Phosphatidylethanolamine (PE) and phosphatidylserine (PS) have been shown to increase the antioxidant activity of α-tocopherol. This study investigated the ability of PE or PS to increase the antioxidant activity of different tocopherol homologues in bulk oil. In addition, the ability of a phospholipase-D-modified lecithin (high in PE) to increase the activity of α-tocopherol was determined. Results showed that PE was much more effective than PS at increasing the activity of the tocopherol homologues. The combination of mixed tocopherols with PE presented the greatest increase in antioxidant activity, with hydroperoxides and hexanal lag phases increasing 54 and 53 days compared to the mixed tocopherols alone. Phospholipase-D-modified lecithin increased the antioxidant activity of α-tocopherol in stripped bulk oil as well as a commercially refined oil with no added tocopherols. The study indicates that PE is a powerful tool to increase the antioxidant activity of tocopherols in bulk oil and that modification of lecithin to increase the PE concentration could be a commercially viable option to functionalize lecithin, so that its ability to inhibit lipid oxidation increases in bulk oils.

The Asteraceae family has been of significant concern for ethnobotanical studies, thanks to its health-promoting properties linked to a plethora of bioactive compounds, among which phenolic compounds play a critical role. In this work, a workflow based on computational chemometrics was employed to assess the authenticity and biomarker search of five key Asteraceae species commonly employed in traditional medicine. The UHPLC-DAD-ESI/MS-MS phenolic profile of Asteraceae extracts was combined with the evaluation of several in vitro biological properties.

Injury caused by excess reactive oxygen species (ROS) may lead to susceptibility to bacterial infection and sustained inflammatory response, which are the major factors impeding diabetic wound healing. By utilizing optimal anti-inflammatory, antioxidant and antibacterial biomaterials for multifunctional wound dressings is critical in clinical applications. In this study, a novel electrospun PLGA/MoS@Pd nanofiber membrane was synthesized by encapsulating antioxidant and near-infrared (NIR) responsive MOS@Pd nanozymes in PLGA nanofibers to form a multifunctional dressing for diabetic wound repair.
