Gamma Irradiation Induced Enhancement in Isoflavones, Total Phenol, Anthocyanin and Antioxidant Properties of Varying Seed Coat Colored Soybean

Abstract: Three Indian soybean genotypes, namely, Kalitur, Hara soya and NRC37 with black, green and yellow colored seed coat respectively were gamma irradiated at a dose of 0.5, 2.0, and 5.0 kGy. The total isoflavones and total phenol content (TPC) in all the genotypes increased significantly at a dose of 0.5 and 2 kGy respectively. The anthocyanin content was high in Kalitur, while other genotypes showed no detectable amounts of it. The hydroxyl radical scavenging activity (HRSA), DPPH free radical scavenging activity… Show more

“…An increase in antioxidant capacity compared to control was observed for cultivars BRS-213, BRS-258 and Embrapa-48 irradiated with 2 kGy (4.73%), 4 kGy (1.64%) and 8 kGy (9.06%), respectively (Table 1). Although this increase in antioxidant capacity was not significant, these results agree with Dixit et al [2] who showed that irradiation with doses of 0.5 and 2 kGy induced a progressive increase in the antioxidant capacity of the three soybean cultivars, while a decrease was observed at a dose of 5 kGy. Similarly, Popović et al [1] observed a gradual increase in antioxidant capacity when they submitted a Serbian soybean cultivar to gamma radiation with doses of 1, 2, 4 and 10 kGy.…”

“…This characteristic is mainly attributed to the presence of proteins and phytochemicals (isoflavones, tocopherol, phytosterols), compounds with an elevated antioxidant potential that prevent the formation of reactive oxygen species. Soy products are investigated as foods to reduce the risk of breast and prostate cancer, osteoporosis, cardiovascular diseases and postmenopausal symptoms, as well as serum cholesterol and triglycerides levels [2].…”

“…This recovery may have been due to the generation of certain antioxidants, because irradiation has produced antioxidants at a specific dosage. 22) The reduced DPPH radical scavenging activity of soybean oil irradiated with rays ( Fig. 4B and C) was probably the result of irradiation-induced losses of both unsaturated fatty acids (Table 3) and carotenoids, 23) both of which are known to scavenge DPPH radicals.…”

“…[48]. According to the authors, gamma-irradiated soybean genotypes showed an increase in antioxidant constituents and antioxidant properties at low doses of 0.5 kGy and 2.0 kGy, while the antioxidant effects of soy seeds either decreased or remained constant at a higher dose of 5.0 kGy.…”
