Polyphenols represent a group of chemical substances common in plants, structurally characterized by the presence one or more phenol units. are most abundant antioxidants human diets and largest best studied class polyphenols is flavonoids, which include several thousand compounds. Numerous studies confirm that they exert protective action on health key components healthy balanced diet. Epidemiological correlate flavonoid intake with reduced incidence chronic diseases, such as cardiovascular...

Silicon has beneficial effects on many crops, mainly under biotic and abiotic stresses. can affect biochemical, physiological, photosynthetic processes and, consequently, alleviates drought stress. However, the of Si potato ( Solanum tuberosum L.) plants stress are still unknown. The objective this study was to evaluate effect supply some biochemical characteristics yield tubers, either exposed or not experiment conducted in pots containing 50 dm 3 a Typic Acrortox soil (33% clay, 4% silt,...

The present review reports on the main characteristics and properties of plants cultivated following organic conventional procedures, in attempt to clarify give a deeper insight into some possible differences compare two cultivation procedures. Here, we summarise research results regarding nutritional safety vegetable foods, evidencing qualitative observed between methods. It appears that intake foods leads advantages, such as ingestion higher content phenolic compounds vitamins, vitamin C,...

This study evaluated the efficacy and optimal concentrations of Kappaphycus alvarezii biostimulant from São Paulo (Kal-SP) Santa Catarina (Kal-SC) for hydroponic cultivation basil (Ocimum basilicum). Basil plants were grown with 1%, 3%, 5%, 7% each extract using distilled water as a control. The extracts applied via weekly foliar sprays. Morphological biochemical parameters, in addition to biogenic amine profile, evaluated. Morphologically, 3% Kal-SP increased plant height by 17.1% length...

Curcumin possesses wide-ranging anti-inflammatory and anti-cancer properties its biological activity can be linked to potent antioxidant capacity. Superparamagnetic maghemite (γ-Fe2 O3 ), called surface-active nanoparticles (SAMNs) were surface-modified with curcumin molecules, due the presence of under-coordinated Fe(III) atoms on nanoparticle surface. The so-obtained curcumin-modified SAMNs (SAMN@curcumin) had a mean size 13±4 nm. SAMN@curcumin was characterized by transmission scanning...

Summary The aim of this work was to analyse some nutritional characteristics in eatable vegetables obtained by conventional and organic grown culture, focusing on vegetable parts that are generally rejected consumers. Samples Chinese cabbage ( Brassica rapa (syn. B. campestris ) spp. pekinensis )) maize Zea mays L.) had been analysed under raw conditions after thermal treatment order test modifications protein, lipids, carbohydrate, phenol, nitrate content dry weight. According our results,...
