Psidium guajava L. has gained a special attention as health plant due to the presence of phenolic compounds. Box-Behnken design (BBD) has been applied for the extraction of target compounds from guava leaves via sonotrode ultrasound-assisted extraction (UAE). Different extraction times (5, 30, and 55 min), ratios of ethanol/water (50, 75, and 100% (v/v)), and ultrasound (US) power (80, 240, and 400 W) were tested to find their effect on the sum of phenolic compound (SPC), flavonols and flavan-3-ols via HPLC-ESI-QqQ-MS, and antioxidant activity (DPPH and TEAC assays). The best process conditions were as follows: 40 min, 60% ethanol/water (v/v), and 200 W. Established method has been used to extract phenolic compounds in two guava leaves varieties (pyrifera and pomifera). Pyrifera var. showed greater values of the SPC via HPLC-ESI-QqQ-MS (49.7 mg/g leaf dry weight (d.w.)), flavonols (12.51 mg/g d.w.), flavan-3-ols (7.20 mg/g d.w.), individual phenolic compounds, and antioxidant activity (8970 ± 5 and 465 ± 6 μmol Trolox/g leaf d.w, respectively) than pomifera var. Conventional extraction showed lower amounts of phenolic compounds (7.81 ± 0.03 and 4.64 ± 0.01 mg/g leaf d.w. for flavonols and flavan-3ols, respectively) in comparison to the ultrasound-assisted ones.  相似文献

In this study, response surface methodology was used to optimize the extraction temperature (25–75 °C) and ethanol concentration (0–70 %, ethanol/water, v/v) to maximize the extraction of total phenolic compounds (TPC) from araticum pulp. The efficiency of the extraction process was monitored over time, and equilibrium conditions were reached between 60–90 min. A second-order polynomial model was adequately fit to the experimental data with an adjusted R 2 of 0.9793 (p < 0.0001) showing that the model could efficiently predict the TPC content. Optimum extraction conditions were ethanol concentration of 46 % (v/v), extraction temperature of 75 °C and extraction time of 90 min. Under the optimum conditions, the araticum pulp showed high TPC content (4.67 g GAE/100 g dw) and also high antioxidant activity in the different assays used (46.56 μg/mL, 683.65 μmol TE/g and 1593.72 μmol TE/g for DPPH IC50, TEAC and T-ORACFL, respectively). From our extraction procedure, we successfully recovered a significantly higher amount of TPC compared to other studies in the literature to date (1.5–22-fold higher). Furthermore, TPC and antioxidant activity were present in the fruit in levels that are difficult to find in other common fruits. These results expose a potential approach for improving human health through consumption of araticum fruit.  相似文献

The objective of this work was to study chemical and nutritional aspects of different fractions of Prosopis alba. Flours from whole pod, pericarp (pulp) and seeds were obtained. Polyphenols were mainly located in pulp but antioxidant activity was higher in whole pod flour and seeds. In seeds, the fraction with the highest polyphenols and antioxidant activity was the seed coat or testa. Protein content was higher in whole pod flour (5.81 %) than in pulp flour (3.52 %), presenting the seed an appreciable amount 33.6 %. These proteins were composed by monomer subunits of 85, 67, 38, 16 and 14 kDa and no prolamins and anti-tryptic activity were detected. P. alba flours presented high content of soluble sugars, mainly composed by sucrose, and also high amount of insoluble dietary fiber. The major mineral was potassium. The whole pod, due to the contribution of seeds, contained high amount of calcium, magnesium, iron and zinc, all indispensable minerals for human nutrition. Therefore, P. alba flours, mainly containing the seeds, constitute nutritional ingredients for bakery and gluten free products.  相似文献

The phenolic composition in dried Myrica rubra fruits, leaves and bark were investigated for evaluation of its contribution to the antioxidant activity. The fruits, leaves and bark have the abundant phenolic compounds with the total phenolic content of 0.673, 0.276 and 0.136 mg/g (GA equivalents/FW), respectively. Ten phenolic compounds were isolated and identified in methanol extracts of Myrica rubra fruits by GC–MS analysis. Less phenolic compounds were found in leaves and bark than in fruits. However, the leaves and bark contain much higher concentrations of the trans-resveratrol over 100 μg/g than in fruits. The total antioxidant activities against the ·DPPH radical of those three samples were 0.438, 0.184 and 0.092 mg/g (Trolox equivalents/FW), respectively. The quantitative results indicated that a good correlation between the total antioxidant activity, total phenolic contents, and abundance of individual phenolic compound in Myrica rubra plants.  相似文献

A Box–Behnken design (Extraction-time, pulse-cycle, sonication-amplitude) was employed to extract phenolic compounds from Justicia spicigera leaves by ultrasonic-assisted extraction. The muicle leaves extracts were analyzed measuring total phenolic compounds and antioxidant capacity. According to response surface methodology the optimal conditions of ultrasonic-assisted extraction to obtain the highest soluble phenolic content were 2 min (extraction time) for 0.7 s (pulse cycle) at 55% of sonication amplitude. Under these optimal conditions, the total phenolic content was higher when was used ultrasonic-assisted extraction (54.02 mg/g) than stirring (46.46 mg/g) and thermal decoction (47.76 mg/g); however, the antioxidant capacity from J. spicigera extracts did not increase by ultrasonic-assisted extraction. The extracts or aqueous infusions from J. spicigera leaves are used for therapeutic proposes, therefore the ultrasonic-assisted extraction is a useful technology to improve the extraction of phytochemicals from J. spicigera leaves.  相似文献

The effects of high-pressure processing (HPP 300 MPa/15 min, 400 MPa/5 min, 500 MPa/2.5 min, and 600 MPa/1 min) and high-temperature/short-time processing (HTST 110 °C/8.6 s), with or without blanching, on mango pulp were comparatively evaluated in terms of the antioxidant compounds, antioxidant capacity, sugars, and color. Blanching treatment significantly increased the total phenol content and the antioxidant capacity of mango pulp, but did not change the levels of L-ascorbic acid, carotenoids, sugars, and visual color (total color difference, △E?<?2.00). Both HPP and HTST treatments significantly increased the total phenol content and antioxidant capacity of un-blanched mango pulp, but no significant changes occurred in the blanched mango pulp. HPP did not affect the levels of L-ascorbic acid, carotenoids, and sugars in mango pulp regardless of blanching. However, HTST significantly decreased the fructose and glucose levels, as well as induced the isomerization of β-carotene, with the increase in 13-cis-β-carotene accompanied by the decrease in all-trans-β-carotene. Moreover, HPP-treated mango pulp consistently showed lower △E values than those HTST-treated samples, regardless of blanching.  相似文献

The aroma generating volatile components profile and in vitro antioxidant capacities of different aromatic rice cultivars was determined by GC–MS analysis and in terms of DPPH scavenging activity, lipid peroxidation inhibition, phosphomolybdenum reduction and reducing power assay. The total phenolic content including both free and bound forms in the analyzed aromatic rice cultivars, Mushki budgi (1.62 mg GAE/g), Mushki kandi (1.63 mg GAE/g) and Kamad (1.60 mg GAE/g) were found double the amount as compared to non-aromatic Koshkari (0.86 mg GAE/g) cultivar. The aromatic rice cultivars had also shown higher total flavonoid content and antioxidant activity than non-aromatic rice cultivar (Koshkari). The GC–MS results indicated 21-aromatic compounds present in sufficient quantities in aromatic cultivars and some of them were unique to these cultivars. Among the compounds identified, aldehydes were found in higher quantity followed by alkanes, ketones and esters. Among the aromatic rice cultivars, Mushki budgi and Mushki kandi were found possessing higher quantity of flavoring components such as benzaldehyde, a carcinostatic agent. The cultivars Mushki budgi and Mushki kandi indicated positive correlation of TPC, TFC and the in vitro antioxidant components largely, while the less aromatic Kamad, correlate with only two components viz DPPH and lipid peroxidation.  相似文献

Lettuce is often involved in foodborne outbreaks caused by pathogenic Escherichia coli. Current control strategies have often proved ineffective to ensure safe food production. For that reason, the present study compared the efficacy of tannin extracts and chlorine treatments on the reduction of E. coli ATCC 25922 adhered to lettuce leaves. E. coli was inoculated artificially on leaf surfaces of fresh crisp lettuce. Effectiveness of water, chlorine (200 mg/L), and three commercial available tannin extracts from Acacia mearnsii De Wild. (tannin AQ (2 %, w/v), tannin SG (1 %, v/v) and tannin SM (1 %, v/v)) treatments was evaluated using the viable plate count method and scanning electron microscopy (SEM). SEM results revealed that bacterial cells are attached as individual cells and in clusters to the leaf surface after 2 h of incubation. Biofilm formation was observed after 24 h of incubation. The tannin SM treatment was able to reduce counts in approximately 2 log CFU/cm2 on leaf segments. However, treatment was less effective in the reduction of E. coli counts after 24 h of incubation when compared to 2 h incubation of the same extract. The results suggest that the tannin SM extract diminishes E. coli counts adhered to and under biofilm formation on lettuce leaves and its effect is similar to the use of chlorine solutions.  相似文献

The cytotoxicity of phenolic antioxidants had attracted marked attention, posing serious challenges to food safety. This paper presented a screening method for two major phenolic antioxidants (butylated hydroxytoluene and tert-butylhydroquinone) added in edible oils. To specifically visualize the targeted compounds after developing with toluene/ethyl acetate/methanol 8:1:1 (v/v/v) to 70 mm solvent front, the plate was subjected to a standardized 1,1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl assay. In addition to synoptical eye inspection, accurate quantification was realized by modified densitometric measurements: fluorescence mode, excitation wavelength 530 nm (D2 and W lamp) without optical filter, which offered satisfactory sensitivity (8.5–17.5 mg/kg) and acceptable linearity (R2?>?0.999 within 50–200 ng/zone). Moreover, the established method was validated with edible oil samples, against EU Directive 2006/52/EC. Apart from that, the unambiguous confirmation of positive results was conveniently achieved by TLC-MS interface-mediated mass spectrometry. Featuring the merits of screening conception, the proposed method not only reached the goal of accurate quantification and conclusive identification of multi-phenolic antioxidants, but also excellently balanced the simplicity, detectability, and throughput of the screening workup. Therefore, it might be an attractive alternative to conventional methods.  相似文献

The purpose of this study was to investigate the inhibitory effect of essential oils (thyme, clove and cinnamon) in vapour phase against the major fungal diseases of mango in vitro and in vivo. Thyme oil vapour (5 μL/Petri plate) completely inhibited the mycelial growth of Colletotrichum gloeosporioides and Lasiodiplodia theobromae under in vitro condition. Thyme oil vapour at 66.7 μL L?1 significantly reduced artificially inoculated C. gloeosporioides and L. theobromae in mangoes for 4 days. GC/MS analysis revealed thymol, eugenol and benzofuran, 3-methyl as the dominant compounds in thyme, clove and cinnamon oils, respectively. The activities of defence and antioxidant enzymes including peroxidase, chitinase, phenylalanine ammonia-lyase, β-1,3-glucanase, catalase and superoxide dismutase were enhanced by thyme oil (66.7 μL L?1) treatment and also help to maintain the phenolic content. Hence, postharvest thyme oil vapour treatment may prove to be an alternative means of controlling disease in mangoes.  相似文献

This study aimed to identify the effects of soaking time and fermentation temperature and period on the total phenolics, total flavonoids, and antioxidant activity of maesil extract. Green maesil fruits were fermented with brown sugar at 15 or 25°C for one year. After soaking maesil for 90 days, the fruits were removed and the remaining liquid was further ripened for 275 days, whereas other samples continued to ferment with maesil until 365 days. Total phenolics, total flavonoids, and antioxidant activities of the extracts fermented with maesil for one year were higher compared with those wherein the fruits were removed at day 90. The total phenolic and total flavonoid contents were relatively higher at 15°C, whereas the ABTS and ferric-reducing antioxidant power (FRAP) activities were significantly higher at 25°C. The total phenolic and total flavonoid contents highly correlated with the antioxidant activities. These results show that fermentation temperature plays a critical role in enhancing the phenolic compounds and antioxidant activity of maesil extract.  相似文献

Potatoes are an important food in many regions of the world and are commonly used in a variety of food products. Thermal transition and thermo-physical properties of potatoes are important in order to design efficient food processes and select appropriate storage conditions. In this study, we determined the thermal transitions and thermophysical properties of raw and blanched/par-fried potato for a temperature range of ??32 to 21.1 °C. Using differential scanning calorimetry, we found an initial freezing point (Tf) at ??1.8?±?0.1 °C, an onset of melting (Tm) at ??9.9?±?0.2 °C and an unfreezable water content (Xw) for maximally freeze-concentrated raw potato at 0.21 kg water/kg potato. Corresponding values for blanched/par-fried potatoes were ??0.9?±?0.1 °C, ??11.0?±?0.2 °C and 0.18 kg water/kg potato. Results show that an increase in solids content decreased Tf of both raw and blanched potatoes. We modelled the relationship between them using the Chen model. The apparent specific heat (Capp) increased around Tf to 31.7?±?1.13 kJ/kg K for raw potato and 26.7?±?0.62 kJ/kg K for blanched/par-fried potato. For frozen raw potato at ??32 °C, thermal diffusivity (α) was 0.89?±?0.01?×?10??6 m2/s and thermal conductivity (k), 1.82?±?0.14 W/m K, respectively. These values were higher for frozen raw potato than for the unfrozen raw potato (0.15?±?0.01?×?10??6 m2/s and 0.56?±?0.08 W/m K, respectively at 21.1 °C). The apparent density (ρ) of frozen raw potato (992?±?4.00 kg/m3 at ??32 °C) was less than that for unfrozen raw potato (1053?±?4.00 kg/m3 at 21.1 °C), and a similar trend was obtained for blanched/par-fried potato (993?±?2.00 kg/m3 at ??32 °C and 1188?±?7.00 kg/m3 at 21.1 °C, respectively). This study established a correlation between thermo-physical properties and temperature. Findings may be used to inform the design and optimization of freezing processes and frozen storage for potato products.  相似文献

Juices from two varieties of cactus pear, a green (Opuntia ficus-indica) and a red (Opuntia streptacantha), were obtained and concentrated by evaporation. Both fruit varieties and their juices at different concentrations were characterized. Green cactus pears had significantly higher amount of pulp than red cactus pears; the peel of O. ficus-indica represented only 38 versus 52 % of the fruit for the O. streptacantha. Both varieties had no significant differences on moisture, density, pH, and titratable acidity, in contrary to soluble solids. Juice was concentrated under vacuum conditions to reach a final concentration of 42, 53–55, and 58–60 °Brix, respectively, and stored under refrigeration (10 °C) during 4 weeks. Physicochemical properties of the pears and juices were determined as fresh items (time zero) and every week for the concentrate juices through storage; similarly, flow parameters were measured at 10 and 25 °C. Concentrate density (1160–1283 kg/m3) was mainly affected by final soluble solids, while pH and acidity were affected differently depending on the variety. Concentrated juices at 42 °Brix were considered with Newtonian behavior with a viscosity of 2–22 mPa s, while those at higher concentrations were of pseudoplastic nature (n < 1.0 and K > 69 mPa sn). Power Law model fitted better the flow behavior than Herschel-Bulkley model of concentrates of both varieties. Temperature, solid concentration, and/or storage time affected the consistency coefficient (K) and flow index (n) depending on the cactus pear variety. Overall, those concentrated juices from O. streptacantha were more stable and exhibited lower apparent viscosity.  相似文献

This study aimed to devise an environment-friendly and effective, yet simple and practicable, antioxidant extraction and encapsulation method from Riceberry bran, whose extract was used thereafter for developing highly efficient antioxidant capsules. Ethanolic Riceberry bran extracts with high total phenolic content, total flavonoid content, total anthocyanin content, and antioxidant activity (using DPPH radical scavenging activity and ferric reducing antioxidant power assay) were obtained using ultrasonic-assisted extraction. The optimum conditions for producing the capsules, such as types of gelatin, concentrations of gelatin, and the Riceberry bran extract concentrations, were studied. Capsules produced by incorporating 1% (w/v) of acid-treated gelatin (type A) and 1% (w/v) of Riceberry bran extract yielded higher chemical properties. When dispersed in water at 37 °C, the capsules exhibited a high release of antioxidants. Moreover, the capsule showed a lower degradation rate of antioxidants under simulated gastrointestinal conditions compared to the crude extract.  相似文献

This study analysed the convective (60, 70 and 80° C), microwave (120 and 350 W) and freeze drying methods in terms of their effects on the drying characteristics, colour, total phenolic content (TPC) and antioxidant capacity of kiwi slices. Nine different mathematical models were applied to experimental data to achieve the most accurate calculation for drying curves. The Midilli et al. and Wang and Singh models proved to be the most suitable at explaining the drying kinetics of kiwi samples as compared to other models according to the statistical tests. Each drying method was significantly affected by colour parameters (L*, a*, b*, C, α and ΔE). The dried samples exhibited respectively 5–49 % and 10–47 % less TPC and antioxidant capacity compared to the fresh sample. According to the correlation analysis conducted between TPC and antioxidant capacity for kiwi slices, there is a positive correlation (R 2  = 0.7796). Microwave dried samples at 120 W particularly had the lowest TPC and antioxidant capacity. Freeze drying method yielded the closest values with respect to colour values, total phenol content and antioxidant capacity to those of fresh samples when compared to the other methods.  相似文献

The consumption of apple chips is increasing in the last decades because of the consumer’s preferences towards healthy snacks. However, the enzymatic browning, which is attributed mainly to polyphenol oxidase (PPO, EC 1.10.3.1) activity, negatively affects the sensory, nutritional, and antioxidant properties of dried apples as a consequence of the oxidation of phenolic substrates during post-harvest stages. The antibrowning and antioxidant effects of dipping pre-treatments with unripe grape juice as well as reference formulations including a mixture of 1% w/v ascorbic acid and 1% w/v citric acid, 6% w/v NatureSeal®, and 0.1% w/v sodium metabisulfite were evaluated by spectrophotometric and colorimetric assays on dried “Golden Delicious” apple slices. Based on HPLC analysis, the treated apple slices were enriched with bioactive compounds which effectively improved antioxidant capacity and limited enzymatic browning by increasing lightness, reducing color change, and inhibiting PPO activity. Hence, the juice of unripe grapes recovered as agricultural wastes during bunch thinning of vineyards could be proposed as a safe, inexpensive, and eco-friendly alternative to conventional antibrowning treatments in apple processing.  相似文献

A method to improve wood durability using natural extracts was evaluated. Wood deterioration is a condition caused by several abiotic and biotic factors including fungal contamination. To date, approaches aiming at the reduction of these contaminants mainly involve the use of chemicals agents. Natural products could represent an alternative strategy. Aqueous extracts of Punica granatum L. (pomegranate) peel and Melia azedarach L. barks were evaluated as antifungal agents to improve natural durability of beech wood and maritime pine. To evaluate the effect of treatments under simulated accelerated ageing of wood by natural conditions, impregnation and leaching tests were performed. Results demonstrated that samples impregnated with pomegranate or M. azedarach solutions notably increased the biological resistance of wood in a dose-dependent manner. These results were confirmed by the reduction in weight losses in treated samples even after 6 weeks of fungal exposure. Moreover, after leaching tests, 20 and 7% (w/v) of pomegranate and M. azedarach extract solutions were demonstrated as the better concentrations to enhance wood durability. Total phenol content and characterization of the phenolic compounds in both, natural extracts and wood samples were analyzed by Folin–Ciocalteu assay and HPLC-DAD. In conclusion, it was demonstrated that the present method can be considered as an effective treatment to increase wood durability while it proposes the valorization of natural extractives in wood industry.  相似文献

In this study, antioxidant activity of absolute ethanol, 50 % ethanol and water extracts of two species of seaweeds namely, Fucus serratus and Polysiphonia fucoides were evaluated for their ability to retard lipid and protein oxidation in minced mackerel. Mackerel mince added with 0.5 g/kg of extracts was prepared. For comparison, BHT at 0.2 g/kg and a control with no added extracts were also prepared. The samples were stored at 5 °C for 8 days, and sampling was done at time 0, 1, 2, 4, 5 and 8 days. The 50 % ethanolic extracts of P. fucoides were found to be very effective in retarding lipid and protein oxidation, as it resulted in low levels of peroxide value, volatiles and carbonyl compounds and protected against the loss of α-tocopherol and tryptophan residues. In spite of the higher phenolic content, the absolute ethanol extracts of both species showed a pro-oxidative tendency in minced mackerel. Water extract with lowest phenolic content showed no antioxidant effect in minced mackerel. In conclusion, the 50 % ethanolic extracts of P. fucoides can be a potential source of natural antioxidants, as these extracts have antioxidant activities similar to synthetic antioxidants such as BHT. However, the extent of protection offered by these extracts against protein oxidation was not clear and further studies are needed to understand the nature of the interaction between proteins and these extracts.  相似文献

Agro-food industries require sustainable and profitable alternatives to disposal of their by-products. Grape pomace is a winemaking residue that represents a low-cost natural source of phenolic compounds with recognized antioxidant properties. In this work, Fourier-transform near-infrared (FT-NIR) spectroscopy and chemometric analysis were exploited to the characterization of red grape pomace composition (content of seeds and skins) and chemical properties as total phenolic content (TPC) and total antioxidant capacity (TAC). Raw (n?=?96) and milled (n?=?96) samples were evaluated by NIR spectroscopy and by classical batchwise assays, Folin-Ciocalteu, and ABTS for TPC and TAC, respectively, after different storage times (1 week to 2 months). Grape seeds had higher levels of TPC and TAC per sample dry weight when compared to grape skins. FT-NIR spectra of raw and milled samples were calibrated against content (%) of skins and seeds, TPC, and TAC using partial least squares (PLS) modeling. Spectral wavelength selection and latent variables were optimized for the lowest root-mean-square errors. PLS models’ results showed higher linearity for milled samples (0.936?>?R 2?>?0.914) when compared to raw samples (0.885?>?R 2?>?0.928). The range error ratio (RER) was between 10 and 14 for raw samples, while for milled grape pomace, it ranged from 15 to 18. Results confirmed that NIR spectroscopy can be applied to winemaking residues with virtually no sample processing needed to estimate the content of grape seeds and skins, the total phenolics, and total antioxidant capacity. Therefore, FT-NIR technique represents a non-destructive and eco-friendly technique to foster added value of grape pomace residues before time-consuming extraction steps are performed.  相似文献

Chitosan is an eco-friendly alternative to synthetic fungicides for managing postharvest decay of fruits and vegetables. The ability of chitosan to enhance resistance to postharvest gray (Botrytis cinerea) and blue mold (Penicillium expansum) in kiwifruit was investigated. The gene expression and activity of antioxidant enzymes, and total phenolic compounds were determined. Results showed that chitosan at 5 g/L significantly inhibited gray and blue mold in kiwifruit stored at 25 and 4 °C. Chitosan significantly induced the gene expression of catalase, superoxide dismutase, and ascorbate peroxidase, as well as increased the enzyme activity. Moreover, chitosan markedly increased the content of total phenolic compounds in kiwifruit. Importantly, chitosan also exhibited beneficial effects on fruit quality. Taken together, the ability of chitosan to reduce mold in stored kiwifruit may be associated with the elicitation of host defense response. These results have practical implications for the application of chitosan to reduce postharvest losses.  相似文献
