A comprehensive characterization of the phytochemicals present in a blackberry fruit extract by HPLC-TOF-MS has been carried out. The main compounds were ursane-type terpenoids which, along with phenolic compounds, may be responsible for bioactivity extract. In vitro antioxidant capacity was assessed through Folin-Ciocalteu (31.05 ± 4.9 mg GAE/g d.w.), FRAP (637.8 3.2 μmol Fe2+/g DPPH (IC50 97.1 2.4 μg d.w./mL) and TEAC (576.6 8.3 TE/g d.w.) assays. Furthermore, exerted remarkable effects on...
Propyl-propane thiosulfinate (PTS) and propyl-propane thiosulfonate (PTSO) are two volatile compounds derived from Allium cepa with a widely documented antimicrobial activity. The aim of this study was to evaluate their anti-candidiasis activity the ability its gaseous phase inhibit bacterial yeast growth in vitro. minimum inhibitory concentration various antifungal products (including PTS PTSO) determined versus 203 clinical isolates Candida spp. through broth microdilution assay....
The optimization of bioactive compound extraction from Fucus vesiculosus using ultrasound-assisted (UAE) via sonotrode was investigated to maximize phenolic recovery and antioxidant activity while promoting a sustainable process. Optimal conditions (40% v/v ethanol in water, 38 min, 36% amplitude) were selected considering environmental energy sustainability by optimizing efficiency minimizing solvent usage. HPLC-ESI-QTOF-MS analysis tentatively identified 25 compounds, including sulfated...
The revalorization of artichoke (Cynara scolymus L.) by-products is a promising strategy to obtain bioactive compounds with antioxidant properties, supporting circular economy approach. This study compares the efficiency an enzymatic pretreatment followed by microwave-assisted extraction (EMAE), ultrasound-assisted (EUAE), and ultrasound-microwave-assisted (EUMAE) at pilot scale for recovering compounds. Extracts were purified using Diaion® HP20 resin phenolic-rich fractions enhanced...
Vaccinium myrtillus L. (bilberry) leaves are an important by-product of berry production that may be used as a source phenolic compounds which have positive effect on human health. Therefore, ultrasound-assisted extraction via sonotrode has been for the first time to recover bioactive from bilberry leaves. The optimized using Box-Behnken design. influence ethanol:water ratio (v/v), (min) and amplitude (%) were evaluated considering total content (TPC) antioxidant capacity (DPPH FRAP assays)...
Abstract Background Over the past decade, great impact of agricultural crop diseases has generated considerable economic losses and compromised production edible crops at a time when world population is only expected to rise, leading search for new pest management strategies. Besides that, environmental resulting from continued use chemical pesticides led natural sustainable alternatives. One existing solutions that currently stands out its effectiveness bioactive plant extracts. This study...
Onion extract is used as a feed supplement for the diet of dairy cows, acting inhibitor methane production; however, its properties could alter sensory attributes milk. In this work, we propose method to evaluate influence on milk properties, using propyl propane thiosulfonate (PTSO) marker. PTSO extracted quick, easy, cheap, effective, rugged, and safe procedure monitored by high-performance liquid chromatography with ultraviolet detection. The was applied samples obtained from 100 cows fed...
Allium species and their organosulfur-derived compounds could prevent obesity metabolic dysfunction, as they exhibit immunomodulatory antimicrobial properties. Here, we report the anti-obesogenic potential dose-dependent effects (0.1 or 1 mg/kg/day) of propyl propane thiosulfinate (PTS) in a murine model diet-induced obesity. The obesogenic diet increased body weight gain adipocyte size, boosted inflammatory marker (Cd11c) expression adipose tissue. Conversely, PTS prevented these manner....
The consumption of raw or smoked fish entails significant microbiological risks, including contamination by pathogens such as Listeria monocytogenes, which can cause severe foodborne illnesses. This study explores the preservative use piscicolin CM22, a novel bacteriocin derived from psychrotolerant strain Carnobacterium maltaromaticum in two types edible coatings (EC): chitosan-based and gelatin-based. An initial vitro characterization technological antimicrobial properties these ECs with...
