The antioxidative effect of herring (Clupea harengus) light muscle press juice (PJ) against hemoglobin-(Hb-) mediated oxidation of washed cod mince during ice storage was tested. The PJ was fractionated into low-molecular-weight (LMW; <1 [corrected] kDa) and high-molecular-weight (HMW; >1, >3.5, and > 50 kDa) fractions; it was preheated (10 min, 100 degrees C) and tested with or without removing heat coagulated proteins. Its antioxidative effect was compared with that given by endogenous levels of two tentative antioxidant candidates: ascorbic acid and uric acid. Oxidation was followed by determining rancid odor, peroxide value, and redness. Whole herring PJ and the LMW-PJ fraction significantly (p < 0.001) extended the oxidation lag phase of controls, from 2 up to 8 and 7 days, respectively. The HWM-PJ fractions were significantly (p < 0.05) less efficient than the whole and LMW-PJ samples, giving only 3.5-4.5 days of lag phase. Heat-treated PJ, with and without the heat-coagulated proteins, gave 7 and 5 days of oxidation lag phase, respectively. Heating different batches of the LMW-PJ fraction grouped the results into two categories: one where heating almost fully destroyed the antioxidative activity (fractions prepared from spring-caught herring) and another where heating had no or a minor effect (fractions prepared from fall-caught herring). The spring LMW-PJ had low ascorbic acid levels (18-42.6 microM), and 50-100% were destroyed by the heating. In fall LMW-PJ, the levels were 76.2-137.6 microM, and only 43-51% were destroyed. Ascorbic acid fortification of heated spring LMW-PJ to reach the levels found in the corresponding unheated spring LMW-PJ sample and the heated fall LMW-PJ gave back most of the antioxidative activity, which proved an important role of ascorbic acid for the antioxidative activity of LMW-herring PJ. This conclusion is drawn despite the fact that pure solutions with endogenous levels of ascorbic acid (giving 8.4-19.6 microM in final model) only very slightly delayed Hb-mediated oxidation of the washed cod mince.  相似文献

It was evaluated whether trout hemoglobin (Hb)-mediated oxidation of minced washed cod muscle lipids could be prevented by an aqueous isolate from cod and some other muscle sources. Lipid hydroperoxides and painty odor developed approximately 4 days faster in washed than unwashed cod mince. When adding back an aqueous fraction (press juice) isolated from unwashed mince to washed mince at 2-6-fold dilutions, development of hydroperoxides and painty odor was either delayed or completely prevented. The inhibitory substances were heat stable, and their effect was slightly reduced at reduced pH. The <1 kDa fractions of whole and heated press juices were as inhibitory as the unfractionated press juices. Inhibition by the unheated, heated, and ultrafiltered (30 kDa) press juices was lost after dialysis. These findings implied the presence of one or more highly effective aqueous low molecular weight antioxidants in cod muscle press juice. The same antioxidative properties were found in heated haddock, dab, and winter flounder muscle press juices but not in heated herring and chicken muscle press juices. Unheated chicken press juice was however highly inhibitory.  相似文献

A number of different beverage products claim to have antioxidant potency due to their perceived high content of polyphenols. Basic and applied research indicates that pomegranate juice (PJ), produced from the Wonderful variety of Punica granatum fruits, has strong antioxidant activity and related health benefits. Although consumers are familiar with the concept of free radicals and antioxidants, they are often misled by claims of superior antioxidant activity of different beverages, which are usually based only on testing of a limited spectrum of antioxidant activities. There is no available direct comparison of PJ's antioxidant activity to those of other widely available polyphenol-rich beverage products using a comprehensive variety of antioxidant tests. The present study applied (1) four tests of antioxidant potency [Trolox equivalent antioxidant capacity (TEAC), total oxygen radical absorbance capacity (ORAC), free radical scavenging capacity by 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH), and ferric reducing antioxidant power (FRAP)]; (2) a test of antioxidant functionality, that is, inhibition of low-density lipoprotein (LDL) oxidation by peroxides and malondialdehyde methods; and (3) evaluation of the total polyphenol content [by gallic acid equivalents (GAEs)] of polyphenol-rich beverages in the marketplace. The beverages included several different brands as follows: apple juice (3), a?aí juice (3), black cherry juice (3), blueberry juice (3), cranberry juice (3), Concord grape juice (3), orange juice (3), red wines (3), iced tea beverages (10) [black tea (3), green tea (4), white tea (3)], and a major PJ available in the U.S. market. An overall antioxidant potency composite index was calculated by assigning each test equal weight. PJ had the greatest antioxidant potency composite index among the beverages tested and was at least 20% greater than any of the other beverages tested. Antioxidant potency, ability to inhibit LDL oxidation, and total polyphenol content were consistent in classifying the antioxidant capacity of the polyphenol-rich beverages in the following order: PJ>red wine>Concord grape juice>blueberry juice>black cherry juice, a?aí juice, cranberry juice>orange juice, iced tea beverages, apple juice. Although in vitro antioxidant potency does not prove in vivo biological activity, there is also consistent clinical evidence of antioxidant potency for the most potent beverages including both PJ and red wine.  相似文献

Reactive oxygen species (ROS) can cause oxidative stress, which has been linked to various diseases. It has been suggested that antioxidant-rich foods can reduce such oxidative stress. However, the lack of suitable model systems to screen for in vivo effects of food-derived antioxidants has prevented a clear consensus in this area. In this study, the aim was to use a single-cell model system (human monocyte) to evaluate whether certain pure antioxidants and complex muscle extracts (herring light muscle press juice, PJ) could prevent ROS formation under in vivo like conditions. ROS were excreted from the monocytes upon stimulation with phorbol myristate acetate and were then detected as isoluminol-enhanced chemiluminescence (CL). Adding 2000 units of catalase and 50 units of superoxide dismutase to the monocytes model lowered the CL response by 35 and 86%, respectively. Ascorbate (14.1 mM) lowered the response by 99%, alpha-tocoperhol (188 microM) by 37%, and Trolox (50 microM) by almost 100%. Crude herring PJ gave a dose-dependent reduction in the CL response. At 10, 100, and 1000 times dilution, the PJ reduced the CL signal by 93, 60.5, and 10.6%. PJ fractionated into low molecular weight (LMW) (<1000 Da) and high molecular weight (>3500 Da) fractions decreased the CL response by 52.9 and 71.4%, respectively, at a 100-fold dilution. Evaluation of the PJ samples in the oxygen radical absorbance capacity test indicated that proteins may be the primary radical scavenging compounds of PJ, whereas the ROS-preventing effect obtained from the LMW fraction may also be attributed to other mechanisms. Thus, this study proved that the monocyte assay can be a useful tool for studying whether food-derived antioxidants can limit ROS production under physiologically relevant conditions. It also showed that herring contains numerous aqueous compounds demonstrating antioxidative effects in the monocyte model system.  相似文献

Unheated press juice (PJ) obtained from chicken breast muscle was a potent inhibitor of hemoglobin-mediated lipid oxidation in washed cod muscle. The <1 kDa fraction had a negligible effect on the rate of lipid oxidation. The high-molecular-weight (HMW) fraction was mildly inhibitory when added alone and highly inhibitory in the presence of <1 kDa components. Proteins of the HMW fraction were further fractionated by ammonium sulfate precipitation. Proteins in the 80% fraction were most inhibitory compared with other precipitated fractions on an equal protein basis. Inhibition by PJ was substantially decreased due to treatment with ascorbate oxidase. Adding ascorbate to the HMW fraction did not increase its inhibition, which suggested the presence of a complex ascorbate-reducing system in PJ consisting of HMW and low-molecular-weight (LMW) components. The ability of added ceruloplasmin to inhibit lipid oxidation was remarkably enhanced by addition of ascorbate or the <1 kDa fraction. Heated and centrifuged PJ had 8 times more LMW iron compared to unheated PJ. Adding heated PJ to washed cod containing hemoglobin slightly increased the rate and extent of lipid oxidation.  相似文献

Three different solvent extracts (methanol, ethyl acetate, and n-hexane) of longan ( Dimocarpus longan Lour.) flowers were assayed with three different antioxidant capacity methods, namely, the DPPH free radical scavenging effect, the oxygen radical absorbance capacity (ORAC) assay, and the inhibition of Cu(2+)-induced oxidation of human low-density lipoprotein (LDL). It was revealed that the methanol extract has the best antioxidative activity, followed by ethyl acetate and n-hexane extracts. The methanol extract was separated by liquid-liquid partition into n-hexane, ethyl acetate, n-butanol, and water fractions. The ethyl acetate fraction was found to have the highest activity of delaying LDL oxidation. After silica gel column chromatography, the fraction having a superior activity was identified as containing two major compounds, (-)-epicatechin and proanthocyanidin A2.  相似文献

Milled oat groat pearlings, trichomes, flour, and bran were extracted with methanol and the fractions tested in vitro for antioxidant capacity against low-density lipoprotein (LDL) oxidation and R-phycoerythrin protein oxidation in the oxygen radical absorbance capacity (ORAC) assay. The oxidative reactions were generated by 2,2'-azobis(2-amidinopropane) HCl (AAPH) or Cu(2+) in the LDL assay and by AAPH or Cu(2+) + H(2)O(2) in the ORAC assay and calibrated against a Trolox standard to calculate Trolox equivalents (1 Trolox equivalent = 1 TE = activity of 1 micromol of Trolox). The antioxidant capacity of the oat fractions was generally consistent with a potency rank of pearlings (2.89-8.58 TE/g) > flour (1.00-3.54 TE/g) > trichome (1.74 TE/g) = bran (1.02-1.62 TE/g) in both LDL and ORAC assays regardless of the free radical generator employed. A portion of the oat antioxidant constituents may be heat labile as the greatest activity was found among non-steam-treated pearlings. The contribution of oat tocols from the fractions accounted for <5% of the measured antioxidant capacity. AAPH-initiated oxidation of LDL was inhibited by the oat fractions in a dose-dependent manner, although complete suppression was not achieved with the highest doses tested. In contrast, Cu(2+)-initiated oxidation of LDL stimulated peroxide formation with low oat concentrations but completely inhibited oxidation with higher doses. Thus, oats possess antioxidant capacity most of which is likely derived from polar phenolic compounds in the aleurone.  相似文献

Tissue- and species-specific peptides of the grapefruit have been investigated by SDS-PAGE and Western blot. Five peptides from the juice and one peptide from the peel were isolated by preparative gel electrophoresis. Polyclonal antibodies were developed against them in mice. It can be established that 82, 63, and 46 kDa peptides occurred exclusively in the samples prepared from the grapefruit and the lemon juice, whereas in the orange juice, only the 82 kDa peptide could be detected. The 31 kDa peptide is characteristic for the peel samples of grapefruit and lemon. The 210 kDa peptide did not show any specificity. A 117 kDa peptide appeared in the juice and peel of grapefruit and in the peel of lemon but not in the orange. From the data of this study, it is supposed that some of the polyclonal antibodies developed against characteristic juice and peel peptides can be used to test commercial grapefruit juice products for adulteration.  相似文献

Instrumental measurement of redness loss (decrease in a* value) was evaluated as a tool to follow hemoglobin (Hb)-mediated lipid oxidation in fish muscle. Two washed cod mince model systems were used (prepared at pH 6.5 and 5.5), both fortified with 15 micromol/kg of trout Hb and adjusted to pH 6.5 and 81% moisture. The rate of oxidation was varied through pH alterations (pH 6.1 and 6.9) and addition of an antioxidative cod muscle press juice. During ice storage, TBARS, painty odor, and a* values were followed. In all "oxidizing" samples, a* values correlated well with TBARS and painty odor development; r = -0.95 and -0.77, respectively. In press juice containing samples, the correlation was lower (0.55 for a vs TBARS) because there was a slight a* value decrease even in the absence of measurable lipid oxidation. a* values distinguished between "oxidizing" and stable samples within 1 day, before any lipid oxidation products could be chemically detected. It was confirmed in an aqueous phosphate buffer model system that the redness loss corresponded to a buildup of brownish met-Hb at the expense of oxy- and deoxy-Hb. The a* value data were best used as a lipid oxidation index by calculating the rate of decrease (k value) in the "initial phase" of the redness loss (before accumulation of lipid oxidation products) or in the "differentiation phase" (during the exponential raise in TBARS/painty odor). Calibration to lipid oxidation products must, however, be made for each specific sample type. Washing method, pH, Hb-type, etc., all affected both k values and absolute a* readings. Small yellowness (b*) increases also occurred along with a value losses, possibly the result of polymerized Schiff bases.  相似文献

Six Manitoba fruits were analyzed for their phytochemical content and antioxidant activity in order to increase their production and marketability. The major proanthocyanidins (flavanols) present in whole fruit, juice, and pulp of strawberry, Saskatoon berry, raspberry, wild blueberry, chokecherry, and seabuckthorn were measured. The extraction and purification were facilitated using flash column chromatography, while separation and identification were accomplished by using HPLC and LC-MS techniques. The total proanthocyanidin contents varied from 275.55 to 504.77 mg/100 g in the whole fruit samples. Raspberry contained the highest content, and seabuckthorn showed the lowest content of total flavanols. The highest concentration of proanthocyanidin in juice was found in Saskatoon berry (1363.34 mg/100 mL) and the lowest value in strawberry (622.60 mg/100 mL). HPLC and LC-MS results indicated that epicatechin was the most abundant flavanol followed by B2 in the berry samples, while no catechin or B1 was detected in these fruits. A series of oligomers and polymers were detected in all samples. The recovery percentage was obtained from the ratio of the unspiked samples to the area of spiked samples. Monomers, dimers, oligomers, and polymers gave recovery ranges of 83-99%. The lipophilic and hydrophilic antioxidant capacities of whole fruit, juice, and pulp extracts were measured by the oxygen radical absorbance capacity (ORAC) procedure. In whole fruits, the ORAC values varied from 135 to 479 mg/100 g TE in the MeOH fraction. The corresponding ORAC values varied from 115.30 to 733.15 mg/100 g for the acetone fraction. In juice, all berries showed the same antioxidant capacity (P > 0.05) (133.0-312.0 mg/100 g) in the MeOH fraction, with the exception of raspberry (603.0 mg/100 g). Overall, MeOH fractions mainly contained monomers and dimers with smaller amounts of oligomers and polymers when compared to the acetone fractions. Acetone fractions mainly contained polymers and some oligomers. Although acetone fractions contained a higher quantity of total proanthocyanidins, their antioxidant capacities were lower than MeOH fractions.  相似文献

We have analyzed in vivo and in vitro the antiatherogenic properties and mechanisms of action of all pomegranate fruit parts: peels (POMxl, POMxp), arils (POMa), seeds (POMo), and flowers (POMf), in comparison to whole fruit juice (PJ). Atherosclerotic E 0 mice consumed POM extracts [200 microg of gallic acid equivalents (GAE)/mouse/day] for 3 months. Blood samples, peritoneal macrophages (MPM), and aortas were then collected. All POM extracts possess antioxidative properties in vitro. After consumption of PJ, POMxl, POMxp, POMa, or POMf by E (0) mice, the atherosclerotic lesion area was significantly decreased by 44, 38, 39, 6, or 70%, respectively, as compared to placebo-treated group, while POMo had no effect. POMf consumption reduced serum lipids, and glucose levels by 18-25%. PJ, POMxl, POMxp, POMf, or POMa consumption resulted in a significant decrement, by 53, 42, 35, 27, or 13%, respectively, in MPM total peroxides content, and increased cellular paraoxonase 2 (PON2) activity, as compared to placebo-treated mice. The uptake rates of oxidized-LDL by E (0)-MPM were significantly reduced by approximately 15% after consumption of PJ, POMxl, or POMxp. Similar results were obtained on using J774A.1 macrophage cell line. Finally, pomegranate phenolics (punicalagin, punicalin, gallic acid, and ellagic acid), as well as pomegranate unique complexed sugars, could mimic the antiatherogenic effects of pomegranate extracts. We conclude that attenuation of atherosclerosis development by some of the POM extracts and, in particular, POMf, could be related to the combined beneficial effects on serum lipids levels and on macrophage atherogenic properties.  相似文献

This study was conducted to investigate the effects of buckwheat ( Fagopyrum esculentum Moench cv. Yangjul No. 2) extract on the antioxidant activity of lipids in mouse brain and the structural change during in vitro human digestion. Buckwheat was collected from a wild farm and extracted with water. The buckwheat extracts were then passed through an in vitro human digestion model that simulated the composition of the mouth, stomach, and small intestine juice. The results confirmed that the main phenolics of buckwheat extract were rutin, quercitrin, and quercetin. The rutin content increased with digestion of the buckwheat (from 48.82 to 96.34 μg/g) and rutin standard samples (from 92.76 to 556.56 μg/g). Antioxidant activity was more strongly influenced by in vitro human digestion of both buckwheat and rutin standard. After digestion by the small intestine, the antioxidant activity values were dramatically increased (from 5.06 to 87.82%), whereas the antioxidant activity was not influenced by digestion in the stomach for both buckwheat extract and rutin standard. Inhibition of lipid oxidation of buckwheat in mouse brain lipids increased after digestion in the stomach for both buckwheat extract and the rutin standard. The major finding of this study was that in vitro human digestion may be an important modulator of the antioxidant capacity of buckwheat and that this may be because in vitro human digestion increased the antioxidative activity via an increase in antioxidants such as rutin and quercetin.  相似文献

Clementines are especially appreciated for their delicious flavor, and recent years have seen a great increase in the consumption of clementine juice. In previous decades, antioxidant compounds have received particular attention because of widely demonstrated beneficial health effects. In this work, the organoleptic, volatile flavor, and antioxidant quality of clementine juice were studied with regard to the influence on them by different juice extraction systems: plug inside fruit and rotating cylinders. The results showed that juice extracted by the former method presented higher yields and hesperidin content, which was related to higher antioxidant activity, demonstrated by ORAC and LDL assays. The organoleptic quality was not affected by the processing technique, whereas there were significant differences in the chemical flavor profile. There are important differences in chemical and functional quality between juice extraction techniques, which must be taken into account when employing processing systems to produce high-quality products.  相似文献

SDS-PAGE banding patterns of myofibrillar protein samples from turkey breast muscle with pH < or =5.8 at 15 min post-mortem (rapid glycolyzing) contained 133, 142, and 165 kDa bands that were absent in samples from carcasses with pH >6.0 at 15 min post-mortem (normal glycolyzing). These extra protein bands contained fragments of myosin as identified by Western blot analysis. Myosin fragments were also observed in protein samples from breast muscle not allowed to cool until 110 min post-mortem (delay chilled). In addition to myosin degradation, neublin degradation was more extensive in samples from rapid glycolyzing carcasses than for normal controls. Creatine kinase and glycogen phosphorylase were present in myofibrillar protein extracts of rapid glycolyzing carcasses in higher quantities than in normal controls. Results of this study provide insight into the molecular basis for previously reported reductions in meat quality of rapid glycolyzing and delay chilled turkey meat.  相似文献

Fillets of herring (Clupea harengus) were kept on ice for 0, 3, 6, and 9 days prior to storage at -18 degrees C for 0, 21, 42, 63, and 84 days. At each storage point, peroxide value (PV), absorbance at 268 nm (A(268)), fluorescent products (FP), alpha-tocopherol, glutathione peroxidase (GSH-px) activity, and ascorbic acid were measured. As shown by regression analyses, samples held for 6 days on ice formed oxidation products at the highest rate during frozen storage, followed by, for PV and FP, the 9-day samples. These data indicate that severe changes that negatively affect the oxidation process took place in the herring muscle between 3 and 6 days after catch. Both the initial antioxidant levels and the rate of antioxidant loss at -18 degrees C decreased with increased prefreezing holding time, the latter being most obvious for GSH-px activity and ascorbic acid. alpha-Tocopherol showed the largest losses and had disappeared entirely from the 6- and 9-day samples at the end of the frozen storage. Partial least-squares regression analysis of the data showed that ice storage had a greater effect than frozen storage on changes in PV, A(268), FP, alpha-tocopherol, and ascorbic acid. For GSH-px activity, frozen storage had the greatest effect.  相似文献

Loach protein hydrolysates (LPH) prepared by papain digestion were fractionated into four fractions, LPH-I (MW > 10 kDa), LPH-II (MW = 5-10 kDa), LPH-III (MW = 3-5 kDa), LPH-IV (MW < 3 kDa), and the in vitro antioxidant and antiproliferative (anticancer) activities of all fractions were determined. LPH-IV showed the lowest IC(50) value (16.9 ± 0.21 mg/mL) for hydroxyl radical scavenging activity and the highest oxygen radical scavenging capacity (ORAC) value (reaching 215 ± 5.9 mM Trolox/100 g loach peptide when the concentration was 60 μg/mL). Compared with other fractions, LPH-IV also exhibited stronger antiproliferative activity for human liver (HepG2), breast (MCF-7), and colon (Caco-2) cancer cell lines in a dose-dependent manner. When the protein concentration was 40 mg/mL, the HepG2 and MCF-7 cell proliferation of LPH-IV reached 7 and 4%, respectively, with no significant difference from those of LPH (8 and 7%, p > 0.05), with significantly less growth than those of LPH-I, LPH-II, and LPH-III, respectively (p < 0.05). The Caco-2 colon cell proliferation of LPH-IV was 12.8- and 8.7-fold smaller than those of LPH-I and LPH-II, respectively (p < 0.05). All of the fractions had a greater ability to inhibit Caco-2 colon cancer cell proliferation than to inhibit HepG2 liver cancer and MCF-7 breast cancer cell proliferation. The ORAC values of most of the fractions correlated (R(2) > 0.86, p < 0.01) with the antiproliferative activity of the three cancer cell lines, suggesting that higher antioxidant activity leads to better antiproliferative activity. However, further mechanistic and human clinical studies of the anticancer activity of loach protein hydrolysate fractions are needed.  相似文献

The oxidative modification of low-density lipoprotein (LDL) is thought to have a central role in the pathogenesis of atherogenesis. Berberine, a natural constituent of plants of the genera Coptis and Berberis, has several anti-inflammation and anticancer biological effects. However, its protective effects on LDL oxidation and endothelial injury induced by oxLDL remain unclear. In this study, we evaluated the antioxidative activity of berberine and how berberine rescues human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs) from oxidized LDL (oxLDL)-mediated dysfunction. The antioxidative activity of berberine was defined by the relative electrophoretic mobility of oxLDL, fragmentation of ApoB, and malondialdehyde production via the Cu(2+)-mediated oxidation of LDL. Berberine also inhibited the generation of ROS and the subsequent mitochondrial membrane potential collapse, chromosome condensation, cytochrome C release, and caspase-3 activation induced by oxLDL in HUVECs. Our results suggest that berberine may protect LDL oxidation and prevent oxLDL-induced cellular dysfunction.  相似文献

Oxidative modification of low-density lipoprotein (LDL) particles is a key event in the development of atherosclerosis. Oxidized LDL induces oxidative stress and modifies gene expression in endothelial cells. Berries constitute a rich dietary source of phenolic antioxidants. We found that the endemic Chilean berry Aristotelia chilensis (ach) has higher phenol content and scores better for total radical-trapping potential and total antioxidant reactivity in in vitro antioxidant capacity tests, when compared to different commercial berries. The juice of ach is also effective in inhibiting copper-induced LDL oxidation. In human endothelial cell cultures, the addition of ach juice significantly protects from hydrogen peroxide-induced intracellular oxidative stress and is dose-dependent. The aqueous, anthocyanin-rich fraction of ach juice accounts for most of ach's antioxidant properties. These results show that ach is a rich source of phenolics with high antioxidant capacity and suggest that it may have antiatherogenic properties.  相似文献

The consumption of fruits, vegetables, and whole grains rich in antioxidative phytochemicals is associated with a reduced risk of chronic diseases such as cancer, coronary heart disease, diabetes, Alzheimer's disease, cataract, and aged-related functional decline. For example, phenolic acids are among the main antioxidative phytochemicals in grains that have been shown to be beneficial to human health. Corn (Zea mays L.) is a major staple food in several parts of the world; thus, the antioxidant activity of several corn types was evaluated. The 2,2-Diphenyl-1-picryhydrazyl free radical (DPPH*) scavenging activity, total phenolic content (TPC), antioxidant capacity of lipid-soluble substances (ACL), oxygen radical absorbance capacity (ORAC), and phenolic acid compositions of typical and mutant genotypes (typical-1, waxy, typical-2, and high-amylose) were investigated. The DPPH* scavenging activity at 60 min was 34.39-44.51% in methanol extracts and 60.41-67.26% in HCl/methanol (1/99, v/v) extracts of corn. The DPPH* scavenging activity of alkaline hydrolysates of corn ranged from 48.63 to 64.85%. The TPC ranged from 0.67 to 1.02 g and from 0.91 to 2.15 g of ferulic acid equiv/kg of corn in methanol and HCl/methanol extracts, respectively. The TPC of alkaline hydrolysates ranged from 2.74 to 6.27 g of ferulic acid equiv/kg of corn. The ACL values were 0.41-0.80 and 0.84-1.59 g of Trolox equiv/kg of corn in methanol and HCl/methanol extracts, respectively. The ORAC values were 10.57-12.47 and 18.76-24.92 g of Trolox equiv/kg of corn in methanol and HCl/methanol extracts, respectively. ORAC values of alkaline hydrolysates ranged from 42.85 to 68.31 g of Trolox equiv/kg of corn. The composition of phenolic acids in alkaline hydrolysates of corn was p-hydroxybenzoic acid (5.08-10.6 mg/kg), vanillic acid (3.25-14.71 mg/kg), caffeic acid (2.32-25.73 mg/kg), syringic acid (12.37-24.48 mg/kg), p-coumaric acid (97.87-211.03 mg/kg), ferulic acid (1552.48-2969.10 mg/kg), and o-coumaric acid (126.53-575.87 mg/kg). Levels of DPPH* scavenging activity, TPC, ACL, and ORAC in HCl/methanol extracts were obviously higher than those present in methanol extracts. There was no significant loss of antioxidant capacity when corn was dried at relatively high temperatures (65 and 93 degrees C) postharvest as compared to drying at ambient temperatures (27 degrees C). Alkaline hydrolysates showed very high TPC, ACL, and ORAC values when compared to methanol and HCl/methanol extracts. High-amylose corn had a better antioxidant capacity than did typical (nonmutant) corn genotypes.  相似文献
