Prevention of lipid oxidation needs special attention because a high proportion of fatty acids in broiler meat are unsaturated. A feeding experiment was conducted to evaluate the antioxidant effect of dietary addition of rosemary, chokeberry pomace, rosehip, or nettle in
Vitamin E is an essential micronutrient for humans and animals due to its antioxidant and non-antioxidant biological activities. The α-tocopherol acetate form is often used in foods and other products due to its high biological activity and chemical stability. In

A reduction in the formation of free radicals and oxidative stress might reduce the rate of bone loss and muscle wasting. The objective was to determine whether α-tocopherol intake or serum concentrations are associated with fracture risk in older women
European journal of medicinal chemistry, 46(4), 1222-1231 (2011-02-25)
In an effort to develop novel antioxidant as anticancer agents, a series of xanthones were prepared. In vitro screening, the synthetic xanthones revealed significant inhibitory effects on xanthine oxidase and ABTS radical-cation scavenging activity. The selective compounds 2 and 8
Vitamin E isoforms are essential nutrients that are widely used as dietary supplements and therapeutic agents for a variety of diseases. However, their pharmacokinetic (PK) properties remain poorly characterized, and high dosage animal studies may provide further information on their
Antioxidants protect biological systems from oxidative damage produced by oxygen-containing free radicals and from redoxactive transition metal ions such as iron, copper, and cadmium.
