The dough stage of rice plant is a critical stage during the grain development. The rice endosperm continues to expand and the color of the seed coat develops in accordance with rice variety, so it is called as dough grain. This research was carried out to examine nutritional value, bioactive compound and antioxidant activity of Thai dough grain. Ten varieties of pigmented dough grain including non-glutinous and glutinous rice were studied. Principal component analysis (PCA) was conducted to visualize the difference in nutrition amongst ten rice varieties. Hierarchical cluster analysis was used to identify the unique characteristics of each rice variety. Three principal components (PC1-PC3) showed 82.04% of the total variance and could divide pigmented dough grain varieties into 3 groups. Group 1 consisted of a red dough grain (Red Hom Mali). It had the highest total phenolic content as well as high protein and antioxidant activities. Group 2 consisted of two red dough grains (Thabthim Chumphae and Niao Daeng) and two black dough grains (Riceberry and Niaodum Kumbaikeaw), which had moderate antioxidant activities. Group 3 consisted of two green dough grains (Khao Dawk Mali 105 and Kor Khor 6) and three black dough grains (Black Hom Mali, Mali Black Sulin and Niaodum Kumnoiy), exhibiting high gamma oryzanol value but, low total phenolic content. Hence, red and black dough grains had higher nutritional value, total phenolic content, total anthocyanin and antioxidant activities than green dough grains. In addition, dough grains from non-glutinous rice had higher protein and lower fat than those from glutinous rice. Therefore, the data from this research could benefit the utilization of these pigmented dough grain as functional food ingredients and healthy food product.

The effect of processing on potential changes of antioxidant activity (DPPH and ABTS), total phenolic content (TPC) and total flavonoids (FLAV) of feijoa pulp during storage was investigated. In addition, possible modifications in the phenolic composition of the pulp. The pulp was subjected to refrigeration (control, 5 °C), pasteurization (85 °C/5 min) and irradiation (2.0 kGy). TPC, FLAV, DPPH and ABTS were measured during 28 days, whereas the identification and quantification of phenolic compounds were conducted after processing. The results were submitted to principal component analysis (SAS 9.4). Pasteurization preserved TPC, DPPH and ABTS for 21 days, while in the irradiated samples and control, the values were decreased and FLAV were maintained at high levels. The profile of phenolic compounds was different for each sample with six compounds being identified.

This study was aimed at the extraction of total phenolic compounds, as well as, the antioxidant activity of black glutinous rice (Oryza sativa L.). Black glutinous rice of three varieties consists of Leum Pua, Doi Saket, and Phayao were extracted using citric acid solvent. The influences of temperature, time and pH value on total phenolic content and antioxidant activity (percentage of inhibition of DPPH free radical) were investigated. A central composite design was employed to determine the optimum extraction condition to obtain the highest total phenolic content and antioxidant activity. The regression models of total phenolic content were significant (p0.05) and determination coefficients values were 0.8028, 0.8089, and 0.8603 of Leum Pua, Doi Saket, and Phayao, respectively. The regression models of DPPH inhibition were significant (p0.05) and determination coefficients values were 0.8084, 0.8928, and 0.8243 of Leum Pua, Doi Saket, and Phayao, respectively. The selected optimum conditions were 72°C, 91 mins at pH 1.44 for Leum Pua, 72.5°C, 83 mins at pH 1.39 for Doi Saket, and 66.3°C, 75 mins at pH 1.32 for Phayao. Under the optimum condition, total phenolic content and percentage of inhibition of DPPH free radical of extract from Leum Pua, Doi Saket and Phayao were 0.3814 mg GAE g-1 DW with 89.36%, 0.2607 mg GAE g-1 DW with 73.33%, and 0.2617 mg GAE g1 DW with 75.27%, respectively. The results showed that the total phenolic content of the extract indicated a highly positive correlation with antioxidant activity.

The influence of nano-emulsified curcumin (NEC) added to the hair sheep milk, prior to cheese-making, on the chemical composition, lipolysis, and proteolysis of manchego-style cheeses were evaluated throughout 80 days of ripening. The addition of NEC to the milk resulted in cheeses with the same moisture content (42.23%), total protein (23.16%), and water activity (0.969) (p > 0.05). However, it increased the fat and ash levels from 26.82% and 3.64% in B 10 ppm to 30.08% and 3.85% in C 10 ppm, respectively, at the end of the ripening (p < 0.05). The total phenolic content and antioxidant activity of experimental cheeses increased during ripening, and the fatty acid groups showed significant changes occurred to a greater extent in the first days of ripening (p < 0.05). The lipolysis increased consistently in all cheeses until day 40 of ripening, to decrease at the end, while proteolysis increased during all ripening time in all samples (p < 0.05); the addition of NEC did not alter the primary proteolysis of manchego-style cheeses, but it modified secondary proteolysis and lipolysis (p < 0.05). Principal component analysis was useful for discriminating cheeses according to their chemical composition and classified into four groups according to their ripening time. This research highlights the potential of CNE to fortify dairy foods to enhance their functionality.

Oenothera laciniata Hill is a perennial herb traditionally used to alleviate inflammatory complications. This study investigated the antioxidant and anti-melanogenic activities of O. laciniata. The methanolic extract (OLM) of O. laciniata and its different fractions, including ethyl acetate (OLEF), n-butanol (OLBF), and water (OLWF) fractions, were prepared. Antioxidant activities were evaluated by total phenolic content, the radical-scavenging effect on 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH•), 2,2′-azino-bis(3-ethylbenzothiazoline-6-sulfonic acid) (ABTS+•), and superoxide anion (O2−•), reducing capacity, and metal chelating ability. OLM and its fractions exhibited potent antioxidant activity in these in vitro assays, with a correlation between radical-scavenging activity and total phenolic content. OLM and its fractions inhibited the mushroom tyrosinase activity superior to the reference control, ascorbic acid. In B16-F10 melanoma cells, OLM and its fractions significantly decreased melanin production and tyrosinase activity. Mechanistic investigations revealed that OLM and its fractions inhibited tyrosinase and TRP-2 expressions via downregulating MITF and phosphorylated CREB and differentially inducing ERK or JNK phosphorylation. Additionally, OLM and its fractions caused no significant cytotoxicity towards B16-F10 or skin fibroblast cells at concentrations used in these cellular assays. These findings demonstrated the potential of O. laciniata extracts as the ideal skin protective agent with dual antioxidant and anti-melanogenic activities.

In the past few years, there has been a renewed interest in studying a wide variety of food products that show beneficial effects on human health.Capsicumis an important agricultural crop, not only because its economic importance, but also for the nutritional values of its pods, mainly due to the fact that they are an excellent source of antioxidant compounds, and also of specific constituents such as the pungent capsaicinoids localized in the placental tissue. This current study was designed to evaluate the antioxidant capacity and total phenolic contents from fruits tissues of twoCapsicum chinenseaccessions, namely, Chak k’an-iik (orange) and MR8H (red), at contrasting maturation stages. Results showed that red immature placental tissue, with a Trolox equivalent antioxidant capacity (TEAC) value of 55.59 μmols TE g−1 FW, exhibited the strongest total antioxidant capacity using both the 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) and the CUPRAC methods. Placental tissue also had the highest total phenolic content (27 g GAE 100 g−1 FW). The antioxidant capacity ofCapsicumwas directly related to the total amount of phenolic compounds detected. In particular, placentas had high levels of capsaicinoids, which might be the principal responsible for their strong antioxidant activities.

The phenolic content and antioxidant potential of malting barley are important in brewing. The objective of our study was to investigate the effects of barley genotype, growing environment, and malting conditions on the total phenolic content and antioxidant activities of malting barley grown in North America. Eight barley cultivars grown at three locations over three years were used. For the malting study, a single barley cultivar, separated into different kernel size fractions, was germinated for various periods of time and then processed by kilning or freeze-drying. Total phenolic content (TPC) and some of the antioxidant activities, including DPPH, ABTS, and superoxide anion radical scavenging activities, reducing power, and iron (II) chelating activity, were significantly impacted by the barley genotype, growth environment, and their interactions. The TPC and most antioxidant activities were also influenced by malting conditions and were generally higher in the malted barleys of the thin kernel size fraction, four-day germination, and in samples processed by kilning, when compared to the plumper kernel size fractions, one and two days of germination, and freeze-dried samples, respectively. There were interactions between malting parameters, and stepwise regression analysis was used to suggest the contribution of each parameter to the TPC and antioxidant activities.
