Anthocyanins can be extracted via various methods, and each has pros and cons. OBJECTIVE: This current study reported the optimal conditions for the ultrasonic-assisted enzymatic extraction of blueberry anthocyanins simulated using response surface methodology (RSM) coupled with a genetic algorithm (GA). METHODS: The Box–Behnken design (BBD) was used for the RSM, and the extraction conditions were as follows: temperature, 42°C; ultrasonic power, 310 W; enzyme volume, 0.25% ; and extraction time, 42 min. RESULTS: The maximum predicted extraction yield was 6.67 mg/g. The antioxidant activity of anthocyanins extracted via RSM and GA was based on the hydroxyl free radical activity and supersonic anion free radical activity of 230.50±12.76μg/ml and 4.41±0.36μg/ml, respectively. Anthocyanins exracted by the proposed method has stronger free radical removal capacity than that of Vc. CONCLUSIONS: This study shows that the combination of RSM with GA represents an optimized method for extracting blueberry anthocyanins for use in the food industry. This method can maintain high antioxidant potential and can be used as an alternative strategy for high-value products.","PeriodicalId":15194,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Berry Research","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.7,"publicationDate":"2023-04-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"46178396","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"农林科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

A Box–Behnken design of response surface methodology was employed to further optimize microwave-assisted extraction setting for grape seed total flavonoids (GSFE). In addition, the extract (GSFE) of total flavonoids obtained were refined through AB-8 macroporous resin for obtaining more pure flavonoid (GSFP) with determination of their in vitro hypoglycemic activity and antioxidant activity. The results indicated that following optimized extraction conditions were achieved: ethanol concentration 50% liquid-solid ratio 21:1 mL/g, microwave power 540 W, microwave time 126 s. Below mentioned conditions, the extraction yield reached an average experimental value (1.979 mg/g), representing 1.69 times higher than that of water extraction (1.17 mg/g). In contrast to GSFE, the purity of GSFE after purification (GSFP) exhibited a high degree of purity at 13.753 mg/g, representing nearly 2.50 times that of GSFE (3.926 mg/g). GSFP possessed high α-glucosidase and α-amylase inhibitory activities as well as DPPH and ABTS + free radical scavenging activities with an IC50 value of 0.00641, 0.0257, 0.0669 and 0.0708 mg/mL, inferior to that of GSFE (0.0514, 0.186, 0.129 and 0.223 mg/g). Within present work, the microwave technique for extraction of total flavonoids from grape seeds was investigated with an efficient and cost-effective extraction method. Total flavonoids of grape seeds have certain in vitro blood glucose and antioxidant activity, and the purified total flavonoid biological activity has improved, laying the foundation for further study of its pharmacological activity.","PeriodicalId":15194,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Berry Research","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.7,"publicationDate":"2023-04-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"42095563","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"农林科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

OBJECTIVE: This study was carried out to evaluate the effects of different N/K ratios of nutrient solution on yield, some biochemical characteristics, macro-, and micronutrient concentrations, absorption, and translocation factor in strawberry ‘Camarosa’. METHODS: Three concentration levels of K (200, 250, and 300 mg l–1, using KNO3, KCl, and K2SO4) and two concentration levels of N (120 and 180 mg l–1, using NH4H2PO4, Ca(NO3)2, and KNO3) were applied during two vegetative and reproductive growth stages. RESULTS: The results showed that the highest productivity (149.05 g/plant), soluble sugars, and starch content were obtained from plants which had received a K/N ratio of 200/180 and 300/120 mg l–1 during the vegetative and reproductive stages, respectively. Plants treated with the highest K and N concentrations (300 and 180 mg l–1, respectively) during the vegetative and reproductive stages had the highest leaf area, photochemical efficiency of photosystem II (Fv/Fm), as well as shoot and root dry weight. High N and low K concentration in the nutrient solution increased concentrations of N, Ca, Mg, Mn, and Zn while decreased K and Fe concentrations. In addition, higher N levels increased the uptake of N, P, K, Ca, Mg, Mn, and Zn. At a K/N ratio of 200/120 mg l–1, the translocation factor of N decreased, while the translocation factor of K and Mg increased.

RESULTS: No toxicity was found. Tau expression was lower in nematodes treated with 500 and 1000μg/mL. All treatments induced higher lifespan than control. Lipofuscin expression was higher in old nematodes and the treatments led to a lower expression in young and old animals. Redox biology markers were improved by strawberry treatment in young and old animals, but the best results were found for different dosages depending on age. CONCLUSIONS: Romina cultivar presented promising effects concerning tau-related AD and longevity.

RESULTS: Fruit from late-opening flowers on lateral racemes of “Brightwell” ripened earlier than fruit from early-opening flowers on terminal racemes. This may be associated with the higher levels of giberellin 1, abscisic acid (ABA), salicylic acid, jasmonic acid, phosphorus, iron and boron in the early developmental stages, and the higher ABA level and lower giberellin 9 level in the fruit ripening stages on lateral racemes, compared with on terminal racemes.

But this fruit is highly perishable and difficult to store and transport. Currently, to increase their shelf life, blueberries are often processed into a variety of products. For example, drying is the most frequently processing method. However, the effect of the drying process on flavor and quality remains unexplored. OBJECTIVE: In this study, blueberries were hot air dried at 50, 60, 70, and 80°C. The effect of different drying temperatures on blueberries’ flavor substances and quality, including moisture content, color, reducing sugar, and free amino acids, were investigated. RESULTS: The results demonstrated a significant reduction in the moisture, reducing sugar, and free amino acid contents in dried blueberry products with the drying temperature(P < 0.05). In addition, 50°C significantly promoted the formation of free amino acids, linalool and, α-terpineol crucial flavor components present in blueberries (P < 0.05). Furthermore, minimum thermal damage was observed. In the flavor principal component analysis, the blueberry samples dried at 50°C were the closest to the raw material among all the temperatures tested. Therefore, 50 °C was more suitable for blueberries hot air drying and maintaining the high-quality.

Only a few studies have examined the impact of black chokeberry polyphenols present in different matrices on human gut microbiota, and in fact none have examined encapsulated black chokeberry polyphenols. OBJECTIVE: The objective of this study was to evaluate the effect of black chokeberry polyphenols in pulp, extract and encapsulate (in a maltodextrin:gum Arabic polymer system) on human gut microbiota and fecal short-chain and branched-chain fatty acids (SCFA and BCFA, respectively). METHODS: The effect of black chokeberry polyphenols on gut microbiota was tested in a validated, dynamic in vitro model of the colon (TIM-2) for 24 h by applying five different interventions (Pulp, Extract, Encapsulate, Encapsulate control, SIEM) to the standardized microbiota from five healthy donors. RESULTS: We observed that the fermentation of black chokeberry polyphenols in the in vitro colon model (TIM-2) resulted in shifts in the standardized microbiota and differentiation in the extent of the production of SCFA and BCFAs. Synergy between maltodextrin+gum Arabic+polyphenols resulted in an increase in the relative abundances of some health-promoting taxa and decrease in the disease related taxa Alistipes. Encapsulation increased the SCFA production and decreased the BCFA production in the lumen. CONCLUSIONS: Although encapsulation of polyphenols may provide a robust way for their protection, their effect on the gut microbiota should be further investigated both by using different coating materials and with in vivo studies.","PeriodicalId":15194,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Berry Research","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.7,"publicationDate":"2022-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"47042816","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"农林科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
