“…These phytochemicals also exhibit preventive and therapeutic potential against several life‐threatening diseases. Different studies have been reported the cardioprotective, hepatoprotective, antimicrobial, anticancer, anti‐inflammatory, antioxidant, anti‐obesity, and antidiabetic effects of phytochemicals of black beans (Aryaeian et al., 2017; Li et al., 2022; Wu et al., 2021; Zhang et al., 2020). In the following sections, various types of bioactive compounds present in black beans have been discussed in detail.…”

“…They have a significant impact on the structure of proteins, nucleic acids, carbohydrates, and lipids, altering the redox status of the cell and leading to increased oxidative stress. Free radical‐induced oxidative stress has been linked to a variety of diseases, including Parkinson's disease, multiple sclerosis, and Alzheimer's disease, diabetes mellitus, respiratory diseases (asthma), cardiovascular diseases (hypertension and atherosclerosis), rheumatoid arthritis, cataract development, various cancers (prostate, colorectal, lung, breast, and bladder cancers), and other age‐related illnesses (Li et al., 2022; Wu et al., 2021; Zhang et al., 2020).…”

Black beans (Phaseolus vulgaris L.) are most widely consumed in China, India, and America due to their unique taste and potent health benefits attributed to their higher content of phytochemicals. Researchers have extensively explored the phenolic profile and biological properties of black beans. This paper first attempt to review nutritional composition, phytochemical profile, and health‐promoting properties of black beans. Black beans are reported to exhibit potent antioxidant, antidiabetic, anticancer, anti‐cardiovascular diseases, and anti‐inflammatory properties due to the present of high level of various phytochemicals. Impacts of various processing technologies have also been extensively explored by researchers. However, the synergistic effects of black beans in combination with other food materials as final food products need to be studied in the future. This review paper will be helpful for researchers in food processing area for the development of novel black beans‐based functional food products.

“…Kumquat is a small citrus tree native to southeastern China and cultivated in several parts of the globe, such as Japan, India, Australia, the USA, Brazil, and Europe. Kumquat fruits, the smallest among all citrus fruits, are rich in nutrients and bioactive compounds, including flavonoids, phenolic acids, vitamins, and amino acids [ 28 ]. F. margarita has been used in attempts to prevent the rupture of blood vessels, reduce the fragility and permeability of blood capillaries, and slow the hardening of arteries.…”

Fruit peels might be a valuable source of active ingredients for cosmetics, leading to more sustainable usage of plant by-products. The aim of the study was to evaluate the phytochemical content and selected biological properties of hydroglycolic extracts from peels and pulps of Annona cherimola, Diospyros kaki, Cydonia oblonga, and Fortunella margarita as potential cosmetic ingredients. Peel and pulp extracts were compared for their antiradical activity (using DPPH and ABTS radical scavenging assays), skin-lightening potential (tyrosinase inhibitory assay), sun protection factor (SPF), and cytotoxicity toward human fibroblast, keratinocyte, and melanoma cell lines. The total content of polyphenols and/or flavonoids was significantly higher in peel than in pulp extracts, and the composition of particular active compounds was also markedly different. The HPLC-MS fingerprinting revealed the presence of catechin, epicatechin and rutoside in the peel of D. kaki, whereas kaempferol glucoside and procyanidin A were present only in the pulp. In A. cherimola, catechin, epicatechin and rutoside were identified only in the peel of the fruit, whereas procyanidins were traced only in the pulp extracts. Quercetin and luteolinidin were found to be characteristic compounds of F. margarita peel extract. Naringenin and hesperidin were found only in the pulp of F. margarita. The most significant compositional variety between the peel and pulp extracts was observed for C. oblonga: Peel extracts contained a higher number of active components (e.g., vicenin-2, kaempferol rutinoside, or kaempferol galactoside) than pulp extract. The radical scavenging potential of peel extracts was higher than of the pulp extracts. D. kaki and F. margarita peel and pulp extracts inhibited mushroom and murine tyrosinases at comparable levels. The C. oblonga pulp extract was a more potent mushroom tyrosinase inhibitor than the peel extract. Peel extract of A. cherimola inhibited mushroom tyrosinase but activated the murine enzyme. F. margarita pulp and peel extracts showed the highest in vitro SPF. A. cherimola, D. kaki, and F. margarita extracts were not cytotoxic for fibroblasts and keratinocytes up to a concentration of 2% (v/v) and the peel extracts were cytotoxic for A375 melanoma cells. To summarize, peel extracts from all analyzed fruit showed comparable or better cosmetic-related properties than pulp extracts and might be considered multifunctional active ingredients of skin lightening, anti-aging, and protective cosmetics.

“…In the field of food production, there is a growing interest in developing products with health-promoting ingredients, such as those with strong antioxidant capacity, to meet consumer demand for the relationship between nutrition and health [9]. Studies have shown that free radicals cause oxidative damage to lipids, proteins, and nucleic acids [10].…”

The market value of grapes (Vitis vinifera L.) is affected by their quality and harvesting time. Veraison and stage of ripening are the most important factors determining table grape quality. Therefore, the present research was performed to determine the effects of various ripening stages on the combination and postharvest quality of two red grape cultivars. Based on color change, fruits were harvested at the veraison stage, two weeks after the veraison stage, and at the full ripening stage. Fruits harvested at the fully ripe stage were stored for 7, 14, and 21 days (at 1 °C with 85–90% relative humidity). The greatest soluble solids content (SSC) (16.1%) and SSC/TA ratio were observed in ‘Khoshnav’, while the greatest titratable acidity (TA) (0.45%) and pH (3.60) were observed in ‘Rashah’. The results of the present study showed that regardless of the storage period, fruits harvested at time V (veraison time) and two weeks after veraison (2WAV) had significantly higher firmness and vitamin C content. ‘Khoshnav’ had the lowest weight loss (2.05%), and ‘Khoshnav’ and ‘Rashah’ had the greatest firmness (5.95 N) and vitamin C content (89.48 mg 100 g−1 FW). The greatest anthocyanin content was observed on day 7 of storage in ‘Rashah’. Total phenol (TP) and total flavonoid (TF) contents and antioxidant capacity (AC) increased significantly until harvest and decreased thereafter during cold storage. ‘Rashah’ showed the greatest AC, TP, and TF values. Based on the findings of this study, the ‘Rashah’ grape cultivar is shown to be rich in vitamin C, anthocyanins, flavonoids, phenolics, and antioxidants. It holds potential for utilization in both processing and breeding programs as a functional food ingredient.
