Description
Hayet Edziri and co-workers analyze the seed oil of a flax species and test its biological effects, in a 2026 paper. The oil is rich in unsaturated fatty acids, led by alpha-linolenic acid. The team checked its action against bacteria, biofilms, blood clotting, and a starch-digesting enzyme.
The oil killed several bacteria, including resistant strains, and blocked biofilm growth strongly in one species. It lengthened clotting times, above all through the intrinsic pathway. It also blocked the starch enzyme at a level comparable to a standard diabetes drug in lab tests. Computer docking suggested how two of its fatty acids might bind bacterial targets.
