Red- and purple-fleshed potatoes (Solanum tuberosum L.) are a good source of polyphenols, mainly anthocyanins as one of the most important components. The chemical composition with reducing sugars and the total polyphenol contents were analyzed in four purple potato varieties (Salad Blue, Vitelotte, Valfi, Blue Congo) and three red-fleshed potato varieties (Rosalinde, Herbie 26, Highland Burgundy Red). The anthocyanin composition of raw potato and potato crisps was characterized by high-performance liquid chromatography tandem mass spectrometry (HPLC–MS/MS) method. Moreover, the antioxidant activity was measured with the radical scavenging assays using 2,2′-azino-bis-3-ethylbenzothiazoline-6-sulphonic acid (ABTS) and 1,1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) radical as well as ferric reducing ability of plasma assay (FRAP). In addition, colour parameters in prepared potato crisps were evaluated. Both red and purple-fleshed potato varieties contained high levels of total polyphenols (227–845 mg 100 g−1 dry weight) and anthocyanins (21–109 mg 100 g−1 dry weight). The process of frying caused degradation of anthocyanin compounds (38–70%). The HPLC–MS/MS analysis showed that pelargonidin and malvidin derivates were more stable during frying than petunidin derivatives. Although frying process affected the anthocyanin and polyphenol levels, obtained potato crisps exhibited bright intensive colour and good antioxidant activity.  相似文献

The study investigates the antioxidant characteristics of various white teas steeped in either hot or room-temperature water in relation to grade of tea and brewing conditions. Antioxidant activity, chelating activity, total phenol (TPC), flavonoids (TFC), theaflavins and individual catechin content were examined. The results confirm that extraction of tea leaves carried out with water at room temperature leads to the formation of infusions particularly rich in compounds with antioxidant activity. In fact, for all the white teas studied, cold infusions had a higher content of phenols (4.77–7.63 mmol/L Gallic Acid Equivalents, GAE), flavonoids (1.47–2.53 mmol/L Catechin Equivalents, CE) and catechins (441.5–1328.2 μg/mL) compared to hot infusions (1.43–4.02 mmol/L GAE, 0.70–1.13 mmol/L CE, 83.4–534.8 μg/mL, respectively). The same trend was also observed for antioxidant activities examined using the ABTS assay (cold: 17.09–34.23; hot: 5.26–17.07 mmol/L Trolox Equivalents) and by monitoring the effects of the infusions on LDL oxidation (lag time, cold: 172.4–271.2; hot: 88.4–145.9 min). A general trend in antioxidant activity and in polyphenolic compound content can be delineated between Chinese teas, i.e. Bai Mu Dan  Xue Ya  White Lung Ching > Anji Needle Mao Feng > Yhin Zhen Bai Hao and between African teas, i.e. White Salima Peony > Thyolo Bsp > Bvumbwe Bsp. Concerning metal chelating activity, all the white teas displayed similar levels (0.3–0.6 mmol/L EDTA Equivalents) with no significant differences between the hot and cold infusions (except Bvumbwe Bsp and Thyolo Bsp). This paper contains key information on the antioxidant properties, TPC, TFC, and individual catechin content of several white teas commercially available and the outcomes suggest that preparing tea infused in room temperature water for approximately 2 h may constitute an alternative tea beverage potentially richer in healthful bioactive compounds compared to the more commonly consumed hot tea infusions.  相似文献

Thinning consists of reducing fruit load at immature stage and thus allowing remaining fruits to develop to their maximum size and quality. The waste material produced during this farming practice was characterised in 9 pomegranate cultivars, by evaluating: weight, size, maturity index, pH, organic acids and sugars profiles, contents of minerals, punicalagin, and ellagic acid, total polyphenols and antioxidant activity. Citric and quinic were the main organic acids. Potassium was the predominant mineral, reaching up to 11 g kg−1 dry weight (dw). Total polyphenol content ranged from 777 to 1660 g GAE kg−1 dw, α-punicalagin from 101 to 195 and β-punicalagin from 80.1 to 111 g kg−1 dw. The antioxidant activity was assessed by three methods and its values varied from 2923 to 4486 for ABTS, from 3153 to 4685 for FRAP, and from 2075 to 2934 mmol Trolox kg−1 dw for DPPH. Pomegranate thinning fruits, especially sour-sweet cultivars, are rich in bioactive compounds, with a potential use in the food, chemical and pharmaceutical industries.  相似文献

Evaluation of the antioxidant activity of components of the diet is important in order to establish healthy consumption patterns. Data are reported here on the antioxidant activity (FRAP and ABTS), of 20 commercial grape juices and 10 typical Spanish wines and on their content of total phenolic compounds, anthocyanins, flavonoids and 10 individual phenolic compounds (flavanols, benzoic acids and cinnamic acids, measured by HPLC-UV). Red grape juices had a significantly higher (p < 0.05) concentration of total phenols (1177 vs. 744 mg gallic acid/L), flavonoids (98 vs. 63 mg catechin/L) and a higher antioxidant activity (9.16 vs. 2.83 meq Trolox/L) in comparison to white grape juices. In comparison to the white wines, white grape juices contained more total phenols (744 vs. 286 mg gallic acid/L) and flavonoids (63 vs. 29 mg catechin/L) and evidenced higher antioxidant activity (p < 0.05). In comparison to the red wines, a lower content of total phenols (286 vs. 2358 mg gallic acid/L) and flavonoids (228 vs. 29 mg catechin/L) and an absence of anthocyanins were observed in the white wines, which are therefore less antioxidant. Although a two-fold higher concentration of antioxidant compounds was found in red wines than in red grape juices, the latter may be a good option for all age groups because of the absence of alcohol and the potentially beneficial health effects of their phenolic composition and elevated antioxidant activity.  相似文献

The objectives of the present study were to develop a simple high performance thin layer chromatography (HPTLC)-based protocol: (i) to allow high-throughput profiling of phenolic compounds of microwaved roots from 295 sweet potato varieties and breeding lines, (ii) to quantify the content of anthocyanins and caffeoylquinic acid (CQA) derivatives, and (iii) to determine their respective contributions to the antioxidant activity of sweet potato methanolic extracts using the DPPH test. Analysed accessions were separated into three groups: white-fleshed (n = 100), orange-fleshed (n = 64) and purple-fleshed (n = 131). Purple-fleshed accessions presented the highest mean CQA content. After DPPH treatment and transmittance scanning of the plate at 517 nm, the most active free radical scavengers were found to be the four CQAs (CGA, 3,4-, 4,5- and 3,5-diCQA) while the anthocyanins were found to be less active. The total antioxidant capacity of the sweet potato methanolic extracts was mostly linked to total CQAs content. This method can now be used for fast routine analysis and selection of sweet potato breeding clones.  相似文献

Physicochemical properties (pH, free, lactonic and total acidity, electrical conductivity and moisture), main mineral content (potassium, sodium, calcium, magnesium and iron) and antioxidant activity (total phenolics, 1,1diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl radical scavenging and ferric reduction antioxidant power) were determined for 39 Portuguese monofloral honeys (rosemary, orange, thyme, arbutus, locust podshrub and heather) with different geographical origins. Portuguese honeys showed good chemical and nutritional qualities fulfilling the criteria described in Directive 2001/110/CE. Potassium was the main mineral component representing 85% of total minerals. The mineral composition of sodium (4.63–200.60 mg/kg), calcium (0.43–72.30 mg/kg), magnesium (3.05–82.20 mg/kg) and iron (below 7.06 mg/kg) were higher for heather, eucalypt and arbutus honeys. Monofloral honeys of arbutus (Arbutus unedo), locust podshrub (Ceratonia siliqua L.) and heather (Erica umbellata) showed higher antioxidant activity with phenolic contents higher than 600 mg gallic acid equivalents (GAE)/kg, a DPPH scavenging activity higher than 50% and a ferric reduction antioxidant power above 600 μM Fe2+. Furthermore, the chemometric analysis revealed that total phenolic content was a crucial variable explaining the antioxidant activity of arbutus and locust podshrub honeys characteristic of the south of Portugal.  相似文献

White and brown Eragrostis tef were assessed for total flavonoid and phenolic content, HPLC profile of the most common phenolics and antioxidant activity including both free and bound phenolics. Antioxidant activity was evaluated in correlation with free and bound phenolics and in vitro digestibility was determined. Content of flavonoids (0.52–1.02 mg RE/g) and phenolics (0.90–1.42 mg GAE/g) as well as antioxidant activity (1.70–4.37 μmol TEAC/g using ABTS method) was higher in free phenolic fraction. Correlation showed that bound flavonoids were not significant contributors to antioxidant activity (R2 = 0.4513 and 0.4893, respectively). The main free phenolics in brown teff were trans-p-coumaric, protocatechuic, ferulic and gallic acids, while the major free phenolics in white teff were rutin, protocatechuic and ferulic acids. The main bound phenolics in brown teff were ferulic and gallic acids, quercetin and catechin, in white teff ferulic acid, rutin, catechin and quercetin. Cooked teff showed very high level of in vitro organic matter digestibility (80.5–85.1%), whereas brown teff was significantly more digestible than white teff (P < 0.05).  相似文献

Total phenolic compounds and antioxidant potential of Hedychium spicatum were analyzed for 16 different natural populations located in Uttarakhand (west Himalaya) for promotion as health or medicinal food. Total phenolic compounds varied among populations from 4.70 mg gallic acid equivalent (GAE) to 2.84 mg GAE/g dry weight. Three in vitro antioxidant assays, i.e. azinobisethylbenzothiazoline-6-sulphonic acid radical scavenging (ABTS) assay, diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) assay and ferric reducing antioxidant power (FRAP) assay, showed significant (p < 0.05) differences across populations. ABTS assay showed highest values of antioxidant potential ranging from 2.581 mM ascorbic acid equivalent (AAE) per 100 g to 1.91 mM AAE per 100 g dry weight, followed by FRAP assay (1.921–0.6635 mM AAE per 100 g). Lowest values were observed for DPPH assay, which varied from 0.549 to 1.059 mM AAE per 100 g dry weight. All assays (ABTS, DPPH and FRAP) showed significant (p < 0.05) correlation with total phenolic compounds. Total phenolic compounds showed a significant relationship (p < 0.05) to altitude.  相似文献

This study aimed to evaluate the antioxidant capacities of various parts of the dabai (Canarium odontophyllum Miq.) fruit. The antioxidant capacities of C. odontophyllum were evaluated using a β-carotene bleaching assay, ferric reducing antioxidant power (FRAP) and 1,1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) radical scavenging assays. Total phenolic content of the dabai fruit was estimated using the Folin–Ciocalteu method. The antioxidant capacities ranked in the following order: skin > flesh + skin > flesh > kernel. Our findings show that a high correlation exists between total phenolic content and total antioxidant activity. This indicates that phenolic compounds could be the major contributors to the antioxidant capacity of C. odontophyllum fruit. Therefore, dabai fruit, especially the skin, can be recommended as a major source of natural antioxidants.  相似文献

This study investigates the physicochemical properties, majority minerals, total phenolic compounds and antioxidant activity of stingless bee honey. Thirty-three samples from ten species were analyzed. The results show moisture as 23.1–43.5% (w/w), the electrical conductivity as 0.150–1.34 mS cm−1, the free acid as 16.2–139 mEq kg−1, the pH as 3.33–6.56, the diastase activity as 4.34–49.6 in Göthe units, the insoluble solids as 55.2–76.1°Brix, the carbohydrates as 48.6–70.5% (w/w) sucrose and the 5-hydroxymethylfurfural (5-HMF) was below the limit of quantitation (LOQ). The most abundant element in the samples was potassium followed by calcium sodium, magnesium and manganese. Stingless bee honeys possess relevant amounts of phenolic compounds and antioxidant activity, suggesting a source of natural antioxidants. The results show that there is great variability in the composition of honey from stingless bees of different species, predominantly flowering and geographical origin. However, it was not possible to identify the real factor influencing its features.  相似文献

Acerola (Malpighia emarginata DC.) is a wild plant from Central America. This fruit is well known as an excellent food source of vitamin C, and it also contains phytochemicals such as carotenoids and polyphenols. The present work evaluates the antioxidant capacity of hydrophilic extracts of acerola pulps and juices by 2,2′-azino-bis-(3-ethylbenzothiazoline-6-sulfonic acid) (ABTS), ORAC and 1,1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) methods. Antioxidant activity values obtained for acerola juice were higher than those reported for other fruit juices particularly rich in polyphenols such as strawberry, grape and apple juices, among others. Vitamin C, total phenol index (TPI), total anthocyanins and polyphenolic compounds by high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC), as main factors responsible for antioxidant activity, were determined. Contents in total ascorbic acid ranged from 6.32 to 9.20 g kg−1 of pulp and 9.44 to 17.97 g L−1 of juice. Five different polyphenolic compounds were identified in the samples by means of HPLC and diode-array detection: chlorogenic acid, (−)-epigallocatechin gallate, (−)-epicatechin, procyanidin B1 and rutin, being the two last predominant. By means of solid phase extraction (SPE) three soluble polyphenolic fractions (phenolic acids, anthocyanins and flavonoids) were separated from the different sample extracts, and their respective antioxidant activities calculated. Among them, phenolic acids are the main contributors to the antioxidant activity.  相似文献

Phenolic compounds in sixteen Cabernet Sauvignon wines from different wine-growing sub-regions in the Balkan region were investigated using HPLC with DAD and fluorescence detector and spectroscopic analysis, as well as statistical PC/F and cluster analysis. The HPLC analysis of investigated red wines showed that the content of total hydroxybenzoic acids, detected at 280 nm, was the highest in wines from Tikveš wine-growing subregion, Macedonia (127–140 mg L−1). Total hydroxycinnamic acids, detected at 320 nm, were the highest in wines from Župa wine-growing subregion, Serbia (43–45 mg L−1). The concentration of total flavonoids (flavan-3-ols, flavonols, flavons and flavanon), detected at 280, 360 and 322/275 nm, respectively, was the highest in wine from Katarzyna Estate wine-growing subregion, Bulgaria (167 mg L−1). Finally, the concentration of total anthocyanins, detected at 520 nm, was the highest in wine from Šumadija wine-growing subregion, Serbia (1463 mg L−1). The results of PCA and cluster analysis together confirmed that the content of phenolic compounds in Cabernet Sauvignon wines depends on agro-climatic factors, oenological practice in different wineries and the growing season in the Balkan region that were investigated. The areas in the Balkan region in this study with similar agro-climatic characteristics showed shorter clustering distance, indicating similar phenol profiling in the red wines tested.  相似文献

Cauliflower (Brassica oleraceae L. var. Botrytis) is a good source of bioactive compounds, such as glucosinolates, phenolic compounds and vitamins. In this study, the effects of some processes (i.e. boiling, steaming) on the sinigrin bioaccessibility as a major glucosinolate found in cruciferous vegetables after in vitro digestion, also in vitro antimutagenic activities, total phenols and total antioxidant capacities of cauliflower were determined. The sinigrin content was reduced by approximately 9.6% and 29.1% in steamed and boiled cauliflower (p > 0.05), respectively. After in vitro simulated digestion, sinigrin content was decreased by 26.4% in raw samples, increased by 29.5% and 114.7% in steamed and boiled samples, respectively. In all samples, mutagenic effect to Salmonella typhimurium TA 100 was not seen. When samples were steamed, phenol content was increased by 14.83%. After boiling total phenol content of cauliflower was decreased by 1.8%. Total antioxidant capacities (TAC) measured by 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) and 2,2′-azino-bis(3 ethylbenzothiazoline-6-sulfonic acid) (ABTS) methods were increased by 47% and 39%, respectively (p < 0.05) in steamed samples and decreased by 8% and 7% with boiling, respectively (p > 0.05). TAC in raw sample of cauliflower, which was investigated in phosphomolybdenum assays, was determined as 18.7 mg ascorbic acid equivalents (AAE)/100 g. In all cases, the highest antioxidant activity was determined in the steamed samples, while the lowest antioxidant activity was in boiled samples.  相似文献

The phenolics from both control and irradiated (3.0 kGy) dried apricots of Halman variety were identified and quantified by HPLC method using external standards. HPLC analysis revealed the presence of seventeen phenolic acids and eight flavonoids in dried apricots. Among the phenolic acids, ten were hydroxybenzoic acid derivatives (HBA), six hydroxycinnamic acid derivatives (HCA) and the one was present as ellagic acid. The most abundant flavonoids present in dried apricots were apigenin followed by quercetin and catechin. The results of the antioxidant activity as determined by DPPH radical scavenging, ferric reducing ability power (FRAP) and β-carotene bleaching assay revealed significant (p  0.05) decrease in EC50 values and corresponding increase in antioxidant profile and activity due to irradiation, in addition to its effect in overcoming quarantine barriers. Irradiation decreased the EC50 values by 19.1%, 13.6%, and 16.1% respectively with respect to control for DPPH, FRAP and β-carotene assays.  相似文献

Spent yeast is the second major by-product from brewing. Mechanical disruption of yeast cell wall can be used to obtain β-glucan rich ingredients and separate inner yeast content, both with potential applications as food and nutraceutical ingredients. In this work, the nutritional composition, including minerals and B-complex vitamins, together with the antioxidant activity and phenolic compounds profile of yeast extract, prepared by mechanic disruption of brewer’s spent yeast and removal of yeast cell wall, was investigated. The lyophilised yeast extract presented 64% of proteins with high proportion of essential amino acids and 4% of RNA; macrominerals (Na, K, Ca, Mg), trace elements such as Zn (11.9 mg/100 g dw), Fe (1.76 mg/100 g dw), and Mn (0.564 mg/100 g dw), and vitamins B3 (77.2 mg/100 mg dw), B6 (55.1 mg/100 g dw) and B9 (3.01 mg/100 g dw). Two phenolic compounds were quantified as free forms, gallic acid and (±) catechin, whereas other bounded phenolic compounds were also quantified. The nutrients content, antioxidant properties and phenolic composition of the lyophilised brewer’s spent yeast extract indicates that it can be an interesting food or nutraceutical ingredient. Thus, its recovery will be beneficial in terms of sustainability and environmental impact.  相似文献

In this study, ionic liquid based microwave-assisted extraction (IL-MAE) followed by high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) was developed for determination of major organic acids in honeysuckle tea. The results suggest that varying the anion and cation had significant effects on the preparative extraction efficiency; aqueous solution of [C6mim]Br was selected as solvent. The optimized extraction parameters were obtained as follows: IL concentration 0.5 M, temperature 50 °C, solvent to material ratio 20:1 mL/g and duration 9 min. Moreover, principal component analysis (PCA) was used to analyze the significances of these factors for IL-MAE and their interactions, and IL concentration was proved to be the most significant parameter. Compared with conventional sample preparation method, the content of organic acids in analytical sample was enhanced about 1.5-fold using IL-MAE in a shorter duration. In addition, a kinetic model of the preparative extraction process was established to fit the experimental data (R2 > 0.99). The proposed HPLC method was successfully applied for determination of 5 organic acids in honeysuckle tea. The present research supported necessary data for sample preparation and quality analysis of honeysuckle tea.  相似文献

Forty-four Asturian ciders were analysed for total phenolic content, phenolic profiles, and antioxidant capacity by the FRAP and the DPPH radical assays. The Folin index of ciders ranged between 446 and 1180 mg gallic acid/L. The phenolic profile of Asturian cider is mainly constituted by phenolic acids, flavan-3-ols, volatile phenols and dihydrochalcones. The methods to determine the antioxidant activity of ciders were optimised in terms of suitable reaction times, within-day and between-day repeatability. Thus, time courses of ciders in the DPPH and the FRAP assays were performed. Mean values for antioxidant activity of cider, expressed in ascorbic acid equivalents were 2.9 mM (as determined by the DPPH assay). When the FRAP assay was used, the antioxidant capacity of cider increased with the reaction time from 3.8 mM (4 min) to 5.4 mM (40 min). Multivariate approaches based on phenolic composition can be useful to predict the antioxidant capacity of cider. Folin index and flavanols and hydrocaffeic acid contents were the best predictors for antioxidant activity.  相似文献

The effect of fertilisation rates of nitrogen: 0 (control treatment—no soil fertilisation), 40, 80 and 120 kg/ha and potassium: 0 (control treatment), 120, 150 and 180 kg/ha on the content of anthocyanins, phenolic acids and antioxidant capacity in purple–blue potato cv. ‘Blue Congo’ was examined. Anthocyanins and phenolic acids were identified and quantified by LC–MS and UPLC–PDA. Nitrogen was more effective in increasing the anthocyanin content—their quantity in tubers after nitrogen application was twice as much as that found after potassium application. Among phenolic acids, the dominant one was chlorogenic acid, the content of which significantly increased after nitrogen fertilisation at 120 kg/ha, in line with the increase in total concentration of phenolic acids and antioxidant capacity. The adjustment of nitrogen and potassium fertilisation levels during the growth of purple–blue potatoes seems to be an effective way to increase the expression of polyphenolic compounds in these cultivars. Therefore, fertilisation with N at 120 kg/ha and K at 120 and 150 kg/ha is recommended as a way to improve the content of biologically active compounds and antioxidant properties, and consequently, to enhance the nutritional value and the functionality of purple–blue potatoes.  相似文献

The oxygen radical absorbance capacity (ORAC–FL) assay, a useful measure of the antioxidant capacity (AC) reported for some biological samples, supplements, and food samples, was standardized and validated for measuring AC of human milk. Limits of linearity, precision and accuracy of the ORAC–FL assay were made by constructing a Trolox Calibrator which included the addition of human milk as the sample matrix. AC assay results indicated excellent linearity (R2 = 0.990 ± 0.005), precision (2.2%) and accuracy on recovery (94.8 ± 3.2%) over a wide range of Trolox concentrations. To validate the assay further, mature milk samples were collected from 100 lactating mothers in Vancouver and Winnipeg, and were measured for vitamin E isomers by HPLC and AC using the standardized ORAC–FL assay. Alpha-tocopherol (α-Toc) was the major vitamin E isomer detected in human milk, established using both ultra-violet and fluorescent detection methods. Milk α-Toc concentrations were found to correlate significantly (P < 0.01) with ORAC–FL assay values in milk obtained from mothers in both Vancouver (R = 0.439, n = 60) and Winnipeg (R = 0.408, n = 40). Although milk is a complex matrix with multiple components possessing potential antioxidant activity, our results indicated that the ORAC–FL assay is a very useful indicator for assessing the antioxidant capacity of human milk.  相似文献

Leaf extract of Stevia rebaudiana promotes effects on certain physiological systems such as the cardiovascular and renal and influences hypertension and hyperglycemia. Since these activities may be correlated with the presence of antioxidant compounds, leaf and callus extracts of Stevia rebaudiana were evaluated for their total phenols, flavonoids content and total antioxidant capacity. Total phenols and flavonoids were analyzed according to the Folin–Ciocalteu method and total antioxidant activity of water and methanolic extracts of stevia leaves and callus was assessed by ferric reducing/antioxidant power (FRAP) assay as well as 1,1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) assay. The total phenolic compounds were found to be 25.18 mg/g for stevia leaves and 35.86 mg/g for callus on dry weight basis. The flavonoids content was found to be 21.73 and 31.99 mg/g in the leaf and callus, respectively. The total antioxidant activity was expressed as mg equivalent of gallic acid, ascorbic acid, BHA and trolox per gram on dry weight basis. Total antioxidant activity found was ranged from 9.66 to 38.24 mg and 11.03 to 36.40 mg equivalent to different standards in water and methanolic extract of stevia leaves, respectively. In case of stevia callus, it was found to be 9.44 to 37.36 mg for water extract and 10.14 to 34.37 mg equivalent to standards for methanolic extract. The concentrations required for 50% inhibition (IC50) of DPPH radicals were 11.04, 41.04 and 57.14 μg/mL for gallic acid, trolox and butylated hydroxyanisole (BHA), respectively. The percent inhibition of DPPH radical of various extracts of stevia leaves and callus found were ranged from 33.17% to 56.82%. The highest percent of inhibition was observed in methanolic extract of callus.  相似文献
