Fried Mugil cephalus was investigated under optimal vacuum and atmospheric conditions. The water distribution, texture, color properties of vacuum-fried samples were enhanced compared with atmospheric-fried samples. Meanwhile, frying (VF) reduced the total oil content, protein oxidation, degradation. molecular weight amino acid content suggested that well-preserved during VF. In addition, carbo...

The study aimed to evaluate the effects of date palm spikelet extract (DPSE) from two cultivars on chemical, antioxidants, and sensory properties yogurt. DPSE Rziz (Rz) Khalas (Kl) contains high levels total phenolics flavonoids as well phenolic compounds with an antioxidant activity exceeded 90%. Increasing concentration in yogurt improved solids, protein, ash, compounds, flavonoids, even duri...

The aim of current study was to determine in vitro digestibility, some microbiological properties and shelf life fermented sucuk foods consisting mixture animal vegetable natural goods produced for dogs. Grain-inclusive grain-free formulations were prepared. group subgrouped as cooked uncooked grain. In digestibility chemical composition 3 groups determined at 0, 1, 3, 6 months after production...

β-Thalassemia (β-thal) is associated with abnormal synthesis of hemoglobin (Hb). Repeated blood transfusions in patients with β-thal major (β-TM) leads to an enhanced generation of reactive oxygen species (ROS), and subjects patients to peroxidative injury. We studied the antioxidant status and oxidative damage to children with β-thal in Jordan. Samples from 40 children with β-thal and 40 healt...

Excessive production of reactive oxygen species (ROS) may cause endothelial dysfunction and consequently vascular disease. In the present study, the possible protective effects of sheep whey protein (SWP) from tert-butyl hydroperoxide- (tBHP-) induced oxidative stress in endothelial cells (EA.hy926) were assessed using oxidative stress biomarkers. These oxidative stress biomarkers were glutathi...

OBJECTIVE Oxidative injury in schizophrenia may be caused not only by pathophysiological processes but partly also by treatment with antipsychotics. The purpose of the present study was to examine and to compare the effects of quetiapine (QUE), olanzapine (OLA) and haloperidol (HAL), at final concentrations corresponding to doses used for treatment of acute episodes of schizophrenia, on plasma ...

Methanolic seed extract of Nelumbo nucifera was partitioned with chloroform and was investigated for its antioxidant and anticataleptic effects in the haloperidol-induced catalepsy rat model by measuring various behavioral and biochemical parameters. Catalepsy was induced by administration of haloperidol (1 mg/kg, ip) in male albino rats. A significant reduction in the cataleptic scores were ob...

Monosodium glutamate (MSG) was administrated subcutaneously to wistar rats for 60 days and circadian rhythms of thiobarbituric acid reactive substances (TBARS) and antioxidants such as superoxide dismutase (SOD), reduced glutathione (GSH), catalase, glutathione peroxidase (GPX) and Vitamin-E were studied. Advanced acrophase of TBARS and delayed acrophase of antioxidants were found in experiment...

Ethanol is a testicular toxin and it causes fertility abnormalities with low sperm count and impaired sperm motility in men. The present study was designed to investigate plasma testosterone level and hypothalamic pituitary gonadal (HPG) axis function in alcoholic men and also effect of ethanol on systemic oxidative stress. Forty six male alcohol abusers in the age group 20-40 years were select...

Symptoms of bronchial asthma are a manifestation of airway inflammation. Circulatory leucocytes (predominantly eosinophils, mast cells and neutrophils), release inflammatory mediators, including reactive oxygen species, i.e. superoxide anion which is dismutated to hydrogen peroxide (H2O2). Neutrophils from asthmatics generate greater amounts of these species than those of healthy subjects. Some...
