The increase in the costs of storage and disposal of post-production residues has resulted in the search for new directions for their recycling, which is closely related to the necessity of protecting the natural environment and promoting a circular economy. Moreover, the apparent interest shown by the food market in raw materials with high antioxidant activity implies an increasing use of by-products. The objective of the study was to determine the effect of the type and concentration of the solvent on the efficiency of extracting polyphenols from distillery stillage as well as their antioxidant activity by using several solvents: methanol:water (70:30 v/v), methanol:water (100:0 v/v), ethanol:water (70:30 v/v) or ethanol:water (100:0 v/v). The DPPH radical method was used to determine the antioxidant activity of the obtained extracts. The normalised variable (NV) and statistical measure (MS) were determined, based on which the effectiveness of the solvents was evaluated. The highest polyphenolic content and the antioxidant activity were obtained by using ethanol:water (70:30 v/v) as a solvent in the extraction of polyphenolic compounds from distillery stillage.

Dry sheet food products or nori-like products can be produced from the mixture of Gelidium sp. and Ulva lactuca seaweeds, which is called geluring. Making geluring involves heat application that may influence the chemical composition of the product. The goal of this study was to evaluate the chemical characteristics of geluring by measuring proximate composition; dietary fiber, total phenolic, and flavonoid contents; and antioxidant activity(by DPPH analysis)of geluring and compare the values to those of the raw materials. Three types of geluring were prepared following commercial nori preparation procedures with some modifications: P1 (unseasoned), P2 (seasoned), and P3 (seasoned and roasted).The proximate composition of geluring products and raw materials differed significantly(P<0.05). Geluring fiber contents were not significantly different (P>0.05) among P1 (29.19±0.26%), P2 (29.42±0.66%), and P3 (29.83±0.11%), but these values differed significantly (P<0.05) from those of the raw materials. The total phenolic content, flavonoid content, and DPPH activity of P2geluringwere 1.38 mg GAE/g, 1.11 mg QE/g, and 61.23%, respectively, which were significantly (P<0.05) higher than those of P1 and P3 but lower than those of the raw materials. These results suggest that geluring processing might negatively impact the chemical composition of the products, but they still have high antioxidant activity and dietary fiber content and thus have potential for utilization as a functional food product.

Edible jellyfish have been consumed as food for more than a century with offering high protein and crunchy texture. The pepsin hydrolysis of jellyfish protein yields jellyfish protein hydrolysate (ep-JPH), reported for potential bioactivities such as antioxidant activity or antihypertensive activities. Due to the substantial number of by-products generated from jellyfish processing, the by-products were then selected as a raw material of JPH production. This research aimed to evaluate the effect of the hydrolysis time of pepsin on the antioxidant activity of ep-JPH. The dried desalted jellyfish by-products powder was enzymatically hydrolysed by 5% (w/w) pepsin, and the hydrolysis time was varied from 6, 12, 18, and 24 h at 37oC. Results showed that increased hydrolysis time increased the degree of hydrolysis (DH) and inhibition of DPPH radical. The 24 h ep-JPH possessed the highest DH and the highest inhibitory effect of DPPH radical. The results demonstrated that, in this experiment, all ep-JPHs were DPPH radical scavengers, exhibiting different inhibition activities depending on DH values.

Ten Indian herbs (Manjisth, Tagar, Kulfa, Khuskhus, Gokharu, Carrot, Kasni, Bathua, Soya ke Beej, Pudina), popularly used for medicinal purpose, were extracted in sonicator by methanol and water for the estimation of polyphenols and flavonoids. Antioxidant capacities (AOC) of extracts were evaluated based on their ability to scavenge the DPPH radical and FRAP Assay. The results showed that methanolic extract of all the plant materials had very high antioxidant activity. Amongst them, Pudina extract in the methanol showed highest value of AOC by both FRAP and DPPH methods (33 percent and 1.36 mg QEq / 100 g). Total phenol and flavonoids content were also evaluated for these extracts. It varied from 0.8736 to 6.3918 mg GAE / 100 g and 0.3642 to 1.9876 mg QE / 100 g. Total ash content and acid insoluble content of soya showed highest value i.e. 14.55 percent and 92.92 percent.

The objective of this study is to investigate the bioactive compounds and antioxidant activity of coffee and tea mangrove (locally known in Indonesia) produced from the fruit of Rhizophora stylosa. Furthermore, three raw materials of coffee mangrove were also investigated to clarify their potencies. The crude extracts of five samples were subjected to antioxidant assay using DPPH. The results show that the extract of tea mangrove has the strongest activity; then, it was successfully fractionated using different polarity of solvents and yielded acetone and methanol fractions that had high antioxidant activity. The acetone fraction was purified and gave fractions A1, A2, A3, A4, A5, and A6, but only A2 and A3 indicated antioxidant activity and, therefore, they were subjected to further purification. Fractions A3 (caffeine) and A2 gave AS1 (N,N-dimethyl-L-alanine), AS2 (quercetin-3-O-galactopyranoside), AS3 (dodecanoic acid), and AS4 that had the similar 1H-NMR spectrometric results with AS2, while the methanol fraction did not exhibit clear peaks on the chromatogram by HPLC. Therefore, the precipitation method was conducted to purify this fraction, and the precipitate was analyzed by NMR spectra. The results from 1H and 13C NMR indicate that this fraction is a typical polymer of condensed tannins, containing procyanidin and prodelphinidin units.

The main reason for spoilage of berry raw materials is the high water content in it. And in order to increase the shelf life of such raw materials and products based on it, various dehydration methods are used. Osmotic dehydration, considered in this article, is one of the best and suitable methods for increasing the shelf life of berry products, as well as increasing the biological value of the product. This method is preferred relative to other methods of dehydration due to the fact that when it is used in raw materials, more vitamins and minerals are preserved, and the color, aroma and taste of berries are also better preserved. Osmotic dehydration is a process due to the presence of semi-permeable membranes, during which the concentration is balanced. Osmosis takes place during the immersion of fruits in concentrated solutions of osmotically active substances. In such a system, two opposite processes occur: water diffuses from the product into the solution, and the dissolved substance diffuses from the solution into the product. This article discusses the features of the process of osmotic dehydration of blackcurrant berries. Blackcurrant is a promising raw material for processing enterprises. The berry contains a large amount of ascorbic acid, anthocyanins and has a high antioxidant activity. Methods were studied for samples of dried blackcurrant berries (by convection), with preliminary osmotic dehydration with various osmotic agents (sucrose, flower honey), using the following methods: ascorbic acid and antioxidant activity were determined titrimetrically using the Folin-Ciocalteu reagent polyphenols, spectrophotometrically anthocyanins.
