Sugar cane extract: A treatment for atherosclerosis disease?
Authors
Abstract:
Introduction: Sugar cane is a giant plant of grain products. Regarding the benefits of the use of medications with herbal origin, in the present study the impact of sugar cane extract on atherosclerosis and LDL-c and HDL-c in the serum of hypercholesterolemic rabbits was studied. Materials and methods: 24 adult male New Zealand rabbits race with an average weight of 2 kg were classified into four groups: the control group had a normal diet, Sham group and the 1 , 2 experimental group were cholesteroled with 2% high cholesterol regime and received drug solvent, sugar cane extract with 3.7 and 7.4 mg/kg doses as an oral treatment per day, respectively . After eight weeks of treatment, Blood were collected and subjected for measuring of LDL-C and HDL-c. For histological studies, Aorta was removed and was fixed in formalin %10. SPSS with ANOVA was applied for data analysis. Results: The results demonstrated treatment via sugar cane extract with 3.7 and 7.4 mg/kg per day, significant reduction in LDL-c and significant increase in HDL-c, in compare with Sham group, was occurred. In addition, histological examination showed that treatment by 3.7 and 7.4 mg/kg per day of Sugar cane extract (the experimental groups 1, 2, respectively), prevented atheroma plaques. Conclusion: Sugar cane extract may be effective in reducing the amount of LDL-c and increasing HDL-c and prevents the formation of atheroma plaques.

full textHistological intestinal recovery in chickens refed dietary sugar cane extract.
Sugar cane extract (SCE), the residue after removing glucose, fructose, and sucrose from sugar cane juice, has growth-promoting, antistress, and immunostimulation effects. The objective of this study was to investigate the effects of refeeding dietary SCE on recovery of BW and intestinal histology after withdrawing feed from chickens. Forty-eight male Sanuki Cochin chickens were assigned random...

Steam injection for power and efficiency augmentation in aeroderivative gas turbines has been commercially established for natural gas-fired cogeneration since 1980. Steam-injected gas turbines fired with coal and biomass are being developed. A performance and economic assessment of biomass integratedgasifier steam-injected gas turbine (BIGISTIG) cogeneration systems is carried out here. A deta...
full textLeaf Temperatures of Sugar Cane.
Since the results in the literature are at considerable variance regarding leaf temperatures with reference to the surrounding air temperature, the writer thought it would be of interest to check some leaf temperatures in a different section of the country from those previously reported. The investigations of CURTIS (2) were performed at Berkeley and Riverside, California, and those of CLUM (1)...

Alkaline oxidation pretreatment was developed for spruce, birch and sugar cane bagasse. The reaction was carried out in alkaline water solution under 10 bar oxygen pressure and at mild reaction temperature of 120–140 C. Most of the lignin was solubilised by the alkaline oxidation pretreatment and an easily hydrolysable carbohydrate fraction was obtained. After 72 h hydrolysis with a 10 FPU/g en...
