In some Mediterranean areas traditional wild greens are responsible for a significant percentage of total dietary antioxidant intakes. Asparagus acutifolius L. (wild asparagus), Bryonia dioica Jacq. (white bryony) and Tamus communis L. (black bryony) are important examples of those edible wild greens widely consumed. This study aimed to determine the phenolic profile and composition of edible vernal early shoots of those species. Wild asparagus and black bryony revealed glycosides of flavonols as the main phenolic compounds, while white bryony contained C-glycosylated flavones. Black bryony was the wild green that possessed the highest content of phenolic compounds (2200 mg/kg). Amongst the 11 flavonols found in this sample, kaempferol glycosides were the main compounds (1760 mg/kg). In the sample of wild asparagus, quercetin 3-O-rutinoside was the main flavonol found (263 mg/kg). Five flavones and one flavonol were found in the white bryony sample, apigenin 6-C-glucoside-7-O-glucoside being the major compound (1550 mg/kg). 相似文献

Flavonols, betacyanins content and antioxidant activity of red-purple cactus Opuntia macrorhiza fruits, a promising cactus pear species, were evaluated in comparison to the well known cactus pear fruits of Opuntia ficus-indica. Flavonol profile was evaluated by HPLC-DAD prior to and after enzymatic hydrolysis (glycosides vs. aglycons). In addition betacyanins, responsible for the purple to red color of cactus pear fruits were also estimated and compared to Beta vulgaris ssp. (roots) and red O. ficus-indica fruits. In all cases, cactus fruit pulps showed no flavonols at all. While different derivatives of isorhamnetin glycosides were found in O. ficus-indica fruit's peel, isorhamnetin-3-O-rutinoside was the only compound in O. macrorhiza fruit. Correspondingly, antioxidant activity assays showed a high antioxidant activity of both, O. macrorhiza fruit's peel and pulp. With regard to betacyanins, O. macrorhiza fruit's peel and pulp provide a deep red-purple color, whose average impact is higher compared to red beet (B. vulgaris spp.) and about 8-fold higher than red fruits from O. ficus-indica. Supporting these results, estimation of color attributes (L*, a*, b*, C and H°) showed also a high color impact of both O. macrorhiza fruit's peel and pulp. 相似文献

Qualitative analysis of the ethyl acetate extracts from three bayberry cultivars, Xiangshan, Biqi and Dongkui, was performed by means of a hyphenated technique of HPLC coupled to photodiode array detection and electrospray ionization mass spectrometry (HPLC-DAD-ESIMS). Three phenolic compounds were identified (gallic acid, protocatechuic acid, and quercetin 3-glucoside) and seven others (two myricetin hexoside and two myricetin deoxyhexoside derivatives; quercetin hexoside and quercetin deoxyhexoside derivatives; kaempferol hexoside derivative) partially identified. Quantification of phenolic compounds was performed by HPLC-DAD, which revealed that gallic acid (2.6–7.0 mg/kg FW) was the major phenolic acid in all analysed cultivars. Myricetin glycosides (71.1 mg/kg FW) were the major flavonol glycosides in cultivar Xiangshan and quercetin glycosides (117.8 mg/kg FW) were the major ones in cultivar Biqi. Cultivar Dongkui had medium contents of quercetin glycosides (48.0 mg/kg FW) and myricetin glycosides (53.2 mg/kg FW). Kaempferol glyosides (3.1–4.6 mg/kg FW) were the lowest contents of flavonol glycosides in the assayed bayberries. These results are relevant not only from a nutritional point of view, but also in the control of color stability and haze formation during bayberry juice processing and storage. 相似文献

In previous studies, it was hypothesized that isorhamnetin glycosides are the dominant flavonol derivatives occurring in the peels and cladodes of cactus Opuntia ficus-indica fruits and might be used as markers for analyzing the authenticity of food products containing (whole) cactus fruits or cladodes. In the present work, use of the whole yellow-orange fruit from cactus O. ficus-indica as an ingredient of rice- and corn-based snacks was evaluated. The impact of extrusion cooking on the flavonol profile was characterized in rice- and corn-based extruded products fortified with a freeze-dried preparation from the whole cactus fruit. HPLC analysis showed that the flavonol profile of cactus O. ficus-indica consisted of five prominent isorhamnetin glycosides with a concentration of 148.9 μg/100 mg dw. In contrast, the rice or corn grits used in the present study did not contain any flavonol at all. The freeze-dried fruit was added in different ratios (0, 2, 6, and 10%) to the rice or corn grits prior to the extrusion process. Analysis of the final extrusion products showed that flavonol profiles from the fortified rice or corn products, even at the lowest level of addition (2%), were similar to the original profile of the fruit before processing. Furthermore, the total flavonol content in extruded products was not significantly affected by extrusion cooking. This study showed that the unique flavonol profile of fruits from cactus O. ficus-indica might serve as a biochemical marker for the evaluation of the authenticity of products made from whole cactus fruit or the fruit's peel. 相似文献

A novel acylated flavonol glycoside: isorhamnetin (3-O-[(6-O-E-sinapoyl)-β-d-glucopyranosyl-(1 → 2)]-β-d-glucopyranosyl-7-O-α-l-rhamnopyranoside) (1), together with two known acylated flavonol glycosides: quercetin (3-O-[(6-O-E-sinapoyl)-β-d-glucopyranosyl-(1 → 2)]-β-d-glucopyranosyl-7-O-α-l-rhamnopyranoside) (2) and kaempferol (3-O-[(6-O-E-sinapoyl)-β-d-glucopyranosyl-(1 → 2)]-β-d-glucopyranosyl-7-O-α-l-rhamnopyranoside) (3) were isolated from the n-butanol fraction of sea buckthorn (Hippophae rhamnoides ssp. sinensis) berries for the first time by chromatographic methods, and their structures were elucidated using UV, MS, 1H and 13C NMR, and 2D NMR. Compounds 1–3 showed good scavenging activities, with respective IC50 values of 8.91, 4.26 and 30.90 μM toward the 2,2′-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) radical; respective Trolox equivalent antioxidant capacities of 2.89, 4.04 and 2.44 μM μM−1 toward 2,2′-azino-bis-3-ethyl-benzothiazoline-6-sulphonate (ABTS) radical. The quantitative analysis of the isolated acylated flavonol glycosides was performed by HPLC–DAD method. The contents of compounds 1–3 were in the range of 12.2–31.4, 4.0–25.3, 7.5–59.7 mg/100 g dried berries and 9.1–34.5, 75.1–182.1, 29.2–113.4 mg/100 g dried leaves, respectively. 相似文献

The present study reports for the first time the metabolite profile and antioxidant activity of aqueous extract obtained from Dracaena draco L. leaf. Volatiles profile was determined by HS-SPME/GC-IT-MS, with 34 compounds being identified, distributed by distinct chemical classes: 2 alcohols, 5 aldehydes, 16 carotenoid derivatives and 8 terpenic compounds. Carotenoid derivative compounds constituted the most abundant class in leaf (representing 45% of total identified compounds). Phenolics profile was determined by HPLC/DAD and 9 constituents were identified: 2 hydroxycinnamic acid derivatives – 5-O-caffeoylquinic and 3,5-O-dicaffeoylquinic acids; 4 hydroxycinnamic acids – caffeic, p-coumaric, ferulic and sinapic acids and 3 flavonol glycosides – quercetin-3-O-rutinoside, kaempferol-3-O-glucoside and kaempferol-3-O-rutinoside. The most abundant phenolic compound is quercetin-3-O-rutinoside (representing 50.2% of total polyphenols). Organic acids composition was also characterised, by HPLC–UV and oxalic, citric, malic and fumaric acids were determined. Oxalic and citric acids were present in higher amounts (representing 47%, each). The antioxidant potential of this material was assessed by the ability to protect against free radical-induced biomembrane damage, using human erythrocyte as in vitro model. Leaf extract strongly protected the erythrocyte membrane from haemolysis (IC50 of 39 ± 11 μg/ml), in a time- and concentration-dependent manner. This is the first report showing that D. draco leaf is a promising antioxidant agent. 相似文献

The winter crop kale has a complex profile of different glycosylated and acylated flavonol glycosides which may be affected by global warming. To the best of our knowledge, compound–climate relationships for flavonol aglycones and flavonol glycosides were established for the first time. The investigated 10 major flavonol glycosides responded structure-dependent in the investigated temperature range between 0 and 12 °C and the photosynthetic active radiation range between 4 and 20 mol m−2 d−1, e.g. the decrease in temperature led to an increase in sinapic acid monoacylated and diacylated quercetin glycosides, while the sinapic acid monoacylated kaempferol glycosides showed a maximum at 4.5 °C. Furthermore, the hydroxycinnamic acid residues and the different number of glucose moieties in the 7-O position affected the response of kaempferol triglucosides. Consequently, global warming would result in lower concentrations of antioxidant-relevant quercetin glycosides in winter crops, suggesting a production at e.g. higher altitudes due to lower temperature. 相似文献

Methanol extracts of seeds from 23 accessions of 3 Phaseolus vulgaris ecotypes (“Sarconi”, “Lamon”, “Zolfino del Pratomagno”), grown in different Italian regions (Basilicata, Veneto, Tuscany) were analyzed for their flavonoid content. Flavonoid glycosides were found in the seed coat from ten accessions of the “Zolfino” ecotype and in one accession of the “Sarconi” ecotype. From highest to lowest concentration these compounds were kaempferol 3-O-glucoside (compound 2), kaempferol 3-O-xylosylglucoside (compound 1) and a not completely identified kaempferol monoglucoside (compound 3). Total flavonol content varied from 0.19 to 0.84 g/kg of seed fresh weight. A great variability in the total flavonol content, being between 18% and 50%, and in the relative abundance of different kaempferol derivatives was observed for the same genotypes sampled in the original locations in the 2001–2003 period. Fluctuation in flavonol content suggests that further researches are necessary for an exhaustive comprehension of physiological mechanisms influencing the expression of these phenolic compounds. Obtained results evidenced that some Italian bean ecotypes may be an important source of functional compounds as kaempferol glycosides. 相似文献

Gnaphalium affine D. Don, is used as a vegetable as well as a folk medicine in China for its anti-inflammatory, antitussive, and expectorant activities. Phytochemical investigation of the ethyl acetate (EtOAc) fraction of this plant led to isolation of three new acylated flavonol glycosides, apigenin 4′-O-β-d-(6″-E-caffeoyl)-glucopyranoside, luteolin 4′-O-β-d-(6″-E-caffeoyl)-glucopyranoside, and quercetin 4′-O-β-d-(6″-E-caffeoyl)-glucopyranoside, together with 24 known compounds. The structures of these compounds were determined by spectroscopic methods. All compounds were evaluated for their anti-complementary activity on the classical pathway of the complement system in vitro, and luteolin 4′-O-β-d-(6″-E-caffeoyl)-glucopyranoside exhibited highest anti-complementary activity with an IC50 value of 0.045 ± 0.005 mg/ml. This is the first report of anti-complementary activity of G. affine D. Don, which displays the initial evidence that this plant is a potent complement inhibitor. 相似文献

Cultivars and consumption typologies of some Allium species can significantly vary from a chemical point of view and even small differences can be important for their characterization and differentiation. Bulbs of three varieties and four consumption typologies of onion (Allium cepa L.) and two varieties of shallot (Allium ascalonicum Hort.) were subjected to HPLC–DAD–ESI-MS–MS analysis. Seven flavonol glucosides were identified in all the samples, two of which, quercetin 3,4′-diglucoside and quercetin 4′-glucoside, represent about the 90% of the overall contents. Cultivars and consumption typologies of the Allium species under study show significant differences in flavonol contents, from the very low quantity of antioxidant compounds in white onion, about 7 mg/kg against 600–700 mg/kg that were found in red and gold varieties, to the enormous content of flavonols that are present in onions of prompt consumption, where quercetin 4′-glucoside exceeds 1 g/kg and quercetin 3-glucoside is present in a ratio higher then 10:1 with respect to its value in the other onion typologies. Shallots are very rich in the two major flavonols. 相似文献

Eight flavonols were detected in rowanberry juice, six quercetin and two kaempferol glycosides which were identified as quercetin 3-O-galactoside, quercetin 3-O-glucoside, two quercetin 3-O-dihexosides, quercetin pentose-hexoside and quercetin hexose-pentoside and two kaempferol dihexosides. The total content of identified flavonols in the rowanberry juice was 291 mg L-1. Quercetin dihexosides contributed 78% to the flavonol content. However, chlorogenic and neochlorogenic acid were the most abundant phenolic compounds in the rowanberry juice (544 and 273 mg L-1, respectively). From a nutritional point of view, rowanberry juice provides 70 mg of flavonols and 196 mg of chlorogenic acids per serving. HPLC-MSn and HPLC-DAD in combination with solid phase extraction were used to obtain these results. 相似文献

To evaluate the nutritional advantages of quinoa seeds (Chenopodium quinoa Willd.) cultivated in Japan, antioxidative properties and flavonoid composition were determined and compared to corresponding data for conventionally-used cereals and pseudo-cereals, including quinoa seeds from South America. The antioxidant activities of these grains against DPPH radicals were strongly associated with the total phenolic content of the tested samples. The crude extracts of quinoa seeds cultivated in Japan exhibited higher antioxidative effects than those from South America and other cereals, excluding buckwheat. Four flavonol glycosides were isolated and identified from the Japanese quinoa seeds, and the chemical composition of the flavonoids – quercetin and kaempferol 3-O-(2″,6″-di-O-α-rhamnopyranosyl)-β-galactopyranosides (1 and 4), quercetin 3-O-(2″,6″-di-O-α-rhamnopyranosyl)-β-glucopyranoside (2), and quercetin 3-O-(2″-O-β-apiofuranosyl-6″-O-α-rhamnopyranosyl)-β-galactopyranoside (3) – was evaluated through quantitative determination. Trioside 2 was isolated for the first time from quinoa seeds. These glycosides were not detected in extracts from any of the tested grains except quinoa. The aglycone quercetin content of the Japanese quinoa seeds is higher than in the seeds from South America and buckwheat. The amounts of quercetin and kaempferol formed via acidic hydrolysis in quinoa are much higher than those of conventionally-used edible plants. The quinoa seeds cultivated in Japan are the most effective functional foodstuff – in terms of being a source of antioxidative and bioactive flavonoids – among cereals and pseudo-cereals. 相似文献

The phenolic compounds in extracts from pressed olive cake were investigated. Free phenolic compounds were extracted from olive cake using methanol. To liberate bound phenolic compounds, the olive cake was subjected to basic and acidic hydrolysis followed by methanol extraction. The individual phenolic compounds and antioxidant activity of the extracts were determined. The highest total phenolic content and antioxidant activity were obtained using methanol extraction for 12 h at 70 °C. The RP-HPLC profiles for full-fat and defatted olive cake showed that protocatechuic acid, hydroxybenzoic acid, sinapic acid, p-coumaric acid, rutin and hesperidin were the predominant free phenolic compounds. Meanwhile, syringic acid, sinapic acid, caffeic acid and protocatechuic acid were the predominant bound phenolic acids. A positive correlation was observed between total phenolic content and antioxidant activity. The results indicated that most of the phenolic compounds in olive products were present in their free forms (75–90% of total phenolic content), while bound phenolic compounds were only a small proportion (10–25%) of total phenolic content. 相似文献

Phytochemical analyses of the cultivated Sideritis raeseri subsp. raeseri in four different stages of flower development were performed. Traditionally used infusion and decoction were also prepared from aerial parts in full flowering stage, and analyses of active compounds and radical scavenging capacity were performed. The highest yield of the essential oil, obtained by hydrodistillation, was noticed in the full flowering phase (0.11%), with sesquiterpene bicyclogermacrene as the main constituent (42.5%). All examined extracts contained phenolic compounds and their amounts varied from 15.3 to 34.1 mg GAE/g DW. The amounts of total phenolics in infusion and decoction were similar (46.5 and 43.9 mg GAE/100 ml, respectively). LC–ESI-MS analyses of all samples allowed the characterisation of 22 phenolic compounds. Two dominant flavone glycosides, 4′-O-methylhypolaetin-7-O-[6?-O-acetyl-β-d-allopyranosyl (1 → 2)-β-d-glucopyranoside (17) and 4′-O-methylisoscutellarein-7-O-[6?-O-acetyl-β-d-allopyranosyl-(1 → 2)]-β-d-glucopyranoside (19) were quantified using HPLC. Moreover, the mineral content and the percent of transportation were investigated. 相似文献

Cottonseeds are fed to high-producing dairy cows as a source of fat and highly-digestible fibre. Seven flavonol glycosides have been identified from whole cottonseed by-product. Their structures were established as quercetin 3-O-{β-d-apiofuranosyl-(1 → 2)-[α-l-rhamnopyranosyl-(1 → 6)]-β-d-glucopyranoside} (1), kaempferol 3-O-{β-d-apiofuranosyl-(1 → 2)-[α-l-rhamnopyranosyl-(1 → 6)]-β-d-glucopyranoside} (2), quercetin 3-O-[β-d-apiofuranosyl-(1 → 2)-β-d-glucopyranoside] (3), quercetin 3-O-β-d-glucopyranoside (4), kaempferol 3-O-[α-l-rhamnopyranosyl-(1 → 6)-β-d-glucopyranoside] (5), quercetin 3-O-[α-l-rhamnopyranosyl-(1 → 6)-β-d-glucopyranoside] (6), and kaempferol 3-O-α-l-rhamnopyranoside (7). Gallic acid (8) and 3,4-dihydroxybenzoic acid (9) were also found. All structures were elucidated by ESI-MS and NMR spectroscopic methods. Total polyphenols were assayed by the Folin–Ciocalteu method. 相似文献

Two different options for the combined recovery of pectin and phenolic compounds from mango peels, a byproduct of industrial mango processing, were developed. After extraction of dried mango peels with diluted sulfuric acid, the phenolic compounds were adsorbed using a styrene–divinylbenzene copolymerisate resin, and pectin was obtained from the effluent by precipitation with ethanol. Phenolic compounds were recovered from the resin with methanol and the eluate was lyophilized (Process I). Alternatively, the pectin was precipitated by adding the crude extract to ethanol. After removal of the organic solvent, the phenolic compounds were obtained from the aqueous phase of the precipitation bath using the adsorbent resin as described before (Process II). While in total, 129.4 mg/g polyphenols were detected in the lyophilizate obtained from Process I, only 71.0 mg/g dm could be recoverd from Process II. The profiles of the polyphenols were almost identical, revealing that during pectin precipitation preferential adsorption of polyphenolic compounds to the pectin may be excluded. Besides the characterization of the pectins and the phenolic compounds, investigations into the influence of the drying temperature on the polyphenolic content of the peels were carried out, indicating a significant loss of flavonol glycosides depending on heat exposure. On the other hand, some xanthone glycosides were formed during the drying process. Furthermore, antioxidative capacities of the lyophilized eluates were investigated using the DPPH, TEAC and FRAP assays. The antioxidative capacity of the extracts exceeded that of mangiferin and quercetin 3-O-glucoside, respectively, thus demonstrating mango peels to be a suitable source of health-beneficial compounds. The lyophilizates obtained from Process I showed higher antioxidative capacities in all three assays. These findings indicate a correlation between the amount of phenolic compounds and the antioxidative capacity.
Industrial relevance
Byproducts of mango processing amount to 35–60% of the total fruit weight. Their complete exploitation for further product recovery is a promising measure from both an environmental and economic point of view. In our previous study mango peels were found to be a rich source of pectin, with a high degree of esterification and phenolic compounds, like flavonol O- and xanthone C-glycosides. Therefore, two alternative processes for the combined recovery of pectin and polyphenols, which can easily be integrated in an existing pectin production process, were developed in the present study. 相似文献17.

Black–purple rice is becoming popular with health conscious food consumers. In the present study, the secondary metabolites in dehulled black–purple rice cv. Asamurasaki were analysed using HPLC–PDA–MS2. The seeds contained a high concentration of seven anthocyanins (1400 μg/g fresh weight) with cyanidin-3-O-glucoside and peonidin-3-O-glucoside predominating. Five flavonol glycosides, principally quercetin-3-O-glucoside and quercetin-3-O-rutinoside, and flavones were detected at a total concentration of 189 μg/g. The seeds also contained 3.9 μg/g of carotenoids consisting of lutein, zeaxanthin, lycopene and β-carotene. γ-Oryzanol (279 μg/g) was also present as a mixture of 24-methylenecycloartenol ferulate, campesterol ferulate, cycloartenol ferulate and β-sitosterol ferulate. No procyanidins were detected in this variety of black–purple rice. The results demonstrate that the black–purple rice in the dehulled form in which it is consumed by humans contains a rich heterogeneous mixture of phytochemicals which may provide a basis for the potential health benefits, and highlights the possible use of the rice as functional food. 相似文献

Hawthorn (Crataegus spp.) fruits are increasingly popular as raw materials for nutraceuticals and functional foods. As a major group of bio-active components of hawthorn, the phenolic compounds of the fruits have not been well characterized so far. After extraction with 80% aqueous ethanol, the phenolics of the fruits of a major Chinese hawthorn variety, Crataegus pinnatifida Bge. var. major, were separated by polyamide column chromatography, followed by analyses by high performance liquid chromatography combined with diode array UV spectrometry and electrospray ionization mass spectrometry. Ideain (cyanidin-3-O-galactoside), chlorogenic acid, procyanidin B2 [epicatechin-(4β → 8)-epicatechin], epicatechin, hyperoside (quercetin-3-O-galactoside) and isoquercitrin (quercetin-3-O-glucoside) were identified with UV spectra, mass spectra and reference compounds. In addition, 35 compounds were tentatively identified based on UV and mass spectra. These compounds were mostly B-type procyanidins (PA) and their glycosides including aglycons of 3 dimers, 3 trimers, 8 tetramers, 4 pentamers, 2 hexamers and 2 glycosides of PA monomers, 7 glycosides of PA dimers, 1 glycoside of a PA trimer, 2 glycosides of PA tetramers, 1 glycoside of a PA pentamer, and 2 glycosides of quercetin. This is the first systematic study of phenolic compounds in Chinese hawthorn fruits and the first report of the presence of glycosylated procyanidins in hawthorn. 相似文献

Sour prickly pears (xoconostles) are fruits from Opuntia joconostle cactus, which are cultivated in the central Mexico area. Phenolic and pigment content in various parts of O. joconostle fruits were analyzed. The antioxidant activity of a methanolic extraction and different semi-purified fractions were also evaluated by the DPPH+ method. Xoconostle fruits were obtained from a commercial orchard in Mexico State. Fruits were analyzed as whole fruit and each fruit part including pericarp, mesocarp and endocarp. Samples were homogenized and kept at 4 °C until sample preparation. Total phenolic content and total flavonoid content varied among the different parts of the fruit. The highest amount of phenolic compounds and total flavonoids content were found in pericarp 2.07 mg gallic acid equivalents (GAE)/g fresh weight (FW) and 0.46 mg(+)-catechin equivalents (CE)/g FW respectively. Seven phenolics were identified as protocatechuic, 4-hydroxybenzoic, caffeic, vanillic and syringic acids, rutin, and quercetin. The color of the fruit parts was mainly due to the presence of betacyanins. The betacyanin concentration was higher in the endocarp (23.03 mg betanin equivalents/100 g fresh weight) than in the pericarp and mesocarp. Betacyanins were identified by HPLC-PDA-MS as betanin, isobetanin, betanidin, isobetanidin, and phyllocactin. Methanolic extracts and semi-purified fractions A (phenolics and flavonols) and B (betacyanins) of xoconostle showed high antioxidant activity mainly in the pericarp. These results suggest that xoconostle is a rich source of antioxidant compounds such as phenolic compounds and betacyanins. 相似文献

Five cultivars of Myrica rubra, Biqi, Wandao, Dongkui, Dingao, and Zaodamei, were collected to analyze the phenolic compounds and evaluate the antioxidant properties of bayberry pomaces. The main anthocyanin was cyanidin-3-o-glucoside (3073.3–6219.2 mg/kg dry weight (DW)) and the main flavonol was quercetin-3-o-glucoside (296.2–907.9 mg/kg dry weight). Quercetin and myricetin were also found in the bayberry pomaces, and quercetin deoxyhexoside and myricetin deoxyhexoside were tentatively identified. The dominant phenolic acids were gallic acid (102.9–241.7 mg/kg dry weight) and protocatechuic acid (29.5–57.2 mg/kg dry weight). Other phenolic acids such as p-hydroxybenzoic, vanillic, caffeic, p-coumaric, and ferulic acids were also present in the bayberry pomaces, whereas, chlorogenic acid was only detected in Dongkui (1.58 mg/kg dry weight). The antioxidant activity of Wandao was the strongest of the five cultivars, whereas the activity of Dongkui was the weakest, and a significant positive relationship was observed between antioxidant activity and total phenolic content or total anthocyanins. 相似文献
