Studies on the antioxidative activity of red pigments in Italian-type dry-cured ham [PDF]

open access: yes, 2003
Aqueous phosphate buffer extracts and acetone/water extracts of pigments from Parma ham were assessed as antioxidants by (1) electron spin resonance spectroscopy using a spin probing technique to evaluate their efficiencies as scavengers of free radicals,

Beta-Carotene Supplementation for Sows: Reproductive Parameters and Productive Performance of Piglets

open access: yesAnimals, 2023
The rapid fetal development and the increased demand for milk result in a catabolic state and oxidative stress in hyperprolific sows. Despite animal defense mechanisms, the dietary supplementation of antioxidants is being evaluated to reduce the impacts ...

Macular pigment and its contribution to visual performance and experience

open access: yesJournal of Optometry, 2010
There is now a consensus, based on histological, biochemical and spectral absorption data, that the yellow colour observed at the macula lutea is a consequence of the selective accumulation of dietary xanthophylls in the central retina of the living eye.

Electrocoagulation Sludge Valorization—A Review

open access: yesResources, 2021
In the field of electrocoagulation (EC), various studies on pollutant removal and on the use of different EC technologies have already been made. An EC process generates sludge, which is considered waste, resulting in increased operational costs that ...

The differentiation of cholesterol and pigment gallstones [PDF]

open access: yes, 1989
Gallbladder biles and stones were obtained at 116 cholecystectomies for symptomatic gallstone disease. All 33 patients younger than 50 years had cholesterol stones, whereas 40% of the older patients had pigment stones.

Lutein, zeaxanthin and meso-zeaxanthin content of eggs laid by hens supplemented with free and esterified xanthophylls

open access: yesJournal of Nutritional Science, 2016
The xanthophyll carotenoids lutein (L), zeaxanthin (Z) and meso-zeaxanthin (MZ) are found at the macula, the central part of the retina, where they are referred to as macular pigment (MP).

Microbial Carotenoids Production: Strains, Conditions, and Yield Affecting Factors

open access: yesEnvironmental and Climate Technologies, 2023
The research and development of carotenoid production has a long history, and interest in this group of pigments has not decreased to this day. Six existing carotenoids are considered industrially important: astaxanthin, β-carotene, lutein, zeaxanthin ...

Biochemical adaptations of the retina and retinal pigment epithelium support a metabolic ecosystem in the vertebrate eye

open access: yesbioRxiv, 2017
Here we report multiple lines of evidence for a comprehensive model for retinal energy metabolism. Metabolic flux, locations of key enzymes and our finding that glucose enters the neural retina almost entirely through photoreceptors support a ...
