Journal ArticleDOI
Sitosterol as an antioxidant in frying oils
TL;DR: Conversion of sterol to steradiene, by the 1, 2 elimination of water, may be responsible for the antioxidative effect of sitosterol at frying temperatures.
Journal ArticleDOI
Multi-biomarker characterization of sedimentary organic carbon in small rivers draining the Northwestern United States
TL;DR: The sources of sedimentary organic carbon in various river systems draining the Pacific Northwest (USA) were assessed using a biomarker approach using gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS) as discussed by the authors.
Journal ArticleDOI
Oxidation of sterols: Energetics of C–H and O–H bond cleavage
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors have theoretically studied sterols oxidation in terms of O-H and C-H bond dissociation enthalpies (BDEs) and obtained results indicate that Δ 7 -sterols are more susceptible to oxidation attack in comparison to Δ 5-sterols.
Journal ArticleDOI
Vegetable Oil Deodorizer Distillate : A Rich Source of the Natural Bioactive Components
TL;DR: Present review will cover brief introduction of common processing stages involved in all vegetable oil processing, analytical methods for characterization of deodorizer distillates by instrumental techniques, importance and commercial value of deologne distillate.
Journal ArticleDOI
Anti-inflammatory potential of monogalactosyl diacylglycerols and a monoacylglycerol from the edible brown seaweed Fucus spiralis Linnaeus.
TL;DR: The isolated compounds were tested for their cytotoxic and anti-inflammatory activity in RAW 264.7 macrophage cells and inhibited NO production at non-cytotoxic concentrations.

A rapid method of total lipid extraction and purification.
E. G. Bligh,W. J. Dyer +1 more
TL;DR: The lipid decomposition studies in frozen fish have led to the development of a simple and rapid method for the extraction and purification of lipids from biological materials that has been applied to fish muscle and may easily be adapted to use with other tissues.

TL;DR: Dairy therapy remains the first line of treatment of high blood cholesterol, and drug therapy is reserved for patients who are considered to be at high risk for CHD, and the fundamental approach to treatment is comparable.

Accumulation of Dietary Cholesterol in Sitosterolemia Caused by Mutations in Adjacent ABC Transporters
Knut Erik Berge,Hui Tian,Gregory A. Graf,Liqing Yu,Nick V. Grishin,Joshua Schultz,Peter Kwiterovich,Bei Shan,Robert Barnes,Helen H. Hobbs +9 more
TL;DR: Data suggest that ABCG5 and ABCG8 normally cooperate to limit intestinal absorption and to promote biliary excretion of sterols, and that mutated forms of these transporters predispose to sterol accumulation and atherosclerosis.
