OLEOCANTHAL UND DIE FORSCHUNG

Im Jahr 2012 entwickelte ein Forscherteam der Fakultät für Pharmazie der Nationalen und Kapodistrianischen Universität Athen School of Pharmacy der Nationalen und Kapistrischen Universität Athen eine präzise Methode zur Messung phenolischer Verbindungen Oleocanthal, in Olivenöl.

In der Folge haben zahlreiche internationale Studien die therapeutischen Eigenschaften von Oleocanthal aus nativem Olivenöl extra aus früher Ernte bestätigt.

PRÄZISE MESSUNG VON OLEOCANTHAL

Ein weiterer Meilenstein folgte 2012: Ein Forschungsteam für Pharmakognosie und Naturstoffchemie an der Universität Athen hat eine Methode zur genauen Messung phenolischer Verbindungen in Olivenöl, einschließlich Oleocanthal, entwickelt. Das Team wandte eine zuvor entwickelte Methode an und erweiterte sie, um bestimmte Formen von Oleuropein und Ligostrid-Aglykonen zu messen.

VIELVERSPRECHENDE ENTDECKUNGEN IN DER MEDIZIN

Seit diesen Entdeckungen sind die Hoffnungen und die Forschung rund um Oleocanthal stetig gewachsen. Zahlreiche renommierte Studien untersuchen inzwischen den möglichen Nutzen - insbesondere im Zusammenhang mit neurodegenerativen Erkrankungen, Krebs und chronisch entzündlichen Erkrankungen.
