solution as aliquots in tightly sealed vials at -20C. Generally, these will be useable for up to two weeks. Before use, and prior to opening the vial we recommend that you allow your product to equilibrate to room temperature for at least 1 hour.
Need more advice on solubility, usage and handling? Please email to: service@chemfaces.com
The packaging of the product may have turned upside down during transportation, resulting in the natural compounds adhering to the neck or cap of the vial. take the vial out of its packaging and gently shake to let the compounds fall to the bottom of the vial. for liquid products, centrifuge at 200-500 RPM to gather the liquid at the bottom of the vial. try to avoid loss or contamination during handling.

Application of Lactobacillus amylovorus DSM19280 in gluten-free sourdough bread to improve the microbial shelf life.[Pubmed:
25583336 ]
METHODS AND RESULTS:
The present study investigated the antifungal activity of Lactobacillus amylovorus DSM19280 as a starter culture for gluten-free quinoa sourdough bread under pilot-plant conditions to extend the microbial shelf life. Challenge tests against environmental moulds were conducted and a negative control with non-antifungal strain, L. amylovorus DSM20531(T), as well as a chemically acidified and a non-acidified control were included. Organic acid production, antifungal metabolites, carbohydrates changes during fermentation and bread quality were compared to wheat counterparts. The application of quinoa sourdough fermented with the antifungal L. amylovorus DSM19280 extended the mould free shelf life by 4 days compared to the non-acidified control. No significant difference in lactic acid production was found between the lactobacilli strains. HPLC-UV/DAD was used to quantify antifungal compounds. The concentration of 4-hydroxyphenyllactic acid, Phloretic acid, 3-phenyllactic acid and hydroferulic acid were significantly higher (P < 0.01) in the quinoa sourdough fermented with the antifungal L. amylovorus DSM19280 when compared to the non-antifungal strain, thus indicating their contribution to the antifungal activity. Evaluation of bread characteristics such as specific volume or crumb hardness, revealed that the addition of L. amylovorus fermented sourdough also improved bread quality.
CONCLUSIONS:
In conclusion, the combination of quinoa flour fermented with the antifungal L. amylovorus DSM19280 serves a great potential biopreservative ingredient to produce gluten-free breads with an improved nutritional value, better bread quality and higher safety due to an extended shelf life, and therefore meeting consumer needs for good quality and preservatives-free food products.

Cytotoxic and anti-metastatic activities of phenolic compounds from Dendrobium ellipsophyllum.[Pubmed:
25368260]
Phenolic compounds isolated from Dendrobium ellipsophyllum Tang & Wang (Orchidaceae) have been shown to possess potential pharmacological activity; however, their anticancer as well as anti-metastasis activities are largely unknown. The aim of the present study was to isolate active compounds from D. ellipsophyllum and to explore the possible effects of phenolic compounds isolated from the plant for cytotoxic as well as anti-metastatic properties.
METHODS AND RESULTS:
The compounds were isolated by using chromatographic techniques including silica gel and Sephadex LH20. Each of the isolates was evaluated for their cytotoxicity on H292 human lung cancer cell lines by 2,3-Bis(2-methoxy-4-nitro-5-sulfophenyl)-2H-tetrazolium-5-carboxanilide assay. The cytotoxic compounds were further evaluated for apoptosis-inducing and anoikis-sensitizing effects.
Ten phenolic compounds were isolated, 5,7-dihydroxy-chromen-4-one (1:); 4,5-dihydroxy-2,3-dimethoxy-9,10-dihydrophenanthrene (2:); moscatilin (3:), 4,4'-dihydroxy-3,5-dimethoxybibenzyl (4:); 4,5,4'-trihydroxy-3,3'-dimethoxybibenzyl (5:); (2S)-homoeriodictyol (6:); (2S)-eriodictyol (7:); chrysoeriol (8:); Phloretic acid (9:); and luteolin (10:). Compounds 4:, 5:, 8: and 10: exhibited appreciable cytotoxic activity with 50% inhibitory concentration values less than 250 μM. These compounds also showed potential apoptosis induction and anoikis-sensitizing effect at non-toxic concentrations.
CONCLUSIONS:
Compounds 4:, 5:, 8: and 10: are responsible for cytotoxic and anti-metastatic activities of D. ellipsophyllum.
