Orange peel is a by-product produced in large amounts that acts as source of natural pigments such carotenoids. Xanthophylls, the main carotenoid class found citrus fruit, can be present its free form or esterified with fatty acids, forming esters. This esterification modifies compound's chemical properties, affecting their bioavailability human body, and making it important to characterize native composition food matrices. We aimed evaluate non-saponified extracts orange (cv. Pera) obtained...
No scientific report proves the action of phytochemicals from mangrove tree Rhizophora mangle in treatment diabetes. The aim this work is to evaluate effects acetonic extract R. barks (AERM) on type 2 main chemical constituents were analyzed by high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) and flow injection analysis electrospray-iontrap mass spectrometry (FIA-ESI-IT-MS/MS). High-fat diet (HFD)-fed mice used as model diabetes associated with obesity. After 4 weeks AERM 5 or 50 mg/kg/day...
Currently, on an industrial scale, synthetic colorants are used in many fields, as well those extracted with conventional organic solvents (COSs), leading to several environmental issues. Therefore, we developed a sustainable extraction and purification method mediated by ionic liquids (IL), which is considered alternative high-performance replacement for COSs. Carotenoids natural pigments low bioaccessibility (BCT) bioavailability (BV) but huge importance health. To investigate if the BCT...
Considering that cooking techniques can improve the sensory attributes of many foods, they also change their chemical composition, directly influencing nutritional benefits. Pereskia aculeata (ora-pro-nobis) is a wild underexploited edible plant native to Brazilian Atlantic Forest. Their leaves are widely incorporated in traditional dishes, such as pasta and flours, sauces, salads. Thus, we studied effects different home (stir-frying, microwaving, steaming) on phytochemical namely phenolic...
Chemical characteristics of novel seed oils, yet not investigated, from three endemic Arecaceae (palm) species Reunion Island are described. Fatty acid profiles performed using two-dimensional gas chromatography-mass spectrometry. Carotenoid contents determined by high performance liquid The results the investigations emphasize particular composition unconventional red oil Hyophorbe indica. Characteristic features this reveal a degree unsaturation (50% polyunsaturated fatty acids, with...
Rhizophora mangle L. is a well-known medicinal plant found in mangroves worldwide used to treatment diabetes. This study evaluated the chemical composition of acetonic extract from barks (AERM), by HPLC-PDA and FIA-ESI-IT-MS/MS effects on high-fat diet induced obesity mice its mechanism action gene expression inflammatory markers (Pparg, Ppara, Srebf1, Cd36, Tnf, Ccl2, Lep, Il10, Il6, Fasn, 18s). High-fat fed during 12 weeks was as model associated alterations. The results were very...
