TL;DR: Though oral administration of saffron completely prevented the formation of tumors, it was noticed severe hyperplasia and dysplasia in hamsters treated with DMBA, suggesting that tumors might eventually develop.
Abstract: Our aim was to investigate the chemopreventive potential of saffron in DMBA-induced hamster buccal pouch carcinogenesis. Assessment was by monitoring the percentage of tumor bearing hamsters, tumor size as well as the status of detoxification agents, lipid peroxidation and antioxidants. Oral squamous cell carcinomas were induced in the buccal pouch of Syrian golden hamsters by painting them with 0.5% DMBA in liquid paraffin three times a week for 14 weeks. We observed 100% oral tumor formation with severe histopathological abnormalities in all the hamsters treated with DMBA alone, activities of phase I and phase II detoxification enzymes, lipid peroxidation and antioxidants being significantly altered. Though oral administration of saffron completely prevented the formation of tumors, we noticed severe hyperplasia and dysplasia in hamsters treated with DMBA, suggesting that tumors might eventually develop. Oral administration of saffron return detoxification enzymes, lipid peroxidation and antioxidants to normal ranges. The chemopreventive potential of saffron thus is likely due to antioxidant properties and modulating effects on detoxification in favour of the excretion of carcinogenic metabolites during DMBA-induced hamster buccal pouch carcinogenesis.

TL;DR: In this article, a color master batch for polyolefin yarn fiber is described, which comprises pigments, plastic additives and carrier resins, wherein the plastic additives comprise dispersed lubricant, an antioxidant, a light stabilizer, a coupling agent and liquid paraffin.
Abstract: The invention relates to a technology of color master batches for a polyolefin yarn fiber, which comprises pigments, plastic additives and carrier resin, wherein the plastic additives comprise dispersed lubricant, an antioxidant, a light stabilizer, a coupling agent and liquid paraffin. The process for preparation is that the pigments, a part of plastic additives and the carrier resin are added into a high-speed mixer to be mixed, and then the coupling agent and the liquid paraffin are added to be stirred in a high speed, and at last the above stirred mixture is sent to a twin-screw extruder to be extruded, cooled, dried and granulated. The invention has the characteristics of less dosage, excellent weathering resistance, easy dispersing and excellent processability, and is suitable for the yarn fiber which takes polyethylene, polypropylene and other copolymer as base materials.
