ABSTRACT Introduction Olea europaea L. leaves may be considered a cheap, easily available natural source of phenolic compounds. In previous study we evaluated the possibility obtaining bioactive compounds from olive by pressurised liquid extraction (PLE) for their use as anti‐oxidants. The alimentary these kinds extract makes comprehensive knowledge composition essential. Objective To undertake characterisation two olive‐leaf extracts obtained PLE using high‐performance chromatography...
Aging can be viewed as a quasi-programmed phenomenon driven by the overactivation of nutrient-sensing mTOR gerogene. mTOR-driven aging triggered or accelerated decline loss responsiveness to activation energy-sensing protein AMPK, critical gerosuppressor mTOR. The occurrence age-related diseases, therefore, reflects synergistic interaction between our evolutionary path sedentarism, which chronically increases number activating gero-promoters (e.g., food, growth factors, cytokines and...
Phenolic compounds, which are secondary plant metabolites, considered an integral part of the human diet. Physiological properties dietary polyphenols have come to attention in recent years. Especially, proanthocyanidins (ranging from dimers decamers) demonstrated potential interactions with biological systems, such as antiviral, antibacterial, molluscicidal, enzyme-inhibiting, antioxidant, and radical-scavenging properties. Agroindustry produces a considerable amount phenolic-rich sources,...
The olive oil industry produces large volumes of wastes, which are also potential sources bioactive compounds by developing healthy and/or functional foods. Extraction phenolic from the residues is mainly carried out with solvents. However, there currently a growing public awareness about use organic solvents in food processing, has pointed need for application clean technologies such as pressurized liquid extraction (PLE). Therefore, aim this research was to optimize compound pomace PLE,...
Pressurized liquid extraction (PLE) is a clean and environmentally friendly alternative for the recovery of bioactive compounds from fruit by-products. Herein we focused on PLE pomegranate peel using combination pressurized water ethanol. The main aim was to determine optimal conditions, i.e., ethanol percentage process temperature, obtain extract (PPE) with maximum total phenolic content (TPC), punicalagin content, antimicrobial activity (AMA). experimental design conducted central...
Lyophilized plant-origin extracts are rich in highly potent antioxidant polyphenols. In order to incorporate them into food products, it is necessary protect these phytochemicals from atmospheric factors such as heat, light, moisture, or pH, and enhance their bioavailability due low solubility. To address challenges, recent studies have focused on the development of encapsulation techniques for compounds within polymeric structures. this study, lyophilized olive leaf were microencapsulated...
The aim of this work was to develop a rapid resolution liquid chromatography coupled electrospray ionization time-of-flight mass spectrometry (RRLC-ESI-TOF-MS) method followed by tetrazolium salt (MTT)-based cell viability assays for qualitative and quantitative classification extra virgin olive oil (EVOO) varieties phenolic other polar compound contents as well characterization putative cytotoxic activities against human cancer cells. Five different Spanish EVOO were analyzed,...
