todays, essential oils from aromatic plants have been qualified as natural antioxidants and proposed as potential substitutes of synthetic antioxidants in food products. in this research chemical compositions and antioxidant activity of artimisia essential oil on oxidative stability of frying oil were analyzed. essential oil was extracted by hydro distillation and its chemical composition was d...

Mechanistic studies of the enolization of 2-methylcyclohexanone mediated by lithium hexamethyldisilazide (LiHMDS; TMS2NLi) in toluene and toluene/amine mixtures are described. NMR spectroscopic studies of LiHMDS/ketone mixtures in toluene reveal the ketone-complexed cyclic dimer (TMS2NLi)2(ketone). Rate studies using in situ IR spectroscopy show the enolization proceeds via a dimer-based transi...

Elite athletes and coaches are in a constant search for training methods and nutritional strategies to support training and recovery efforts that may ultimately maximize athletes' performance. Recently, there has been a re-emerging interest in the role of ketone bodies in exercise metabolism, with considerable media speculation about ketone body supplements being routinely used by professional ...

BACKGROUND Raspberry ketone is the primary aroma compound found in raspberries and naturally derived raspberry ketone is a valuable flavoring agent. The economic incentives for the production of raspberry ketone, combined with the very poor yields from plant tissue, therefore make this compound an excellent target for heterologous production in synthetically engineered microbial strains. METH...

OBJECTIVES Blood ketone (beta-hydroxybutyrate) measurements are suggested instead of urine ketone (acetoacetate) measurements in the diagnosis of diabetic ketoacidosis. Urine ketone examination is difficult and time consuming, and may result in an incorrect interpretation. Studies performed in emergency departments on blood ketones are limited. Our objective is to compare urine ketones and capi...

Monocarboxylates have been implicated in the control of energy homeostasis. Among them, the putative role of ketone bodies produced notably during high-fat diet (HFD) has not been thoroughly explored. In this study, we aimed to determine the impact of a specific rise in cerebral ketone bodies on food intake and energy homeostasis regulation. A carotid infusion of ketone bodies was performed on ...

It is now well established that ketone bodies (acetoacetate and D-3-hydroxybutyrate) are metabolized by many mammalian tissues and that the rate of utilization is mainly dependent on their availability in the circulation. The aim in this contribution is to summarize briefly the pathways of ketone-body metabolism and to discuss the role of ketone bodies m various tissues. For a detailed review o...

one series of half-analogues of michler’s ketone containing one or more terminal methoxysubstituents with variable tertiary amino groups have been used in this study. nmr spectralresults for the parent ketones confirm earlier findings that ortho proton shifts are apparentlyindependent from steric effects in derivatives of michler’s ketone because the ring current andcarbonyl-induced shifts are ...
