The multivariate calibration methods—principal component regression (PCR) and partial least squares (PLSs)—were employed for the prediction of total phenol contents of four Prunella species. High performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) and spectrophotometric approaches were used to determine the total phenol content of the Prunella samples. Several preprocessing techniques such as smoothing, normalization, and column centering were employed to extract the chemically relevant information from the data after alignment with correlation optimized warping (COW). The importance of the preprocessing was investigated by calculating the root mean square error (RMSE) for the calibration set of the total phenol content of Prunella samples. The models developed based on the preprocessed data were able to predict the total phenol content with a precision comparable to that of the reference of the Folin-Ciocalteu method. PLS model seems preferable, because of its predictive and describing abilities and good interpretability of the contribution of compounds to the total phenol content. Multivariate calibration methods were constructed to model the total phenol content of the Prunella samples from the HPLC profiles and indicate peaks responsible for the total phenol content successfully.

In Peru, Caulerpa filiformis is a marine algae listed as an invasive species. For years, its distribution has been considered to be in the north coast (Isla Lobos de Afuera and Piura) until a recent report of its distribution in the central coast (Ancash, Lima, and Ica). The present investigation aims to determine the main groups of secondary metabolites, total phenol content, and antioxidant activity of the methanolic extract of C. filiformis from Sechura Bay (Piura) and Paracas Bay (Ica). The main chemical groups were determined through phytochemical screening, the content of phenols by the Folin–Ciocalteu method, and antioxidant activity by the ABTS method (2,2-azinobis-[3-ethylbenzothiazoline-6-sulfonic acid]) and 2,2′-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH). The phytochemical screening of the methanolic extract of C. filiformis from Sechura Bay and Paracas Bay revealed the presence of carbohydrates, polyphenols, tannins, flavonoids, lipids, alkaloids, steroids, and triterpenes for both extracts. The total phenol content of the extract of C. filiformis from Sechura Bay (39.31 ± 0.39 mg of AGE/g extract) was significantly higher (p < 0.05) than that from Paracas Bay (18.78 ± 0.31 mg of AGE/g extract). In the ABTS and DPPH assays, the antioxidant capacity of the Sechura C. filiformis extract (IC50 = 3.49 ± 0.01 and 2.18 ± 0.02 mg/mL) was significantly higher (p < 0.05) than that of the Paracas C. filiformis extract (IC50 = 6.41 ± 0.02 and 2.42 ± 0.04 mg /mL). These findings suggest that the methanolic extract of C. filiformis is a source of secondary metabolites with an antioxidant potential.

Blackberries are an important option for the diversification of fruit crops. However, there is currently no literature regarding plant cultivation in high-altitude tropical climates. Knowledge of the phenolic composition of blackberries is essential because variations in the levels of these components may exist between cultivars and may depend on environmental conditions. High performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) was used to evaluate the total phenol content of different blackberry cultivars (Arapaho, Brazos, Cainguangue, Cherokee, Choctaw, Comanche, Ébano, Guarani, Tupy and Xavante). Free radical scavenging activity in these cultivars was assayed using a DPPH test. The HPLC-UV chromatogram of blackberry fruit extracts at 280 nm revealed the presence of phenolic compounds. The results showed significant differences in the levels of phenolic compounds in the blackberry cultivars tested. Antioxidant activity was evaluated using the ABTS free radical and ranged from 2.7 ± 0.1 to 19 ± 2 μmole of Trolox equivalents per gram of sample (b.u.). These results are in good correlation with the phenolic contents of the blackberries tested. The Xavante blackberry cultivar had the highest levels of polyphenols that could be individually identified. Catechin polyphenols were found to be the main component in the blackberry varieties tested.

This study was designed to determine the polyphenolic contents of Eucommia ulmoicles Oliv leaf extracts and evaluate their antioxidant activities in vitro. All the extracts were evaluated for their radical scavenging activity by the DPPH method and their oxidative-retarding efficiency in vegetable oils. It was observed that the highest values were found in 70% MeOH extracts for total phenolic content as gallic acid. A good correlation between antioxidant activity and total phenol content in the extracts was found. The extraction yield, total phenol content and radical scavenging activity were increased and peroxide formation in vegetable oils were decreased with the graded solvent concentration of MeOH. The phenolic compound yield ranged from 2.45 to 11.35% and the total phenol content increased from 34.51 mg/g to 47.68 mg/g. DPPH scavenging activity increased from 56.32% to 90.37% as MeOH concentration increased. Compared to the control (70.45 meq/kg), 70% MeOH fraction with 47.68 mg/g phenolic compounds shows much stronger antioxidant ability (30.12 meq/kg) in vegetable oil system.

Abstract Two multivariate validated spectrophotometric methods, namely partial least-squares (PLS) and principal component regression (PCR), were developed and validated for the determination of ibuprofen and famotidine in presence of famotidine degradation products and ibuprofen impurity (4-isobutylacetophenone). A calibration set was prepared in which the two drugs together with the degradation products and impurity were modeled using a multilevel multifactor design. This calibration set was used to build the PLS and PCR models. The proposed models successfully predicted the concentrations of both drugs in validation samples, with low root mean square error of cross validation (RMSECV) percentage. The method was validated by the estimate of the figures of merit depending on the net analyte signal. The results of the two models showed that the simultaneous determination of both drugs could be performed in the concentration ranges of 100–500 µg/mL for ibuprofen and 5–25 µg/mL for famotidine. The proposed multivariate calibration methods were applied for the determination of ibuprofen and famotidine in their pharmaceutical formulation, and the results were verified by the standard addition technique.

Background: Haloperidol (HP) and Risperidone (RIS) are antipsychotic drugs and the simultaneous determination of these drugs is important. Estimation of HP and RIS alone or in combination with other drugs has been performed in a variety of ways. Objective: The aim of this paper was to propose a rapid, simple, accurate, and robust method for the simultaneous determination of HP and RIS using artificial neural networks (ANNs), partial least squares (PLS), and principal component regression (PCR) methods along with spectrophotometry technique. Methods: The simultaneous spectrophotometric determination of HP and RIS in synthetic mixtures and biological fluid was performed by applying ANNs containing feed forward backpropagation (FFBP) and radial basis function (RBF) networks as intelligent methods, as well as PLS, and principal component regression PCR as multivariate calibration methods. The Levenberg–Marquardt (LM), Scaled conjugate gradient (SCG), and Resilient Back-propagation (RP) algorithms with different layers and neurons were used in FFBP network and obtained results were compared with each other. Results: Among various algorithms of the FFBP network, the LM algorithm was selected as the best model with a lower mean square error (MSE). MSE of the RBF model was 1.46×10-25 and 1.62×10-23 for HP and RIS, respectively. On the other hand, the mean recovery of PLS and PCR was 99.91%, 100.01% and 98.60%, 101.90% for HP and RIS, respectively. Conclusion: The proposed models and high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) as a reference method were compared with each other by one-way analysis of variance (ANOVA) test at the 95 % confidence level for the urine sample. It was observed that the developed methods presented comparable results for the simultaneous determination of HP and RIS.

Often the primary goal of analytical measurement tasks is not to find good estimates of continuous reference values but rather to determine whether a sample belongs to one of a number of categories or subgroups. In this paper the potential of different statistical techniques in the classification of raw beef samples in tenderness subgroups was studied. The reference values were based on sensory analysis of beef tenderness of 90 samples from bovine M. longissimus dorsi muscles. The sample set was divided into three categories—very tough, intermediate, and very tender—according to degree of tenderness. A training set of samples was used to find the relationship between category and near-infrared (NIR) spectroscopic measurements. The study indicates that classical discriminant analysis has advantages in comparison to multivariate calibration methods [i.e., principal component regression (PCR)], in this application. One reason for this observation seems to be that PCR underestimates high measurement values and overestimates low values. In this way most samples are assigned to the intermediate group of samples, causing a small number of erroneous classifications for the intermediate subgroup, but a large number of errors for the two extreme groups. With the use of PCR the number of correct classifications in the extreme subgroups was as low as 23%, while the use of discriminate analysis increased this number to almost 60%. The number of classifications in correct or neighbor subgroup for the two extreme subgroups was equal to 97%. A “bias-correction” was also attempted for PCR, and this gave results comparable to the best results obtained by discriminant analysis methods. Test sets used NIR analysis of fresh, raw beef samples with different processing. While this spectroscopic approach had previously been shown to be useful with frozen products, it appears unsuitable at this time for fresh beef. However, its marginal analytical utility proved useful in evaluating the two classification approaches employed in this study.

The purpose of this study was to compare the nutritional components and antioxidant activities of two different cultivars of Brassica juncea (Dolsan, Yeosu, Korea (BJD) and (Jeongseon, Gangwon, Korea (BJJ)). We investigated the proximate composition (moisture, crude ash, crude protein and crude lipid), antioxidant activities (2,2-Diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazil (DPPH) scavenging activity and ferric reducing antioxidant power (FRAP)), total phenol content, total flavonoid content and sinigrin content by high-performance liquid chromatography analysis. Our results show that the proximate compositions of BJD and BJJ were not significantly different. However, both the DPPH radical scavenging and FRAP activities of the BJJ extracts were higher than those of the BJD extracts. The total phenol contents of the BJD and BJJ extracts were 6.56 and 9.80 mg gallic acid equivalent/g, respectively. The total flavonoids content of the BJD and BJJ extracts were 20.92 and 34.81 mg rutin equivalent/g, respectively, whereas the sinigrin contents, one of the major compounds in BJD and BJJ extracts, were 16.16 mg/g and 11.73 mg/g, respectively. In this study, we confirmed that, by comparing BJJ and BJD, the sinigrin content of BJD was higher than that of BJJ, but the antioxidant activity and phenol content of BJD were superior to that of BJJ.
