A new method for the determination of butylated hydroxyanisole (BHA) and butylated hydroxytoluene (BHT) in cosmetics by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry selected ion storage (SIS) method was developed. The BHA and BHT in samples were extracted by methanol. The m/z 165 and m/z 205 were the monitoring ion for BHA and BHT respectively. The detection limits of BHA and BHT in samples were 2.5 micrograms/g and 0.5 microgram/g, respectively. The method is simple, rapid and accurate.

The widespread use of synthetic phenolic antioxidants (SPAs) has led to their ubiquity and may contribute to multiple adverse health outcomes by affecting hormone level disruption. This study aimed to assess the exposure levels of SPAs in the plasma of the normoglycemic rural Chinese population, investigate the association of single and mixed pollutant exposures with sex hormones, and analyze the moderating role of body mass index (BMI) in these relationships. A cross-sectional study including 763 individuals with normal blood glucose from the Henan Rural cohort was conducted.

Essential fatty acids (EFAs) in edible oils are crucial for human nutrition. However, their high unsaturation renders edible oils susceptible to oxidation during storage and processing. The addition of lipophilic antioxidants is an effective strategy to inhibit oxidation and safeguard the nutritional integrity of edible oils.

This study assessed the callus morphology, growth index, callus diameter, total antioxidant activity, and total phenolic and flavonoid contents (TPC and TFC) of callus extracts from Ajuga xylorrhiza, a severely endangered plant found in small populations in Türkiye. Calluses obtained from a total of 18 applications formed in culture media supplemented with Kin and 2,4-D at six ratios (A, B, C, D, E, and F) and their subcultures (A1, A2, B1, B2, C1, C2, D1, D2, E1, E2, F1, and F2) were used for examination. Extracts A and D had a higher TFC than the other groups (27.

Thiourea structures, known for their wide-ranging bioactivity, have significant potential in diabetes management. In this study, it was aimed to examine the antioxidant capacities of fluorophenyl thiourea derivative compounds and their inhibition studies on α-amylase and α-glycosidase enzyme activity. Antioxidant capacity was determined using Fe-Fe, FRAP, and Cu-Cu reducing analyses, DPPH· and ABTS· scavenging experiments.

This study investigates the integration of Broadband Cavity Enhanced Absorption Spectroscopy (BBCEAS) with High-Performance Liquid Chromatography (HPLC) to detect synthetic antioxidants; BHA, BHT, and TBHQ in the deep-UV region below 300 nm. The research addresses the need for more sensitive and cost-effective detection methods in HPLC systems, particularly for low analyte concentrations, by exploring BBCEAS as a superior alternative to conventional detectors that often fall short in sensitivity. The sensitivity of the HPLC-BBCEAS system is assessed by calculating the minimum detectable change in the absorption coefficient (αmin) and comparing with those obtained using conventional HPLC and single-wavelength HPLC-CRDS methods.
