Abstract: | The content of total polyphenolics, antioxidative capacity and antiproliferative activity were tested in wild and cultivated blackberry pomace. Wild blackberry pomace extract Tw2 showed the highest following contents: total polyphenolics (50.16 mg GAE g−1 dw), flavonoids (7.73 mg Qc g−1 dw), flavonols (6.63 mg Qc g−1 dw) and total monomeric anthocyanins (13.40 mg Cy g−1). Tw2 extract significantly inhibited free radicals: IC50DPPH = 127.76 μg mL−1, IC50ABTS = 26.53 μg mL−1 and IC50 ˙ OH = 168.62 μg mL−1, and the growth of breast adenocarcinoma IC50MCF7 = 306.68 μg mL−1 and cervix epitheloid carcinoma cell lines IC50HeLa = 315.49 μg mL−1. Wild blackberry varieties had higher extraction yields, higher total polyphenolic contents and possessed stronger biological effects compared to cultivated blackberries (P < 0.05). All blackberry extracts showed high biological potential that could be attributed to high total polyphenols and flavonoids content and could be utilised as value-added functional food. |
