background: iron deficiency anemia is one of the major causes of morbidity and mortality worldwide. evidences from epidemiological and clinical studies suggest a possible correlation between antioxidant levels and the anemic disease risk. the present work is to investigate antioxidant levels and lipid peroxidation in anemic patients. methods: a number of 30 patients (15 males and 15 females) we...

this study was carried out to evaluate how various amounts of nanozeolite decrease the effects of aflatoxins (af) on color and oxidative stability of the broiler thigh meat. three hundred and thirty six one-day-old ross 308 male broiler chickens were divided into six groups including a control group, which received diet without af and nanozeolite, and five treatment groups that received diet wi...

conclusions the results of the present investigation suggest that sac could be used as a food supplement in the treatment of diabetes characterized by provoked antioxidant status, altered blood glucose, and hormones level. results the levels of glucose, cyp2e1 activity, thiobarbituric acid reactive substances (tbars), hydroperoxide, and ceruloplasmin were increased significantly; whereas, the l...

A simple, reliable, and reproducible fluorometric method for measuring thiobarbituric acid-reactive substances (TBARS) in serum is proposed, based on the reaction between malondialdehyde (MDA) and thiobarbituric acid. Formation of TBARS was complete at pH 2.4-2.6, but extraction with n-butanol proved complete only at lower pH, i.e., 1.6-1.7. Analytical recoveries of MDA added to serum were 94%-...

Lipid oxidation was studied in M. longissimusdorsiand M. semimembranosusin male lambs of Northeastern Bulgarian Fine Wool Breed and cross of this breed with Ile de France, reared indoors and on pasture. The oxidation of the lipids was determined by quantification of thiobarbituric acid reactive substances (TBARS), formed during the storage of the muscles at 4 ˚С until 6th dayand -20 ˚С until 90...

In this study, we measured free radicals and thiobarbituric acid-reactive substances (TBARS) in hepatocellular carcinoma and in non-cancerous liver parenchyma. There was a higher concentration of free radicals in malignant tissue than in non-cancerous tissue. In contrast, the level of TBARS was significantly (P < 0.01) lower than non-cancerous liver parenchyma. These paradoxical results suggest...

We investigated the effect of lipid peroxidation, in vitro induced by H2O2 or FeSO4 and ascorbic acid, on binding properties of muscarinic receptors in rat cerebral cortex membranes. Simultaneously the concentrations of thiobarbituric acid reactive substances (TBARS) were measured to assess the extent of lipid peroxidation. In conditions of increased TBARS levels the density of (3H)N-methylscop...

The effect of irradiation on thiobarbituric acid reactive substances (TBARS) and volatile compounds in raw and cooked nonirradiated and irradiated chicken breast meat infused with green tea and grape seed extracts was investigated. Chicken breast meat was vacuum infused with green tea extract (3,000 ppm), grape seed extract (3,000 ppm), or their combination (at a total of 6,000 ppm), irradiated...
