Summary: Toc-loaded particles prepared by different viscosities of EC demonstrated antioxidative effects, with antioxidant activity increasing with EC viscosity. The interaction between EC and tocopherol was mainly through hydrogen bonds, with EC effectively retaining Toc's thermal degradation to enhance antioxidant activity. Two potential antioxidative mechanisms were proposed: Toc being fixed in the network structure of loaded particles formed by EC as a barrier against degradation, and EC and Toc acting at different stages of lipid oxidation to jointly exhibit antioxidative effects.

Summary: In this study, casein was used as a carrier system for alpha-tocopherol, forming an amphiphilic self-assembling micellar nanostructure with ultrasound treatment. The UV-Vis spectra of alpha-TOC/CN nanoparticles complexes varied with different ultrasonic treatments, indicating improved stability of alpha-TOC and stronger antioxidant activity of the nanoparticles compared to free samples.

Summary: This study fabricated alpha-tocopherol loaded oleogels using soybean oil and monostearin as the oleogelator, and explored the protective effect of different concentrations of monostearin in preserving alpha-tocopherol. The results showed that increasing monostearin concentration improved the physicochemical characteristics and stability of the oleogels, as well as enhanced the light stability of alpha-tocopherol. These findings are important for the development of alpha-tocopherol loaded oleogels for food applications and nutraceutical delivery.

Summary: The study aimed to evaluate the protective potential of a prepared eco-friendly Taif rose oil nanoemulsion (ROSE-NANO) against UVB-induced photoaging. It was found that the application of ROSE-NANO-loaded emulgel resulted in superior antiaging effects compared to ROSE emulgel, as evidenced by improved cell activity, decreased inflammation markers concentration, and prevention of collagen fragmentation.

Summary: This study investigates the stability and antioxidant potential of α-tocopherol and γ-oryzanol at different concentrations. The results show that the addition of minor constituents increases the particle size and decreases lipolysis extent. Oxygen radical absorption capacity exhibits good antioxidant activity in the small intestine and micelles, while the cellular antioxidant activity results indicate unsatisfactory antioxidant activity in cells.

Summary: Glaucoma, the third leading cause of blindness worldwide, is primarily characterized by elevated intraocular pressure. Prolonged high intraocular pressure damages retinal cells and current treatments primarily focus on reducing intraocular pressure. Researchers have developed a novel nanoemulsion that prolongs ocular retention and effectively mitigates retinal cell damage associated with glaucoma.

Summary: This study investigated the potential use of enzyme-modified high-PS lecithin in combination with alpha-tocopherol to extend the lag phase of oil-in-water emulsions. The combination of enzyme-modified high-PS lecithins and alpha-tocopherol showed synergistic antioxidant activity and could be a commercially viable strategy to control lipid oxidation in emulsions.
