A comparative H2O2-luminol- and Fe(II)-induced chemiluminescence analysis of extracts of two strains of marine oil oxidizing bacteria Actinetobacter calcoaceticus cultivated either in the presence or absence of oil was carried out. Effects of these extracts on E. coli MG1655 biosensor (pSoxS-lux) were studied. Activation of H2O2-induced chemiluminescence in the presence of oil was observed. This suggests activation of free radical lipid peroxidation. Aqueous extracts of microorganisms cultivated in the presence of oil were shown to activate reactive oxygen species production (ROS) in Fe(II)-induced chemiluminescence reaction mixture. Acetone-ethanol extracts induced antioxidative systems of both strains. Chemiluminescence analysis in a biological system carried utilizing E. coli MG1655 (pSoxS-lux) revealed that aqueous extracts of the strains cultivated in the absence of oil contained potential antioxidants.

Background: Aluminium chloride, an environmental toxicant induces neurotoxicity by increasing anxiety, causing cognitive deficit and memory impairment due to its effects on the hippocampus. Omega-3 oil has been shown to improve cognition in neurologic disorders.
Method: Forty adult female rats were divided into 4 groups (n = 10).

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.

Lipid and protein oxidation have significant effects on the shelf-life and nutritional value of meat and meat products. While lipid oxidation has been extensively studied, it has been recognized that proteins are also susceptible to oxidation. However, the precise mechanisms of oxygen-induced amino acid and protein modifications in the food matrix remain unclear.

A lipophilic piceid lipoate (PIL) was synthesized by enzymatic method to enhance the antioxidant activity of piceid and improve its state in oil system. The highest substrate conversion of 93.71 % was obtained in γ-valerolactone using Novozym 435 as a catalyst, with a piceid/lipoic acid ratio of 1:15 (mM/mM), an enzyme dosage of 40 mg/mL, and 4 Å molecular sieves at 400 mg/mL.

Frying is one of the oldest cooking methods, widely used to prepare crispy and flavorful foods. However, a significant concern with fried foods is the high amount of oil absorption. The application of edible coatings is a common approach to reducing oil absorption in fried potatoes.
