background & aim:extracts of roselle calyx,   possess compounds which could be considered as a great source of natural antioxidants.   in this project, antioxidant activities, phenolic compounds content and their   correlation analysis on calices of roselle (hibiscus sabdariffa) was investigated.  experimental: total polyphenolic compound, flavonoids and anthocyanins were determined spectrophot...

the major objectives of this study were to find out the mechanism behind the sapstaining fungal hyphae penetration into wood elements using electron microscope and to evaluate the exact role of phenolic compounds existing in wood vinegar towards the sapstaining fungal growth inhibition. to formulate the new environmental friendly wood preservative, we neutralized (to ph 7) wood vinegar with nao...

phenolic and flavonoid compounds are secondary metabolites of plants which possess various activities such as anti-inflammatory, analgesic, anti-diabetes and anticancer effects. it has been established that these compounds can scavenge free radicals produced in the body. because of this ability, not only the plants containing phenolic and flavonoid compounds but also, the pure compounds are use...

Wastewater from cork processing industry present high levels of organic compounds such as phenolics that must be degraded before discharge into the municipal sewer or into public water courses. The aim of this work was to find out if gamma radiation treatment could increase the biodegradability of recalcitrant compounds using a microbial consortium and a mixed solution of four phenolic acids as...

The focus of the present research was to study inhibition of lipoxygenase activity by rapeseed native polyphenols and the interactions between those compounds and the enzyme. The enzyme and polyphenolic compounds (polyphenols, phenolic acids) were extracted from rapeseed (Brassica napus) varieties Aviso and PR45DO3. The total phenolic compounds concentration in tested rapeseed was 1,485-1,691 m...

Phenolic compounds in tea plant [Camellia sinensis (L.)] play a crucial role in dominating tea flavor and possess a number of key pharmacological benefits on human health. The present research aimed to study the profile of tissue-specific, development-dependent accumulation pattern of phenolic compounds in tea plant. A total of 50 phenolic compounds were identified qualitatively using liquid ch...

This study aimed to determine the effect of gamma radiation on the preservation of phenolic compounds and on decontamination of dry herbs in terms of ochratoxin A (OTA) and aflatoxin B1 (AFB1), using Aloysia citrodora Paláu as a case study. For this purpose, artificially contaminated dry leaves were submitted to gamma radiation at different doses (1, 5, and 10 kGy; at dose rate of 1.7 kGy/h). P...

Phenolic compounds like phenolic acids, flavonoids and tannins are important plant metabolites that are important for many pharmacological activites.we had earlier demonstrated the wound healing activity, analgesic and anti inflammatory of the methanolic extract. The extract was investigated to determine the nature of the phytoconstituents responsible for these activities and this led to the is...

Types of nettles (Urtica dioica) were collected from different regions to analyze phenolic compounds in this research. Nettles are specially grown in the coastal part. According to this kind of properties, nettle samples were collected from coastal part of (Mediterranean, Aegean, Black sea, and Marmara) Turkey. Phenolic profile, total phenol compounds, and antioxidant activities of nettle sampl...
