Comparison of Functional Constituents and Biological Activity of the Seed Extracts from Two Mulberry Fruits

Valorisation of black mulberry and grape seeds: Chemical characterization and bioactive potential

“…A substantial amount of mulberry fruits is processed into juice and juice concentrates, indeed the mulberry production in Turkey exceeded 74 thousand tons (Tomas et al, 2015). Nevertheless, industrial mulberry-juice processing is accompanied by large quantities of press cake residues (mainly constituted by seeds and skin of the fruit) which are rich in antioxidants and turns this bioresidue in a potential source of bioactives (Gültekin-Özgüven et al, 2016;Mosayebi & Tabatabaei Yazdi, 2018), such as trans-resveratrol and quercetin (Kim et al, 2010).…”

Antioxidant and Anti-Inflammatory Effects of White Mulberry (Morus alba L.) Fruits on Lipopolysaccharide-Stimulated RAW 264.7 Macrophages

“…The chemical constituents of the M. alba fruit extracts were qualitatively analyzed using UHPLC-QTOF-HRMS. In total, 20 chemical constituents were detected in the fractions of the crude extract ( Table 3 ), and all the metabolites were characterized based on the MS data, which was interpreted based on currently available literature [ 11 , 12 , 13 , 14 , 15 , 16 ]. The exact mass of the reported compounds was compared with the obtained mass data to generate the parts per million (ppm) value.…”

“…The exact masses were calculated based on the possible proton and sodium adducts under positive ionization. The structures of these compound have been identified and characterized from M. alba in previously reported studies [ 11 , 12 , 13 , 14 , 15 , 16 ].…”

“…The mass spectral analysis was performed using the MassHunter software (Agilent, Foster City, CA, USA), and the mass spectrometer conditions were as follows: ionization mode, electrospray ionization (ESI (+)); MS scan range, m / z 100–1700; nebulizer gas (N 2 ) pressure, 35 psi; dry gas (N 2 ) flow rate, 8 L/min; drying gas temperature, 225 °C; sheath gas temperature, 320 °C; capillary voltage, 3.5 kV; fragmentor voltage, 100 V; collision energy, 3.0 eV [ 63 ]. The exact mass of some of the organic compounds identified from the mass spectral data was compared with theoretical values from previous studies [ 11 , 12 , 13 , 14 , 15 , 16 ]. The significance of the obtained data was confirmed by the results calculated from the obtained and theoretical data.…”

Melanogenesis Inhibitory Activities of Mulberry Seed Ethanol Extracts

“…이러한 오디를 이용한 많은 생리활성 연구가 이 루어져 왔으나 오디씨에 대한 연구는 미비한 실정이 다. 최근 오디 와인 제조 시 획득되는 부산물인 오디씨 로부터 항산화, 항암, 항당뇨 성분인 폴리페놀 화합물 이 분리되었다 [8,9]. 하지만 오디씨로부터 멜라닌 합성 저해능은 아직 보도된 바 없다.…”
