Abstract Objectives Cacao(Theobroma cacao) has been widely consumed since more than 4000 years ago which was regarded as sacred food. Cacao has been considered as a strong antioxidant due to its abundant phenolic and especially flavonoid contents. In this experiment, different extraction solvents and methods were used to analyze whether these factors affect the antioxidant activities and phytochemical compounds of cacao powder extracts. Methods Four different cacao extract samples were examined to identify their anti-oxidative activities; raw cacao powder extracted in 70% methanol solution(RM), raw cacao powder extracted in 80% ethanol solution(RE), freeze dried cacao powder extracted in 70% methanol solution(FM), freeze dried cacao powder extracted in 80% ethanol solution(FE). Total phenolic compound content was calculated based on gallic acid standard curve and total flavonoid content was calculated based on the standard curve of quercetin. ABTS scavenging activity was experimented with ABTS reagent diluted by PBS(pH7.4) to make the O.D. value 0.7 ± 0.02 at 734 nm before using 2.5 mM ABTS. The DPPH radical scavenging activity was assessed by 1 mM DPPH methanol solution. Results The contents of total phenol compounds were 45.4 mg GAE/g(RM), 37.3 mg GAE/g(RE), 50.6 mg GAE/g(FM), and 52.7 mg GAE/g(FE). The contents of total flavonoid compounds were 34.3 mg QE/g(RM), 29.7 mg QE/g(RE), 85.1 mg QE/g(FM), and 89.7 mg QE/g(FE). FM group showed the highest ABTS radical scavenging activity which is a marker of antioxidant activity but the other sample groups represented almost as high ABTS radical scavenging activity as FM group. RM group showed the highest DPPH radical scavenging activity which is also a marker of antioxidant activity. Conclusions The results show that different extract solvents and sample preparation methods affect DPPH radical scavenging activity, total phenol and flavonoid contents of cacao powder extracts. Therefore, appropriate methods should be applied according to the purpose of the study. Funding Sources Department of Food and Nutrition, Sookmyung Women's University, Republic of Korea.

The antioxidant activities of eighteen different essential oil components have been determined using the 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) radical-scavenging assay, the 2,2 ’-azino-bis(3-ethylbenzothiazoline-6-sulphonic acid (ABTS) radical cation assay, and the ferric reducing antioxidant power (FRAP) assay. The phenolic compounds, carvacrol, thymol, and eugenol, showed the best antioxidant activities, while camphor, menthol, and menthone were the least active. The structural and electronic properties of the essential oil components were assessed using density functional theory (DFT) at the B3LYP/6-311++G** level. Correlations between calculated electronic properties and antioxidant activities were generally poor, but bond-dissociation energies (BDEs) seem to correlate with DPPH radical-scavenging activities, and the ferric reducing antioxidant power (FRAP) assay correlated with vertical ionization potentials calculated at the Hartree-Fock/6-311++G** level.

Abstract Two different non-specific proteolytic enzymes (papain and pepsin) and two carbohydrase enzymes (α-amylase and β-amylase) were used for the depolymerization of chitosan to produce chitooligosaccharides (COS). The COS produced using papain, pepsin, α-amylase and β-amylase were characterized for physico-chemical, structural, thermal and antioxidant activities. Chitooligosaccharides produced using pepsin enzyme had higher solubility compared to other three COS. Structural variation of chitosan and their oligosaccharides were studied by FTIR analysis and it revealed the existence of various structural difference among the oligosaccharides and chitosan. Thermal behavior of chitosan and oligosaccharides were examined using DSC analysis, and it exhibits difference in the glass transition temperature among the four oligosaccharides and native chitosan. Anti-oxidant analysis such as DPPH radical scavenging activity and reducing power revealed the antioxidant ability of chitooligosaccharides. Among the four COS, pepsin-COS had the highest DPPH radical scavenging and reducing power activity. According to the patterns of molecular weight reduction, antioxidant properties, thermal behavior properties, four enzymes α- amylase, β-amylase, pepsin and papain found suitable for hydrolyzing chitosan into chitooligosaccharide. As it is superior to chitosan, chitooligosaccharide can be utilized in food industry as bio-preservatives to enhance the quality, safety and shelf life of the products.

Antioxidant activities of essential oils from leaves of Piper betle L. (T) and Cleistocalyx operculatus L. (V), and aerial parts of Ageratum conyzoides L. (H) natively grown in Thua Thien Hue province of Vietnam were investigated.Quantitative structure–activity relationship (QSAR) model was constructed from the 27 compounds including 4-hydroxy-chromene-2H-one and its derivatives. DPPH (1,1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl) radical scavenging activity was applied to estimate the antioxidant property of these essential oils through IC50 (mg/mL) values. QSAR model is used to predict the radical scavenging activity IC50 mg/mL of T, V, and H. The results indicate that there is a good agreement between the experimental data and the predicted values using the QSAR model. The three essential oils display the DPPH radical scavenging activities with the IC50 values being in the order of T > H > V of 3.71 mg/mL,596.44 mg/mL and 637.03 mg/mL, respectively. The essential oil of T exhibits the strong DPPH radical scavenging activity that is close to the reference compound ascorbic acid (IC50 value of 3.03 mg /mL).
