Journal ArticleDOI
Antioxidant activity of essential oils.
TL;DR: The chemistry explaining EO antioxidant activity is discussed along with an analysis of the potential in food protection, and literature methods to assess EOs' antioxidant performance are critically reviewed.
Journal ArticleDOI
Advantages and limitations of common testing methods for antioxidants
Riccardo Amorati,Luca Valgimigli +1 more
TL;DR: Owing to the importance of antioxidants in the protection of both natural and man-made materials, a large variety of testing methods have been proposed and applied, which include methods based on inhibited autoxidation studies and cell-based assays to investigate the biological activity of antioxidants.
Journal ArticleDOI
Hydroxylamines as Oxidation Catalysts: Thermochemical and Kinetic Studies
Riccardo Amorati,Marco Lucarini,Veronica Mugnaini,Gian Franco Pedulli,Franceso Minisci,Francesco Recupero,Francesca Fontana,Paola Astolfi,Lucedio Greci +8 more
TL;DR: Kinetic studies, carried out in order to better understand the mechanism of the NHPI-catalyzed aerobic oxidation of cumene, are consistent with a simple kinetic model where the rate-determining step is the hydrogen atom abstraction from the hydroxylamine by cumylperoxyl radicals.
Journal ArticleDOI
Solvent and pH effects on the antioxidant activity of caffeic and other phenolic acids.
TL;DR: The antioxidant activity of several phenolic acids and esters has been investigated both in organic solutions and in large unilamellar phosphatidylcholine vesicles, finding that with increasing pH, their antioxidant activity increased substantially, becoming comparable to or even better than that of Trolox.
Journal ArticleDOI
Direct chemical grafted curcumin on halloysite nanotubes as dual-responsive prodrug for pharmacological applications
Marina Massaro,Riccardo Amorati,Giuseppe Cavallaro,Susanna Guernelli,Giuseppe Lazzara,Stefana Milioto,Renato Noto,Paola Poma,Serena Riela +8 more
TL;DR: This work synthesized HNT-Cur prodrug with a controlled curcumin release on dependence of both intracellular glutathione (GSH) and pH conditions and investigated the kinetics of curCumin release by UV-vis spectroscopy, which highlighted that HNT, Cur prodrug possesses dual stimuli-responsive ability upon exposure to GSH-rich or acidic environment.
