  • Tiliacora Triandra) Gum on Gelation of Waxy Rice Flour
    Current Applied Science and Technology Vol. 18 No. 1 Jan.-Apr. 2018 Effects of Yanang (Tiliacora triandra) Gum on Gelation of Waxy Rice Flour Wisutthana Samutsri* and Sujittra Thimtuad Department of Food Science and Technology, Faculty of Science and Technology, Phranakhon Rajabhat University, Bangkok, Thailand Received: 12 July 2017, Revised: 20 March 2018, Accepted: 28 March 2018 Abstract Crude hydrocolloid extract has been prepared from the leaves of Yanang (Tiliacora triandra). This research studied effects of Yanang gum on pasting and textureal properties of blending of waxy rice flour. Rapid visco analysis (RVA) results showed that the ratio of Yanang extract to water of 1:3 and 1:4 (w/w) significantly decreased the trough, breakdown, and final viscosities of the waxy rice flour whereas the peak viscosities, peak time, and pasting temperatures of the blends were increased. Textural study revealed that the addition of crude Yanang gum enhanced more hardness and springiness of the blending gels than those of waxy rice flour gel, whereas cohesiveness was less affected. These results would be useful as a guideline for developing frozen starch-based food products containing crude Yanang gum. Keywords: Yanang, hydrocolloid, waxy rice flour, pasting properties, textural properties, RVA 1. Introduction Retrogradation is a term used for changes that occur in gelatinized starch from disordered state to a more ordered crystalline state and the tendency of starch pastes to thicken and to form stiff gels [1]. Among the cereal, rice is one of the most utilized grains in many forms. Rice flour does not have good handing properties, thus the incorporation of curtain additives as hydrocolloids may be an approach to achieve the desirable properties.

  • Hypoglycemic Activity of Leaf Extracts from Tiliacora Triandra in Normal and Streptozotocin-Induced Diabetic Rats
    Pharmacogn J. 2017; 9(5): 621-625 A Multifaceted Journal in the field of Natural Products and Pharmacognosy Original Article www.phcogj.com | www.journalonweb.com/pj | www.phcog.net Hypoglycemic Activity of Leaf Extracts from Tiliacora triandra in Normal and Streptozotocin-Induced Diabetic Rats Teeraporn Katisart1*, Surapong Rattana2 ABSTRACT Background: Tiliacora triandra is a common plant found in southeast Asian countries. It is traditionally used as anti-pyrogenic agent. Objective: The present study was aimed to investi- gate the hypoglycemic activities leaf extracts from Tiliacora triandra (TTE) in normal and strep- tozotocin-induced diabetic rats. Methods: TTE was prepared and daily and orally administered at dose of 300 mg/kg b.w. to the rats for 8 weeks. The body weight and blood glucose level were measured weekly. At the end of the experiments, blood samples were collected from cardiac puncture and analyzed for serum insulin levels. The pancreatic tissues were stained by hematoxylin-eosin for histo-pathological investigations. Results: Normal and diabetic rats treated with TTE and glibenclamide tended to have an increased body weight. TTE significantly decreased the blood glucose level by 25.01 ± 19.77% in week 3 in diabetic rats and similar to that of glibenclamide group (27.01 ± 11.89%). However, the extracts slightly decreased the blood glucose level in normal rats by 9.48 ± 2.14% in week 2. TTE significantly increased serum insulin level by 21.63 ± 1.39 IU/mL in diabetic rats compared to the controls (10.63 ± 0.37 IU/mL) but not in normal rats. In additions, TTE activated the regeneration of pancreatic Islets of Langerhans in diabetic rats which in turn stimulated insulin secretion.

  • Development of Yanang (Tiliacora Triandra) Powder Using Freeze Drying in Use for Sherbet
    DEVELOPMENT OF YANANG (TILIACORA TRIANDRA) POWDER USING FREEZE DRYING IN USE FOR SHERBET. Thanida Chuacharoen Faculty of Science and Technology, Suan Sunandha Rajabhat University, Dusit, Bangkok, Thailand, E-Mail: [email protected] ABSTRACT Yanang powder is a functional ingredient that can be used for enhancing the nutritional value of frozen dessert products. In this study the effect of fortification with different concentrations of freeze-dried Yanang powder on physicochemical properties, functionality, microbial risk and sensory quality of sherbet with 10%, 20% and 30% of Yanang powder was investigated. Total solids content and pH values of the samples were found to increase with increased level of Yanang powder addition. Average overrun of sherbet products was decreased when the concentration of freeze-dried Yanang powder increased but the sherbet with fresh Yanang extract had overrun no significant difference from a control. Hardness and viscosity increased but melting rate decreased when the concentration of freeze-dried Yanang powder increased. The highest amount of Yanang powder added into sherbet presented the highest TPC value corresponding with higher DPPH and FRAP values which made the sherbet a good promising antioxidant product. The addition of Yanang powder affected appearance/color, texture, flavor, foreign taste and overall acceptability of sherbet samples. Based on sensory evaluation, the best amount of freeze-dried Yanang powder fortified in sherbet was at 10% compared with fresh Yanang extract at the same level (10%). Keywords: Antioxidant activity, Freeze-dried powder, Sherbet, Yanang INTRODUCTION Consumers’ trends nowadays prefer foods prepared with low in fat, more natural antioxidants, and free of synthetic additives.

Diels (or yanang) leaf juice were studied. The results indicated the most appropriate proportion of yanang leaf juice for making Thai layered dessert was 5% since this proportion received the highest levels of acceptance. The physical characteristics analysis revealed that the hardness and springiness values of Thai layered dessert with more yanang leaf juice added were significantly lower (p≤0.05). The L* and b* color values were also significantly lower when more yanang leaf juice was added. Conversely, the a* value of the desserts increased when more yanang leaf juice was added. A comparison between the nutritional values found in Thai layered dessert with the yanang leaf juice and those found in such Thai layered dessert with pandan leaf juice added revealed that these two desserts contained different amounts of carbohydrate and calcium (p≤0.05). The Thai layered dessert with added yanang leaf juice contained 2.85 mg of calcium /100 g, which was higher than the amount of calcium found in the Thai layered dessert with added pandan leaf juice (p≤0.05).

    Kasetsart J. (Nat. Sci.) 37 : 47 - 51 (2003) Isolation of Anti-malarial Active Compound from Yanang (Tiliacora triandra Diels) Chalerm Saiin and Sutthatip Markmee ABSTRACT Malaria remains to be one of the serious problems in tropical countries because of the increase in antimalarial drug resistance. This investigation was to study the extraction of bioactive compounds with anti-malarial activity from Yanang (Tiliacora triandra Diels) root. The dried root was extracted with chloroform : methanol : ammonium hydroxide mixture (50:50:1). Further isolation and purification of the crude extract using column chromatography and crystallization techniques provided two pure alkaloid compounds: tiliacorinine (I) and tiliacorine (II) with 0.0082 and 0.0029 percent yield, respectively. Structures of I and II were confirmed by spectroscopy techniques and compared with reference data. Key words: anti-malarial, Yanang, Tiliacora triandra Diels, tiliacorinine, tiliacorine INTRODUCTION been found and isolated by using a combination of chromatography and counter-current distribution Today malaria is found throughout the in Tiliacora species, Tiliacora racemosa Colebr tropical and sub-tropical regions of the world and (Anjaneyulu et al., 1969) and their in vitro causes more than 300 million acute illnesses and at antimalarial activity against Plasmodium least one million deaths annually. Moreover, the falciparum have been studied (Thaweephol et al., increase of drug resistance of Plasmodium 1987). The isolation of tiliacorinine and tiliacorine falciparum remains to be serious problems (WHO, from T. triandra roots by column of ion exchange 1998).
