Phenolic composition,antioxidant and antimicrobial activities of free and bound phenolic extracts of Moringa oleifera seed flour

Phenolic compounds, antioxidant and antibacterial activities of defatted Moringa oleifera seed flour (DMF) were investigated. The total phenolic and flavonoid contents were measured using colorimetric methods. Free phenolic acid and flavonoid profiles were analyzed by high performance liquid chromatography, while antioxidant capacities were evaluated using scavenging assays of 1,1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl radical (DPPH), ferric reducing antioxidant power and total antioxidant capacity. The results showed that extractability of phenolic compounds was significantly higher (p < 0.05) in bound phenolic extract (4173.00 ± 32.22 mg gallic acid equivalents (GAE)/100 g) than in free phenolic extract (780.00 ± 14.2 mg GAE/100 g) and it showed higher antioxidant and antimicrobial activities. The IC₅₀ value for DPPH radical scavenging activity was 0.9 ± 0.05 and 14.9 ± 0.07 mg/mL for bound phenolic and free phenolic extracts, respectively. Bound phenolic extract was more effective (minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC), 0.06–0.157%) than free phenolic extract (MIC, 0.117–0.191%) against tested bacteria. Ten phenolic compounds (gallic acid, p-coumaric acid, ferulic acid, caffeic acid, protocatechuic acid, cinnamic acid, catechin, epicatechin, vanillin and quercetin) were identified and quantified in both extracts. These natural plant phenolics from Moringa seeds could be a good source of antioxidants and antibacterials for food and pharmaceutical industries.     

Phenolic profiles and antioxidant activity of litchi pulp of different cultivars cultivated in Southern China

The phenolic profiles and antioxidant activity of litchi pulp of 13 varieties were investigated. The free, bound and total phenolic contents were 66.17–226.03, 11.18–40.54, and 101.51–259.18 mg of gallic acid equivalents/100 g, respectively. The free, bound and total flavonoid contents were 16.68–110.33, 10.48–22.75, and 39.43–129.86 mg of catechin equivalents/100 g, respectively. Free phenolics and flavonoids contributed averagely 80.1% and 75% to their total contents, respectively. Six individual phenolics (gallic acid, chlorogenic acid, (+)-catechin, caffeic acid, (?)-epicatechin, and rutin) were detected in litchi pulp by HPLC. The contents of each compound in free and bound fractions were determined. Significant varietal discrepancy in antioxidant activity was also found by FRAP and DPPH scavenging capacity methods. Antioxidant activity was significantly correlated with phenolic and flavonoid contents. Thus, phenolics and flavonoids exist mainly in the free form in litchi pulp. There were significant varietal differences in phytochemical contents and antioxidant activity of litchi pulp.     

Antioxidative phenolic constituents of skins of onion varieties and their activities

The antioxidant activity of phenolic constituent of skin and selected flesh of different coloured onions (Pearl, Red, Yellow and White) were determined. The green shoot obtained after sprouting of the red onion was also analyzed to study the changes in the phenolic constituents during germination. For the first time, all tests were carried out separately for the free, esterified and insoluble-bound phenolic constituents of onion samples. The content of phenolics extracted from onion skins was approximately six times higher than that of their flesh counterparts. Among onion varieties, pearl onion skin showed the highest phenolic content (26.4 mg quercetin eq/g freeze dried sample). A similar trend was observed for free radical scavenging activity of the tested samples. Extracts from edible part of onion showed lower activity in all antioxidant tests carried out. The HPLC–MS analysis showed that quercetin 3,4′-diglucoside, quercetin, and kaempferol were the predominant phenolics in all onion extracts tested.     

Walnuts and almonds as model systems of foods constituted by oxidisable,pro-oxidant and antioxidant factors

Walnuts and almonds were selected as complex model systems in order to study possible interactions among oxidisable substances, pro-oxidant species and antioxidants. Lipoxygenase activities in a direct-micelle system were determined for these nuts according their globulin contents in their soluble protein fraction. Walnut lipoxygenase activity was 1.5 times higher than that of almonds. Among antioxidant compounds, hydrophilic contents were analysed in these nuts, hence, extractable, hydrolysable and condensed phenolic compound fractions were determined as well as lipophilic phenolic concentration corresponding to tocopherol fraction. Extracts of brown skins and whole walnuts have significantly higher phenolic contents than those of almonds. Radical scavenging activities of phenolic extracts were measured. Besides, the experiments demonstrated the ability of all nut extracts to inhibit the coupled oxidation of linoleic acid with β-carotene induced by lipoxygenase. The antioxidant substances were mainly found in nut brown skins. Walnut extracts showed higher antioxidant activity than those of almonds. Lipoxygenase pro-oxidant activity was also measured in AOT reverse micelles in conditions that model these nuts.     

Bioaccessibility and antioxidant potential of millet grain phenolics as affected by simulated in vitro digestion and microbial fermentation

Dehulled and cooked grains of five millet varieties (kodo, finger, proso, foxtail and pearl) were subjected to in vitro enzymatic digestion and microbial fermentation under physiological conditions in order to determine the bioaccessibility of their phenolic compounds. Extracts recovered as supernatants from enzymatic digestion and microbial fermentation were employed for the determination of their total phenolic content (TPC) and total flavonoid content (TFC), as well as the scavenging of 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH), peroxyl and hydroxyl radicals. Furthermore, trolox equivalent antioxidant capacity (TEAC), reducing power and ferrous ion chelating activity of the extracts so obtained were evaluated. The DPPH and hydroxyl radical scavenging activities were determined using electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) spectroscopy. The peroxyl radical activity was measured using an oxygen radical absorbance capacity (ORAC) assay. The TPC ranged from 12.7 to 35.4 and 21.2 to 47.4 μmol ferulic acid equivalents per gram of grain, on a dry weight (dw) basis at the end of intestinal digestion and colonic fermentation, respectively. All five millet varieties exhibited effective antioxidant activity and the order of efficacy differed according to the assay employed. The present study thus demonstrated that phenolic compounds of processed millets were bioaccessible and colonic fermentation released the phenolics bound to the insoluble fibre in the grain.     

Analysis of antioxidant activity and antioxidant constituents of Chinese toon

Antioxidant activity of the methanol and water extracts of Chinese toon (Toona sinensis) leaf was evaluated using DPPH radical scavenging and lipid peroxidation assays. Contents of four major types of antioxidants including β-carotene, ascorbate, α-tocopherol and phenolics were also quantified. Open column chromatography followed by semi-preparative HPLC were applied to separate phenolic antioxidants whose contents were subsequently determined by HPLC. The methanol extract demonstrated much higher antioxidant activity than the water extract. Contents of β-carotene, ascorbate, α-tocopherol and phenolics were 1.23 μmol g^?1, 34.2 μmol g^?1, 2.40 μmol g^?1 and 872 μmol gallic acid equivalents g^?1, respectively. Six phenols were isolated. Their structures were characterized as 5-O-galloylquinic acid, gallic acid, methyl gallate, β-1,2,6-tri-O-galloyl-d-glucose, quercetin 3-O-β-d-glucopyranoside and quercetin 3-O-(2′′-O-galloyl)-β-d-glucopyranoside, respectively. The results indicate that phenolic compounds are the dominant antioxidants in Chinese toon. The compounds β-1,2,6-tri-O-galloyl-d-glucose and quercetin 3-O-(2′′-O-galloyl)-β-d-glucopyranoside were reported for the first time in Chinese toon.     

Citharexylum solanaceum fruit extracts: Profiles of phenolic compounds and carotenoids and their relation with ROS and RNS scavenging capacities

Citharexylum solanaceum is a native fruit from Brazil, which both bioactive compounds and antioxidant potential were not yet investigated. Thus, the freeze-dried extracts of seed and pulp + skin of C. solanaceum fruits were obtained after solid-liquid extraction with ethanol and their bioactive compounds composition, namely phenolic compounds and carotenoids, were determined. The antioxidant capacity of both extracts against physiologically relevant reactive oxygen species (ROS) and reactive nitrogen species (RNS) was further investigated. Both C. solanaceum extracts showed high contents of phenolic compounds; however, pulp + skin extract presented 2.4-times more phenolic compounds (33.54 mg/g) than the seed extract (14.09 mg/g). Verbascoside (phenylpropanoid) was the major compound identified in both extracts (11–25 mg/g). Regarding the carotenoid composition, all-trans-lutein (14–42 μg/g) and all-trans-β-carotene (13–44 μg/g) were the major compounds in both extracts. The high content of phenolic compounds and carotenoids in pulp + skin extract might explain its higher scavenging capacity against all the ROS/RNS as compared to seed extract. In general, both extracts showed better scavenging capacity for the RNS than for the ROS. Our results indicate that C. solanaceum fruits can be explored as an important natural source of antioxidant compounds.     

A Comparative Study on Antioxidant and DNA Protective Activity of Different Skin Coloured Brinjal (Solanum Melongena)

The aim of this study was to investigate the in vitro antioxidant activity and DNA damage inhibition potential of aqueous extract of S. melongena with different skin colours. Water extracts of brinjal with four different skin colours: moderately purple (S1), light purple (S2), dark purple (S3) and purple with green lines (S4) were tested for their antioxidant and radical scavenging activities. The total phenolic content (TPC) was quantified using Folin-Ciocalteau's method. The effectiveness of brinjal extracts in preventing radical induced DNA damage was also determined. There was a significant difference (p<0.0001) between the skin colour andantioxidant activity. Brinjal with S3skin colour showed the highest TPC and antioxidant activity measured by FRAP while, S2 showed the least. S1 displayed the highest percentage of DPPH radical scavenging activity with an IC₅₀ value of 3.51±0.62 mg/ml while, S3 demonstrated the strongest total antioxidant capacity with an inhibition percentage of 40.45±1.17. In the FTC (Ferric Thiocyanate) and egg yolk model, S1 and S3 showed better antioxidantactivity than S2 and S4. The in vitro freeradical quenchingand antioxidant results well correlated with the in vitro lipid peroxidation assays. All extracts were able to effectively retain DNA against AAPH induced radical damage at the concentration levels (25 and 75 mg/ml) tested. All the extracts showed moderate to potent antioxidant activity, among which S3 and S1, intensely coloured skins, demonstrated better antioxidant activity which may be attributed to the higher phenolic content since a linear relation was observed between the TPC and the antioxidant parameters.     

Triticale bran and straw: Potential new sources of phenolic acids,proanthocyanidins, and lignans

The distribution of phenolic acids (free and bound), proanthocyanidins, and lignans in defatted triticale bran and straw was determined. For comparison, wheat, rye and oat brans as well as triticale flakes and leaves were also assayed. Most phenolic acids were present in the bound form (89–98%), and released under alkaline extraction conditions. The content of phenolic acids ranged from 65.2 to 252.5 mg/100 g in samples in which ferulic acid predominanted. Triticale straw was the richest source of proanthocyanidins, containing 862.5 mg/100 g (catechin equivalents) of tissue. Triticale straw contained 0.27 mg/100 g of lignan secoisolariciresinol diglucoside (SDG), whereas the bran had only 0.01 mg/100 g. The oxygen radical absorbance capacity (ORAC, μM Trolox equivalents/g defatted material) showed that antioxidant activity of bound phenolics was higher than those of free phenolics. This is the first report on phenolic acids, proanthocyanidin, and lignans content of Canadian triticale by-products, indicating that they may have the potential for use as nutraceuticals and/or functional food ingredients.     

Determination of in vitro antioxidant activity of fennel (Foeniculum vulgare) seed extracts

In this study, the antioxidant activity of water and ethanol extracts of fennel (Foeniculum vulgare) seed (FS) was evaluated by various antioxidant assay, including total antioxidant, free radical scavenging, superoxide anion radical scavenging, hydrogen peroxide scavenging, metal chelating activities and reducing power. Those various antioxidant activities were compared to standard antioxidants such as butylated hydroxyanisole (BHA), butylated hydroxytoluene (BHT), and α-tocopherol. The water and ethanol extracts of FS seeds showed strong antioxidant activity. 100 μg of water and ethanol extracts exhibited 99.1% and 77.5% inhibition of peroxidation in linoleic acid system, respectively, and greater than the same dose of α-tocopherol (36.1%). The both extracts of FS have effective reducing power, free radical scavenging, superoxide anion radical scavenging, hydrogen peroxide scavenging, and metal chelating activities. This antioxidant property depends on concentration and increasing with increased amount of sample. In addition, total phenolic compounds in the water and ethanol extracts of fennel seeds were determined as gallic acid equivalents. The results obtained in the present study indicated that the fennel (F. vulgare) seed is a potential source of natural antioxidant. Although, the tests presented here show the usefulness of FS extracts as in vitro antioxidants it still needs to be that this extracts show their activity in emulsions, biological systems, health implications or dry foods.     

Phenolic content and antioxidant activities of selected potato varieties and their processing by-products

The total content of free, esterified and bound phenolics of the peel and flesh of four potato varieties (Purple, Innovator, Russet and Yellow) were determined using the Folin–Ciocalteu method. The respective antioxidant activities of these potatoes and/or their skins were evaluated using several in vitro assays. The phenolic profiles of potato peel and flesh samples were determined using high-performance liquid chromatography with photodiode array detection (HPLC-DAD). Bound and esterified phenolics contributed as much or even more than the free phenolics to the antioxidant activity of the peels; extracts from Purple variety showing the highest activity. The peels of all varieties showed significantly (p < 0.05) higher phenolic content and antioxidant activities than their respective flesh. Chromatographic data showed differences in the amounts, but not in types, of phenolic compounds in the potato peel samples. Thus, potato processing discard may be used in food formulations and their extracts could potentially be employed as an effective source of antioxidants in food systems.     

Antioxidant activities of five Chinese rice wines and the involvement of phenolic compounds

Chinese rice wine has been claimed to have health-promoting effects, which may be related to the antioxidant activity in vivo. In this study, total antioxidant, reducing, free radical scavenging, and superoxide anion radical scavenging activities were determined in five Chinese rice wines (Guyuelongshan, Hongqu, Shousheng, Foshou, and Nuomi) comparing with synthetic antioxidants, such as butylated hydroxyanisole (BHA) and butylated hydroxytoluene (BHT). Ten individual phenolic compounds including caffeic acid, syringic acid, and rutin, (−)-epicatechin, (+)-catechin, gallic acid, vanillic acid, p-coumaric acid, ferulic acid and quercetin, were identified and quantified by HPLC. Results indicated that rice wines exhibited high antioxidant power, and that total antioxidant activity, reducing capacity and free radical scavenging activity were highly correlated with total phenolic content. Nuomi with the highest content of phenolic compounds showed the highest antioxidant activity, while Foshou had the lowest content with lowest activity. Syringic acid and (+)-catechin contributed most to the phenolic compounds and were highly correlated with all antioxidant properties (r² > 0.75). However, vanillic acid, p-coumaric acid and quercetin showed little contribution to the antioxidant function.     

Antioxidant,anti-inflammatory and DNA scission inhibitory activities of phenolic compounds in selected onion and potato varieties

Processing of onion and potato produces a large amount of discards, mainly skins. This study compared the antioxidant activity of skin and flesh phenolics of selected onion (Pearl, Red, Yellow and White) and potato (Purple, Innovator, Russet and Yellow) varieties. All tests were carried out separately for the soluble and insoluble-bound phenolic constituents of onion and potato samples. The potency of the phenolic extracts in the inhibition of radical-induced DNA scission, human low-density lipoprotein (LDL) cholesterol oxidation and LPS-stimulated cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) expression in J774A.1 mouse macrophage cells were monitored. Results showed that the soluble extracts had a higher phenolic content and antioxidant activity than the insoluble-bound extracts in most of the assays. Both onion and potato phenolics exhibited notable inhibition of LDL cholesterol oxidation, DNA scission and COX-2 expression at concentrations as low as 5 μg/mL. Pearl onion skin and Purple potato peel phenolics exhibited the highest activities among the tested onion and potato varieties, respectively.     

Effect of Moisture Content,Nut Size and Hot-Oil Roasting Time on the Whole Kernel “Out-Turn” of Cashew Nuts (Anacardium occidentale) During Shelling

The effect of moisture content (MC), nut size and roasting time (RT) on the whole kernel out-turn (WKO) of cashew nuts during shelling was investigated in this study. Cashew nuts were graded into three sizes: small (18 – 22 mm), medium (23 – 25 mm) and large nuts (26 – 35 mm). About 3 kg of nuts from each grade was conditioned with water at 25°C to five moisture levels of 8.34, 11.80, 12.57, 15.40 and 16.84% (wb). The nuts were subjected to roasting in hot cashew nut shell liquid at a temperature range between 180 and 190°C for 0.75, 1.00, 1.25, and 1.50 min. The nuts were then shelled using a hand-operated shelling machine. The results showed that pre-shelling treatment of cashew nuts enhanced WKO. The single effect of MC, roasting time (RT) or nut size distribution is not enough for estimating WKO; it is rather by an interaction of these parameters. The average WKO of raw nuts was characteristically below 50% at all combinations of MC and RT. Pre-treatment by roasting was found to improve WKO considerably. The highest values were 96.96, 99.63 and 100% for large, medium and small-sized nuts at MC*RT of 16.84%*1 min, 16.84%*1 min and 15.4%*1.5 min respectively. As RT and MC increased, WKO increased within the experimental range.

Consumption of baru seeds [Dipteryx alata Vog.], a Brazilian savanna nut,prevents iron-induced oxidative stress in rats

The protective effect of plant-based foods in human health has been attributed to the presence of bioactive compounds in all parts of the plants. A previous study found a high level of minerals, tannins and phytic acid in the baru nut (Dipteryx alata Vog.), which is a native fruit of the Brazilian savanna. This study investigated the antioxidant activity (AA) of the aqueous and ethyl acetate extracts of the baru nut and the effect of the consumption of this nut on the oxidative status of rats supplemented orally with iron. The AA was evaluated in vitro using the ferric reducing antioxidant power (FRAP), β-carotene/linoleic acid system and free-radical scavenging (DPPH) assays. The total polyphenol concentration was determined spectrophotometrically using the Folin–Ciocalteu reagent. The in vivo study was conducted in male Wistar rats that were fed an AIN-93M diet with or without 10% baru nut or 1% phytic acid and supplemented daily with iron or saline by gavages for 17 days. The liver, heart and spleen were collected for the determination of the malondialdehyde (MDA), carbonyl protein and iron concentrations. The specific activities of catalase, glutathione reductase, glutathione peroxidase and glutathione S-transferase were also determined in these tissues. A T test was used to compare the results among the rats groups and between the different baru nut extracts (p < 0.05). The aqueous extract of the baru nut contained a higher level of phenolic compounds and a higher antioxidant activity, as measured by FRAP and the β-carotene/linoleic system, relative to the EtOAc extract. The iron supplementation reduced the body weight gain, increased the levels of iron and MDA in the liver and the spleen and increased the carbonyl levels in all three tissues. Consumption of the baru nut reduced the carbonyl levels in the liver, heart and spleen of the iron-supplemented rats (p = 0.002, 0.012 and 0.036, respectively) relative to the heart carbonyl level of rats that were fed the control diet (p = 0.000); it also marginally reduced the iron-induced lipid oxidation in the liver (p = 0.117) and the spleen (p = 0.074). Phytic acid reduced the carbonyl level in the spleen (p = 0.020) and marginally reduced the carbonyl level in the liver (p = 0.098) of iron-supplemented rats. These results demonstrated that the consumption of the baru nut protects tissues against iron-induced oxidative stress, and the phytic acid from the baru nut may be partially responsible for this protective effect; however, other compounds such as phenols may also be involved.     

ANTIOXIDANT ACTIVITY OF ENGLISH WALNUT (JUGLANS REGIA L.)

Phenolic contents of different fractions (contents of whole nut, skin and kernel) of English walnut ( Juglans regia L.) were determined and their antioxidative capacities investigated using a number of in vitro model systems. Phenolic compounds extracted from walnut skin into 95% ethanol contained the highest amount of total phenolics and exhibited the highest antioxidative capacity as evaluated by the trolox equivalent antioxidant capacity assay. Extracts of walnut phenolics showed a high ferrous ion chelating ability and effectively scavenged 2,2'-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl radicals, the latter considerably stronger for the skin with 50% inhibition concentration of 3.4 µg extract per mL. Further, inhibition of 2-thiobarbituric acid reactive substances formation in a bulk corn oil model system was also significant ( P <  0.05) for all three phenolic extracts and for pure gallic acid at 10 ppm gallic acid equivalents final assay concentration after four days of storage at 60C.

PRACTICAL APPLICATIONS

Walnut is a healthful nut that contains alpha-linolenic acid in its lipid fraction, and its skin is rich in polyphenolics with strong antioxidant properties, as demonstrated in this study. Thus, walnut with skin and skin of walnuts serve as good free radical scavengers and could be effective in reducing oxidative stress among other beneficial health effects, which could be exploited for product development.     

Antioxidant activity of fresh and dry fruits commonly consumed in India

Epidemiological studies from other parts of the world indicate that increased consumption of fruits and vegetables are associated with lower risk of chronic degenerative diseases. Fruits are an important component of Indian diets. Studies indicate that fruits and vegetables are rich sources of phenolic compounds and antioxidant activity (AOA). Present study was taken up to determine the AOA and phenolic content of fresh and dry fruits commonly consumed in India by two different (radical scavenging) methods and relate it to their total phenolic content (TPC) for the first time. Fourteen commonly consumed fresh fruits and ten dry fruits were studied. AOA and TPC contents of both fresh and dry fruits showed marked variation. Correlation analysis between the TPC and AOA as assessed by the two methods showed that phenolics may contribute maximally to the ABTS (r = 0.84) and to lesser extent to DPPH (r = 0.77) in fresh fruits, where as in dry fruits they correlated well to DPPH activity (r = 0.97) and to a lesser extent to FRAP (r = 0.87). In general, the results indicate that majority of the fresh and dry fruits studied are rich in phenolic antioxidants with potent free radical scavenging activity imply their importance to human health.     

Antioxidative potential of cashew phenolics in food and biological model systems as affected by roasting

The effect of different roasting conditions on antioxidant capacity of phenolics of cashew nuts and their testa was evaluated using several food and biological model systems. Total phenolic content (TPC) of cashew extracts was determined and accelerated oxidative stability of stripped corn oil in the presence of cashew extracts evaluated. In addition, the antioxidant activity of the extracts was assessed in a β-carotene-linoleate and a cooked comminuted pork model system. Inhibition of oxidation of human low density lipoprotein (LDL) cholesterol and stand breaking of supercoiled deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) was also investigated. The TPC ranged from 5 to 791 mg gallic acid equivalents/g crude extract. In general, whole cashew nuts and testa extracts demonstrated stronger antioxidant activity than that of the cashew kernel. The inhibition percentage of LDL cholesterol oxidation, as evaluated by conjugated dines formation, of cashew kernels was higher than that of testa and was 69% at the end of 24 h incubation. Extracts of roasted cashew nut showed considerable antioxidative efficiency in model systems employed in this study, however, the effect was not significantly (P ? 0.05) different from that of their raw counterparts, except for the accelerated oxidative stability assay. The results suggest that whole cashew nut and testa extracts could be used as a potential source of natural antioxidants in certain food applications and for disease risk reduction.
