Phenolic profile, antioxidant and anti-inflammatory potential of herb and root extracts of seven selected legumes

Effect of pulse flours on the physiochemical characteristics and sensory acceptance of baked crackers

“…Broad‐bean crackers had significantly higher TPC than all other crackers, irrespective of baking time. TPC has been reported to be higher in broad‐bean extracts than yellow‐pea extract, particularly phenolic acids and flavonoids (Šibul et al ., ). Interestingly, it was found that longer baking times produced crackers with increased TPC which may be attributed to the depolymerisation of fibres during mechanical mixing and baking, releasing fibre‐associated phenolic compounds (Collar et al ., ).…”

“…These results are in agreement with those reported by Šibul et al . (), who observed the highest antioxidant activity in broad‐bean extracts compared with 6 other pulse vegetable extracts, including yellow‐pea. Longer baking times increased antioxidant activity in all crackers but results were not significant.…”

“…Total phenolic content As well as being a rich source of fibre and protein, pulses have been reported to contain a variety of polyphenolic compounds, particularly phenolic acids, flavonoids and proanthocyanidins (Carbonaro, 2011). Such compounds have demonstrated the potential to play a protective role in human health through their antioxidant, antiradical and anti-inflammatory properties (Wang et al, 2011;Sibul et al, 2016). Total phenolic content (TPC) of the baked crackers was increased following substitution of wheat flour with pulse flours (P < 0.001) ( Table 2).…”

Immature pea seeds: effect of storage under modified atmosphere packaging and sanitation with acidified sodium chlorite

“…The present results related to the significant retention of phenolic compounds and the antioxidant capacity are important, since phenolic compounds have therapeutic properties for various diseases such as diabetes, bacterial and viral infections, hypercholesterolaemia, gastrointestinal ulcers, cancer and cardiovascular diseases due to their antiradical properties …”

Targeted Metabolomics of the Phenylpropanoid Pathway in Arabidopsis thaliana using Reversed Phase Liquid Chromatography Coupled with Tandem Mass Spectrometry

“…Accurate and reliable data can be obtained by addressing and improving various avenues in LC-MS based analytical methods such as (i) chromatography, (ii) sample preparation and extraction protocols, and (iii) matrix effects. The last decade has seen many studies on profiling phenolicsparticularly the ones associated with the phenylpropanoid pathway (Meyermans et al, 2000;Chen et al, 2003;Damiani et al, 2005;Lin et al, 2009;Callipo et al, 2010;Frolov et al, 2013;Reuben et al, 2013;Ferreres et al, 2014;Eudes et al, 2015;Šibul et al, 2016). Nevertheless, these analytical methods have scope for improvement in one or more of the following: (i) canvassing a larger range of intermediates, (ii) accounting for signal suppression because of matrix effects, (iii) simplifying cumbersome extraction procedures.…”
