“…The presence of lipid compounds, i.e., fatty acids, fatty amides, and fatty aldehydes, was reported in two of the studies included in the review. The same studies identified aliphatic alcohols in the oak galls [19,50].…”

“…Thus, a recent study characterized 29 substances in the volatile essential oil of Q. infectoria, the majority component being (Z)-anethole (28.55%) [87]. This was also identified in Jalill's experiment [50], along with three other main components, pentadecanolide (26.44%), diethyl phthalate (6.46%), and acetoin (5.66%) [87]. In another study, Hussein et al [69] identified 12 bioactive compounds in the methanolic dried galls' extract of Q. infectoria, including phytosterols, monoterpenes, or pteridines, some of them being known for their antimicrobial, anti-inflammatory, and antitumor activities; anti-psychotic, mood-stabilizer, and anti-parasite actions; as well as estrogenic, progesterogenic, and anti-infective effects.…”

“…The largest diversity of non-phenolic molecules, i.e., a total of 34 compounds and nine elements, was reported in the study of Jalill [50], while five other studies identified 16 other non-phenolic compounds [9,19,21,34,43]. Terpenes and terpenoids were present in a larger number, i.e., 17 compounds, followed by lipid compounds, hydrocarbons, and carboxylic acids.…”

“…In the study of Jalill [50], all concentrations of Q. infectoria gall extracts decreased the mouse mammary carcinoma cell line, with IC 50 = 0.2 mg/mL. Volatile compounds, such as eucalyptol and eugenol, found in gall extracts could be responsible for this activity.…”

Quercus species have been widely used in traditional medicine, and recently, researchers’ attention has focused on galls of the genus Quercus as a source of health-promoting phytochemicals. This review presents a summary of the most recent findings on the phytochemistry and bioactivity of oak galls, following the screening of scientific papers published in two relevant databases, PubMed and Embase, between January 2018 and June 2023. The oak galls are rich in active compounds, mostly gallotannins and phenolic acids. Due to these secondary metabolites, the reviewed studies have demonstrated a wide range of biological activities, including antioxidant and anti-inflammatory actions, antimicrobial properties, tissue-protective effects, and antitumor, anti-aging, and hypoglycemic potential. Thus, oak galls are a promising natural matrix, to be considered in obtaining pharmaceutical and cosmetic preparations used in anti-aging strategies and, together with medications, in the management of age-related diseases. In further evaluations, the valuable functional properties of oak galls, reported mostly in preclinical studies, should be confirmed with clinical studies that would also take into account the potential health risks of their use.

The present study reports on the preparation of a cellulose fiber (CF) composite from D. lutescens, combined with copper oxide nanoparticles (DL@CF/CuO), to prolong the shelf life of tomatoes after harvest. The isolated cellulose fiber material was comprehensively characterized using XRD, FTIR, and FE-SEM analyses. The DLCF and DL@CF/CuO nanoparticles exhibited crystalline cellulose, as indicated by the XRD investigation. Both DLCF and DL@CF/CuO showed O-H and C-H FTIR spectra with identifiable vibrational peaks. The FE-SEM images depicted the dispersion of DL@CF/CuO-based fibers in a cellulose fiber matrix containing CuO nanoparticles. A 0.3% (wt/wt), a solution of DL@CF/CuO was coated onto the surface of early ripening tomato fruits. After a 25-day storage period at 25–29 °C and 85% RH, the results showed a significant extension in the shelf life of the tomato fruits, in line with changes in physiological properties and fruit quality. The extension of shelf life in tomato fruit epidermis treated with DL@CF/CuO was confirmed through FE-SEM analysis. L929 fibroblast cells were treated with the developed DL@CF/CuO nanocomposite, and no signs of toxicity were detected up to 75 µg/mL. Additionally, the DL@CF/CuO nanocomposite exhibited significant antifungal activity against Aspergillus flavus. In conclusion, this study provides novel insights for sustainable food security and waste control in the agricultural and food industries.

Quercus L. galls have been used in Western and Eastern cultures for various diseases in traditional medicine. Galls are also used in the East for many purposes, including consumption as food, commercial inks, leather tanning. In the current study, Andricus sternlichti Bellido, Pujade-Villar & Melika, 2003 galls were extracted in different solvents. The possible antioxidant effects of gall extracts were determined using 7 different methods (βcarotene-linoleic acid assay, Phosphomolybdenum assay, DPPH and ABTS radical scavenging activity, CUPRAC and FRAP assay, Metal Chelating activity) to support each other. Total phenolic, flavonoid and tannin amounts of extracts are calculated by using standard curves. In addition, HPLC method used to characterize the phenolic component with 15 different standards. The MIA PaCa-2 cell lines was preferred to identify possible cytotoxic activities of galls. Expression of some genes (Bax, Bcl-2, FAS, BID, caspase-3, caspase-8, caspase-9, caspase-10, FADD, TRADD) role in the apoptosis was determined to investigate apoptotic effects of extracts. According the results, the gall extracts of A. sternlichti may be considered as a potential source of biological agents for their antioxidant capacity and rich bioactive compounds. The gall extracts exhibit antiproliferative activity via regulating expressions of apoptotic genes.
