Metabolic dysfunction and hepatic abnormalities, such as those associated with high-fat, high-fructose (HFHFr) diets, are major contributors to obesity-related health issues. The growing interest in sustainable dietary interventions has highlighted the potential of plant-based byproducts. Dragon fruit (Hylocereus undatus) peel waste, rich bioactive compounds fibers, phenolics, betacyanins, represents a promising functional ingredient for managing these disorders. This study investigated...
Anabolic steroid abuse has been associated with thrombosis and arteriosclerosis, both of which predispose to myocardial ischemia infarction. However, there are reports sudden cardiac death in the absence thrombus atheroma following anabolic use. Although treatment commonly abused steroid, nandrolone, shown decrease recovery systolic function isolated rat hearts, it is unknown whether steroids can increase incidence fatal arrhythmia ischemia. Anesthetized male Sprague–Dawley rats were...
Cosmetic foundation powders are one of the most commonly used cosmetic products in modern society. In recent years, so‐called mineral‐based have become increasing popular consumer market and can demand a premium price from consumer. Manufacturers suppliers often refer to mineral foundations as being ‘chemical free’, implying that these materials contain no potential skin irritants. However, there laws determining use term ‘mineral cosmetic’ interpretation is at discretion manufacturer. this...
Stearidonic acid (SDA; C18:4n-3) has been suggested as an alternative to fish oil (FO) for delivering health benefits of C ≥ 20 long-chain n-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids (LC PUFA). Echium (EO) represents a non-genetically-modified source SDA available commercially. This study compared EO and FO in relation alterations plasma tissue acids, their ability afford protection against ischemia-induced cardiac arrhythmia ventricular fibrillation (VF). Rats were fed (12 weeks) diets supplemented...
The determination of moisture and fat in processed cheese is a common regular requirement the manufacture this foodstuff, near-infrared spectrometry short-wavelength region (700–1200 nm) can provide basis for suitable on-line off-line quantitative analytical methodology if used with calibration model. In study, using data from 12-filter spectrometer, several models including ordinary least squares, multiple linear regression, principal component regression partial squares have been examined...
Abstract We have reported that dietary fish oil (FO) rich in n−3 PUFA modulates gut contractility. It was further demonstrated the of spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHR) has a depressed contractility response to prostaglandins (PG) compared with normotensive Wistar‐Kyoto (WKY) rats. investigated whether feeding diets supplemented increased and restored prostanoid SHR gut. Thirteen‐week‐old were fed containing fat at 5 g/100 g as coconut (CO), lard, canola 10% (w/w) FA α‐linolenic acid...
We have reported that dietary fish oil (FO) leads to the incorporation of long-chain n-3 PUFA into gut tissue small animal models, affecting contractility, particularly rat ileum. This study examined FO dose response for ileal and how this correlated with in vitro contractility. Groups ten twelve 13-wk-old Wistar-Kyoto rats were fed 0, 1, 2.5, 5% FO-supplemented diets balanced sunflower seed 4 wk, after which total phospholipid FA determined contractility assessed. For fraction, increasing...
Fifty-three oil shale samples from the Stuart Deposit in Central Queensland were analysed spectroscopically for hydrocarbon (kerogen) content. Near infrared (NIR) diffuse reflectance spectra of exhibited sloping baselines due to particulate scattering and instrumental drift. Multiplicative scatter correction (MSC) derivative spectroscopy investigated as means removing effects non-linear baselines. Partial least squares (PLS) calibration models have been developed, utilising both entire...
