Butylated hydroxytoluene (BHT) and butylated hydroxyanisole (BHA) are two commonly used antioxidants with potential health risks associated with excessive intake from multiple sources. Several countries have implemented strict regulations to curb these risks. This study presents a simple LC-MS/MS method for estimating BHT and BHA levels in Salmo salar, butter, and milk. To mitigate any potential interference from the three complex matrices with the ionisation of the target analytes, the method utilised the standard addition approach. The mobile phase used to elute the analytes consisted of 0.1 % formic acid in a mixture of water and acetonitrile (25:75 v/v). Both antioxidants were detected in negative ionisation mode. BHT was identified through single-ion monitoring at a mass-to-charge ratio (m/z) of 219.4, while BHA was detected using multiple-reaction monitoring, with a transition from m/z 164.0 to 149.0. The environmental assessment of the applied procedures verified that the approach is eco-friendly.

() utilizes heme as an iron source from the host during infection. Biliverdin beta and delta (BVIXβ and BVIXδ) are generated by HemO, specific to , while biliverdin alpha is generated from the bacterial BphO system and by mammalian heme oxygenases. Here, we have developed and characterized a quantitative LC-MS/MS assay for the separation of three endogenous isomers, BVIXα, BVIXβ, and BVIXδ.

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.

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.

Antimony is a critical raw material in Europe wherein for 43% of its market share it is applied in the form of antimony trioxide as a fire retardant in plastics. Currently, antimony recycling from waste plastics does not take place and has been scarcely studied. In this work, a process was developed to extract antimony from a soft PVC material and recover it as SbClO.
