The influence of electron beam (e-beam) irradiation upon anhydrous and hydrated quercetin
The quercetin belongs to natural flavonoid group found in plant pigment. It is well known their antioxidant proprieties and potential health benefits. By the other hand, the high energy electron beam processing is in trend for their usage in food preserve, sterilisation or material processing. The objective of this paper is to assess the impact of high energy electron beam irradiation on two flavonoids such as anhydrous and hydrated quercetin in solid state. The samples were irradiated to high energy electron beam up to 400 kGy, to investigate the physicochemical characteristics of the compounds. The studied compounds present biochemical importance (anhydrous quercetin, QA and quercetin hydrated, QH), and dehydration, fusion and decomposition processes arising from heating were revealed from the recorded thermal profiles in the temperature range (30–900)°C, using a coupled thermogravimetry (TG) and differential scanning calorimetry (DSC). Morphology of these compounds was observed by scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and microstructural identification by the X-ray diffraction analyses (XRD). In the range of doses up to 50 kGy, quercetin was found to show high radiochemical stability. A complex characterisation and discussion about high energy electron beam irradiation effects upon the physicochemical properties and thermal stability of studied quercetins was performed.
期刊介绍:
Radiation Physics and Chemistry is a multidisciplinary journal that provides a medium for publication of substantial and original papers, reviews, and short communications which focus on research and developments involving ionizing radiation in radiation physics, radiation chemistry and radiation processing.
The journal aims to publish papers with significance to an international audience, containing substantial novelty and scientific impact. The Editors reserve the rights to reject, with or without external review, papers that do not meet these criteria. This could include papers that are very similar to previous publications, only with changed target substrates, employed materials, analyzed sites and experimental methods, report results without presenting new insights and/or hypothesis testing, or do not focus on the radiation effects.
