Outline of Final Research Achievements |
In this research project, 3D culture system monitoring multiple cell differentiation pathways has been established. Screening for bioactive food ingredients using this system has been conducted. As the result, 48 out of 96 food samples showed some kinds of activities. The most active food sample was selected for further study to isolate active substances. The isolation is at the final step currently. Structure elucidation of the bioactive subtances will be conducted in the nearest future.
