General description
Sesame oil may be used in the production of biodiesel and may serve as a viable alternative for the diesel fuel. It acts as an antioxidant having neuroprotective activity on brain hippocampus of rat in focal cerebral ischemia, when given as a dietary supplement. Consumption of sesame oil has a beneficial effect on blood glucose, glycosylated hemoglobin, lipid peroxidation, and antioxidant levels in diabetic rats.
Application
Sesame oil is suitable:
- for dissolving free testosterone
- for the preparation of tamoxifen i.p. injection
- for dissolving aromatizable androgen testosterone and non-aromatizable androgen 5α-dihydrotestosterone
- as a delivery vehicle for the injection of estradiol benzoate
- for dissolving progesterone and estradiol-17β
- for dissolving semisynthetic form of acetyl-11-keto-β-boswellic acid
Used in research applications as delivery vehicle for fat-soluble compounds including steroidal hormones and toxins. Sesame oil has antioxidant properties and was shown to protect against lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-stimulated oxidative stress in animal models.

Oxidative stress may be regarded as an imbalance between free radical production and opposing antioxidant defenses. Free radical oxidative stress is implicated in rat cerebral ischemia and naturaceutical antioxidants are dietary supplements that have been reported to have neuroprotective activity.
