An Attempt of Using β-Sitosterol-Corn Oil Oleogels to Improve Water Barrier Properties of Gelatin Film.

Only registered users can translate articles

Oleogel with tailored viscoelasticity is a great interest for food structuring, while its potential benefits for edible film performance are not clear. In this study, β-sitosterol (0, 5, 10, 15, and 20 wt%)-corn oil oleogel was developed and used in the formation of gelatin-based films. Importantly,

Simultaneous determination of β-sitosterol, campesterol, and stigmasterol in rat plasma by using LC-APCI-MS/MS: Application in a pharmacokinetic study of a titrated extract of the unsaponifiable fraction of Zea mays L.

Only registered users can translate articles

A liquid chromatography with atmospheric pressure chemical ionization tandem mass spectrometry method was developed and validated to investigate the pharmacokinetic properties of β-sitosterol, campesterol, and stigmasterol in rat plasma. Cholesterol-d6 was used as an internal standard. To avoid

THE EFFECT OF CORN OIL ON FECAL SITOSTEROL AND CHOLESTEROL IN MAN.

The effect of neonatal exposure to diethylstilbestrol, coumestrol, and beta-sitosterol on pituitary responsiveness and sexually dimorphic nucleus volume in the castrated adult rat.

Only registered users can translate articles

The neonatal hormone environment influences the sexually differentiated patterns of development. Estrogens, derived from intracerebral aromatization, promote male pattern development of the central nervous system. The purpose of this study was to determine the effects of neonatal exposure to

Absorption of dietary beta-sitosterol in laying hens and its incorporation into the egg.

Only registered users can translate articles

Studies were undertaken to determine the dietary beta-sitosterol absorption in laying hens and its incorporation into the egg. Hens were divided into four groups and fed a commercial low-fat laying diet. Group 1 served as controls; the diet of group 2 was supplemented with 10% corn oil; group 3 with

Sterol composition of Bulgarian soya and corn oils.

Only registered users can translate articles

The free sterols, the sterol esters and the sterol glycosides of the raw soya and corn oils as well as those of the technical lecithin and the deodorizer distillated of the latter oils were isolated by preparative TLC. The composition of each of the isolated sterol derivatives was determined by GLC

Corn oil and its minor constituents as inhibitors of DMBA-induced chromosomal breaks in vivo.

Only registered users can translate articles

Inhibitory effects of corn oil and its constituents have been studied against 7,12-dimethylbenz[a]anthracene (DMBA)-induced chromosomal breaks in B6C3F1 female mice using the in vivo bone-marrow micronucleus assay. We tested propyl gallate, alpha-tocopherol and beta-sitosterol as constituents of

Developmental regulation of sterol biosynthesis in Zea mays.

Only registered users can translate articles

Sixty-one sterols and pentacyclic triterpenes have been isolated and characterized by chromatographic and spectral methods from Zea mays (corn). Several plant parts were examined; seed, pollen, cultured hypocotyl cells, roots, coleoptiles (sheaths), and blades. By studying reaction pathways and

Sterol Accumulation and Composition in Developing Zea mays L. Kernels.

Only registered users can translate articles

Kernels were collected from three maize (Zea mays L.) inbreds from 10 days after pollination until kernel maturity. Sitosterol, campesterol, and stigmasterol were the major sterols at all stages of kernel development. Cholesterol was less than 1% of the dry weight. The three major sterols

Effects of β-Sitosterol from Corn Silk on TGF-β1-Induced Epithelial-Mesenchymal Transition in Lung Alveolar Epithelial Cells.

Only registered users can translate articles

Pulmonary fibrosis is a chronic lung disease characterized by abnormal accumulation of the extracellular matrix (ECM). Chronic damage of the alveolar epithelium leads to a process called "epithelial-mesenchymal transition" (EMT) and increases synthesis and deposition of ECM proteins.

Biochemical characterization and molecular dynamic simulation of β-sitosterol as a tubulin-binding anticancer agent.

Only registered users can translate articles

Βeta-sitosterol (β-SITO), a phytosterol present in pomegranate, peanut, corn oil, almond, and avocado, has been recognized to offer health benefits and potential clinical uses. β-SITO is orally bioavailable and, as a constituent of edible natural products, is considered to have no undesired side

Oxidation of cholesterol and beta-sitosterol and prevention by natural antioxidants.

Only registered users can translate articles

Consumption of cholesterol oxidation products (COPs) is a growing health concern, but little is known about the intake of beta-sitosterol oxidation products (SOPs). The present study was performed (i) to compare the oxidative stability of cholesterol with that of beta-sitosterol; (ii) to investigate

Sterol utilization and metabolism by Heliothis zea.

Only registered users can translate articles

Heliothis zea (corn earworm), an insect that fails to synthesize sterols de novo, was reared on an artificial diet treated with 18 different sterol supplements. Larvae did not develop on a sterol-less medium. delta 5-Sterols with a hydrogen atom, a methylene group, an E- or Z-ethylidene group, or an

Screening Method for Argan Oil Adulteration with Vegetable Oils: An Online HPLC Assay with Postcolumn Detection Utilizing Chemometric Multidata Analysis.

Only registered users can translate articles

This study is focused on examining the tocopherol isomers (α-, γ-, and δ-) fingerprinting by online RP-HPLC analysis with post column detection using CUPRAC (cupric reducing antioxidant capacity) methodology for argan oil authenticity. The proposed online assay was validated with good precision,

[Significance of nonsaponifiable constituents of dietary fats on the bioactivity of vitamin E].

Only registered users can translate articles

In experiments with male Wistar rats the influence of the non-saponifiable constituents of dietary fats: dl-alpha-tocopherol (60 ppm), dl-gamma-tocopherol (480 ppm), ubiquinone (96 ppm) and beta-sitosterol (3035 ppm) on the tocopherol status was investigated, considering the fatty acid composition
