Beet is a traditional root consumed worldwide and is considered a potential source of several bioactive compounds, yet during production and commercialisation activities, its leaves and stalks are discarded. The beet residue has notable quantities of diverse phenolic compounds that are not taken advantage of it. The beet stalks (sample) were obtained from a local producer at the municipality of Marechal Cândido Rondon, Paraná state, Brazil. The optimisation of the extraction process of antioxidant capacity compounds from beet stalk was done by response surface methodology (RSM), with three independent variables (time, from 5 to 85 min; temperature, from 20 to 80 °C and solvent, from 0 to 100% of ethanol/water ratio). Extracts were evaluated for their reducing capacity, measured by the Folin–Ciocalteu method, and antioxidant capacity by the ability to scavenge DPPH and ABTS free radicals. The optimal global extraction conditions determined were 5 min, 80 °C and 50% ethanol, yielding 13.157 mg gallic acid equivalents (GAE) g–1, 21.539 mol Trolox equivalents g-1 (TE; DPPH) and 250.190 ?mol TE g–1 (ABTS). Beet stalk demonstrated to be an alternative and rich source of recovering of natural antioxidant compounds, showing higher contents when compared to other agro-industrial residues.

Circular economy principles are based on the use of by-products from one operation as the raw materials in another. The aim of this work is to obtain extracts with high antioxidant capacity and resveratrol content for the superior capitalization of the biomass of Feteasca regala leaves obtained during vineyard horticultural operations in spring. In order to obtain a high-quality extract at an industrial level, an optimal extraction process is needed. Central composite design (CCD) was used for the experiment design, which contained three independent variables: the ratio of extraction solvent to solid matter, temperature (°C) and time (minutes). The evaluation of extracts was done by measuring the total antioxidant capacity of the extracts using photo-chemiluminescent techniques, and the resveratrol content using liquid chromatography. Process optimization was done using response surface methodology (RSM). Minitab software version 17.0 was used for the design of experiments and data analysis. Regression analysis showed that the model predicts 87.5% of the variation for resveratrol and 96% for total antioxidant capacity (TAC). The temperature had the biggest influence on the extraction yield. The optimal operational conditions for the extraction method applied had the following conditions: ratio e/m 2.92; 43.23 °C and 55.4 min. A maximum value of 34,623 µg ascorbic acid equivalent (AAE) /mL total antioxidant capacity and 182.4 µg/mL resveratrol content were obtained when the optimal extraction parameters where used. The values obtained in experiments proved that by using RSM an accurate model can be obtained for extraction of Feteasca regala leaves.

Introduction: Enzyme-assisted aqueous extraction is considered an emerging green technique that has been applied to different oilseeds. Objective: This study aimed to study the enzymatic aqueous extraction process of buriti oil using a central composite rotatable design (CCRD) combined with the response surface methodology aiming to obtain higher yield and antioxidant compounds in the oil. Methods: The study was carried out in two steps. The first assessed the efficiency of different enzymes (cellulase, pectinase, and protease) and the variables of greater influence in the extraction process, being conducted for each enzyme a CCRD design. The second step was carried out with the enzyme that showed the best performance on the extraction yield, changing the experimental bands of the variables that had greater significance in the first step, with the goal of broadening the spectrum of study. Were also evaluated in this step, total carotenoids, total phenolic compounds, and the antioxidant capacity of the oils extracted. Results: In the first experiment, cellulase gave the highest yield, while the most significant variables were temperature and time. For the second design, performed with cellulase, were defined as optimal operating conditions at 55 °C temperature, 2% enzyme concentration and 6 hours extraction. For these conditions, the yield obtained was 76.5%, with total carotenoid concentration of 3,119.5 µg β-carotene.g-1. Analysis of variance was performed and showed the significance of the regression and non-significance of the lack-of-fit (p<0.05). The coefficients of determination of the yield and carotenoid content were 95.6% and 94.5%, respectively. The highest value of total phenolic compounds determined for buriti oil in this study was 254 ± 5 µg GAE.g-1 oil, while for the antioxidant capacity was 218.0 ± 0.3 µmol Trolox.g-1 oil. Conclusion: The enzymatic aqueous extraction process is viable for buriti oil and produced oils with high concentrations of antioxidant compounds.

Wilis pada 100 ppm memiliki radical scavenging activity sebesar 9,69% dengan scavenging ternormalisasi 0,65% dengan total fenol 2,1 mg GAE/g pada biji dan 2,9 mg GAE/g pada kecambah. Dari hasil identifikasi GC-MS ditemukan senyawa-senyawa antioksidan yang terdapat pada biji kedelai dan kecambah kedelai berupa benzoic acid, 2-methoxy-4-vinylphenol, 2,5-dihydroxytoluene, pyrogallol 1,3-dimethyl ether, 2,5-dihydroxytoluene, pyrogallol 1,3-dimethyl ether, hexadecanoic acid methyl ester dan methyl oleate serta terdapat juga senyawa-senyawa antioksidan baru yang muncul setelah proses perkecambahan yaitu neophytadiene, campesterol, stigmasterol, delta-tocopherol dan gamma-tocopherol.  ABSTRACT: Soybean is a high nutrition food product that is largely consumed by Indonesians. In this research, the soybean will be modified by going through the germination process. Complex nutrition would be changed into substances that were more simple during the germination process. Therefore, it would be easier for human to digest it. Moreover, this process might also increase the antioxidant capacity of the soybean itself. The aim of this research is to find out the most suitable germination condition in order to acquire the optimum antioxidant capacity of Wilis variety soybean. The result shows that the best condition to optimize the antioxidant capacity is by performing the germination process at 25°C for 15 hours with soybean to water ratio being 1:3 without any salt addition. The antioxidant capacity of Wilis soybean at 100 ppm has 9,69% of radical scavenging activity, with 0,65% being normalized. The total phenolic compound found in the beans was 2,1 mg GAE/g, whereas 2,9 mg GAE/g were found in the sprout. Based on the GC-MS identification, the antioxidant compounds that are found in both the soybean and sprout are known to be benzoic acid, 2-methoxy-4-vinylphenol, 2,5-dihydroxytoluene, pyrogallol 1,3-dimethyl ether, 2,5-dihydroxytoluene, pyrogallol 1,3-dimethyl ether, hexadecanoic acid methyl ester, and methyl oleate. In addition, there are also several new antioxidant compounds that emerge after the germination process, which are neophytadiene, campesterol, stigmasterol, delta-tocopherol, and gamma-tocopherol.

El frijol tiene alto contenido fenólico y actividad antioxidante, por ello es importante conocer cuánto se libera de estos compuestos de la matriz alimentaria y es aprovechado en el organismo. Por lo tanto, el objetivo de este trabajo fue determinar la bioaccesibilidad de compuestos antioxidantes de diferentes variedades de frijol (Phaseolus vulgaris L.) mediante un sistema gastrointestinal in vitro. Se realizó la cuantificación de compuestos fenólicos, flavonoides y capacidad antioxidante (DPPH, ABTS y FRAP) de 6 cultivares: Negro, Flor de Mayo, Patol, Pinto Saltillo, Teapa y Peruano, antes y después del cocimiento. Adicionalmente, se evaluó la digestión gastrointetinal in vitro en frijol cocido. Los resultados obtenidos de las variedades de frijol Teapa y Peruano, presentaron mayor rendimiento de extracto crudo, y un incremento del contenido fenólico. El frijol cocido, mostró un incremento en el contenido de flavonoides en las variedades Teapa, Peruano y Pinto Saltillo, así como mayor capacidad antioxidante, en las variedades Negro, Flor de mayo, Teapa y Peruano. La concentración inhibitoria media (IC50) la alcanzaron Teapa, Pinto Saltillo y Flor de Mayo (106.45, 154.72 y 127.16 μg/mL respectivamente). La digestión gastrointestinal in vitro dio como resultado mayor bioaccesibilidad para compuestos fenólicos, resaltando las variedades Teapa, Pinto Saltillo y Flor de mayo.ABSTRACTBeans have high phenolic content and antioxidant activity, so it is important to know how much of these compounds is released from the food matrix and is used in the body. Therefore, the objective of this work was to determine the antioxidant compounds bioavailability on different bean varieties (Phaseolus vulgaris L.) through an in vitro gastrointestinal system. Quantification of phenolic compounds, flavonoids and antioxidant capacity (DPPH, ABTS and FRAP) of 6 cultivars (Black, Flor de Mayo, Patol, Pinto Saltillo, Teapa and Peruvian) was carried out, before and after cooking. Additionally, in vitro gastrointetinal digestion in cooked beans was evaluated. The results obtained from the Teapa and Peruvian bean varieties showed a higher yield of crude extract and an increase in phenolic content. Cooked beans showed an increase in flavonoid content in the Teapa, Peruvian and Pinto Saltillo varieties, as well as greater antioxidant capacity, in the Negro, Flor de Mayo, Teapa and Peruvian varieties. The mean inhibitory concentration (IC50) was reached by Teapa, Pinto Saltillo and Flor de Mayo (106.45, 154.72 and 127.16 μg/mL respectively). The gastrointestinal digestion in vitro resulted in greater bioavailability for phenolic compounds, highlighting the Teapa, Pinto Saltillo and Flor de Mayo varieties.

Background: Scaevola spinescens is an endemic Australian shrub that is linked to various health benefits and traditionally used as medicine by decoction. To date, the extraction efficiency of the plant under various conditions has not been well understood. This study aimed to optimize aqueous extraction conditions of S. spinescens, for maximum extraction of total phenolic compounds, flavonoids and saponins, as well as antioxidant activities. Methods: Response surface methodology was used to determine the influence of four independent parameters including temperature, time, sample-to-water ratio and pH. The optimal ranges of temperature (60-90 °C), time (30-60 min), sample-to-water ratio (2-6 g/100 mL) and pH (3-7) were determined in preliminary experiments. Following assessment and optimization of the response surface methodology models, validation experiments were conducted to compare predicted and experimental values. Results : The RSM models showed that extraction temperature, time and sample-to-water ratio significantly affected total phenolic compound yields. Extraction temperature and time significantly affected flavonoid yields, while only sample-to-water ratio significantly affected saponin yields. Optimal conditions for extraction were determined to be: 90 ºC, 53 min, 2:100 (g/mL), and pH of 4.5, if saponins are the target compounds for extraction. For phenolics, flavonoids and antioxidant capacity, a higher sample-to-water ratio of 6:100 (g/mL) is recommended. Conclusion: Response surface methodology proved to be a reliable method for predicting yields of bioactive compounds and antioxidant capacity in S. spinescens. These findings can be used for efficient decoction by practitioners and end users, or by researchers for further isolation and purification of bioactive compounds from S. spinescens extracts.

Life Saving

Alpines are the exceptional regions of the world’s biomes. They have unique climatic and topographic conditions; they are the habitat of some of the highly specialized flora and fauna. The harsh environmental conditions and extreme fluctuations in them on a seasonal and diurnal basis created extremely stressful situations for the alpine plants. Such stress causes damage to biochemical structures and compounds of the plant cells leads to the production of free radicals, i.e. reactive oxygen species (ROS), which can further damage the plant cells or tissues. Alpine plants protect themselves from those ROS efficiently by their highly competent enzymatic and non-enzymatic antioxidant system. In general, this protection increases in alpine plants with altitudes; however, some exceptions are also reported. Antioxidant compounds viz. ascorbic acid, tocopherol, glutathione, carotenoids found in alpine flora in higher concentrations as compared to low land plants. Phenolic compounds protected the alpine plants from UV induced ROS by screening the UV radiations and blocking their entries in the cell’s mesophyll. This higher antioxidant potential of the alpine plants is highly beneficial for the human being as most alpine plants are the sources of some life-saving drugs.

The aim of this work was to optimize the recovery of phenolic compounds from Lippia citriodora using supercritical fluid extraction (SFE). To achieve this goal, response surface methodology based on a 23 central composite design was used to evaluate the effects of the following experimental factors: temperature, pressure and co-solvent percentage. The effects of these variables on the extraction yield and total polar compound contents were evaluated. With respect to the phytochemical composition, an exhaustive individual phenolic compound quantitation was carried out by HPLC-ESI-TOF-MS to analyze the functional ingredients produced by this system design. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first time that a standardized supercritical fluid process has been developed to obtain functional ingredients based on phenolic compounds from L. citriodora in which the individual compound concentration was monitored over the different SFE conditions. The results enabled the establishment of the optimal technical parameters for developing functional ingredients and revealed the main factors that should be included in the extraction process control. This functional food ingredient design could be used as a control system to be applied in nutraceutical and functional food production industry.

Guayule (Parthenium argentatum) is one of the most promising alternatives to produce natural rubber. As the guayule leaves represent a waste byproduct in the rubber extraction process, their exploitation might contribute to the valorization of the whole plant biomass. The specific aim of our study was to determine the antioxidant capacity and the content of phenolic compounds in leaves and twigs of different guayule lines cultivated in a Mediterranean environment. The antioxidant capacity and the contents of phenolic were affected significantly by guayule accession and harvest time. Overall means in twigs represented about 60% of the corresponding leaf values for antioxidant capacity as DPPH (1,1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl) and not tannic phenolic and about 55% as ABTS (2,2′-azinobis (3-ethylbenzothiazoline-6-sulphonic acid) diammonium salt), total phenolic, tannic phenolic and total flavonoid contents. Five individual phenolic compounds were identified in methanolic extracts of leaves. Neochlorogenic acid (62.5–174.8 mg g−1 DW) and chlorogenic acid (28.6–41.1 mg g−1 DW) were the most abundant phenolic acids. In addition to the compounds quantified in leaves, cynarin was identified only in twigs and for the first time in guayule biomass. Our results indicate that guayule leaves and twigs represent a rich source of antioxidants for potential applications in fodder, nutraceutical and pharmacological sectors.
