Salvia Hispanica L

Chia (Salvia hispanica L.) have growing research interest globally which determined it as functional food which acts as biochemical targets for the treatment of various cardiovascular disorder with reduced toxicological value. It is worldwide popular because of its nutritional, bioactive, and phytochemical compounds value, used as an ingredient in many food industries due to its high dietary fibre content value. Their consumption rate is higher in past years due to the presence of omega-3 fatty acids, proteins, amino acids (essential), and a good source of bioactive peptides. Many researchers focussed on α-linolenic acid which is the effective pioneer of maintenance of functioning of polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs). Chia seed oil is investigated on different screening models either clinically or pre-clinically and demonstrate the levels of the serum lipid profile, diabetic severity changes. The review of the literature highlights the miracle values of the different nutritional composition, antioxidant values, phytochemical constituents, and the role of these in treatment of various cardiovascular disorder such as hypertension, inflammation, atherosclerosis, diabetes. The review highlights antioxidants values, which change the enzyme activities of the liver, blood. There is need to more focussed on the mechanistic approaches on the pharmacological aspects of the chia seeds with respective biological compounds in either clinical trial and animal screening trial before applied to it as a functional food for the therapeutic action in the treatment of diseases. Keywords: Salvia hispanica L. (Chia), Antioxidants, Biological properties of Salvia hispanica L. (Chia).

Plant Pollen

The nutritional composition of food is often complex as resources contain a plethora of different chemical compounds, some of them more, some less meaningful to consumers. Plant pollen, a major food source for bees, is of particular importance as it comprises nearly all macro- and micronutrients required by bees for successful development and reproduction. However, perceiving and evaluating all nutrients may be tedious and impair quick foraging decisions. It is therefore likely that nutrient perception is restricted to specific nutrients or nutrient groups. To better understand the role of taste in pollen quality assessment by bees we investigated nutrient perception in the Western honey bee, Apis mellifera. We tested if the bees were able to perceive concentration differences in amino acids, fatty acids, and sterols, three highly important nutrient groups in pollen, via antennal reception. By means of proboscis extension response (PER) experiments with chemotactile stimulation, we could show that honey bees can distinguish between pollen differing in amino and fatty acid concentration, but not in sterol concentration. Bees were also not able to perceive sterols when presented alone. Our finding suggests that assessment of pollen protein and lipid content is prioritized over sterol content.
