Characterization of Jamaican Delonix regia and Cassia fistula Seed Extracts.

Biochemistry research international

Goldson Barnaby A, Reid R, Rattray V, Williams R, Denny M.
PMID: 27034834
Biochem Res Int. 2016;2016:3850102. doi: 10.1155/2016/3850102. Epub 2016 Mar 10.

Delonix regia and Cassia fistula seed extracts were evaluated for their antioxidant activity, total phenolics, ash, zinc and fatty acid content. Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FTIR) was utilized to assess the chemical functionalities present within the seeds. Antioxidant activity...

BACKGROUND: Cadmium uptake and distribution, as well as its effects on lipid composition was investigated in almond seedlings (Prunus dulcis) grown in culture solution supplied with two concentrations of Cd (50 and 150 μM).RESULTS: The accumulation of Cd increased...

Solid lipid nanoparticle: an efficient carrier for improved ocular permeation of voriconazole.

Drug development and industrial pharmacy

Kumar R, Sinha VR.
PMID: 27143048
Drug Dev Ind Pharm. 2016 Dec;42(12):1956-1967. doi: 10.1080/03639045.2016.1185437. Epub 2016 May 20.

This research focuses on the fabrication and evaluation of solid lipid nanoparticles (SLNs) for improved ocular delivery of voriconazole (VCZ). Compritol and palmitic acid were selected as lipid carriers based on drug solubility and partitioning behavior. Poloxamer and soya...

PMID: 25143856
Vet Med Int. 2014;2014:936091. doi: 10.1155/2014/936091. Epub 2014 Jul 20.

Total fatty acid composition of muscle lipids in some fish species (Cyprinus carpio (Işıklı Dam Lake), Tinca tinca (Işıklı Dam Lake), Scardinius erythrophthalmus (Işıklı Dam Lake), Cyprinus carpio (Karacaören Dam Lake), and Carassius carassius (Karacaören Dam Lake)) was determined...

Estradiol Uses Different Mechanisms in Astrocytes from the Hippocampus of Male and Female Rats to Protect against Damage Induced by Palmitic Acid.

Frontiers in molecular neuroscience

Frago LM, Canelles S, Freire-Regatillo A, Argente-Arizón P, Barrios V, Argente J, Garcia-Segura LM, Chowen JA.
PMID: 29114202
Front Mol Neurosci. 2017 Oct 24;10:330. doi: 10.3389/fnmol.2017.00330. eCollection 2017.

An excess of saturated fatty acids can be toxic for tissues, including the brain, and this has been associated with the progression of neurodegenerative diseases. Since palmitic acid (PA) is a free fatty acid that is abundant in the...

Measurement of long range attractive forces between hydrophobic surfaces produced by vapor phase adsorption of palmitic acid.

Soft matter

Eom N, Parsons DF, Craig VSJ.
PMID: 29143037
Soft Matter. 2017 Dec 06;13(47):8910-8921. doi: 10.1039/c7sm01563a.

Extensive research into the surface forces between hydrophobic surfaces has produced experimentally measured interaction forces that vary widely in range and in magnitude. This variability is attributed to interference from surface nanobubbles and the nature of the hydrophobic surface....

Comparative analysis of volatile metabolomics signals from melanoma and benign skin: a pilot study.

Metabolomics : Official journal of the Metabolomic Society

Abaffy T, Möller MG, Riemer DD, Milikowski C, DeFazio RA.
PMID: 24039618
Metabolomics. 2013;9(5):998-1008. doi: 10.1007/s11306-013-0523-z. Epub 2013 Mar 30.

The analysis of volatile organic compounds (VOC) as biomarkers of cancer is both promising and challenging. In this pilot study, we used an untargeted approach to compare volatile metabolomic signatures of melanoma and matched control non-neoplastic skin from the...

Characterization of chemicals mediating ovipositional host-plant finding byAmyelois transitella females.

Journal of chemical ecology

Phelan PL, Roelofs CJ, Youngman RR, Baker TC.
PMID: 24258809
J Chem Ecol. 1991 Mar;17(3):599-613. doi: 10.1007/BF00982129.

Ovipositional host-finding in the navel orangeworm,Amyelois transitella (Walker), is brought about by an in-flight response to host odors. Wind-tunnel studies of the response of gravid females to almonds showed that this response is mediated primarily by long-chain fatty acids,...

GC-MS quantification of fatty acid profile including trans FA in the locally manufactured margarines of Pakistan.

Food chemistry

Kandhro A, Sherazi ST, Mahesar SA, Bhanger MI, Younis Talpur M, Rauf A.
PMID: 26054282
Food Chem. 2008 Jul 01;109(1):207-11. doi: 10.1016/j.foodchem.2007.12.029. Epub 2007 Dec 23.

Ten margarine brands of Pakistan were analyzed for their fatty acid composition with emphasis on trans fatty acids (TFA) using GC-MS. Saturated, cis-monounsaturated and polyunsaturated fatty acids were present at 24.2-58.1, 5.7-35.4 and 3.8-37.4% of total fatty acids, respectively....

PMID: 26046098
Inflamm Cell Signal. 2014;1(6):e561. doi: 10.14800/ics.561.

We show that chronic high fat diet (HFD) feeding affects the hypothalamus of male but not female mice. In our study we demonstrate that palmitic acid and sphingolipids accumulate in the central nervous system of HFD-fed males. Additionally, we...
