New insights into the properties of pubescent surfaces: peach fruit as model [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
The surface of peach (Prunus persica ‘Calrico’) is covered by a dense indumentum, which may serve various protective purposes. With the aim of relating structure to function, the chemical composition, morphology, and hydrophobicity of the peach skin was ...

An Experimental and Educational Framework for Nonenzymatic Polyphenol Conversion: Bridging Molecular Food Science and Materials Technology through Organic Chemistry

open access: yesChemFoodChem, EarlyView.
Gallic acid serves as an ideal bridge between fundamental sciences and gastronomy, as its presence as a plant polyphenol moiety. Its symmetrical, multifunctional phenolic structure makes it a perfect educational building block for linking organic chemistry both to food science and material design.

The phenolic complex in flaxseed [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
Flaxseed is the richest plant source of the lignan secoisolariciresinol diglucoside (SDG). In flaxseed, SDG exists in an oligomeric structure with 3-hydroxy-3-methyl glutaric acid (HMGA) forming a phenolic complex together with p-coumaric acid and ...

Bioinspired Design and Synthesis of Polyphenolic Star‐Like and Hyperbranched Polyester Models

open access: yesChemistry – A European Journal, EarlyView.
Gallotannin‐inspired star‐like and hyperbranched aromatic polyesters were synthesized from D‐glucose and ABn‐type phenolic acid monomers, such as protocatechuic acid. This bioinspired approach afforded polyphenolic polymeric nanoparticles able to encapsulate hydrophobic dyes, opening new perspectives for biobased encapsulation and delivery systems ...

p-Coumaric acid ameliorates ethanol–induced kidney injury by inhibiting inflammatory cytokine production and NF–κB signaling in rats

open access: yesAsian Pacific Journal of Tropical Biomedicine, 2019
Objective: To examine the effects of p-coumaric acid on ethanol-induced kidney injury in Swiss Wistar rats. Methods: Ethanol (25% v/v) was used to induce nephrotoxicity in rats. p-Coumaric acid was orally administered at 50, 100, or 200 mg/kg body weight.

Antioxidant Activity and Inhibition of Carbohydrate Hydrolyzing Enzymes by Underutilized Parts From Some Plant‐Based Foods and Their Effect on Postprandial Hyperglycemia

open access: yesFood Chemistry International, EarlyView.
The underutilized parts viz: pawpaw seed, banana, plantain, and potato peels showed promising antioxidant and inhibition of α‐amylase and α‐glucosidase activities (IC50 values ≤ 100 μg/mL). Similarly, pawpaw seed, banana, plantain, and potato peels reduced postprandial hyperglycemia in sucrose‐ and maltose‐induced hyperglycemia in rats.
