Chemistry Composition and Bioaccessibility Study of Phenolic Compounds and Carotenoids of New Brazilian Biofortified Sweet Potato “CIP BRS Nuti”

open access: yesFood Chemistry International, EarlyView.
Phenolic compounds of sweet potato CIP BRS Nuti were evaluated for the first time. Catechin, epicatechin, and procyanidin B1 exhibited high bioaccessibility. ABSTRACT Sweet potatoes biofortified in carotenoids have been an alternative to combat malnutrition in vulnerable populations. This work is the first comprehensive study of the bioactive potential

Xanthophyll cycle-related non-photochemical quenching protects Sargassum thunbergii from high light-induced photoinhibition

open access: yesFrontiers in Marine Science, 2022
As a common macroalga living in the intertidal zone, Sargassum thunbergii (Sargassaceae, Phaeophyta) is often exposed to drastic changes in solar photosynthetically active radiation during a diurnal cycle; thus, the potential photosynthetic adaptation ...

Silk oak flowers as a source of β-carotene [PDF]

open access: yes, 1941
The pigment of the yellow flowers of the silk oak (Grevillea robusta, Cunningham) does not appear to have been investigated heretofore. If the dried material is extracted with ether, the solution shows typical absorption maxima at 483 and 453 mµ ...

Protocol for the Preparation of Polyphenols‐Polysaccharide Nanoparticles

open access: yesFood Chemistry International, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Polyphenols, natural compounds abundantly distributed in plants, possess potent antioxidant and anti‐inflammatory activities and hold promising potential in cardiovascular protection and the management of metabolic disorders. Nevertheless, their intrinsic instability and low bioavailability severely constrain their practical and large‐scale ...

Constitutive changes in pigment concentrations: implications for estimating isoprene emissions using the photochemical reflectance index [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
The photochemical reflectance index (PRI), through its relationship with light use efficiency (LUE) and xanthophyll cycle activity, has recently been shown to hold potential for tracking isoprene emissions from vegetation.

Expression and functional analysis of citrus carotene hydroxylases: unravelling the xanthophyll biosynthesis in citrus fruits

open access: yesBMC Plant Biology, 2016
BackgroundXanthophylls are oxygenated carotenoids and fulfill critical roles in plant growth and development. In plants, two different types of carotene hydroxylases, non-heme di-iron and heme-containing cytochrome P450, were reported to be involved in ...

Bioactive Phytochemical Compounds in Medicago sativa L. (Alfalfa): A Systematic Review of Biological Properties and Therapeutic Relevance in Nutraceutical and Functional Food Implications

open access: yesFood Frontiers, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Medicago sativa L. (alfalfa) harbors a remarkably diverse reservoir of bioactive secondary metabolites. Flavonoids, isoflavones, and triterpenoid saponins dominate its bioactivity landscape, driving potent antioxidant, anti‐inflammatory, antimicrobial, estrogenic, hypolipidemic, and cytotoxic actions through redox modulation, membrane ...

Mechanism of Alfalfa in Enhancing Goose Egg Yolk Flavor: An Analysis Based on Metabolomics and Quantitative Lipidomics

open access: yesFood Frontiers, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Organic egg production requires daily provision of coarse feed, fresh or dried forage, and silage to poultry. This study employed flavoromics, metabolomics, and quantitative lipidomics to investigate the effects of replacing 0% (CK), 10% (T10), and 20% (T20) of the basal diet of laying geese with alfalfa (Medicago sativa L.) on the sensory ...
