Lipase-catalyzed synthesis of lipophilic phenolic antioxidants was carried out with a concentrate of n-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs), recovered from oil extracted from salmon ( Salmon salar ) byproduct. Vanillyl alcohol and rutin were selected for the esterification reaction, and obtained esters yields were 60 and 30%, respectively. The antioxidant activities of the esters were compared...

VAHOUNY, GEORGE V. AND C. R. TREADWELL. Absorption oj cholesterol esters in the lymph-fistula rat. Am. J. Physiol. 195(z): 516520. rg#.-Free and esterified cholesterol fractions in thoracic duct lymph of rats were determined after the administration of emulsions containing saline, albumin, taurocholate, oleic acid and free cholesterol, or fatty acid esters of cholesterol. Total lymph cholestero...

While tertiary boranes undergo efficient protodeboronation with carboxylic acids, tertiary boronic esters do not. Instead, we have discovered that CsF with 1.1 equiv of H2O (on tertiary diarylalkyl boronic esters) or TBAF·3H2O (on tertiary aryldialkyl boronic esters) effect highly efficient protodeboronation of tertiary boronic esters with essentially complete retention of configuration. Furthe...

The influence of shear on the lamellar phase of a semi-dilute solution (36il (w /w) of tetra ethylenglycol dodecylether (CH3[CH2]11 [OCH2CH2]40H, C12E4) in water was investigated by Small Angle Light Scattering (SALS), Small Angle Neutron Scattering (SANS) and rheology. A plateau modulus was determined by low amplitude oscillatory shear experiments. A strong scattering peak perpendicular to the...

2014 We have investigated the dielectric, diamagnetic, and elastic properties of various 2-fluoroand 3fluoro-4-cyanophenyl esters. The esters are derivatives of benzoic, cyclohexane or bicyclooctane acids. For comparison we also measured the same properties of the corresponding non fluorinated esters. The change in the properties of the esters with either variation of the ring in the acid part ...

The chromatographic behavior of some minor components of natural lipids was studied using layers of magnesium oxide and of commercial adsorbents containing magnesium oxide. The lipids investigated included wax esters, cholesteryl esters, diester waxes, and esters, ethers and ether-esters of ethanediol and glycerol. Pronounced differences were found in the patterns of separation of certain lipid...

drug administration. However, the barrier properties of the outermost layer, the stratum corneum, have limited the number of successful transdermal dosage forms developed thus far. One of the strategies for overcoming this problem is temporary local reduction of the barrier function of the stratum corneum with the aid of a percutaneous absorption enhancer. Sucrose fatty acid esters (sugar ester...

Mechanisms of decreased cholesterol absorption mediated by phytosterols in the intestinal lumen" (2011). Phytosterols and their fatty acyl esters have been known for decades to lower LDL cholesterol, making them powerful nutraceuticals in lowering cardiovascular disease risk. The mechanisms by which phytosterols lower cholesterol, though, have been incompletely characterized. Three studies were...

A continuous process for the transesterification of triglycerides to methyl esters was investigated in a pilot plant. The process was equipped with a motionlerr and a high-shear mixer. The experimental studies explored variations in the mixing intensity, stcichionetry, and catalyst concentration on the overall conversion. The combined as well as individual effect of mixers was examined. The dev...

Previous studies had shown radioiodinated esters of cholesterol and pregnenolone to accumulate in steroid-secreting tissues of the rat. This was particularly true for radioiodinated iopanoate esters. The present study was undertaken to examine the effect of the iopanoyl amino group on the tissue distribution of these esters. While the tissue distribution profiles for cholesteryl iopanoate and t...
