sesame (sesamum indicum l.) seed and oil have long been used widely as healthy foods to supply energy and prevent aging. some of the main active anti-oxidative constituents in sesame seeds are γ-tocopherol and phenols. the purpose of this study was to investigate the relationship between roasting temperature and time with γ-tocopherol and total phenolic compounds (tpc) of sesame seeds when roas...

raw (intact) sesame seed showed a high content of oil, protein and ash: respectively, 52%, 24% and 5%. studies were conducted on some quality characteristics of sesame and olive oils. the following values were obtained from raw sesame, sesame paste and olive oils, respectively: unsaponifiable matter 1.35, 1.46, and 1.50%; total phenols 14.21, 16.82, and 53.33 mg kg-1 oil; chlorophylls 0.04, 0.0...

introduction intercropping as a common method in sustainable agricultural systems, plays an important role in increasing productivity and yield stability to improve utilization of resources )alizadeh et al., 2010). studies in different countries showed that intercropping causes increase in diversity, production and more efficient use of water resources, land, labor and nutrients and also reduce...

The Sesame modeling and simulation framework aims at early and thus efficient system-level design space exploration of embedded multimedia system architectures. So far, Sesame only supported performance evaluation when mapping a single application onto a (multi-processor) architecture at the time. But since modern multimedia embedded systems are increasingly multi-tasking, we need to address th...

background: diabetes is one of the most common metabolic disorders and is related to oxidative-stress-induced diseases. given the role of dietary antioxidants in the control and prevention of diabetes, this study aimed to examine the effects of sesame butter versus sesame oil on the serum levels of glucose, lipid profile, and oxidative stress biomarkers in diabetic rats. methods: forty male alb...
