“…Corresponding results showed that the antioxidant activity of these three substances increased with the increase of concentration in the range of 1-5 mg/ml, and CDPE had higher antioxidant activity. Furthermore, Biondo et al [7] analyzed antioxidant capacity of spices, herbal and citrus essential oils by DPPH, ABTS, FRAP and ORAC assays, with clove and cinnamon essential oils found to exhibit higher antioxidant activity. Besides, according to the results of GC-MS to identify active ingredients in essential oils, eugenol and caryophyllene were mainly contained in clove and cinnamon essential oils.…”

Reactive oxygen species (ROS) function significantly in cell signal transduction and homeostasis. High ROS concentration can cause oxidative damage to cells and lead to various diseases consequently. Significantly, antioxidants can scavenge free radicals and reduce the risk of cardiovascular diseases, heart diseases and cancer. In the present study, a review was carried out concerning current methods for evaluating antioxidant activity, focusing on cellular determining antioxidant activity, in combination with the investigation of evaluation models of antioxidant activity established by different cell lines, which may provide a reference for further evaluation of antioxidant activity by establishing cell models.

“…Two popular spices are clove ( Eugenia caryophyllus ) and cinnamon ( Cinnamomum zeylanicum ). The essential oils (EOs) extracted from clove and cinnamon have high antioxidant power due to the presence of phenolic groups (Biondo et al., ; Ghosh, Basu, Adhikari & Roy, ).…”

This study evaluated the addition (0.35 and 0.70 g/kg feed) of clove (EOcl) or cinnamon (EOci) essential oils to Nile tilapia feed for 45 days to assess animal performance, antioxidant capacity and lipid oxidation in fillets. The design was completely randomised with five treatments and three replicates. Antioxidant capacity was determined by the oxygen radical absorbance capacity (ORAC FL ), 2,2-diphenyl-1picrylhydrazylhydrate (DPPH), ferric reducing ability power (FRAP) and 2,2'-azino-bis (3-ethylbenzothiazoline-6-sulphonic acid) (ABTS) assays, and lipid oxidation was determined by the thiobarbituric acid-reactive substances (TBARs) assay. Animal performance was not altered by adding the essential oils. The fillets treated with 0.35 g/kg of EOcl presented higher antioxidant capacity in the L-ORAC FL assay and a 40.3% reduction in lipid oxidation, whereas the EOci provided a pro-oxidant effect relative to the control treatment. Based on these results, adding 0.35 g/kg of EOcl to the diet for 45 days before slaughter increased the antioxidant capacity and reduced the lipid oxidation of the fillets, contributing to product quality without altering animal performance.

“…Clove oil (Syzygium aromaticum) is enriched in eugenol, which was reported as having antimicrobial properties [14]. Vanilla (Vanilla planifolia) and thyme (Thymus vulgaris) are enriched in vanillin and thymol, respectively, which were reported as having antimicrobial [15] and antioxidant activity [16]. Cashew nut oil (Anacardium occidentale) and castor oil (Ricinus communis), which are enriched in cardanol, cardol and anacardic acid, were also reported as having antimicrobial properties [17].…”

Background The use of synthetic compounds as growth promoters in animal production, is now limited or even banned by health agencies globally due to human safety concerns. In feedlot cattle, when using high grain diets, it is necessary to supplement the diet with compounds capable of modulating the rumen in order to reduce the incidence of acidosis and improve growth. In this context, natural substances have become promising substitutes. The objective of this study was to evaluate the effects of a natural additive blend (NA) on animal performance, the rumen microbiome and ingestive behavior in 40 young bulls.Results The initial and final average body weight was similar (P > 0.05) for all diets, although average daily gain increased linearly (P < 0.01) when NA was fed. However, feed efficiency improved linearly (P < 0.05) by including NA in the diet. Principal volatile fatty acid: acetic, butyric, isovaleric and valeric decreased linearly (P < 0.02) following NA addition. Similarly, NA addition linearly decreased (P < 0.02) the acetate/propionate ratio. The propionate and isobutyric acid concentrations showed a positive quadratic effect (P < 0.05). Furthermore, NA addition reduced ammonia concentrations (P < 0.001) and ruminal pH was not affected (P > 0.05) by the diets. The rumen microbiome was significantly different between beef cattle fed the different treatments (P < 0.05), with a reduction in the archaea, and within the Clostridium, Robinsoniella, Acidaminococcus, Acetitomaculum, Succinimonas and Weissella (P < 0.05) seen when NA was fed. The functional capacity of the rumen microbiome was affected following NA supplementation. Overall, we observed Aldehyde oxidase/xanthine dehydrogenase, molybdopterin binding; RecG, N-terminal antiparallel four helix bundle; Transposase, ISC1217; Restriction endonuclease, type II, XamI; Acyl-protein synthetase, LuxE; ABC-2 transporter; which could be related to the natural additives mechanism of action.Conclusions Animal performance was improved in a dose-dependent manner by natural additive addition to the diet of bulls. These beneficial effects are correlated to changes in the rumen microbiome. Our findings suggest that the natural additive blend used in this study could be used as an alternative natural substitute to synthetic antibiotics for animal production.
