Chemical Composition and Antioxidant Activity of Dates and Dates-Camel-Milk Mixtures as a Protective Meal against Lipid Peroxidation in Rats

Lead acetate toxicity on glucose level and liver enzymes ameliorated by camel's milk in wistar albino rat

“…Our study showed that lead acetate elevated the blood glucose level insignificantly, this comes in agreement with the results observed by AL-Humaid. 25 Similarly, present findings are also support the findings of Nabil, who have suggested that the elevations in blood levels may be due to increases in the rate of glucose transport from the tissues to blood or decreased rate removal of glucose from the blood to tissues. 26 The traditional believe in the Middle East is that regular consumption of camel milk helps in prevention and control of diabetes, it has also been reported that camel milk can have such properties.…”

“…30 Activity of AST increases in serum following tissue damage. 25 AST is present in both mitochondria and cytosol of liver cells, while ALT is found in cytosol only. However, it is worthwhile to note that ALT is more commonly used for screening of liver problems, as the AST level may also be increased as a result of deficiencies or diseases in other bodyorgans.…”

Safety methods for chlorpyrifos removal from date fruits and its relation with sugars, phenolics and antioxidant capacity of fruits

“…The loss of sugars from date fruits was increasing by extending the wash time. Sugars in Succary date fruits are fructose (9.17 %), glucose (12.45 %) and sucrose (35.94 %) (Al-Humaid et al 2010). These soluble sugars are easily to dissolve in washing solutions and continuously lost from fruits by extending wash time.…”

Phytochemical,Physicochemical, Anti-Nutritional And Fatty Acids Composition Of Soldier Termites (Coptotermes Gestroi) From Paikoro Local Governvernt, Niger State, Nigeria

“…While none of the crude extracts in this study had anthraquinones, only the methananolic extract contained flavonoids. In general, flavonoids have antioxidant potentials that enhance the body defence against pathogen induced free radical generation [29]. The absence of flavonoids in both the chloroform and petroleum ether extracts in this work might be due to the disparity in polarities of the solvents.…”
