Journal ArticleDOI
Phytoremediation: A Promising Approach for Revegetation of Heavy Metal-Polluted Land
An Yan,Yamin Wang,Swee Ngin Tan,Mohamed Lokman Mohd Yusof,Subhadip Ghosh,Subhadip Ghosh,Zhong Chen,Zhong Chen +7 more
TL;DR: The mechanisms of how heavy metals are taken up, translocated, and detoxified in plants are described and the strategies applied to improve the efficiency of phytostabilization and phytoextraction are focused on, including the application of genetic engineering, microbe-assisted and chelate-assisted approaches.
Journal ArticleDOI
The Chemical Composition and Biological Properties of Coconut (Cocos nucifera L.) Water
TL;DR: This review attempts to summarise and evaluate the chemical composition and biological properties of coconut water.
Journal ArticleDOI
Pressurized hot water extraction (PHWE).
TL;DR: With some modifications, a scaled-up PHWE could extract a higher amount of desirable compounds from solid and powdered samples such as plant and food materials, which can be a potential lead for drug discovery or development of disease-resistant food crops.
Journal ArticleDOI
Silica sol-gel immobilized amperometric biosensor for hydrogen peroxide
Juan Li,Swee Ngin Tan,Hailin Ge +2 more
TL;DR: An amperometric enzyme electrode for hydrogen peroxide was developed via easy and effective enzyme immobilization using the sol-gel technique in this article, which comprises horseradish peroxidase (HRP) immobilized in the silica solgel matrix on a carbon paste electrode.
Journal ArticleDOI
Antioxidant flavonoids from leaves of Polygonum hydropiper L.
Zhao Feng Peng,Dieter Strack,Alfred Baumert,R. Subramaniam,Ngoh Khang Goh,Tet Fatt Chia,Swee Ngin Tan,Lian Sai Chia +7 more
TL;DR: Evaluation of the antioxidative activity, conducted in vitro, by using electron spin resonance (ESR) and ultraviolet visible (UV-vis) spectrophotometric assays, showed that these isolated flavonoids possess strong antioxidative capabilities.
