Aqueous extract of Calendula officinalis Linn. leaves and flowers has antioxidant action. The activity was determined using the ferric thiocyanate thiobarbituric acid techniques. aqueous extracts petals greater than that leaves. According to findings this study, C. are a possible source natural antioxidants.

The wide diffusion of 2-thiobarbituric acid (TBA) in the scientific literature is due to the TBA assay, or TBA test, which has been employed in the determination of autoxidative alterations of fats and oils. Two processes occur in autoxidation, generally: the free radical and the photo-oxidation mechanisms. The better studied is the free radical mechanism. The hydroperoxiepidioxides and bicyclo...

INTRODUCTION Salivary TBARS are a potential marker of oxidative stress in the oral cavity. Previous studies have found increased levels of salivary TBARS in various diseases. The aim of this study was to assess the variability of salivary TBARS in both genders. SUBJECTS & METHODS Saliva samples from thirty-eight healthy volunteers (18F & 20M) were collected every day during 30 day period. TBA...

The occurrence of 2-keto-3-deoxy-D-manno-octonic acid (KDO) in lipopolysaccharides (LPS) of Vibrio parahaemolyticus was demonstrated for the first time by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry after dephosphorylation, reduction, and methylation. KDO was virtually completely phosphorylated, since no KDO was detected by either gas chromatography or thiobarbituric acid assay before dephosphorylatio...
