Caffeic acid (CA) is distributed widely in nature and possesses strong antioxidant activity. However, CA has lower solubility in non-polar media, which limits its application in fat-soluble food. To increase the lipophilicity of natural antioxidant CA, a series of alkyl caffeates were synthesized and their antioxidant and antitumor activities were investigated. The antioxidant parameters, inclu...

Objective(s): This study considered the combination of chitosan nanoparticles with antioxidant-antibacterial fraction extracted from Lactobacillus casei and investigation of possible increasing of antibacterial activity of the fraction in hybrid nanoparticle and the effect of the fraction on the stability of chitosan nanoparticles. Methods: Extra...

ABSTRACT: The commercial development of food products originated from the plants as sources of antioxidants to increase the health benefit and stabilize the food is of current interest. This study was aimed at obtaining dill extract using cold solvent method by three solvents, (methanol, acetone, and hexane) and examining the antioxidant potency and determining the oxidative stability of sunflo...

antioxidant active packaging is one of the active packaging that prevents of lipid oxidation by releasing antioxidant during storage of food. in recent years the use of natural antioxidant instead of the synthetic variety in these packaging has been considered. the aim of this study was evaluating the performance of polymeric film coated with natural antioxidant (rosemary extract) to prevent li...

background: spindle trees (euonymus japonica thunb.) growing in an industrial complex area containing pollutants is chronically injured thus need to build up their resistance. antioxidant enzymes and cell membrane stability have been widely used to differentiate stress tolerance. materials and methods: leaves of spindle trees from a clean control area (kijang) and an industrial area (onsan) whe...

Background: Nowadays, natural antioxidants are used to replace synthetic antioxidants for delaying or preventing the oxidation of edible oils. In this study, phenolic compounds and antioxidant properties of methanol extracts of Spirulina microalgae (Arthrospira platensis) were measured. Methods: Phenolic content was measured by Folin–Ciocalteau method and antioxidant activity was measured by th...

Antioxidant activity of phytosterols, oryzanol, ferulic acid ester of sterols, corn fiber oil, and rice bran oil was investigated. Commercial soybean oil and distilled soybean oil FAME were used as substrates for both oxidative stability determination and viscosity analysis after the oil was oxidized. At low concentration, these materials did not improve the oxidative stability of the oil subst...

in this study extract of olive leaf was added to butter samples at three concentrations, 0.05, 0.1 and 0.5% and after vaccum packaging, were kept in refrigerator for 90 days. acid and peroxide value, microbial culture , polyphenol content of samples ,hardness, oxidative stability, sensory characteristics of samples including flavor, textural and apparent characteristics of samples and dpph radi...

Many studies have demonstrated the antioxidant activity and health benefits of the anthocyanins. The juice of Rubus sp. contains large amounts of anthocyanins and these flavonoids pigments give their characteristic color which tends to degrade easily, also its stability is affected during processing and storage, therefore spray drying can be used to avoid the degradation. The objective of the p...
