Ocean life contains a wealth of bioactive peptides that could be utilized in nutraceuticals and pharmaceuticals. This study aimed to obtain neuroprotective antioxidant peptides in sea squirt (Halocynthia roretzi) through protamex enzymolysis. Fraction F4 (ultrafiltration generated four fractions) had a lower molecular weight (<500 Dalton (Da)) with greater 1,1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) and 2,2-azino-bis (3-ethylbenzothiazoline-6-sulphonic acid) diammonium salt (ABTS) radical scavenging activities (94.24 ± 2.50% and 91.80 ± 1.19%). After gel filtration, six peptides, including Phe-Gly-Phe (FGF), Leu-Gly-Phe (LGF), Leu-Phe-VAL (LFV), Val-Phe-Leu (VFL), Trp-Leu-Pro (WLP), and Ile-Ser-Trp (ISW), were identified and sequenced by liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS). Peptides WLP and ISW showed higher oxygen radical absorbance capacity (ORAC) values (2.72 ± 0.47 and 1.93 ± 0.01 μmol L−1 of Trolox equivalent (TE) per μmol L−1 of peptide) than glutathione (GSH). Additionally, WLP effectively increased cell viability, dramatically attenuated 6-Hydroxydopamine (6-OHDA)-induced cell apoptosis and decreased reactive oxygen species (ROS) levels to nearly two-fold, and significantly boosted glutathione peroxidase (GSH-Px) activity in PC12 cells. Transcriptome sequencing revealed differential expression of genes associated with various oxidative stress pathways after WLP treatment, such as glutathione metabolism. These results suggest that the Halocynthia roretzi-derived tripeptide WLP could alleviate neurodegenerative diseases associated with oxidative stress.

Polysaccharides were the key ingredients of many herbal medicines, and were responsible for multiple pharmacological activities. In this study, a novel polysaccharide fraction, named SLP-2, was isolated from Stauntonia leucantha fruits, and purified by DEAE-52 and Sephadex G-100 column chromatography . Furthermore, SLP-2 was identified by congo red, methylation , partial acid hydrolysis and NMR . The results indicated that the backbone of SLP-2 was composed of →4)-β-D-Gal p -(1 → 4)-β-D-Gal p -(1→ substituted at C-6 with 1,5-linked arabinan . SLP-2 had good anti-oxidation ability in vitro. Surprisingly, we found that reduction of carboxyl groups and methylation of hydroxyl groups enhanced the ability to scavenge 2,2′-azinobis (3-ethylbenzothiazoline-6-sulfonic acid) diammonium salt (ABTS) radicals and inhibit lipid peroxidation , and weakened the activity to scavenge 1,1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) radicals and reduce ferric iron.

This study aimed to investigate the safety and probiotic properties of Lactobacillus paraplantarum LS-5 isolated from traditional northeastern sauerkraut , and to assess the antioxidant capacity of different solvent extracts (ethanol, water, and hot water) of L. paraplantarum LS-5-inoculated sauerkraut. L. paraplantarum LS-5 was shown to have various probiotic characteristics, such as good survival ability under artificial gastrointestinal conditions, antagonistic activity of various pathogens, non-biogenic amines, antibiotic susceptibility , and non-hemolytic. The 2,2′-azino-bis-3-ethylbenzothiazoline-6-sulfonate (ABTS) radical scavenging activity of the L. paraplantarum LS-5-inoculated sauerkraut alcohol extract (71.13%) was significantly higher than water extract (59.59%) ( p < 0.05). The ferric reducing antioxidant power (FRAP) of sauerkraut alcohol extract (614.93 Trolox μmol L −1 ) exhibited a slightly stronger ability compared to water extract (388.53 Trolox μmol L −1 ) and the heated sauerkraut water extract (383.20 Trolox μmol L −1 ) at extract concentrations of 5.0 mg mL −1 . Its 1, 1-diphenyl1-2-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) radical scavenging activity was also stronger. It was found by principal component analysis (PCA) and Pearson that the DPPH radical-scavenging activities of sauerkraut extracts were significantly correlated with the content of polyphenols and flavonoids ( p < 0.05). Unlike kimchi , Northeastern sauerkraut is consumed mainly by heating, so this study could contribute to understanding the antioxidant capacity of different solvent extracts of sauerkraut, and before and after heating water extracts.

Background Besides fibre production, Corchorus olitorius is considered a nutritional and medicinal plant in traditional medicine. Its leaves possess different antioxidant compounds and display various biological properties. This study optimized the ultrasound-assisted extraction (UAE) parameters like temperature, time, solvent concentration, and liquid–solid ratio for total flavonoids (TFC) and total polyphenols content (TPC) from leaves employing response surface methodology (RSM). Results Findings demonstrated that under the optimized conditions, the highest extraction yield of total flavonoids (7.17 mg QE/g DW) and total polyphenol content (13.92 mg GAE/g DW) were recorded with the ethanol concentration 70.92%, temperature 68.06 °C, liquid–solid ratio 48.80 mL/mg, and ultrasound irradiation time 37.20 min. The optimum value of TFC (6.96 mg QE/g DW) and TPC (13.38 mg GAE/g DW) from the experiment of verification of optimized conditions was close to the predicted value and significantly superior to the conventional heat reflux extraction (HRE). LC–MS and HPLC analysis of the optimized extract from UAE demonstrated the existence of six major phenolic compounds, including chlorogenic acid, isoquercetin, hyperoside, adhyperforin, 1,3-di- O -caffeoylquinic acid, and 3,4-di- O -caffeoylquinic acid. Furthermore, the antioxidant test of the UAE leaves extract revealed an excellent 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH•), 2,2-azino-bis (3-ethylbenzothiazoline-6-sulfonic acid) (ABTS + •) and hydroxyl radical scavenging with IC 50 values of 226.29, 199.53 and 402.02 µg/mL, respectively, compared to HRE with 336.31 µg/mL, 253.86 µg/mL, 520.08 µg/mL. Conclusions The developed optimization method could contribute to the good recovery of natural antioxidants from C. olitorius in the pharmaceuticals and food industries. Graphical Abstract

In this paper, the preparation, purification, and identification of the antioxidant peptides of millet gliadin after high hydrostatic pressure (HHP) treatment were studied to broaden the utilization range of millet and provide certain theoretical basis for its further processing and utilization. Millet gliadin treated with 300 MPa was enzymatically hydrolyzed by pepsin, and the optimal hydrolysis time was determined to be 50 min by in-vitro antioxidant activity evaluation method [1,1-diphenyl-2-trinitrophenylhydrazine (DPPH) free radical, hydroxyl radical, and superoxide anion scavenging activity]. The enzymatic hydrolysate was separated and purified by gel filtration and RP-HPLC, and the fraction with the strongest antioxidant activity (S4) was obtained. The scavenging ability of DPPH, •OH, and O 2 − were 53.96% ± 0.86%, 31.30% ± 0.90%, and 52.73% ± 0.99%, respectively. However, it still had lower antioxidant capacity compared with VC. Seven peptide sequences, namely, SLSHLTVQ, SLAHVTVQ, LHALTLQ, SGILAPSPVL, SHLTVQ, VSAAAA, and SPAAF, were identified from S4. The presence of certain amino acids, such as Glycine, Leucine, Phenylalanine, and Proline , is considered to induce high antioxidant activity against lipid peroxidation. Therefore, the antioxidant peptide extracted from millet gliadin after HHP treatment may be used as a natural antioxidant component in functional food.

In this study, a novel nanofiber material possessing antibacterial and antioxidant properties was fabricated through coaxial electrospinning, utilizing polylactic acid (PLA), thymol (THY), and nano zinc oxide (ZnO) as the raw materials. THY and ZnO was used to endows the membranes with good antibacterial and antioxidant properties. The surface morphology of the PLA/Z@T nanofiber membrane was characterized using scanning electron microscopy (SEM). Additionally, the successful formation of the core-shell structure was verified through transmission electron microscopy (TEM), fluorescence microscopy, and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR). Additionally, both ZnO and THY exhibit strong antibacterial properties, and their synergistic effect significantly enhances the antibacterial activity of the composite nanofiber membranes against Staphylococcus aureus . The drug sustained release percentages within 24 h for PLA@T and PLA/Z@T were 15.91 % and 14.82 %, respectively. The addition of zinc oxide does not significantly affect the release efficiency of thymol. After continuous release for 288 h, these percentages increased to 73.35 % and 72.94 %, respectively. By assessing antioxidant activity through DPPH and ABTS assays, it was found that PLA/Z@T exhibited higher activity compared to the control group. Subsequently, the in vitro antibacterial performance was investigated, revealing an antibacterial rate higher than that of the control group, the antibacterial rates against Staphylococcus and Escherichia coli reached 99.75 % and 98.49 % respectively. In conclusion, the results demonstrate that PLA/Z@T nanofiber membranes possess excellent antibacterial efficiency, sustained antibacterial performance, and antioxidant properties, offering a novel strategy for antibacterial materials.

As the improvement of consciousness of environment, a considerable effort has been made to shift from petroleum-based plastics to biodegradable alternatives, especially in the food packaging industry. In this work, we develop an innovative food packaging film by encapsulating quercetin (Que) within β -cyclodextrin ( β -CD) to create β -CD-Que inclusion complexes, which are then dispersed in a matrix of tragacanth gum (TG) and carboxymethyl chitosan (CMCS) using a solution casting technique. β -CD-Que inclusion complexes were characterized using various methods, including 1 H NMR, 2D ROESY and phase solubility testing, to elucidate the interaction between Que and β -CD. ATR–IR, X-ray diffraction, and SEM were employed to confirm the uniform dispersion of β -CD-Que within the macromolecular substrate. The incorporation of β -CD-Que considerably improves the mechanical properties of films, increasing the elongation at break from 13.68 % to 25.74 %. Rheological tests demonstrate that the viscosity of the film-forming complex solution became larger. The films were demonstrated to reduced water vapor and oxygen permeability, possessing remarkable antioxidant capability evidenced by DPPH and ABTS radical scavenging rates of 78.01 % and 99.59 %, respectively. The TG/CMCS/ β -CD-Que composite film shows excellent potential for food packaging and preservation applications.

BACKGROUND The Maillard reaction involves the interaction of various amino acids and reducing sugars, resulting in food browning. It often produces appealing aromas and flavors. The complexities of the reaction are such that it can be challenging to identify the often numerous and frequently volatile products formed by it. In the present study, we sought to identify and evaluate an unusual product with anti-oxidant activity arising from a fructose-histidine Maillard reaction model. The anti-oxidant profile of this product was assessed by computational means. RESULTS The fructose-histidine Maillard reaction products (FH-MRPs) were generated by heating a 2:1 mixture of the sugar and the amino acid at 140 °C for 2 h. Chromatographically separable fractions, labelled DM-1 to DM-8, were obtained using silica gel as the stationary phase and dichloromethane/methanol (DCM/MeOH) mixtures as the mobile one. Fraction DM-5 exhibited the highest 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) radical scavenging activity, and further bio-assay guided fractionation led to isolation and identification of 1-(1 H -imidazo[4,5- c ]pyridin-4-yl)ethenone (IMPE) as the active principal, the structure of which was established by nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopic and mass spectral techniques. A mechanism for the formation of IMPE from its precursors is proposed. Density functional theory (DFT) calculations suggest this novel heterocyclic compound exerts its anti-oxidant effects by interacting with DPPH and 2,2'-Azino-bis(3-ethylbenzothiazoline-6-sulfonic acid) (ABTS) radicals. Essentially, IMPE was non-toxic below 300 ug mL −1 , showing a concentration-dependent free radical clearance capacity and reducing power within the 100–1000 μg mL −1 range, and moreover, exhibiting significant Fe 2+ chelating abilities wihin the 50-200 μg mL −1 range. CONCLUSION This study identified the unique FH-MRP, IMPE, and found that it acts as food antioxidant through the chelation of metal ions. © 2024 Society of Chemical Industry.

The structural characterization and antioxidant activity of four Auricularia polysaccharides (A.cornea ACP)、A.auricula(AAP)、A.polytricha (APP) and M.fungus(MFP)) were studied in this paper. The results shown: polysaccharides of four Auricularia were mainly composed of mannose and galactose, all polysaccharides contained uronic acid and pyran ring structure with spectroscopy and NMR analysis. There was a significant difference in the total antioxidant capacity and APP was significantly higher than the other polysaccharides. The ability of APP to scavenge DPPH radicals and hydroxyl radicals was significantly higher than that of other polysaccharides, respectively. The molecular weight was significantly positively correlated with DPPH radicals, superoxide anion radicals and hydroxyl radicals. Total antioxidant capacity was significantly negatively correlated with fucose and galactose. The result indicated that fucose and galactose jointly determine total antioxidant capacity. The polysaccharide from four Auricularia had good oxidation resistance and could be used as natural antioxidants.

Background Extracts from Potentilla species have been applied in traditional medicine and exhibit antioxidant, hypoglycemic, anti-inflammatory, antitumor and anti-ulcerogenic properties, but little has been known about the diversity of phytochemistry and pharmacology on this genus. This study investigated and compared the phytochemical profiles, antioxidant and antimicrobial activities of leaf extracts from three Potentilla species (Potentilla fruticosa, Potentilla glabra and Potentilla parvifolia) in order to discover new resources for lead structures and pharmaceutical products.Methods Chemical composition and content of six phenolic compounds were evaluated and determined by RP-HPLC; Total phenolic and total flavonoid content were determined using Folin-Ciocalteau colourimetric method and sodium borohydride/chloranil-based method (SBC); Antioxidant activities were determined using DPPH, ABTS and FRAP assays; Antimicrobial properties were investigated by agar dilution and mycelial growth rate method.Results The results showed hyperoside was the predominant phenolic compound in three Potentilla species by RP-HPLC assay, with the content of 8.86 (P. fruticosa), 2.56 (P. glabra) and 2.68 mg/g (P. parvifolia), respectively. The highest content of total identified phenolic compounds (hyperoside, (+)-catechin, caffeic acid, ferulic acid, rutin and ellagic acid) was observed in P. parvifolia (14.17 mg/g), follow by P. fruticosa (10.01 mg/g) and P. glabra (7.01 mg/g). P. fruticosa possessed the highest content of total phenolic (84.93 ± 0.50 mmol gallic acid equivalent/100 g) and total flavonoid (84.14 ± 0.03 mmol quercetin equivalent/100 g), which were in good correlation with its significant DPPHIC50 (16.87 μg/mL), ABTS (2763.48 μmol Trolox equivalent/g) and FRAP (1398.70 μmol Trolox equivalent/g) capacities. Furthermore, the effective methodology to distinguish the different species of Potentilla was also established by chromatographic fingerprint analysis for the first time. The results of antimicrobial activities showed P. fruticosa exhibited the strongest inhibition aganist Gram-positive bacteria, Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Candida albicans with MIC values of 0.78–6.25 mg/mL. P. parvifolia possessed antibacterial and antifungal activities against all the microorganisms tested, with EC50 and MIC values of 20.52–47.02 mg/mL and 0.78–50 mg/mL, respectively.Conclusion sThese results indicated that leaf extracts from three Potentilla species could become useful supplement for pharmaceutical products as a new antioxidant and antimicrobial agents.

Kinetics modelling, DPPH radical scavenging activity and reducing power of rapeseed meal protein were investigated under simulated duodenum digestion. Kinetics of the reaction was considered in relation to initial substrate concentration, initial enzyme concentration, and hydrolysis time. Optimum hydrolysis conditions were trypsin concentration of 10 g/L, substrate concentration of 4 g/L, time of 40 min and temperature of 37 °C. From the results a general kinetic enzymolysis equation was suggested, providing a rational theoretical basis for determining the parameters of the reaction. The highest antioxidant activity was in accordance with the optimum reaction conditions. Antioxidant free amino acids increased after hydrolysis. Antioxidant oligopeptides of molecular weights of 2608, 1695 and 211 Da were identified. At a concentration of 2 mg/mL, the peptide fraction of CS-F 2 -CC 2 ; with molecular weight of 1000–1500 Da; showed the highest DPPH radical scavenging activity and reducing power, accounting for 70.32% and 0.538, respectively. The trypsin-hydrolysate displayed a potential capacity to scavenge free radicals and binding irons after duodenal digestion, appearing as promising ingredient to formulate functional foods with antioxidant activity.

Fruit juice is one of the most popular drinks, which requires strict processing conditions to ensure its quality, especially to prevent enzymatic browning and turbidity loss. In this work, a new strategy for the preparation of composite nanofibers for juice clarification and anti-browning control was proposed. The strategy used microfluidic spinning to combine Fucoxanthin (Fx), hydroxypropyl-γ-cyclodextrin (HP-γ-CD) and polyvinyl pyrrolidone (PVP) to prepare Fx/HP-γ-CD-PVP (PCF) nanofibers, which not only reflected the excellent antioxidant properties of cyclodextrin-wrapped Fx, but also achieved a more optimized juice clarification agent dosage. Molecular docking technique was used to prove that the stable inclusion complex of Fx and HP-γ-CD could be formed by hydrogen bonding when the molar ratio of Fx to HP-γ-CD was 1 : 2, and the binding energy was as low as −10.23 kcal mol−1. SEM, XRD, FT-IR and TGA were used to characterize the structure of the composite nanofibers, which showed that the thermal stability and water solubility of the embedded Fx were improved. Further studies showed that the apple juice with PCF nanofibers containing inclusion complexes of Fx and HP-γ-CD at a molar ratio of 1 : 2 (PCF 1 : 2) could significantly improve the DPPH and ABTS radical scavenging activity, and could significantly protect the cell membrane integrity of RAW264.7 cells against H2O2 oxidative damage. Finally, the effects of PCF nanofibers on the quality of fresh juice were studied, including clarification experiment and sensory evaluation. The results showed that the dosage of PVP in PCF 1 : 2 was only about 4% of the conventional dosage, and the browning index of fresh juice was significantly reduced with the best clarification. The available data provided in this study would provide a promising safety strategy for the food processing of fresh juice and the extension of its storage life.
