Norbixin Protects Retinal Pigmented Epithelium Cells and Photoreceptors against A2E-Mediated Phototoxicity In Vitro and In Vivo - Fig 4 [PDF]
Comparative pharmacokinetics of bixin (A) and norbixin (B) given orally. (A) bixin or (B) norbixin were given at 50 mg/kg. Plasma analyses—note that bixin is efficiently converted into norbixin (values are the mean of three different animals).

Re‐evaluation of dimethyl polysiloxane (E 900) as a food additive
Abstract The Panel on Food Additives and Flavourings (FAF) provided a scientific opinion re‐evaluating the safety of dimethyl polysiloxane (E 900) as a food additive. E 900 was evaluated by the Scientific Committee on Food (SCF) in 1990 and agreed with the Acceptable Daily Intake (ADI) of 1.5 mg/kg body weight (bw) per day previously established by ...

In my article, I have presented notifications regarding the eight most frequently reported hazards in the Rapid Alert System for Food and Feed, using cluster analysis. Analysis of notifications reported in the RASFF may be helpful in the activities of European and national government bodies and contribute to increasing food safety to the European ...

Effect of different concentrations of norbixin on the accumulation of A2E by porcine RPE cells in vitro. [PDF]
RPE cells were treated with norbixin (or DMSO) and with A2E but not illuminated and cells were extracted with MeOH. A2E concentrations are expressed as absolute amounts per 105 cells. Bars represent the mean ± s.e.m. of three separate experiments with n =

TiO2-based dye-sensitized solar cells prepared with bixin and norbixin natural dyes: Effect of 2,2 '-bipyridine additive on the current and voltage [PDF]
In this paper, we discovered that the 2,2'-bipyridine (bipy) was able to increase the voltage and short circuit current of dye-sensitized solar cells (DSSCs) prepared using bixin and norbixin natural dyes that are environmentally friendly. Titanium oxide
