Chemical Profile and Biological Activities of Brassica rapa and Brassica napus ...
Serrano, Carmo; Oliveira, M. Conceição; Lopes, V. Rolim; Soares, Andreia; Molina, Adriana K.; Paschoalinotto, B.H.; Pires, Tânia C.S.P.; Serra, OctávioThis study aimed to analyse the chemical profile and biological activities of 29 accessions of Brassica rapa (turnips) and 9 of Brassica napus (turnips and seeds) collections, maintained ex situ in Portugal. HPLC-HRMS allowed the determination of glucosinolates (GLS) and polyphenolic compounds. The antioxidant and antimicrobial activities were determined by using relevant assays. The chemical profiles showed th...

Nutritional and chemical characteristics of Portuguese table tomato genotypes
Pereira, Alexis; Añibarro-Ortega, Mikel; Rocha, Filomena; Lopes, V. Rolim; Carvalho, Ana Maria; Barata, Ana Maria; Barros, Lillian; Pinela, JoséTomato (Solanum lycopersicum L.) is one the most important horticultural crops worldwide and a key component of the Mediterranean diet. Over the years, tomato selection and cultivation in small farming systems, such as homegardens, has resulted in the emergence of several varieties with distinct morphological and sensory characteristics. These varieties represent a valuable genetic diversity reservoir with bree...
Exploiting the nutritional and chemical diversity of Portuguese tomato (Solanum...
Pereira, Alexis; Añibarro-Ortega, Mikel; Rocha, Filomena; Lopes, V. Rolim; Carvalho, Ana Maria; Barata, Ana Maria; Barros, Lillian; Pinela, JoséTomato (Solanum lycopersicum L.) is the second most important vegetable crop worldwide and one of the most preferred garden crops. It is a versatile key component of the Mediterranean diet commonly associated with a reduced risk of chronic degenerative diseases due to its composition in bioactive molecules [1,2]. Throughout its evolutionary and domestication process, this species has undergone diverse genetic a...
LC-MS profiling and biological evaluation of methanolic extracts from local var...
Serrano, Carmo; Oliveira, M. Conceição; Soares, Andreia; Pereira, Carla; Dias, Maria Inês; Barros, Lillian; Dias, Ana; Lopes, V. Rolim; Barata, Ana M.The Brassica rapa spp. rapa species develops a broad, white root with thin, light green, slightly pubescent leaves. The species is consumed in Asia, Europe and North America for its nutritional benefits with low caloric value due to its low protein and lipid content, and has been used in the preparation of soups and stews. The flavor of root and leaves is slightly bitter and has been related to the degradation ...
