“…Similarly, Nasar‐Abbas et al (); Siah, Konczak, Wood, Agboola, and Blanchard (); and Siah et al () investigated only one, two, and three varieties, respectively. On the other hand, a number of studies have profiled the variation in antioxidant constituents of faba beans varieties in Europe (Valente et al, ; Valente et al, ), Africa (Chaieb, González, López‐Mesas, Bouslama, & Valiente, ), and South America (Baginsky et al, ).…”

There is growing interest in pulses such as faba bean for the development of foods with enhanced nutrition, functionality, and health benefits. In this study, seed material from 10 faba bean varieties, grown in replicated field trials in South Australia over consecutive seasons (2016 and 2017), were analysed for ferric reducing antioxidant potential, total phenolics, and total monomeric anthocyanins. Differences in the macrochemical composition of varieties was investigated using attenuated total reflectance mid-infrared spectroscopy. The mean ferric reducing antioxidant potential of the varieties ranged from 237 to 531 mg trolox equivalents 100 g −1 ; the total phenolics from 258 to 571 mg gallic acid equivalents 100 g −1 ; and the total monomeric anthocyanins from 12.7 to 21.0 mg cyanidin-3-glucoside equivalents 100 g −1 . Statistically significant variances in all three measures were found between varieties.Attenuated total reflectance Fourier transformed mid-infrared spectroscopy was found to provide a rapid assessment of the phytochemical composition of the samples. Partial least squares discriminant analysis was able to classify samples by growing year with reasonable accuracy (>87%). There is significant variation in the antioxidant, phenolic, and anthocyanin contents between Australian faba bean varieties. Mid-infrared spectroscopy may prove to be a valuable screening tool for breeders and researchers in the future.

Scope To identify reliable biomarkers of food intake (BFIs) of pulses. Methods and results A randomized crossover postprandial intervention study is conducted on 11 volunteers who consumed lentils, chickpeas, and white beans. Urine and serum samples are collected at distinct postprandial time points up to 48 h, and analyzed by LC‐HR‐MS untargeted metabolomics. Hypaphorine, trigonelline, several small peptides, and polyphenol‐derived metabolites prove to be the most discriminating urinary metabolites. Two arginine‐related compounds, dopamine sulfate and epicatechin metabolites, with their microbial derivatives, are identified only after intake of lentils, whereas protocatechuic acid is identified only after consumption of chickpeas. Urinary hydroxyjasmonic and hydroxydihydrojasmonic acids, as well as serum pipecolic acid and methylcysteine, are found after white bean consumption. Most of the metabolites identified in the postprandial study are replicated as discriminants in 24 h urine samples, demonstrating that in this case the use of a single, noninvasive sample is suitable for revealing the consumption of pulses. Conclusions The results of the present untargeted metabolomics work reveals a broad list of metabolites that are candidates for use as biomarkers of pulse intake. Further studies are needed to validate these BFIs and to find the best combinations of them to boost their specificity.

“…Moreover, the authors showed how the agro‐industrial by‐products could potentially be utilized as a promising source of bioactive ingredients to design new functional foods and nutraceuticals with a valuable future market (Santini, Novellino, Armini, & Ritieni, 2013). Also, Valente et al (2019, 2018) investigated the phytocompounds and antioxidant molecules in seed and pods of European varieties and cultivars of V. faba .…”

The plants belonging to the genus Vicia are of great interest as a source of many bioactive compounds and micronutrients. A snapshot of their cultivation, habitat, main components, from which essential oils can be obtained, is given. The traditional medicinal uses of Vicia plants are also reported, as well as the wide spectrum of the main biological activities attributed to Vicia plants is discussed regarding potential health beneficial properties, in particular anti‐Parkinson, anticholinesterase, antidepressant, anticonvulsant, antimicrobial, cytotoxic, antioxidant, antiinflammatory and antinociceptive, antidiabetic, antihemolytic, anticoagulant, estrogenic, diuretic, antihypoxic activities.
