1. Optimizing the supercritical fluid extraction process of bioactive compounds from processed tomato skin by-products
Abstract A supercritical fluid extraction (SC-CO2) was used to extract high-quality oil from tomato skin by-products. The effects of pressure and extraction time on oil yield was investigated in the study. Lycopene and β-carotene content as well as p-coumaric acid, ferulic acid, caffeic acid, chlorogenic acid, vanillic acid, epicatechin, naringenin, catechi

2. Bioactive compounds and value-added applications of cupuassu (Theobroma grandiflorum Schum.) agroindustrial by-product
Abstract Cupuassu is a fruitful species from the Amazon basin with great economical potential, due to the multiple uses of its pulp and seeds in the food and cosmetic industries. This fruit generates large amounts of solid waste, which, despite of its high content of bioactive compounds, is discarded in the environment. Therefore, with the aim of reusing the

3. Minutifloroside, a New Bis-Iridoid Glucoside with Antifungal and Antioxidant Activities and Other Constituents from Palicourea minutiflora
A new bis-iridoid glucoside minutifloroside (1) was isolated from Palicourea minutiflora, together with asperuloside, (-)-epicatechin, catechin, quercetin, rutin, ursolic acid, oleanolic acid, daucosterol and two monoterpenic indole alkaloids strictosidinic acid and vincosamine. Structural characterization of the compounds was established on their spectral d

4. PERFIL METABÓLICO DOS EXTRATOS POLARES DAS FOLHAS, GALHOS E CASCAS DE Copaifera multijuga HAYNE (COPAÍBA MARI-MARI DA AMAZÔNIA) POR ESI-EM
Copaifera multijuga Hayne is the main species of the genus in the Amazon region, being exploited for copaiba oil production mainly because of its therapeutic properties. The plant parts (leaves, branches, and barks) are widely used in folk medicine. However, they are little explored in terms of chemical composition. In this study, the polar extracts of leave

6. On-Flow Ligand Screening Assay Based on Immobilized Nucleoside Diphosphate Kinase B from Homo sapiens
We describe an on-flow zonal affinity-based chromatography assay to screen ligands for the nucleoside diphosphate kinase B enzyme (NME2) from Homo sapiens. For the first time, we have covalently immobilized NME2 on the surface of an open fused silica capillary reactor (NME2-ICER) and placed the reactor before the analytical column, which resulted in a two-di

7. Physicochemical Characterization, Antioxidant Potential and Sensory Quality of Wine from Wild Edible Fruits of Flacourtia montana J. Graham
Abstract The objective of the present study was to produce wine from wild edible fruits of Flacourtia montana J. Graham. The various physicochemical attributes including total phenolic content and total flavonoid content were analyzed. Further, the prepared wine was evaluated for the antioxidant potential using four different assays, viz., 2,2'-azino-bis(3-e

8. Simultaneous liquid chromatography- tandem mass spectrometry method to quantify epicatechin and procyanidin B2 in rat plasma after oral administration of Trichilia catigua (catuaba) extract and its application to a pharmacokinetic study
Abstract Trichilia catigua A. Juss., Meliaceae, known as catuaba in Brazil, is traditionally used for the treatment of stress, sexual impotence and memory deficits. To our knowledge, there is no analytical method described in literature for simultaneous quantification of catuaba extract marker substances in biological matrices. The aim of this study was to d

9. Comparisons of the active components in four unripe raspberry extracts and their activites
Abstract Dried unripe raspberry of Rubus chingii, were prepared as the following four extracts: unpurified raspberry extract (URE), purified raspberry extract (PRE), URE after high temperature-high pressure (UPE-H, HTHP), and PRE after HTHP (PRE-H). The total polyphenolic contents (TPCs) and total flavonoid contents (TFCs) of the four extracts, as assessed b

10. Trellis systems, rootstocks and season influence on the phenolic composition of ‘Chenin Blanc’ grape
ABSTRACT: The biosynthesis of phenolic compounds might be influenced by environmental factors, such as solar radiation, temperature and relative air humidity, and production system. Some components of the production system, particularly the trellis system and rootstock, might change the phenolic composition of grapes due to microclimate of the cultivation re

11. Determination of phenolic profile by HPLC–ESI-MS/MS, antioxidant activity, in vitro cytotoxicity and anti-herpetic activity of propolis from the Brazilian native bee Melipona quadrifasciata
ABSTRACT Propolis is a rich source of bioactive molecules made by bees by collecting an infinite variety of secondary metabolites from plants. This study determined the chromatographic and mass spectrometry profile along with the biological activity of propolis produced by the native Brazilian bee Melipona quadrifasciata. A hydroalcoholic crude extract was p

12. Jabuticaba (Plinia jaboticaba) skin extracts as inhibitors of phospholipases A2 and proteases
Abstract: The phenolic extracts of jabuticaba skin flour (JSF) were characterized by HPLC, and evaluated for their modulating action upon phospholipases A2 and proteases of snake venom, aiming at their possible use in the treatment of the various diseases associated with the action of venom toxins. Two types of extracts were prepared from JSF: aqueous and me
