This investigation aimed to explore the antioxidant potential of date fruit extract using butter as an oxidation substrate on the basis of certain instrumental, orthodox analytical techniques and sensory characteristics. The objectives of this study were to characterize the date extract for polyphenolic compounds, free radical scavenging activity and inhibition of nitric oxide macromolecules and to study the effect of various concentrations of the date palm extract on oxidative stability and sensory characteristics. The butter was added with date palm extract and compared with a control,...

Fatty acid composition of milk fat is characterized with higher proportions of saturated fatty acids. The increased knowledge of nutrition related to health disparities associated with high intake of saturated fatty acids have led to a considerable decline in the dairy products.
