Toshihiko Osawa,Mitsuo Namiki +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a novel type of antioxidant was isolated from the leaf wax of Eucalyptus globulus and identified as n-tritriacontan-16,18-dione.
Journal ArticleDOI
The chemistry and physiological functions of sesame
TL;DR: Sesame has been known empirically as a cooking oil which is highly resistant to oxidative deterioration in comparison with other edible oils as discussed by the authors, but until recently there were no scientific studies to elucidate these interesting aspects of sesame seed and oil, but the author and members of his group initiated studies on the chemical elucidation of antioxidative principles of raw and roasted sesame seeds and oils.
Book ChapterDOI
Chemistry of Maillard Reactions: Recent Studies on the Browning Reaction Mechanism and the Development of Antioxidants and Mutagens
TL;DR: The chapter discusses the need for more detailed information on the structure and properties of melanoidin to elucidate the mechanism of its antioxidative activity and application of MRPs in practical food processing.
Journal ArticleDOI
Contribution of lignan analogues to antioxidative activity of refined unroasted sesame seed oil
TL;DR: A lignan compound, named sesaminol, having strong antioxidative activity was found to be formed in high concentration during the industrial bleaching process of unroasted sesame seed oil as mentioned in this paper.
Journal ArticleDOI
Nutraceutical Functions of Sesame: A Review
TL;DR: Sesame lignans lowered the cholesterol concentration in serum, especially in combination with tocopherol, due to the inhibition of absorption from the intestine and suppression of synthesis in the liver, and showed other useful functions such as acceleration of alcohol decomposition in the Liver, antihypertensive activity, immunoregulatory activities, anticarcinogenic activity, and others.
