What is the polar fraction of oil extracted from 160 °C roasted seeds?
It was found that the polar fraction of oil extracted from 160 °C-roasted seeds was better than other oils in terms of DPPH, ABTS, FRAP, and ORAC assays (125, 199, and 122 ¦Ìmol TE/ 100 g), while the whole oil of cold pressed flaxseed had the highest values of DPPH assay (179 ¦Ìmol TE/100 g).
Does flaxseed oil reduce melanoma growth?
Flaxseed oil reduced the growth of a murine cell line of melanoma B16-BL6 in a dose-dependent manner. Treatment of B16-BL6 melanoma cells with 0.3% (v/v) as a low dose of flaxseed oil for 4 days reduced the number of cells by ca. 50%, while treatment with 0.9% (v/v) as a high dose completely inhibited cells growth.
