Hempseed (Cannabis sativa L.) cake is a by-product after cold-pressing of oil from the hempseed, which is rich in protein and fiber. This study investigated the effect of hempseed cake incorporation on the physicochemical and antioxidant properties of reconstructed potato chips. Varying levels of hempseed cake (0, 5%, 10%, 15%, and 20%) were added, and the results showed that the addition of hempseed cake at 20% level significantly increased the protein and total dietary fiber content from 2.74 ± 0.62 g/100 g to 9.66 ± 0.28 g/100 g and from 2.76 ± 0.31 g/100 g to 13.57 ± 0.42 g/100 g, respectively. In addition, a 20% reduction in lipid content was observed in the 20% hempseed cake addition group. Furthermore, lightness value (L*) was significantly reduced from 72.23 ± 1.22 to 46.40 ± 1.76, while the hardness was enhanced with a higher level of hempseed cake supplementation in the potato chips sample. Compared with the control (no hempseed cake), the supplement of 20% cake increased the total phenolic content from 0.19 ± 0.01 to 0.26 ± 0.01 mg GAE/g. The ABTS radical scavenging rate was also significantly enhanced with the increased levels of hemp cake. However, the peroxide value and TBARS results showed that the addition of hempseed cake accelerated the lipid oxidation in the sample, possibly due to the highly unsaturated fatty acid residues in the hempseed cake. The results suggested that more research is needed for the incorporation of hempseed cake in potato chips.

Ruta angustifolia was used in this study in order to evaluate the antimicrobial activity and antioxidant properties and its correlation with the polyphenolic content. Two Gram-positive bacteria (Staphylococcus aureus ATCC 25923, Bacillus cereus ATCC 11778) and two Gram–negative bacteria (Pseudomonas aeruginosa ATCC 27853, Escherichia coli ATCC 8739) were used to determine the antibacterial activity. Aqueous maceration extract was used for antioxidant activities and methanolic maceration extract was used for antibacterial activity. The antioxidant properties and activities were evaluated by using total phenolic content (TPC), total flavonoid content (TFC), DPPH free radical scavenging activity and beta-carotene bleaching method. Whereas, the antibacterial activity was examined using disc diffusion method against selected microorganism at concentration 1.0 mg/disc. The results showed the phenolic content of R. angustifolia extract was 18.89 g GAE/100 g extract while the flavonoid content was 14.170 g QE/100 g extract. R. angustifolia exhibited good radical scavenging with IC50 value of 2.04 mg/ml. The result for disc diffusion method showed no inhibition zone against all the strains of bacteria at 1.0 mg/disc concentration of the extract. Based on the results, it can be concluded that the R. angustifolia aqueous extract has the antioxidant properties and there is correlation between polyphenolic content of the extract with its antioxidant activity. However, R. angustifolia methanolic extract did not show any antibacterial activity.

Abstract In order to explore the potential drying process, the effects of different drying methods (sun drying, hot-air drying, microwave-vacuum drying, and freeze drying) on the antioxidant properties and phenolic contents in white button mushroom fruit bodies were investigated. The Folin-Ciocalteu method was used to determine total phenolic content, while 1,1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) radical scavenging, reducing power, iron-chelating ability, and hydroxyl radical scavenging activity assays were used to elucidate antioxidant activities. Results indicated that antioxidant properties in dried white button mushroom were affected by the drying methods to different extents, and phenolic contents showed significant differences (p<0.05) among different drying methods. Microwave-vacuum drying possessed the highest antioxidant activity in DPPH radical scavenging, reducing power and iron-chelating ability, respectively; and the content of phenolic compounds was 4.945 mg gallic acid equivalents (GAE) /g dry weight (DW). Sun drying was the worst in antioxidant activity and content of phenolic compounds was 1.964 mg GAE/g DW. Additionally, significantly positive correlation was found between the total phenolic content and antioxidant activity (p<0.01). As far as antioxidant activities are concerned, microwave-vacuum drying is proposed as an appropriate drying technique for white button mushroom.

Purpose: The investigation of Equisetum ramosissimum Desf. (Equisetaceae) extracts for total phenolic content, potential antioxidant properties, and antibacterial activity against Propioni bacterium acne and antityrosinase effects.Methods: The aerial parts of the E. ramosissimum from Jordan were extracted by maceration and Soxhlet methods, using solvents of different polarities. The composition of the extracts were qualitatively screened using standard phytochemical tests. Quantitatively, total phenolic content (mg/mL, equivalent to gallic acid), ABTS free radical scavenging activity (IC50), anti-P. acne (MIC and MBC), and tyrosinase inhibitory effects (IC50) were also determined.Results: The aqueous-methanol Soxhlet extract contained the highest total phenolic content (0.675 mg/mL gallic acid equivalents). Besides, phytochemical screening tests revealed the presence of phenols, flavonoids, tannins, alkaloids and saponins in the aqueous methanol Soxhlet extract, contributing to the antioxidant (IC50 = 0.125) and antityrosinase (IC50 = 1.125) effects. This extract also showed potent antimicrobial effects against P. acne (MIC = 6.250 mg/mL; MBC = 12.500 mg/mL). Other extracts, including ethanol, water and ethyl acetate, showed lower total phenolic content with moderate and weak biological activity.Conclusion: E. ramosissimum is a promising plant species to be considered for antioxidant, antiacne, and antityrosinase effects. However, further testing (including invivo, histological examination, and highperformance liquid chromatography (HPLC) analysis) is necessary to understand more about its mechanisms of action.

Lettuce ( Lactuca sativa) is an important leaf vegetable crop worldwide. The total phenolic content was higher in the red skirt methanol extracts with a level of 64.9 ± 0.3 mg GA/g, and phenolic content of green skirt was 49.4 ± 0.3 mg GA/g. The total flavonoid content in the methanol extract of red skirt showed the highest concentration (291.6 ± 9.0 mg rutin/g), followed by green skirt (223 ± 9.8 mg rutin/g). The red skirt showed a higher content of anthocyanin (23.7 ± 0.8 mg/100 g) compared to the green skirt (7.4 ± 0.9 mg/100 g). Seven carotenoids i.e., lutein, β–carotene, 9 Z–β–carotene, 13 Z–β–carotene, violaxanthin, zeaxanthin, and α–carotene were detected in both cultivars. The polar metabolites are strongly associated with the metabolites that participate in the TCA cycle. Correlations between primary and secondary metabolites were easily achieved by gas chromatography-time-of-flight mass spectrometry (GC-TOFMS)-based metabolite profiling method. Red skirt methanol extract showed 77.5 ± 0.4% 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) activity, 50.8 ± 0.8% hydrogen peroxide radical scavenging assay and absorbance value (0.052) reducing power assay at 250 μL/mL, having significantly higher activity than the green skirt extract. The red lettuce extract also showed higher levels of phenolic compounds, flavonoids, and anthocyanins, and it possesses more antioxidant properties compared to the green skirt extract. In this study we compared two cultivars of lettuce, red skirt and green skirt, for various nutritional parameters and to understand the association of secondary metabolites with their corresponding primary metabolites. From the overall analysis, it is confirmed that GC-TOFMS-based metabolite profiling is an appropriate method for determining biochemical reactions and also acts as a combined resource to understand primary and secondary metabolism.

Purpose – This paper aims to focus on the antioxidant properties and consumer acceptability of biscuits produced from pearl millet (PM)–tiger nut (TN) composite blends, with the aim of encouraging the use of these under-utilised food crops in producing value-added products with nutraceutical potential. Design/methodology/approach – PM grains and TN seeds were processed into flour and blended at ratios: 15:85 (A), 20:80 (B), 25:75 (C), 30:70 (D), 35:65 (E), 40:60 (F), 45:55 (G), of PM to TN using response surface methodology. The antioxidant properties of the biscuits produced from the flour blends were determined using standard methods, and data obtained were subjected to analysis of variance (ANOVA); differences of means were separated using Duncan multiple range test. The biscuits were subjected to sensory evaluation using 50 untrained panellist and results statistically analysed. Findings – The total phenolic content (TPC-mg/GAE) of PM–TN flour blends ranged from 2.65-4.95 (A-G), with an average TPC of 3.85. In PM–TN biscuits, total phenolic values ranged from 1.20-3.42 (A-G), with an average of 2.39. The 2,2′-azino-bis(3-ethyl benzothiazoline-6-sulfonic acid) diammonium salt (ABTS) radical scavenging activities (μmolTEAC/g) of PM–TN flour blends ranged from 26.7-36.4 (A-G), and the values for biscuits ranged from 28.5-38.6 (A-G). There was a highly significant correlation, r = 0.811(p < 0.001) and r = 0.913 (p < 0.001) between phenolic content and antioxidant activity for flour and biscuit, respectively. The effect of in vitro digestion of biscuits on the antioxidant assays viz-a-viz: TPC and ABTS radical scavenging activities were also investigated. The order of phenolic release was enzymic > aqueous > ethanolic digest for TPC, while for ABTS, the order of release was enzymic > ethanolic > aqueous. The highest values for antioxidant properties were found in the simulated in vitro enzyme digested biscuits. Consumer acceptability revealed that the overall acceptability scores of the biscuits were not significantly different except for biscuit sample G. Originality/value – The paper has demonstrated the antioxidant potentials and consumer acceptability of PM–TN biscuits. It also shows the effect of in vitro digestion on the antioxidant activities of the biscuit and its potential health benefit, as a source of antioxidant.

Echinocystis lobata (Mich.) Torr. et Gray extracts were investigated for their bioactive compounds and their potential for natural antioxidant properties. In vitro antioxidant activity of methanol, ethanol, and water extracts were evaluated by 1,1-diphenyl-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) radical scavenging activity. Total phenolic content (TPC) and total flavonoid content (TFC) of fruits and seeds were determined. TPC is a fairly constant value and varies weakly both among the different organs of Echinocystis lobata and among the geographical locations of the populations studied. Like other invasive species, Echinocystis lobata is superior to many other plants in terms of the total amount of flavonoids contained in its fruits and seeds. The dried fruits contain more flavonoids than the seeds. Seeds from Slovak populations have higher flavonoid content than those from Russian populations. The results demonstrated that Echinocystis lobata can be a good source of natural antioxidants and have a great potential for commercialization, especially in the pharmaceutical industry.

Tempeh is an Indonesian traditional fermented soybean food that is well known for its nutritional value and health benefit. This study aimed to evaluate the effects of two commonly used packaging materials in tempeh production, namely banana leaf and polyethylene bag, on the antioxidant properties. Isoflavones, include daidzein and genistein, of tempeh fermented in banana leaf (TBL) and polyethylene bag (TP) were analysed with high-performance liquid chromatography. Total phenolic content and antioxidant activities were evaluated using Folin-Ciocalteu reagent, DPPH radical scavenging and β-carotene-linoleate bleaching assays, respectively. The changes of antioxidant properties of tempeh after different fermentation periods in both wrapping materials were observed, on day 0 (unfermented), day 1, day 2 and day 4. Total phenolic content, daidzein, genistein and the antioxidant activities were significantly (p < 0.05) increased in both TBL and TP as the fermentation progressed. A higher total phenolic content was found in TBL on day 1 and day 2 but TP exhibited the highest total phenolic content on day 4. Daidzein was the highest in TBL on day 2 but it was reduced on day 4 while genistein was the highest in TP on day 4. Antioxidant activities were positively (r = 0.272–0.969, p < 0.05) correlated to total phenolic content, daidzein and genistein. Although tempeh wrapped in banana leaf is a traditional way for tempeh packaging, it provided better antioxidant properties on day 1 and day 2, which is within the best period of tempeh consumption. Hence, the current findings provided useful information to manufacturer and consumer in selecting the suitable wrapping material for tempeh with optimal phytonutrients.
