Non‐Destructive Analysis of Phenolic and Flavonoid Contents in Medicinal Plant Powders Using Hyperspectral Imaging and Variable Selection

Analytical Science Advances, Volume 7, Issue 2, December 2026.
ABSTRACT Phenolic and flavonoid contents in medicinal plants are essential to their growth and development and provide numerous health benefits, yet their quantification using traditional wet chemistry is labor‐intensive and time‐consuming. This study utilized the combination of two benchtop hyperspectral imaging (HSI) systems, namely short‐wave ...

ERYTHROCYTE SODIUM/HYDROGEN EXCHANGE INHIBITION BY (-) EPICATECHIN

, 2001
Epicatechin, a flavonoid belonging to the group of compounds collectively called catechins, have been reported to possess insulin-like properties. Besides their anti-diabetic properties, catechins also show growth inhibition.

Epicatechin and its in vivo metabolite, 3 '-O-methyl epicatechin, protect human fibroblasts from oxidative-stress-induced cell death involving caspase-3 activation

, 2001
There is considerable current interest in the cytoprotective effects of natural antioxidants against oxidative stress. In particular, epicatechin, a major member of the flavanol family of polyphenols with powerful antioxidant properties in vitro, has ...

Assessment of Phytochemical Compounds and Antioxidant Potential of West Indian Avocado (Persea americana) Peel From Substandard‐Quality Fruits as a Valorisation Strategy

Phytochemicals in Food and Medicine, Volume 1, Issue 4, December 2026.
West Indian avocado peels discarded because of low‐commercial‐quality were evaluated as a source of bioactive compounds. Avocado peels contained high levels of phenolic compounds and showed strong antioxidant capacity. These results support avocado peel valorisation within functional foods, circular and sustainable food systems.

From Food Waste to Phytochemicals: Green Recovery, Food‐Matrix Applications, and Metabolic‐Health Translation of Residue‐Derived Polyphenols

Phytochemicals in Food and Medicine, Volume 1, Issue 4, December 2026.
Decision rule: The lowest‐scoring gate determines overall readiness. Suggested concise take‐home message: Residue‐derived polyphenols should advance from chemically defined sources through food‐grade recovery and real‐matrix validation to realistic exposure‐based health evidence.

Genetic control underlying dynamics of blueberry bioactive compounds during postharvest can drive breeding for functional fruits

The Plant Genome, Volume 19, Issue 4, December 2026.
Abstract Blueberries (Vaccinium spp.) are widely recognized as a superfruit due to their high content health‐promoting bioactive compounds, including flavonoids and phenolic acids. While these metabolites provide significant health benefits, their postharvest stability and implications for shelf life are not well characterized, a fact that is essential

Beneficial Role of Natural Polyphenols Against Epilepsy: Greasing the Wheels of Pharmacotherapy Research for Epilepsy

Food Frontiers, Volume 7, Issue 6, November 2026.
ABSTRACT Epilepsy is the most disabling neurological disease that affects all economic classes, age groups, regions, and races. Although many antiseizure drugs are approved for epilepsy treatment, they fail to work in about 30%–40% of patients. Thus, there is a great need to identify better pharmacological agents to treat epilepsy.

Design Considerations for Polymer–Deep Eutectic Solvent Hybrid Systems for Transdermal Drug Delivery

Journal of Applied Polymer Science, Volume 143, Issue 40, October 20, 2026.
Deep eutectic solvents (DESs) act as tunable, green excipients that modulate polymer structure–property relationships to enhance drug solubility, skin permeation, stability, and controlled release. Through hydrogen‐bond interactions, DES–polymer hybrid systems enable improved transdermal performance, offering a rational, design‐driven platform for ...
