TL;DR: There are no data in the literature concerning the possible employment of these secoiridoides as antimicrobial agents against pathogenic bacteria in man.

TL;DR: In this article, the effect of heating on antioxidant effectiveness and the chemical composition of basil, cinnamon, clove, nutmeg, oregano and thyme essential oils was investigated. And the ability of these essential oils to protect α-tocopherol, contained in virgin olive oil, against thermal oxidative degradation was investigated, and the essential oils tested exhibited good antioxidant properties and might be efficiently used to control lipid oxidation during food processing.

TL;DR: The findings indicate the following: the antioxidant efficiency of orange juices may be attributed, in a significant part at least, to their content of total phenols, while ascorbic acid seems to play a minor role.

TL;DR: It is confirmed, by means of in vitro and in vivo experiments, that caffeic and ferulic acids may be successfully employed as topical protective agents against UV radiation-induced skin damage; however their skin absorption is not influenced by the pH of the formulation.

TL;DR: The present study carried out to better characterize the phenolic composition and the antioxidant activity of Bronte pistachios, with the particular aim to evaluate the differences between pistachio seeds and skins.
