Combining effect of camellia oil and squalene on hyperlipidemia-induced reproductive damage in male rats.

Introduction: Camellia oil (CO), a common edible oil in China, contains a variety of active ingredients. In this study, we explored the combining effect and optimal feeding time of CO and squalene on hyperlipemia-induced reproductive damage rats and probably provided supportive data for use of CO for health benefits.

Methods: We established the hyperlipidaemia-induced reproductive damage model, and then the successfully modeled rats were randomly classified into four groups including a model control (MC) group, a camellia oil (CO) group, a camellia oil + squalene (COS) group, and a sildenafil (SN) group, which were feeding with different subjects during days 30 and 60.

Quickly Identifying High-Risk Variables of Ultrasonic Extraction Oil from Multi-Dimensional Risk Variable Patterns and a Comparative Evaluation of Different Extraction Methods on the Quality of Seed Oil.

Generally, essential oils and components of interest are extracted from plants using organic solvent, distillation, ultrasound and supercritical extraction methods. Ultrasonic extraction (UE) has the advantage of high efficiency, but its process is complicated and it has numerous variables. In this study, an L18-Hunter experimental design was applied for the first time to investigate the practicability of applying UE to seed oil.

2,2'-Dihydroxy-3,3'-[(1E,1'E)-hydrazine-1,2-diylidenedimethylidyne]dibenzoic acid N,N-dimethylformamide disolvate.

The title compound, C(16)H(12)N(2)O(6)·2C(3)H(7)NO, lies across a crystallographic inversion centre which is situated at the midpoint of the central N-N bond. The substitution at the C=N bond adopts a trans configuration and it is essentially coplanar with the benzene ring [N-C-C-C torsion angles = -173.9 (4) and 6.
