in this research the effect of conventional and ohmic pasteurization and storage time at different temperatures on some bioactive components of aloe vera gel juice was investigated. aloe vera gel juice was pasteurized conventionally and ohmically at 90 ºc for 1 min. the effect of pasteurization on vitamin c, total phenolic content  and juice color was evaluated. the samples pasteurized conventi...

The ellagic acid, total phenolic, and vitamin C contents in four raspberry cultivars (Heritage, Autumn Bliss, Rubi, and Zeva) grown in Spain were detected and quantified by HPLC in fresh, just frozen, and stored fruits at -20 degrees C for a one year period. Ellagic acid [207-244 mg kg(-)(1) of fresh weight (fw)], total phenolic (137-1776 mg kg(-)(1) of fw), and vitamin C (221-312 mg kg(-)(1) o...

C(3) crops are generally considered more sensitive than C(4) crops to the elevated CO(2) and O(3), but it is unclear whether the concentrations of phenolic compounds in them are affected. In this paper, an enrichment experiment with open-top chamber was conducted to examine the effects of elevated CO(2), O(3), and their combination on the contents of total phenolic compounds and flavone in the ...

The aim of present study was to appraise the antioxidant activity and phenolic contents in peel and pulp parts from two locally harvested verities of pear. The extraction yield of antioxidant components obtained with 80% methanol (80:20 methanol-water v/v) was found to be 14.30-17.50% for peel and 11.50-13.00 g/100 g for pulp on dry weight basis. The total phenolic contents and total flavoniod ...

ABSTRACT The efficacy of gamma irradiation is well versed as a method of decontamination for food and herbal resources. In the present study, Cichorium intybus L. roots were irradiated at multiple doses of 1, 2, 4, 6, 8 and 10 kGy by a cobalt-60 irradiator. The irradiated and non-irradiated control samples were evaluated for total phenolic contents, chlorogenic acid assay, 2,2-diphenyl-1-...

In this study, rapeseed Okapi cultivar was treated under three NaCl levels (0, 50 and 100 mM) and four Zinc oxide nanoparticles (ZnO NPs) concentrations (0, 20, 40 and 80 mgL-1) at flowering stage. The experiment was performed in a completely randomized design (CRD) in the greenhouse of Biology Department of Urmia University, in 2015. Results showed that NaCl (100 mM) significantly enhanced tot...

Ficus carica is a worldwide important crop. Its different parts such as leaves, stem barks, fruit and roots are used in traditional medicine from ancient age to treat the various diseases. In this research, total phenolic content, antioxidant activity, yield of extract and profiling of phenolic compounds of maturated leaves of different cultivars of F. carica were investigated by using two diff...

BACKGROUND Ulva genus, an edible seaweed, and an important food source in many south-east Asian countries is also recognized by its synonymous name as Enteromorpha. OBJECTIVES This study was carried out to evaluate antioxidant activity, contents of total phenolics, and flavonoids of methanolic extracts of edible green seaweeds including Ulva clathrata (Roth) C. Agardh and three samples of Ulv...
