Effect of Soybean or Linseed Oil With RRR-D-α-Tocopherol or Dl-α-Tocopherol Acetate on Quality Characteristics and Fatty Acid Profile of Turkey Meat

A Comparison of Natural (D-α-tocopherol) and Synthetic (DL-α-tocopherol Acetate) Vitamin E Supplementation on the Growth Performance, Meat Quality and Oxidative Status of Broilers.

The present study was conducted to compare the supplementation of natural (D-α-tocopherol) and synthetic (DL-α-tocopherol acetate) vitamin E on the growth performance, meat quality, muscular antioxidant capacity and genes expression related to oxidative status of broilers. A total of 144 1 day-old Arbor Acres broiler chicks were randomly allocated into 3 groups with 6 replicates of 8 birds each...

The naturally occurring α-tocopherol stereoisomer RRR-α-tocopherol is predominant in the human infant brain.

α-Tocopherol is the principal source of vitamin E, an essential nutrient that plays a crucial role in maintaining healthy brain function. Infant formula is routinely supplemented with synthetic α-tocopherol, a racaemic mixture of eight stereoisomers with less bioactivity than the natural stereoisomer RRR-α-tocopherol. α-Tocopherol stereoisomer profiles have not been previously reported in the h...

Consequences of the Combined α-tocopherol, Ascorbic Acid and α-lipoic Acid on the Glutathione, Cholesterol and Fatty Acid Composition in Muscle and Liver of Diabetic Rats

The Synergistic Effect of Daidzein and α-Tocopherol or Ascorbic Acid on Microsome and LDL Oxidation

Wang H., Martin M.W., Yin S. (2010): The synergistic effect of daidzein and α-tocopherol or ascorbic acid on microsome and LDL oxidation. Czech J. Food Sci., 28: 385–391. Isoflavone daidzein brings potential health benefits. Its antioxidant properties are considered to be responsible in part for its protective effects. We investigated the antioxidant effects of daidzein and its interactive effe...
