The common bean (Phaseolus vulgaris L.) represents one of the main crops for human consumption, due to its nutritional and functional qualities. Phenolic compounds have beneficial health effects, beans are an essential source these molecules, being found mainly in seed coat color depends on concentration type phenolic present. during storage processing, such as cooking, germination, extrusion, ...

As an agroindustrial waste product, potato peels contain valuable phenolic compounds that can be extracted before they are sent to the landfill. Based on previous work, this study focused determining efficacies of compound extraction from using conventional shaking (CSE) and both direct ultrasound-assisted (DUAE), indirect (IUAE). The yield curve associated with each method was measured charact...

The steady state kinetic parameters Km and kcat for the oxidation of phenolic substrates by lignin peroxidase correlated with the presteady state kinetic parameters Kd and k for the reaction of the enzyme intermediate compound II with the substrates, indicating that the latter is the rate-limiting step in the catalytic cycle. ln Km and ln Kd values for phenolic substrates correlated with redox ...

Background & Aim: Nowdays consumers prefer to eat healthier foods, therefore producers and researchers are involved to improve the variety, quality, taste of food products. Lemon balm is a perennial, aromatic, herb that contains many phenolic compounds. In this research the effect of additing lemon balm powder (by reducing of wheat flour in formulation, instead) on qualities of sponge cakes wer...

Plant-derived compounds limiting mycotoxin contamination are currently of major interest in food and feed production. However, their potential application requires an evaluation of their effects on fungal secondary metabolism and membrane effects. In this study, different strains of Fusarium culmorum and F. graminearum sensu stricto were exposed to trans-cinnamic and chlorogenic acids on solid ...

The aim of this work was to establish the antioxidant capacity and the polyphenolic profile of Artemisia absinthium that could potentially be used in the human diet. An ultra-high performance liquid chromatographic method was used to identify and quantify individual phenolic compounds of the A. absinthium leaves. A total of 20 polyphenolic compounds were identified and quantified in A. absinthi...
