Valorization of Solanum melongena L. crop by-products: phenolic composition and...
Añibarro-Ortega, Mikel; Dias, Maria Inês; Petrović, Jovana; Núñez, Sonia; Calhelha, Ricardo C.; Costa, Eduardo M.; Machado, M.; Pintado, ManuelaThis study explored the valorization of post-harvest eggplant aerial parts as a sustainable source of value-added ingredients by investigating their phenolic composition and in vitro bioactive properties. HPLC-DAD-ESI/MSn analysis identified chlorogenic acid derivatives as the predominant phenolic compounds (53 % of the phenolic fraction), followed by O-glycosylated kaempferol and quercetin. The extract display...
Nutrients, Phytochemicals, and In Vitro Biological Activities of Goldenberry (P...
Añibarro-Ortega, Mikel; Dias, Maria Inês; Petrović, Jovana; Mandim, Filipa; Núñez, Sonia; Soković, Marina; López, Víctor; Barros, Lillian; Pinela, JoséThis study provides a comprehensive characterization of Physalis peruviana L., covering the nutritional composition of the fruit and the phytochemical profiles and in vitro bioactive properties of berry and calyx extracts. The fresh fruit stood out as a source of dietary fiber (5.16 g/100 g) and is low in fat (0.49 g/100 g). A 100-g serving also contained notable amounts of ascorbic acid (32.0 mg), tocopherols ...

Phenolic composition and in vitro bioactive and enzyme inhibitory properties of...
Añibarro-Ortega, Mikel; López, Víctor; Núñez, Sonia; Petrović, Jovana; Mandim, Filipa; Barros, Lillian; Soković, Marina; Ferreira, Isabel C.F.R.The phenolic composition and bioactive properties of Holland and Italian bell pepper plant (Capsicum annuum L.) hydroethanolic extracts were investigated by HPLC-DAD-ESI/MS and in vitro cell- and enzyme-based assays, respectively. O-Glycosylated luteolin derivatives were identified as the major compounds, representing -60% of the phenolic fraction. Both extracts displayed remarkable antioxidant activity and abi...
Flowers of allium cepa l. as nutraceuticals: phenolic composition and anti-obes...
Moliner, Cristina; Núñez, Sonia; Casedas, Guillermo; Valero, Marta Sofia; Dias, Maria Inês; Barros, Lillian; López, Víctor; Gomez-Rincon, CarlotaAllium cepa L., commonly known as onion, is one of the most-consumed vegetables. The benefits of the intake of its bulb are well studied and are related to its high polyphenol content. The flowers of onions are also edible; however, there are no studies about their biological properties. Our aim was to determine the polyphenolic profile and assess the antioxidant and anti-obesity capacity of an ethanolic extrac...
