Summary This research was focused on digestive enzyme inhibition and antioxidant properties of naked oat phenolic acid compound (OPC). Free and bound phenolic acid were separated from ethyl acetate fraction, n -butanol fraction and aqueous fraction. The interactions between OPC and main digestive enzymes (α-amylase, α-glucosidase, pepsin and trypsin) were studied. It was shown that the semi-purified bound phenolic acid (semi-purified by AB-8 column) has a competitive alpha-glucosidase inhibitor, while OPC of the organic extract fraction exhibited the characteristics of a mixed inhibitor. Bound phenolic- n -butanol fraction (IC 50 = 98.39 ± 0.89 µg mL −1 ) had the strongest ability to scavenge the 1,1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH). Additionally, the starch hydrolysis degree of n -butanol extraction naked oat phenolic compound was significantly lower than other fractions in vitro . The integrated results suggested that OPC could be considered as potential healthy factor to control postprandial blood glucose, and the mechanism maybe via anti-digestion, antioxidation and interaction with diabetes-related starch.

The profiles and bioactivities of flavonoids extracted from Dryoathyrium boryanum (Willd.) Ching were investigated. The total flavonoids content in extract from D. boryanum is about 145.8 mg/g. By means of HPLC–DAD–ESI–MS, the main flavonoids in D. boryanum were tentatively identified as 3-hydroxyphloretin 6′-O-hexoside, quercetin-7-hexoside, apigenin7-O-glucoside, luteolin 7-O-glucoside, apigenin 7-O-galactoside, acacetin 7-O-(α-D-apio-furanosyl) (1 → 6)-β- d -glucoside, 3-hydroxy phloretin 6-O-hexoside, luteolin-6- C -glucoside. 0.21 mg/ml flavonoids extract from D. boryanum showed very strong superoxide anion radical scavenging potential, which is higher than that of rutin (0.25 mg/ml). The extract (0.21 mg/ml of flavonoids) from D. boryanum exhibited similar DPPH scavenging potential with that of rutin (0.25 mg/ml). However, rutin (0.25 mg/ml) showed a significantly higher reducing power and ABTS scavenging potential than that of 0.21 mg/ml flavonoids extract from D. boryanum . It had no effect on acetylcholinesterase. D. boryanum can be considered as a medicinal plant and the flavonoids from D. boryanum are excellent antioxidants.

Background and objectives Prolamins are the primary component of millet protein, constituting over 50% ( w / w ) of the total protein. This study aimed to prepare and identify bioactive peptides from millet prolamins (MP). Findings Ultrasonic and heat treatment could change the secondary structure conformation of the protein and invert part of the α-helices into β-sheets or β-turns. After these treatments, the degree of hydrolysis increased. The alcalase-hydrolyzed fraction with molecular weight <1 kDa exhibited the highest antioxidant activity. The bioactive peptides were separated and purified by gel-filtration chromatography and reversed-phase high-performance liquid chromatography. Two novel peptides with molecular weights of 522.3 and 785.5 Da were identified as Pro-Phe-Leu-Phe (PFLF) and Ile-Ala-Leu-Leu-Ile-Pro-Phe (IALLIPF), respectively. Both peptides showed high antioxidant activity, especially PFLF, the 1,1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) radical scavenging ability (RSA) of which was 149 μM TE/g protein, and the Oxygen radical absorbance capacity (ORAC) value reached 1,180 μM TE/g protein. Conclusions The results demonstrate that ultrasonic and heat treatment could enhance hydrolysis of MP by protease and antioxidant peptides with high DPPH RSA as well as ORAC value were purified and obtained. Significance and novelty Ultrasonic and heat treatment increased degree of MP hydrolysis. Two antioxidant peptides were successfully obtained from millet prolamins.

Zizyphus jujuba has been used as a traditional Chinese medicinal herb since ancient time. Polysaccharides have been found to be important bioactive compounds in the jujube. This work was designed to investigate the physicochemical characteristics and bioactivities of polysaccharides purified from Zizyphus jujuba cv. Muzao . Water-soluble polysaccharides were extracted using an ultrasonically assisted extraction method. The purified polysaccharides (HJP) were obtained by deproteinization and decoloration. Three main fractions (HJP1, HJP2 and HJP3) were isolated using DEAE-Sepharose fast flow ion-exchange chromatography. The purified polysaccharides were found to consist of mannose, rhamnose, galactose, galacturonic acid, glucose and arabinose at various levels for different fractions. The HJP and its three main fractions displayed DPPH radical scavenging activities as well as relatively strong reducing power and HJP had stronger activities than homogeneous compositions. Moreover, the results from in vitro immunological activities studies indicated that HJP could improve the phagocytosis activity of THP-l cells and had effect on the expression of pro-inflammatory cytokines (TNF-α, IL-1β, IL-6). In conclusion, the polysaccharides from Zizyphus jujuba cv. Muzao were discovered to have antioxidative and immunological activities.

A cell-bound exopolysaccharide (c-EPS) from Lactobacillus fermentum S1 was isolated and purified to near homogeneity by anion exchange and gel filtration chromatography. The c-EPS is a homogeneous heteropolysaccharide with an average molecular weight of 7.19 × 10 5 Da and comprises mainly mannose, rhamnose, glucose, and galactose. Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy spectrum of the c-EPS exhibited typical characteristic absorption peaks of polysaccharides. Methylation and NMR analyses showed that the c-EPS had a backbone of α-D-Gal p -(1 → 3), α-L-Rha p -(1 → 2), α-D-Glc p -(1 → 3), β-D-Gal p -(1 → 3), β-D-Glcl p -(1 → 2), and β-L-Rha p -(1 → 3,4) residues, terminated with α-D-Man p -(1 → residue. The advanced structure study indicated the c-EPS not to have a triple-helical conformation, while the microstructural study revealed a hollow porous structure for c-EPS. Further, the thermal analysis showed that the degradation temperature for the c-EPS was 288.0 °C; its peak temperature was 89.4 °C with an enthalpy value of 273.1 J/g. Moreover, the c-EPS exhibited potent DPPH, hydroxyl, and ABTS + radicals scavenging activities, as well as FRAP in a dose-dependent manner, which could significantly enhance the T-AOC and SOD activity and reduce MDA level in Caenorhabditis elegans. Therefore, this c-EPS could be utilized as a promising natural antioxidant for application in functional foods.

Twenty-one kinds of fruits including strawberry, mulberry, lemon, banana, etc. were measured for antioxidant capacity based on their ability to scavenge 1,1-diphenyl-2-picryl-hydrazyl (DPPH) radical. Vitamin C equivalent antioxidant capacity (VCEAC) was used to quantify antioxidant capacity of the studied fruits. The results were expressed as mg of ascorbic acid equivalent per 100 g fruit. Each fruit was divided into two parts: harvest part (fresh fruit analyzed immediately), and liquid nitrogen frozen part (fruit frozen and pulverized in liquid nitrogen). Antioxidant capacities of both fresh and frozen fruits were determined, and VCEAC values were proved to have no significant difference. For the frozen fruits, the antioxidant capacities were measured by electron spin resonance spectroscopy (ESR) and UV–vis spectrometry. VCEAC values obtained with UV–vis and ESR range from 11.48 to 345.75 mg/100 g and 7.01 to 366.26 mg/100 g. Experimental results indicated that VCEAC values obtained by two methods were highly correlated.

In order to provide new information on the antioxidant activities before and after in vitro digestion of the selected flowers for consumers, nutritionists, and food policy makers, total phenolic and flavonoid contents and antioxidant capacities of 23 edible flowers were evaluated. In addition, some bioactive components in the flowers were also identified and quantified by ultra performance liquid chromatography (UPLC). The correlations between 2, 2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazylradical scavenging activity assay (DPPH), Ferric reducing antioxidant power assay (FRAP), and ABTS •+ radical cation scavenging activity assay (ABTS) values and total flavonoid contents and total phenolic contents were also evaluated. Three flowers, Osmanthus fragrans (Thunb.) Lour, Paeonia lactiflora Pall, and Rosa rugosa Thunb (purple) showed the strongest antioxidant activities before or after the digestion, which implied that these flowers are important natural sources for the prevention of oxidative stress diseases.

Houttuynia cordata Thunb. (H.cordata) , as a traditional Chinese medicinal herb and food, has been used to treat various diseases because of rich content in flavonoids. Here, an ultra-high performance liquid chromatography with triple quadrupole tandem mass spectrometry (UPLC-TQ-MS/MS) method was proposed for the determination of flavonoids profiling in H.cordata . Single factor experiment and response surface methodology were used to optimize the pretreatment process of H.cordata samples. The optimal conditions were as follows: ultrasonic temperature: room temperature (25 °C); ultrasonic time: 5 min; solid-liquid ratio: 1:40 and concentration of ethanol: 60%. The method showed the good linearity ( r ≥ 0.9855), the satisfactory intra-day (RSD%≤10.94%) and inter-day precision (RSD% ≤ 11.2%) and low limit of quantification (< 0.01 µg/mL). The content of flavonoids in flowers and leaves was much higher than in roots and stems. The flavonoids in the leaves of H.cordata from Chongqing was the highest (9.22 mg/g), and that in the flowers of H.cordata from Hubei province was the highest (6.69 mg/g). In addition, the antioxidant activity of the extracts of H.cordata was evaluated using the scavenging effect of the extracts on five free radicals and the iron ion reducing ability. The best antioxidant activity was observed in scavenging DPPH free radicals with EC 50 value of 295.16 µg/mL. The scavenging of ABTS•+ free radicals and PTIO• free radicals was also effective with EC 50 values of 818.82 µg/mL and 685.43 685.43 µg/mL, respectively. Thus, this study will be helpful to the development and utilization of flavonoids from H.cordata in food and pharmaceutical industries.

The extraction of total flavonoids fromHylotelephium spectabile(Boreau) H. Ohba (H. spectabile) leaves was studied through the use of a double enzyme-assisted ultrasonic method, and the extraction process was optimized using the Box–Behnken design. Eight different macroporous resins were screened for purification in single-factorial experiments, and the flavonoid compounds in the extract ofH. spectabileleaves were identified using HPLC-MS. Through the evaluation of the total reducing capacity and capacity for reducing 1,1-diphenyl-2-trinitrophenylhydrazine (DPPH), hydroxyl radicals (·OH), and 2,2’-biazobis(3-ethylbenzothiazoline-6-sulfonic acid) diammonium salt (ABTS), the in vitro antioxidant activities of the crude extracts of the total flavonoids and purified total flavonoids ofH. spectabileleaves were investigated. The results showed that the most efficient conditions for flavonoid extraction were an ultrasonic extraction time of 60 min, an ethanol concentration of 35%, a liquid-to-material ratio of 20:1 mL/g, and an amount of enzyme (cellulose/pectinase = 1:1) of 1.5%, formingH. spectabilepowder. Under these conditions, the total flavonoid extraction rate in theH. spectabileleaf extract was 4.22%. AB-8 resin showed superior performance in terms of purification, and the optimal adsorption and desorption times were 1.5 h and 3 h, respectively. The recommended parameters for purification included a liquid volume of 5.5 BV, a flow rate of 1.2 BV/min, a pH of 5, and a concentration of 0.8 mg/mL. The observed order for reducing capacity was ascorbic acid (VC) > rutin > purified total flavonoids > crude extract of total flavonoids. The purified total flavonoid extract fromH. spectabileshowed a good scavenging ability against DPPH, ·OH, and ABTS·+, suggesting strong antioxidant activity. Therefore, this study can serve as technical support and reference data for the further development and utilization ofH. spectabileresources.

In this study, ten pea ( Pisum sativum L.) varieties were compared in their nutrient composition, phenolic compounds, antioxidant properties and their diversity were deciphered by multivariate analysis of correlation analysis and principal component analysis (PCA). The ten pea cultivars are rich in nutrients with different contents in lipid (0.57 to 3.52%), dietary fiber (11.34 to 16.13%), soluble sugar (17.53 to 23.99%), protein (19.75 to 26.48%) and starch (32.56 to 48.57%). Through the UPLC-QTOF-MS and HPLC-QQQ-MS/MS analysis, the ethanol extracts of ten peas mainly included 12 kinds of phenolic substances and showed good antioxidant activities on the 1,1-Diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) radical scavenging, ferric reducing antioxidant power (FRAP) and oxygen radical absorbance capacity (ORAC). The phenolic content and protocatechuic acid showed a positive correlation with antioxidant capacity. All results provide theoretical basis for the development and rational application of different varieties of peas and their related products.

A potentially functional yogurt co-fermentation with Gnaphalium affine was prepared and its quality and antioxidant properties were investigated. According to the classic procedure, a novel yogurt was successfully prepared with Gnaphalium affine extract (EGA). During the storage period, the pH value and titratable acidity of yogurt showed no obvious changes compared with control. However, the texture properties of yogurt, such as firmness, adhesiveness, cohesiveness and springiness, could be effectively improved. Moreover, the yogurt possessed the lower syneresis susceptibility and higher viability of Lactobacillus bulgaricus and Streptococcus thermophilus than the control. Furthermore, the yogurt showed remarkable antioxidant potential to scavenge 2, 2′-azinobis-3-ethylbenzthiazoline-6-sulphonate (ABTS), 1,1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH), superoxide and hydroxyl radicals. Meanwhile, the yogurt could enhance the activities of antioxidant enzymes, including superoxide dismutase (SOD), catalase (CAT) and glutathione peroxidase (GSH-Px), and it could also lead to a significant decrease of malondialdehyde (MDA) level in animal serums. The current results suggest that the yogurt co-fermentation with EGA possesses high quality properties and remarkable antioxidant potential, and thus has the great potential to be used as a novel functional food product in food industry.
