The widely accepted oxidative stress theory of aging postulates that aging results from accumulation of oxidative damage. Surprisingly, data from the longest-living rodent known, naked mole-rats [MRs; mass 35 g; maximum lifespan (MLSP) > 28.3 years], when compared with mice (MLSP 3.5 years) exhibit higher levels of lipid peroxidation, protein carbonylation, and DNA oxidative damage even at a yo...

BACKGROUND Soybean oil may protect against cancer of the breast and prostate. It may also exert beneficial influence in combination with other oils. Here, blends (20%, v/v) of sea buckthorn oil (SEBO), camellia oil (CAO), rice bran oil (RBO), sesame oil (SEO) and peanut oil (PEO) with soybean oil (SBO) were formulated. MATERIALS AND METHODS Oxidative stability (OS) and radical scavenging acti...

Vidrih R., Vidakovič S., Abramovič H. (2010): Biochemical parameters and oxidative resistance to thermal treatment of refined and unrefined vegetable edible oils. Czech J. Food Sci., 28: 376–384. In human nutrition fats are physiologically important food constituents but also the components most liable to oxidative degradation. The oils included in the study were refined (sunflower, extra-sunfl...

The object of research is the process fat oxidation at elevated and standard temperatures. Fats are used in chemical, pharmaceutical, food other industries. Oxidative deterioration changes composition fats, reduces efficiency chemical reactions involving fats quality final products. An urgent task to increase oxidative stability fats. compositions based on rapeseed, high-oleic sunflower palm oi...
