In the present study, the Salmonella typhimurium tester strain TA 100 was used in the plate-incorporation test to examine the antimutagenic potential of caffeic, ferulic and cichoric acids extracted from plant species of genera Echinacea (L) Moench, as well as of another phenolic acids, on 3-(5-nitro-2-furyl)acrylic acid (5NFAA) and sodium azide mutagenicity. All tested compounds possess antimu...

Vanillin is widely used as food additive and as a masking agent in various pharmaceutical formulations. Ferulic acid is an important precursor of vanillin that is available in abundance in cell walls of cereals like wheat, corn, and rice. Phenolic biotransformations can occur during growth of lactic acid bacteria (LAB), and their production can be made feasible using specialized LAB strains tha...

Phenolic composition of different extracts of honeydew melon seeds and their antioxidant activity was determined for the first time. Phenolic compounds were identified using a reversed phase high performance liquid chromatography with diode array detection (HPLC-DAD) method. Results showed the identification of five phenolic compounds in water extract namely gallic acid and its derivative, hydroxyb...

In the present research, the copigmentations of malvidin-3-O-glucoside with five hydroxybenzoic cofactors (p-hydroxybenzoic acid, protocatechuic acid, gallic acid, vanillic acid, and syringic acid) were investigated. The influence of the concentration of these cofactors and the reaction temperature was examined. The equilibrium constant (K), stoichiometric ratio (n) and the thermodynamic parame...

The total phenol content (TPC) in coconut oil varies with extraction method, variety, nature of kernel components and geographical origin. Commonly reported TPCs oils extracted by dry methods wet are the range 70-300 mg/kg 250-650 mg/kg, respectively. Based on commonly data, TPC up to 527 oil, 180 172 due influence variety components, identity phenolic compounds also method. Caffeic acid, catec...
