“…Phenolic compounds are formed in secondary metabolism of plants having functions of defense against attack of pests. Such compounds are mainly related for antioxidant activity in fruit, quality of food, potential benefits to health (Li et al, 2006;Burin et al, 2010;Karling et al, 2017;Grygorieva et al, 2018). Total phenolics were calculated using standard curve of gallic acid (O.D.…”

Investigate action of pancreatic lipase inhibition and characterization of extracts obtained from fruit pomace cultivars grown in Brazilian semiarid. Phytochemicals of Vitis labrusca, Passiflora edulis flavicarpa Deg., Citrus sinensis L Osbeck, and Punica granatum L. were extracted by maceration in a hydroethanolic solution. Inhibition activity of pancreatic lipase was performed by ELISA reader. To identify which compounds would probably be responsible for inhibitory activity, extracts were characterized by method of total phenolics using folin ciocalteau, phenolic acids and flavonoids were identified by HPLC, antioxidant potential was quantified by DPPH. With exception of pomegranate seed, all other pomace showed potential for inhibition of lipase. However, V. labrusca had higher percentage of inhibition (89.74%), this percentage similar to that obtained by commercial orlistat inhibitor, which would indicate its use as an efficient inhibitor. For all extracts were found several phytochemical compounds with phenolic characteristics, however, pomaces of P. granatum peel and V. labrusca showed best results in total phenolic and antioxidant activity. P. granatum peel had a high content of total phenolics (82.50 EAG g-1) and the best antioxidant activity (IC50 = 1.47 µg mL-1). All pomace extracts showed varied secondary metabolites, although antioxidant activity from grape and passion fruit pomaces showed potential for inhibition of lipids absorption.

“…Several studies have shown that persimmon has anti-tumor properties [ 16 , 17 ], prevents dyslipidemia [ 18 ], has anti-hypercholesterolemic, antioxidant effects [ 19 , 20 ], and antidiabetic effects [ 21 ]. These health benefits have been associated with its richness in antioxidants including vitamins, phenolic compounds, and carotenoids [ 15 , 22 ].…”

From Diospyros kaki L. (Persimmon) Phytochemical Profile and Health Impact to New Product Perspectives and Waste Valorization

et al. 2021

Persimmon (Diospyros kaki L.) fruit’s phytochemical profile includes carotenoids, proanthocyanidins, and gallic acid among other phenolic compounds and vitamins. A huge antioxidant potential is present given this richness in antioxidant compounds. These bioactive compounds impact on health benefits. The intersection of nutrition and sustainability, the key idea behind the EAT-Lancet Commission, which could improve human health and decrease the global impact of food-related health conditions such as cancer, heart disease, diabetes, and obesity, bring the discussion regarding persimmon beyond the health effects from its consumption, but also on the valorization of a very perishable food that spoils quickly. A broad option of edible products with better storage stability or solutions that apply persimmon and its byproducts in the reinvention of old products or even creating new products, or with new and better packaging for the preservation of food products with postharvest technologies to preserve and extend the shelf-life of persimmon food products. Facing a global food crisis and the climate emergency, new and better day-to-day solutions are needed right now. Therefore, the use of persimmon waste has also been discussed as a good solution to produce biofuel, eco-friendly alternative reductants for fabric dyes, green plant growth regulator, biodegradable and edible films for vegetable packaging, antimicrobial activity against foodborne methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus found in retail pork, anti-Helicobacter pylori agents from pedicel extracts, and persimmon pectin-based emulsifiers to prevent lipid peroxidation, among other solutions presented in the revised literature. It has become clear that the uses for persimmon go far beyond the kitchen table and the health impact consumption demonstrated over the years. The desired sustainable transition is already in progress, however, mechanistic studies and clinical trials are essential and scaling-up is fundamental to the future.

Fruits of Lycium possess therapeutic properties due to which they are used in traditional and folk medicine and can be used as a kind of functional food. The objective of this study was to evaluate the biochemical characterization of Lycium L. (L. barbarum L., L. chinense Mill. and L. truncatum Y. C. Wang) fruits for 16 cultivars and varieties from the collections in the M. M. Gryshko National Botanical Garden of NAS of Ukraine (Kyiv). This study was aimed at determining the concentration of nutrients in the Lycium fruits. Individual genotypes of three Lycium species: L. barbarum, L.chinense, and L. truncatum, differed in such features as the content of dry matter, sugars, vitamin C, β-carotene, acidity, and tannins in the fruit. Fruits of Lycium spp. are a valuable source of nutrients such as vitamin C (4.38–121.0 mg 100g–1 FW), β-carotene content (1.45–5.52%), and tannin (0.12–1.34%). The sugar content (13.83–20.87%) and acidity of the fruit (0.23–4.62%) meet the consumers' requirements for fresh fruit. The cultivar Amber Sweet (L. chinense) had fruits of which the similarities between biochemical characteristics of different studies genotypes were the lowest. The cv. Amber Sweet was characterized by fruit with high sugar content, very high vitamin C content, average acid content, low tannins and β-carotene content, and the lowest dry matter content. Furthermore, a distinctive feature of the other tested genotypes was the yellow colour of the fruit. The data obtained can be used for further selective work.
