Perspectives in biomedicine: Superfoods and antioxidant power classification

open access: yesThe Canadian Journal of Chemical Engineering, EarlyView.
Abstract The market value of natural food antioxidants will double to 8 billion USD by 2033, driven by a global consumer demand for ‘clean label’ products and proactive wellness solutions. However, the industrial application and health labelling (commercial brands) of these compounds remain severely constrained by inconsistent analytical methods.

Comparison of the Effects of Supplemental Red Palm Oil and Sunflower oil on Maternal Vitamin A Status. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2001
Conflicting results have been reported on the ability of dietary carotenoids to improve vitamin A status in lactating women. Red palm oil is one of the richest dietary sources of beta-carotene.

Inconsistent Transcriptomic Responses to Hexabromocyclododecane in Japanese Quail: A Comparative Analysis of Results From Four Different Study Designs

open access: yesEnvironmental Toxicology and Chemistry, EarlyView.
Abstract Efforts to use transcriptomics for toxicity testing have classically relied on the assumption that chemicals consistently produce characteristic transcriptomic signatures that are reflective of their mechanism of action. However, the degree to which transcriptomic responses are conserved across different test methodologies has seldom been ...

Factors affecting β carotene destruction in moist preserved leaf protein

open access: yes, 1984
Leaves are, and will probably remain, an important dietary source of β carotene (provitamin A). There is enough of it in extracted leaf protein (LP) to make that a useful source.

Development of beta-carotene-loaded poly(lactic acid)/hydroxyapatite core-shell nanoparticles for osteoblast differentiation

open access: yes, 2022
Beta-carotene (BC) is a nutrient in vegetables and a precursor of vitamin A. BC has been reported to have anticarcinogenic, antiaging, and antioxidation properties and prevents heart diseases.

Characterization of Cantaloupe, Grape, Pumpkin, and Tomato Seed Oils From Xinjiang: Oxidative Stability, Volatile‐Compound Analysis, and Sensory Evaluation

open access: yesFood Chemistry International, EarlyView.
This study compares oxidative stability, fatty acid profiles, volatile compounds, and sensory attributes of four Xinjiang seed oils. Distinct aldehyde‐driven aroma patterns and compositional differences were revealed, providing a scientific basis for quality evaluation and valorization of underutilized plant seed oils in food applications.

Antimetastatic Effects of α‑Carotene and Possible Mechanisms ofAction in Human Hepatocarcinoma SK-Hep‑1 Cells

open access: yes, 2014
In vitro evidence suggests that α-carotene (AC) is an antimetastatic agent against cancer cells, but the mechanisticaction is unclear. This study investigated the antimetastatic effect and possible mechanism of AC in comparison with β-carotene(BC) using ...

Optimising the Eco‐Friendly Extraction of Carotenoids From Gac Fruit: A Sustainable Solution for Natural Red Food Colourants

open access: yesFood Chemistry International, EarlyView.
Gac fruit's high carotenoid content, especially in the aril, makes it an excellent natural red pigment source for food applications, offering a safer alternative to synthetic dyes. Ethanol extraction achieved the highest overall pigment recovery (89.53%), whereas ethyl lactate extraction yielded the highest levels of total carotenoids, β‐carotene ...
