DPPH (1, 1-Diphenyl-2-Picrylhydrazyl) radical scavenging activity was performed to find out the antioxidant activity (AA) of all the antioxidants used at a concentration of 5, 10, and 15 μl/ml. Effect of spice oleoresins (clove, black pepper, and ginger) (200 ppm) and TBHQ (200 ppm) were incorporated in stabilizing refined, bleached, and deodorized (RBD) sunflower oil heating at frying temperat...

There are many unresolved questions concerning the health benefits of dietary antioxidants due in part to the complexity of the materials and mechanisms of action. We applied a new electrochemical method and report new observations for one of the richest sources of dietary antioxidants. We observed that the insoluble fraction of clove is redox-active and can be rapidly and repeatedly switched b...

Cigarette smoke is proved to cause various disturbances on respiratory tract. Clove cigarette is far more dangerous than common (“white”) cigarette, since the tar, nicotine, and carbon monoxyde content is significantly higher. In Indonesia, 88% smokers consume clove cigarette. The clove cigarette effect to the respiratory tract have never been studied. Aim of this research is to study histopath...

abstract the present study was carried out to investigate the efficacy of two anesthetics, clove oil and ketamine, comparison of hematological parameters, and blood biochemical indices under optimum doses of the two anesthetics in juvenile sterlet acipenser ruthenus (n=276) with an average weight of 64.1 ± 3.4 g. clove oil was used in concentrations of 14, 35, 56, 77, 98 and 119 mg/l, and those...

Clove essential oil, used as an antiseptic in oral infections, inhibits Gram-negative and Gram-positive bacteria as well as yeast. The influence of clove essential oil concentration, temperature and organic matter, in the antimicrobial activity of clove essential oil, was studied in this paper, through the determination of bacterial death kinetics. Escherichia coli, Staphylococcus aureus and Ps...
