Research on natural and bioactive compounds is increasingly focused on their effects on human health, but there are unexpectedly few studies evaluating the relationship between climate and natural antioxidants. The aim of this study was analyze the biological role of six different Brassica vegetables (Brassica oleracea L. and Brassica rapa L.) as a natural source of antioxidant compounds. The a...

many studies indicate that oxidative stress is involved in the pathophysiology of neurodegenerative diseases. oxidative stress can induce neuronal damages, modulate intracellular signaling and ultimately leads to neuronal death by apoptosis or necrosis. to review antioxidants preventive effects on oxidative stress and neurodegenerative diseases we accumulated data from international medical jou...

compounds derived from lipid oxidation endangering human health and lead to cardiovascular disease and cancer. the addition of antioxidants is effective in retarding the oxidation of lipids and lipid containing foods. due to the toxicological effects of synthetic antioxidants, decrease their use and replacing them with natural antioxidants. this study investigates antioxidant effect of pimpinel...

A mesoporous silica nanoparticle-based intracellular cysteine delivery system that could be induced and regulated by cell-produced natural antioxidants was synthesized.

Phenolic compounds are secondary plant metabolites known to be one of the most important sources natural antioxidants in human diet [...]

An amperometric cytochrome c-based electrode was developed and applied to the quantification of the scavenging capacity of antioxidants. The enzymatic biosensor was constructed by covalently immobilizing both cyt c and XOD on a mercaptoundecanoic acid/mercaptoundecanol mixed SAMmodified screen-printed gold electrode. The concentration which induces a 50% inhibition of the superoxide level (IC50...

Aim: Reactive oxygen species induce oxidative stress that may contribute to endothelial dysfunction. In addition to endogen antioxidants, adding antioxidants to diet has been used to reduce oxidative-stress-induced endothelial dysfunction. Resveratrol is a natural phytoalexin which has many eff ects including antioxidant activity. Th e aim of this study was to investigate whether resveratrol co...

      Butyl-hydroxytoluene (BHT) is one of the major synthetic antioxidants with a wide range usage. Replacement of artificial antioxidants with natural antioxidants is highly considered. In this research, the antioxidant activity of Juniperus excelsa was investigated by using reducing power, DPPH radical scavenging and inhibition of lipid peroxidation. Also, the amounts of phenolic an...
