Anti-inflammatory activity of naringin and the biosynthesised naringenin by naringinase immobilized in microstructured materials in a model of DSS-induced colitis in mice

A great number of antioxidants are naturally present in citrus juice, being responsible for their potentially protective action against inflammation. Naringin, a bitter compound, in citrus, is hydrolysed by naringinase into tasteless naringenin and to rhamnose and glucose. The aim of this study was...
