Consumers are increasingly aware of the importance diet in human health and they preferably choose functional food products. The present work is focused on describing current status international regulatory framework for health-related claims products state art regarding these market focusing those with claims. Specific regulation must control use labeling Although European, American Japanese partly similar nature, but approval procedures different. generally accept claims, most them include...
Wild edible fruits, neglected by the development of commercial agriculture, have recently aroused as a good source natural colorants and bioactive compounds. These novel uses could cover recent demand for healthier foods with functional properties. Prunus avium, Fragaria vesca Vaccinium myrtillus wild fruits were characterized individual anthocyanin profile color CIELAB parameters, well phenolic fraction. In addition, some bioactivities evaluated. P. avium cyanidin-O-deoxyhexosyl-pentoside...
In this study, a novel natural food colorant based on anthocyanins was developed from wild barberry (Berberis vulgaris L.) fruits using ultrasound-assisted extraction, which optimized through RSM. Four extraction variables (ultrasound power, time, S/L ratio, and solvent pH) were evaluated in combination. The response criteria used the total anthocyanin content (TAC) color parameters. optimal TAC achieved at 2.5 min, 345 W, pH 3, 22.12 g/L. fruit sample (without seeds) (BVFF) its extract...
Abstract The edible fruits of four wild small trees or shrubs ( Arbutus unedo , Crataegus monogyna Prunus spinosa and Rubus ulmifolius ) traditionally consumed in the Iberian Peninsula were studied to evaluate their potential for human nutrition, considering content bioactive compounds. Lipophilic phytochemicals, such as fatty acids tocopherols, well some hydrophilic antioxidants, vitamin C organic acids, analyzed. In addition, antioxidant activity, measured lipid peroxidation inhibition...
Introduction . Many underutilized wild fruits have great nutritional and functional potential, providing chemical compounds with biological properties. Materials methods In the present work we quantified bioactive such as vitamin C (ascorbic dehydroascorbic acids), total phenolic composed mainly of acids, flavonols anthocyanins, well evaluating antioxidant capacity through different in vitro tests (Folin-Ciocalteu, ABTS·+, DPPH· FRAP) blackthorn (P. spinosa L.) hawthorn (C. monogyna Jacq.)...
Studies are scarce on the nutritional and phytochemical composition of wild edible Mediterranean plants after culinary processing. This work provides treatment (including dietary fiber mineral composition) bioactive compounds (folates, vitamin C organic acids) Rumex pulcher L., Silene vulgaris (Moench) Garcke. leaves, Asparagus acutifolius Bryonia dioica Jacq., Humulus lupulus Tamus communis L. young shoots. Shoots better preserved their nutrients than due to different tissue structure....
