This study aims to determine antioxidant activity and total phenolic content of mangosteen leaves in several different solvents. The antioxidant activity test of the extract was determined by the DPPH method and the total phenolic content was determined by the Folin-Ciocalteu method. The phytochemical test of mangosteen leaves showed the presence of phenolic compounds, saponins, triterpenoids and alkaloids. The extraction results increase with increasing water content in methanol, ethanol and acetone. The highest amount of extract was obtained using 50% acetone solvent (34.98 ± 0.17%). Extraction using 100% ethanol showed the highest total phenolic content (614.25 ± 5.58 mg GAE / g extract) and the lowest IC50 value (5.81 mg / L). The results of this study indicate that the use of 50% acetone solvent can optimize the amount of extract and 100% ethanol can optimize the content of total phenolic compounds and antioxidant activity of mangosteen leaves.

Bangia atropurpurea is a freshwater red filamentous alga. In this study, we report on the recovery yield of purified phycobiliproteins, total phenolic content (TPC) and their antioxidant capacity. B. atropurpurea suspended in phosphate buffer (pH 7.2), saturated with ammonium sulphate and further isolated R-phycoerythrin and phycocyanin from phycobilisome structure by gel filtration with Sephadex G-200. Phenolic compounds extracted by variable polarity solvents to exhibit optimum yield. Folin–Ciocalteu method was used to determine the TPC, while 1, 1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) radical scavenging and ferric-reducing antioxidant power (FRAP) assays were used to quantitate the antioxidant activity of phycobiliproteins and phenolic compounds.  B. atropurpurea predominantly contains R-phycoerythrin 54.80 % of the total protein extracted at purity ratio A562 to A280 of 4.45 while, phycocyanin displayed 16 % recovery yield at purity ratio A615 to A280 of 2.18. The purified R-phycoerythrin exhibited better antioxidant activity than phycocyanin extract and BHT synthetic antioxidant by exhibiting (IC50%=7.66 ±0.81µg/mL) and 54.74 ± 0.11 mg GAE/1g extract for, DPPH scavenging and FRAP assay, respectively. The sodium dodecyl sulfate polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (SDS-PAGE) of purified R-phycoerythrin and phycocyanin proteins have showed apparent single band at molecular weight of 19.6 kDa and 17.5 kDa, respectively. The methanol-soluble extract displayed the utmost TPC, 80.97±0.53 mg GAE/1g extract compared to phenolic content in other organic solvents used for extraction. In accordance with TPC, methanol-soluble extract exhibited as the most effective DPPH radical scavenging and ferric reduction, (IC50%=14.63±0.79 µg/mL) and 37.79±0.27 mg GAE/1g extract, respectively. The presence of R-phycoerythrin, phycocyanin and phenolic compounds in an array, amplifies the antioxidant property of B. atropurpurea.

Banana inflorescence is consumed as a traditional Thai cuisine for milk lactation in maternal breastfeeding. In this study, the inflorescence of banana (Musa x paradisiaca) was extracted in various solvents to determine the bioactive compounds and antioxidant activity in 2,2′-azino-bis 3-ethylbenzthiazoline-6-sulfonic acid (ABTS) radical scavenging. A suitable extract was developed into a beverage. We compared the results for the amount of total phenolic compounds and the capability of antioxidants obtained in polar and non-polar solvents. The extract in a high-polarity solvent demonstrated high total phenolic compounds and flavonoids. The bioactive compounds of banana inflorescence contained β- sitosterol, flavonoids, saponin, and other phenolic compounds such as catechin and isoquercetin. The aqueous extract of banana inflorescence was developed to act as a primary beverage ingredient. The beverage containing the aqueous extract of banana inflorescence (BAB) exhibited a brownish-yellow color and displayed high acidity and high total phenolic compounds, which are responsible for the antioxidant activity. The food processing of BAB showed no contamination of microbial pathogens. From our results, we concluded that banana inflorescence is a beneficial health food supplement for general consumers. Additionally, the beverage provides convenience and an alternative drink for postpartum mothers who breastfeed for their infants.

Abstract Varietal and sun-drying effects on phenolic compounds and their antioxidant activity were investigated during the in vitro gastrointestinal digestion of fresh and dried figs. The total phenolic compounds (phenolic, flavonoids, and proanthocyanidin) and their antioxidant activity (ferric reducing power; free radical scavenging activity DPPH, and phosphomolybdenum test) were evaluated before and after digestion. The total phenolic compounds and the antioxidant capacities of fresh and dried figs obtained before digestion were significantly (p < 0.05) higher than those obtained after digestion. A significant decrease (p < 0.05) of phenolic compounds and their antioxidant activity was observed during different digestion phases (oral phase > gastric phase > intestinal phase). A positive correlation was found between the total phenolic compounds and the antioxidant activity tested for both fresh and dried figs. Furthermore, the results showed that the digestion has no effect on the total phenolic compounds; however, a negative influence of the pH and the enzymes was observed on these compounds and their antioxidant activity. During in vitro gastrointestinal digestion, the varietal and the sun-drying has no significant effect on the phenolic compounds and their antioxidant activity. Likewise, the fresh or dry variety kept a high content before and after the digestion.

The study examines the phenolic compounds in hydromethanolic extracts of Salix alba (L.) leaves and bark as well as their antioxidant activity and cytotoxic potential. UPLC-PDA-Q/TOF-MS analysis showed a total of 29 phenolic compounds in leaves and 34 in bark. Total phenolic compound content was 5575.96 mg/100 g of dry weight (DW) in leaves and 2330.31 mg/100 g DW in bark. The compounds were identified as derivatives of phenolic acids (seven in leaves and five in bark), flavanols and procyanidins (eight in leaves and 26 in bark) and flavonols (14 in leaves and three in bark). Both extracts exhibited strong antioxidant potential, assessed by radical scavenging activity against 1,1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) and 2,2′-azinobis (3-ethylbenzothiazoline-6-sulfonic acid (ABTS), but the bark extract was even stronger than the ascorbic acid used as a standard. The cytotoxicity of both extracts was evaluated against human skin fibroblasts and human epidermal keratinocytes cell lines using the Presto Blue cell viability assay. The keratinocytes were more resistant to tested extracts than fibroblasts. The leaf and bark extracts at concentrations which exhibited antioxidant activity were also not toxic against the keratinocyte cell line. Thus, S. alba extracts, especially the leaf extract, offer promise as a nontoxic natural antioxidant, in cosmetic products or herbal medicines, and as a source of bioactive secondary metabolites.

The pineapple is praised for its aroma, flavor, and nutritional value. Researches of food composition and bioactive substances gained more space in the academic environment due to a more current severe concern of maintaining a healthier lifestyle. The objective of this paper was to quantify the presence of total phenolic compounds and to evaluate the antioxidant activity in vitro in the peel and pulp of two pineapples varieties: the Abacaxi Pérola and Abacaxi Havaiano (Ananas comosus), cultivated and commercialized at the region of the Triângulo Mineiro and Southern of Goiás. This region was chosen due to its geographic proximity to the city of Itumbiara, and for being a region with an outstanding production of the subject two varieties. The content of total phenolic compounds was evaluated using the Folin-Ciocauteau method and the antioxidant activity was assessed using the free radical scavenging method (DPPH • - 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrilhidrazil). The tests showed values of 72.53 to 143.90 mg GAE / 100g for each sample, for the aqueous extract and from 62.04 to 165.47 mg GAE / 100g of sample, the highest values being found for the bark extracts. For the test carried out with DPPH, to check the antioxidant activity of aqueous and hydroethanolic extracts, significant consumption of the DPPH reagent was not observed. The reading was performed for 1 hour without the measured value undergoing substantial changes. Therefore further studies need to be carried out to elucidate the antioxidant activity in pineapples.
