the present study attempts to investigate the effect of thermal treatment at 180 °c for 8 hours on chemical changes, quality indexes and oxidative stability of three iranian common virgin olive oils (zard, mari and phishomi). oil samples were taken every 2h of heating treatment and assessed for fatty acid composition, conjugated diene value, carbonyl value, color index and oxidative stability i...

In the title compound, C(29)H(25)NS(2), both the Cl atoms of the aza-diene precursor 4,4-dichloro-1,1-diphenyl-2-aza-buta-1,3-diene are replaced by two vicinal S-p-tolyl substituents attached to the terminal C atom of a π-conjugated 2-aza-butadiene array. The aza-diene chain is planar to within 0.01 Å. One of the phenyl rings seems to be slightly π-conjugated with the aza-diene core [dihedral a...

methanolic extracts of five native species of salvia from the labiatae family were evaluated for antioxidant activity in low-erucic acid rapeseed oil using the schaal oven test at 60°c, with deterioration monitored by determination of peroxide value, conjugated diene content and p-anisidine value. the activity of the salvia extracts was compared with that of tbhq, ascorbyl palmitate, and extrac...

The aims of the present study were to evaluate oxidative status, by investigating the serum Paraoxonase/Arylesterase (PON/ARE) activities along with conjugated dienes in patients with IBS and controls and to confirm the link between oxidative stress and IBS. Thirty IBS patient and 30 healthy subjects were recruited. Total serum cholesterol, low-density lipoprotein (LDL), high-density lipoprotei...

Soybean and linseed oils were selectively hydrogenated with copper-on-silica gel catalyst. The linolenate content of the oils was reduced to diene and monoene with no appreciable increase in saturates. Hydrogenated soybean oils contained 68-76% monoene, 11-18% diene, 0% conjugated diene and triene, 1-6% conjugatable diene, 0-0.3% conjugatable triene, and 23-40% isolated trans double bonds. Hydr...

The present work has been undertaken to study the effect of ambrex, a polyherbal formulation on experimental gastric ulceration and their possible antioxidative mechanism to cure ulcer. Gastric mucosal damage was produced in rats by administering 200 mg/kg orally. Aspirin was found to cause severe haemorrhagic lesions mainly through oxidative damage of the mucosa as indicated by increased lipid...

This study is designed to evaluate the roles of oxidative and nitrosative stress in serum and cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) of relapsing remitting multiple sclerosis (RRMS) patients. Oxidative stress markers thiobarbituric acid reactive substances (TBARS), 8-epi-PGF2α, conjugated diene and nitrosative stress markers nitrotyrosine, nitrit-nitrate were analysed in serum and CSF of 20 newly diagnosed ...

The present study is aimed to examine and compare the storage stability of seed kils extracted form red pepper (Capsicum annuum L.) waste by green techniques (cold pressing, ethanol solvent, ultrasound-assisted solvent extraction). In accordance with this purpose, oil samples were stored for a period 6 weeks at 60°C under accelerated conditions analyzed weekly intervals peroxide, conjugated die...

A randomized, double-masked, crossover clinical trial was carried out to evaluate whether lovastatin therapy (60 mg daily) affects the initiation of oxidation of low density lipoprotein (LDL) in cardiac patients on a-tocopherol supplementation therapy (450 IU daily). Twenty-eight men with verified coronary heart disease and hypercholesterolemia received a-tocopherol with lovastatin or with dumm...
