objective(s):a growing interest has recently been attracted towards the identification of plant-based medications including those with protective effects against cognitive impairment. sesamol has shown promising antioxidant and neuroprotective effects, therefore, we aimed to evaluate its therapeutic potential in epilepsy which is commonly associated with oxidative stress and cognitive impairmen...

Beef rounds aged for one, two, or three weeks after slaughtering were ground added with 0.05% ascorbic acid+0.01% α-tocopherol or 0.05% ascorbic acid+0.01% α-tocopherol+0.01% sesamol, placed on Styrofoam trays and wrapped with oxygen-permeable plastic film, and treated with electron beam irradiation at 0 or 2.5kGy. The meat samples were displayed under fluorescent light for 7d at 4°C. Color, li...

Irradiation significantly decreased the redness of ground beef (P < 0.05), and the visible color of beef changed from a bright red to a green/brown, depending on the age of meat. Addition of ascorbic acid (0.1%, wt/ wt) in ground beef prior to irradiation prevented color changes in irradiated beef, and the effect of ascorbic acid became greater as the age of meat or storage time after irradiati...

Antioksidan sistemleri gibi biyoaktif bile?enlerce zengin olan süt, sa?l?kl? bir beslenmenin vazgeçilmez ürünlerinden tanesidir. Süt, zararl? mikro-organizmalara kar?? do?al savunma sistemine sahiptir. Bu sistem, özellikle bebeklerin büyüme ve geli?me dönemleri için çok önemlidir. Oksidoredüktaz enzim s?n?f?nda laktoperoksidaz (LPO; EC 1.11.1.7), do?ada yayg?n olarak insanlarda hayvanlarda bulu...

Ground beef with 10%, 15%, or 20% fat were added with none, 0.05% ascorbic acid + 0.01%alpha-tocopherol, or 0.05% ascorbic acid + 0.01%alpha-tocopherol + 0.01% sesamol, and irradiated at 0 or 2.5 kGy. The meat samples were displayed under fluorescent light for 14 d at 4 degrees C. Color, lipid oxidation, volatiles, oxidation-reduction potential (ORP), and carbon monoxide (CO) production were de...

BACKGROUND Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) is a chronic inflammatory disorder of gastrointestinal tract of immune, genetic, and environmental origin. In the present study, we examined the effects of sesamol (SES), which is the active constituent of sesame oil in the acetic acid (AA) induced model for IBD in rats. METHODS The groups were divided into normal control, AA control, SES, and sulfa...

Major lignans of sesame sesamin and sesamolin are benzodioxol--substituted furofurans. Sesamol, sesaminol, its epimers, episesamin transformation products found in processed products. Synthetic routes to all known but only sesamol is synthesized industrially. Biosynthesis furofuran begins with the dimerization coniferyl alcohol, followed by formation dioxoles, oxidation, glycosylation. Most gen...

Sesamol is a sesame lignan. Sesame lignans have multiple functions, including antioxidant activity and also seem to have potential as a source of phytostrogens. This study was condncted to evaluate sesamol contents of 7 brands of Iranian sesame seeds (sesamum indicume L.). The brands were named Karaj 29, Darab 14, Ultan, Dezful, Varamin, Branching Naz, and Nonbranching Naz. After method validat...
