Inactivation of the Enveloped Bacteriophage ø6 by Butylated Hydroxytoluene and Butylated Hydroxyanisole

Hepatoprotective effect of food preservatives (butylated hydroxyanisole, butylated hydroxytoluene) on carbon tetrachloride-induced hepatotoxicity in rat

Carbon tetrachloride (CCl4), a hepatotoxic agent is widely used to study the toxic mechanisms in experimental animals. This study was carried out to establish the hepatoprotective measures of food preservative antioxidants butylated hydroxyanisole and butylated hydroxytolune (BHA, BHT) when mixed with food towards carbon tetrachloride (CCl4) intoxication (230 mg/ kg b wt/rat/day) in rat. Bioche...

Intake of butylated hydroxyanisole and butylated hydroxytoluene and stomach cancer risk: results from analyses in the Netherlands Cohort Study.

Both carcinogenic and anticarcinogenic properties have been reported for the synthetic antioxidants butylated hydroxyanisole (BHA) and butylated hydroxytoluene (BHT). The association between dietary intake of BHA and BHT and stomach cancer risk was investigated in the Netherlands Cohort Study (NLCS) that started in 1986 among 120,852 men and women aged 55 to 69 years. A semi-quantitative food f...

Different Modifying Response of Butylated Hydroxyanisole, Butylated Hydroxytoluene, and Other Antioxidants in A'jjV-Dibutylnitrosamine Esophagus and Forestomach Carcinogenesis of Rats1

The modifying effects of antioxidants were examined in a carcinogenesis system after \, V-ililnilvlniinisamiiic treatment. Male F344 rats were given 0.05% V, Vdilnilylnhrosarnmiin their drinking water for 4 wk and then treated with basal diet containing 2% butylated hydroxyanisole (BHA), 1% butylated hydroxytoluene (BHT) with 7 ppm vitamin K, 0.8% ethoxyquin, 5% sodium L-ascorbate, 57. sodium e...

Inhibition of norepinephrine uptake into synaptic vesicles by butylated hydroxytoluene.

The peroxidase-dependent activation of butylated hydroxyanisole and butylated hydroxytoluene (BHT) to reactive intermediates. Formation of BHT-quinone methide via a chemical-chemical interaction.

The food antioxidants butylated hydroxyanisole (BHA) and butylated hydroxytoluene (BHT) are shown to be metabolized to covalent binding intermediates and various other metabolites by prostaglandin H synthase and horseradish peroxidase. BHA was extensively metabolized by horseradish peroxidase (80% conversion of parent BHA into metabolites) resulting in the formation of three dimeric products. O...
