First comprehensive phenolic profiling and antioxidant assessment of red seaweed (Mazzaella japonica) using cold plasma-treated water
Red seaweeds are emerging sources of phenolics with potential health benefits. This study presents the first detailed phenolic and antioxidant analysis of Mazzaella japonica using cold plasma-treated water (CPTW) as a green extraction medium. Free, esterified, and insoluble-bound phenolics were extracted following CPTW exposure (10, 20, and 30 min), and individual compounds were identified using HPLC-QTOF-MS/MS. CPTW treatment significantly enhanced phenolic extraction up to 20 min, particularly in the free fraction, while esterified and insoluble-bound fractions declined, suggesting cell wall disruption and hydrolysis promoted phenolic release into the free form. A total of 27 phenolic compounds, mainly phenolic acids, flavonoids, and several phlorotannins, were identified for the first time in M. japonica. Extracts exhibited strong antioxidant activity, especially in the 20-min free fraction, in both chemical assays and Caco-2 cell models. CPTW is a promising, eco-friendly technique to recover functional phenolics from seaweeds for nutraceuticals or other value-added applications.
