Chocolate and cocoa: New sources of trans-resveratrol and trans-piceid
نویسندگان
چکیده
trans-Resveratrol and trans-piceid were found for the first time in dark chocolate (at least 0.4 ppm trans-resveratrol and 1 ppm trans-piceid) and cocoa liquor (at least 0.5 ppm trans-resveratrol and 1.2 ppm trans-piceid). Because these compounds are highly sensitive to light, a specific extraction procedure was required to recover them, involving delipidation with toluene and cyclohexane and ethanol/water (80/20, v/v) solid–liquid extraction at 60 C before reverse-phase HPLC-MS/MS analysis (atmospheric pressure chemical ionization [APCI] in the positive mode). Thanks to an exceptionally high procyanidin content, chocolate products displayed higher antioxidant activity than much more concentrated commercial stilbene extracts. 2005 Elsevier Ltd.

Survey of the trans-resveratrol and trans-piceid content of cocoa-containing and chocolate products.
Dietary resveratrol (3,4',5-trihydroxystilbene) has been implicated in the health benefits associated with grapes and red wine, more specifically with potential benefits for metabolic syndrome, energy use, and increased endurance. Levels of trans-resveratrol and its glucoside, trans-piceid, were determined in 19 top selling commercially available cocoa-containing and chocolate products from the...
متن کاملPiceid, the major resveratrol derivative in grape juices.
The levels of trans-piceid, cis-piceid, trans-resveratrol, and cis-resveratrol have been measured in 36 grape juices using an HPLC system with spectral analysis of eluting peaks. The piceid (glucosides) were the major component in the grape juices. In red grape juices the average concentrations were 3.38 mg/L for trans-piceid, 0.79 mg/L for cis-piceid, 0.50 mg/L for trans-resveratrol, and 0.06 ...
متن کاملResveratrols in Grape Berry Skins and Leaves in Vitis Germplasm
BACKGROUND Resveratrol is an important stilbene that benefits human health. However, it is only distributed in a few species including grape and is very expensive. At present, grape has been an important source resveratrol. However, the details are scarce on resveratrol distribution in different Vitis species or cultivars. METHODOLOGY/PRINCIPAL FINDING The composition and content of resveratr...
متن کاملPotentiality of red sorghum for producing stilbenoid-enriched beers with high antioxidant activity.
trans-Piceid and trans-resveratrol were authenticated for the first time by high-resoution mass spectrometry in red sorghum grains. A 0.4-1 mg/kg amount of trans-piceid and up to 0.2 mg/kg trans-resveratrol were quantified by reversed phase high-performance liquid chromatography-atmospheric pressure chemical ionization(+)-tandem mass spectrometry. The white sorghum samples contained only traces...
متن کاملDetermination of stilbenes in hop pellets from different cultivars.
About 30% of the polyphenols in wort and beer derive from hop, but little is yet known about their nutritional impact. The recent discovery of trans-resveratrol and piceid isomers in hop opens new doors to understanding beer health benefits. In the present work, resveratrol was quantified by HPLC-APCI-MS/MS in pellets from 9 different cultivars. Concentrations ranging from 4 to 9 mg/kg trans-pi...
