BACKGROUND Reactive oxygen species and particularly free radical induced lipid peroxidative tissue damage have been implicated in the pathogenesis of various renal diseases. Lipid peroxidation is assessed indirectly by the measurement of secondary products, such as malondialdehyde (MDA), using the widely employed thiobarbituric acid reactive substances (TBARS) method. However, this method lacks...

meat products, especially fish meat, are very susceptible to lipid oxidation and microbial spoilage. in this study, first, gas chromatography mass spectrometry (gc-ms) analysis of zataria multiflora essential oil (zeo) components was done and then two concentrations of zeo, (1% and 2%) and two concentrations of grape seed extract (gse), (0.5% and 1%) were used in carboxymethyl cellulose coating...

We have previously shown that beta-very low density lipoprotein (beta-VLDL) incubated with bovine aortic endothelial cells (ECs) is bound and internalized more readily by cultured rabbit aortic smooth muscle cells (SMCs) than is beta-VLDL incubated in the absence of ECs, resulting in enhanced accumulation of cholesterol. To investigate the mechanism by which this occurs, beta-VLDL from hypercho...

Malondialdehyde (MDA) is one of the most commonly reported biomarkers of lipid peroxidation in clinical studies. The reaction of thiobarbituric acid (TBA) with MDA to yield a pink chromogen attributable to an MDA-TBA₂ adduct is a common assay approach with products being quantified by ultraviolet-Vis assay as nonspecific TBA-reactive substances (TBARS) or chromatographically as MDA. The specifi...

Fortified dairy products appeal to a wide variety of consumers and have the potential to increase sales in the yogurt industry and help increase intake of long-chain n-3 fatty acids. The objectives of this study were to develop a strawberry yogurt containing microencapsulated salmon oil (MSO; 2% wt/vol) and evaluate its characteristics during 1 mo of storage. Unpurified salmon oil (USO) was pur...

the aim of this study was to compare the effects of olive leaf extracts and synthetic antioxidant bht at concentration of 1% at increase the shelf life of rainbow trout fillets in light salted and packed at 4±1 °c that index of peroxide (pv), free fatty acids (ffa), thiobarbituric acid (tba), humidity, ph and sensory evaluation of fillets of rainbow trout kept in the refrigerator at the time of...

in this study, the antioxidant activity and protective effects of purslane seed water-methanolic extract (pswme) in stabilizing soybean oil (sbo) were tested. dpph radical scavenging activity of pswme at different concentrations varied significantly (p< 0.05), ranging from 15.41% to 79.06%. total phenolic content in pswme was 121.09 mg gallic acid equivalent (gae) kg-1 dw. the protective effect...

background &amp; aim: when the level of free radicals is increased and also when both the enzymatic systems and low molecular antioxidants are not sufficient to protect the organism, it seems necessary to get antioxidants from external sources. this study aimed to evaluate the antioxidant potential of different parts of catharantus roseus experimental: the antioxidant potential of ethanol extra...

This study evaluated the ability of fennel extract to improve the quality of refrigerated minced silver carp over a period of 16 days. Minced silver carp were treated with fennel extract (0.5, 1 and 1.5% w/w), and beta-hydroxy toluene (BHT 200 ppm). The control and the treated fish samples were analyzed periodically (every 4 days) by chemical analysis (Peroxide value (PV), thiobarbituric acid (...
