234 results about "Tocotrienol" patented technology

The vitamin E family comprise four tocotrienols (alpha, beta, gamma, delta) and four tocopherols (alpha, beta, gamma, delta). The critical chemical structural difference between tocotrienols and tocopherols is that tocotrienols have unsaturated isoprenoid side chains with three carbon-carbon double bonds versus saturated side chains for tocopherols (see Figure).

Vitamin E tocotrienols inhibition of intracellularly obligate pathogen Chlamydia and methods of use

InactiveUS20060241174A1Reducing Chlamydia-induced blindnessLower blood pressureAntibacterial agentsBiocideControl cellLymph
This invention reveals the beneficial use of vitamin E tocotrienols for inhibition of chlamydial infections. Chlamydial infection levels in mouse macrophages treated with tocotrienol were decreased >50%, with concomitant aberrant pathogen development. The number of large and small inclusions in tocotrienol-versus-control cells was decreased 3-fold and 2-fold, respectively. When treated with delta tocotrienol, Chlamydia in human lymphocytes was inhibited by at least 2.6-fold in 1.5 days. Dietary delta tocotrienol inhibited Chlamydia infection and persistence in hypercholesterolemic patients with a corresponding drop in LDL. These studies demonstrate that tocotrienol lowers cholesterol, thus preventing or diminishing the cholesterol hijacking by Chlamydia obligatory for its infectivity and replication. Therefore, hypolipidemic agents used to treat cardiovascular diseases, metabolic syndrome, and diabetes are used as monotherapies, or in combination with tocotrienol to treat Chlamydia.

Recovery of phytonutrients from oils

The present invention relates to an improved and integrated process for the extraction and purification of tocotrienols or tocopherols, carotenoids and sterols from vegetable and other edible oils. Fatty acids in the vegetable oils are subjected to alcoholic osterification to form ester-rich layer that includes fatty acid alkyl esters, carotenoids, tocotrienols or tocopherols, and sterols. The advantages of this process are that the tocotrienols or tocopherols, carotenoids and sterols are produced efficiently without any substantial decomposition or degradation of these phytonutrients.
