Antioxidant Potential Evaluation at Various Stages of Black Cumin Oil Production.

L. seeds and their industrial process products, oils, cake, and meal, are valuable sources of bioactive compounds with antioxidant properties. In this work, the effect of technological processes on the antioxidant capacity (AC) and total phenolic content (TPC) in the black cumin oils obtained by cold pressing and solvent extraction, as well as the by-products, were evaluated.

The Effect of High-Temperature Heating on Amounts of Bioactive Compounds and Antiradical Properties of Refined Rapeseed Oil Blended with Rapeseed, Coriander and Apricot Cold-Pressed Oils.

Cold-pressed oils are rich sources of bioactive substances, which may protect triacylglycerols from degradation during frying. Nevertheless, these substances may decompose under high temperature. This work considers the content of bioactive substances in blends and their changes during high-temperature heating.

Health Benefits, Antioxidant Activity, and Sensory Attributes of Selected Cold-Pressed Oils.

The consumption of cold-pressed oils (CPOs) has continuously increased due to their health-promoting compounds, such as polyunsaturated fatty acid (PUFA), tocopherols, sterols, and polyphenols. This study focused on the estimation and comparison of the physicochemical properties and sensory quality of six CPOs: linseed oil (CPLO), pumpkin oil (CPPO), milk thistle oil (CPMTO), rapeseed oil (CPRO), camelina oil (CPCO), and sunflower oil (CPSO), which are the most popular in the Polish market. These oils were analysed for their fatty acid composition (FAC), their tocopherol, sterol, polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon (PAHs), water, and volatile matter (WVM) contents, as well as their antioxidant activity (AA) and oxidative stability parameters.

Changes in Quality of Cold-Pressed Rapeseed Oil with Sinapic Acid Ester-Gelatin Films during Storage.

In recent years, cold-pressed rapeseed oil (CPRO) has become an attractive health-beneficial product and a promising alternative to olive oil. However, a high level of unsaturated fatty acids renders a CPRO more susceptible to oxidative deterioration. Therefore, the effect of new gelatin strips with polyvinyl alcohol (GEL-PVA) and sinapic acid esters (ethyl sinapate-ESA; octyl sinapate-OSA, and cetyl sinapate-CSA) on the oxidative stability, antioxidant activity (AA), and total phenolic content (TPC) in CPRO samples was analyzed during accelerated storage.

Effects of the Chemical Composition on the Antioxidant and Sensory Characteristics and Oxidative Stability of Cold-Pressed Black Cumin Oils.

The antioxidant capacity (AC); amounts of tocopherols, sterols, and polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons; oxidative parameters; fatty acid composition (FAC); and sensory quality of cold-pressed black cumin oils (CPBCOs) available on the Polish market were analyzed and compared. The AC levels of the CPBCO samples were determined using four assays, namely 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH = 226.8−790.

Phenolipids as new food additives: from synthesis to cell-based biological activities.

Increasing interest has been shown in phenolic compounds for enhancing food quality, but their hydrophilicity restricts application in lipophilic systems. Therefore, in this study, twelve hydroxycinnamates derivatives (alkyl and steryl esters of sinapic acid (SA), caffeic acid (CA), and ferulic acid [FA]) were synthesised and evaluated for antioxidant and cytotoxic characteristics. CA esters had the highest radical scavenging activity (RSA) analysed by 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) and 2,2'-azinobis-(3-ethylbenzothiazoline-6-sulphonic acid) (ABTS) assays.

Steryl Sinapate as a New Antioxidant to Improve Rapeseed Oil Quality during Accelerated Shelf Life.

In recent years, steryl esters have become an attractive for the cosmetic, pharmaceutical, and food industries. Hence, the effect of exogenous antioxidant, β-sitosteryl sinapate on oxidative stability and antioxidant activity (AA) of refined rapeseed oil was evaluated by the accelerated shelf-life test. Oxidative parameters of refined rapeseed oil-peroxide value (PV), anisidine value (-AnV), acid value (AV), and spectrophotometric indices (K, K)-increased during storage.

Synthesis of Steryl Hydroxycinnamates to Enhance Antioxidant Activity of Rapeseed Oil and Emulsions.

In recent years, steryl esters have found potential applications in food, pharmaceutical and cosmetic industries. Therefore, three hydroxycinnamate steryl esters (HSEs): β-sitosteryl sinapate (β-SSA), β-sitosteryl caffeate (β-SCA), and β-sitosteryl ferulate (β-SFA) were synthesized by chemical approach and their antioxidant activity (AA) were analyzed by 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) and 2,2'-azinobis-(3-ethylbenzothiazoline-6-sulphonic acid (ABTS) assays. The values of inhibitory concentration (IC) of each ester needed to inhibit 50% of the DPPH radical (IC = 238.
