Antioxidant Activity of Capsinoids

Journal of Agricultural and Food Chemistry, 2002
Hot peppers are a good source of dietary antioxidants, encompassing, apart from widespread compounds (flavonoids, phenolic acids, carotenoids, vitamin A, ascorbic acid, tocopherols), also specific constituents such as the pungent capsaicinoids (capsaicin, dihydrocapsaicin, and related analogues).

Antioxidant activity of propylthiouracil

Free Radical Biology and Medicine, 1990
Propylthiouracil (PTU) has been demonstrated to reduce alcohol-induced hepatocyte damage and severe alcoholic liver disease. Although the mechanism by which the drug operates is yet to be elucidated, there is evidence that PTU may act as an antioxidant.

Antioxidant Activity of Grains

Journal of Agricultural and Food Chemistry, 2002
Epidemiological studies have shown that consumption of whole grains and grain-based products is associated with reduced risk of chronic diseases. The health benefits of whole grains are attributed in part to their unique phytochemical composition. However, the phytochemical contents in grains have been commonly underestimated in the literature, because

The antioxidant activity of caroverine

Biochemical Pharmacology, 2003
Caroverine, 1-(2-diethylaminoethyl)-3-(p-methoxy benzyl)-1,2-dihydro-2-quinoxalin-2-on-hydrochloride, is a class B calcium-channel-blocker and antiglutamatergic agent with significant effects on the brain function. Caroverine exhibits competitive AMPA antagonism, and at higher concentrations, noncompetitive NMDA antagonism.

Antioxidant activity of carotenoids

Molecular Aspects of Medicine, 2003
Carotenoids are pigments which play a major role in the protection of plants against photooxidative processes. They are efficient antioxidants scavenging singlet molecular oxygen and peroxyl radicals. In the human organism, carotenoids are part of the antioxidant defense system.

Antioxidant activity and active sites of phospholipids as antioxidants

Journal of the American Oil Chemists' Society, 1997
AbstractVarious compounds, representative of the major functional groups in phospholipids, phosphatidylethanolamine and phosphatidylcholine, were tested for antioxidant activity (AA) in a sardine oil system to determine the relationship between molecular structure and the AA of these compounds. AA was found to be attributable not only to the side‐chain

Antioxidant Activity of Diethyldithiocarbamate

Free Radical Research, 1996
Diethyldithiocarbamate (DDC), a potent copper chelating agent, has long been used for the treatment of oxygen toxicity to the central nervous system, as an immunomodulator to treat cancer, and in HIV-infected patients. We evaluated the antioxidant properties of DDC, including its scavenging of reactive oxygen species, its reducing properties, its iron ...
