“…abbreviate and C. babylonica) were analyzed for their fatty acids composition and although the major compounds were similar to all the species (linoleic, palmitic, linoleic and α-linolenic acid) significant differences in fatty acids profile were observed. Similarly, Erdogan et al [87] and Tekeli et al [88,89] studied the aerial parts of various endemic to Turkey Centaurea species and reported a significant variation in the fatty acids profile. Finally, apart from leaves the flowers of some Centaurea species are edible presenting a different fatty acids profile compared to leaves [90,91].…”

Centaurea raphanina subsp. mixta (DC.) Runemark is a wild edible species endemic to Greece. This study evaluated the chemical composition and bioactive properties of wild and cultivated C. raphanina subsp. mixta plants. Wild plants had higher nutritional value than cultivated ones, whereas cultivated plants contained more tocopherols. Glucose and sucrose were higher in cultivated plants and trehalose in wild ones. Oxalic and total organic acids were detected in higher amounts in cultivated samples. The main fatty acids were α-linolenic, linoleic and palmitic acid, while wild plants were richer in polyunsaturated fatty acids. Two pinocembrin derivatives were the main phenolic compounds being detected in higher amounts in wild plants. Regarding the antioxidant activity, wild and cultivated plants were more effective in the oxidative haemolysis (OxHLIA) and thiobarbituric acid reactive substances (TBARS) assays, respectively. Moreover, both extracts showed moderate cytotoxicity in non-tumor cell lines (PLP2), while cultivated plants were more effective against cervical carcinoma (HeLa), breast carcinoma (MCF-7) and non-small lung cancer (NCI-H460) cell lines. Finally, wild plants showed higher antimicrobial activity than cultivated plants against specific pathogens. In conclusion, the cultivation of C. raphanina subsp. mixta showed promising results in terms of tocopherols content and antiproliferative effects, however further research is needed to decrease oxalic acid content.

This study was focused on the analysis of the phenolic content, fatty acid composition, volatile compounds and antioxidant activity of methanol extract from Centaurea urvillei subsp. stepposa. The antioxidant capacity were detected as 43.35 mg TEs/g, 52.18 mg TEs/g and 98.78 mg TEs/g for DPPH, FRAP and CUPRAC, respectively. Chlorogenic acid and apigenin were the major phenolic components in the extract. Linoleic acid (49.54 %) was the predominant fatty acid in the oil. 1, 3-cyclooctadiene (25.08 %) was major components in the essential oil. The study concluded that Centaurea urvillei subsp. stepposa can be used as a source of natural antioxidants for food and pharmacological industry.

“…This shows that seed oil and plant aerial parts oil compositions differ in Centaurea species. In a recent study, it has been reported that oleic acid levels varied from 3.4% to 25.12% in six different Centaurea species' arial parts [35]. Oleic and linoleic acid intake have been encouraged by nutritionists and the medical professions because of their ability to lower blood cholesterol levels [36].…”

Aims: The aim of this study was to determine and compare the potential of Centaurea albonitens and Centaurea balsamita seeds as alternative raw materials for edible oil production and natural antioxidant sources. Study Design: C. balsamita and C. albonitens were harvested from the district of Van province during harvest-maturity period in August-September 2017. The plants were identified by a biologist, Prof. Dr. Murat ÜNAL. The Voucher specimens (B5495, MÜ68611) were deposited at the Virtual Herbarium of Lake Van Basin, Van Yüzüncü Yil University, Faculty of Education. Place and Duration of Study: The study was carried out between June 2017 - January 2019 in Yüzüncü Yıl University, Faculty of Engineering, Food Engineering Department laboratory. Methodology: This study consists of two parts. In the first part, crude oil, moisture, ash, protein content, total phenolic content (TPC), volatile components and antioxidant activities of Centaurea albonitens and Centaurea balsamita seeds were determined. In the second part, fatty acid compositions, tocopherol contents, peroxide values (PV), free fatty acidity (FFA) and color values of seed oils obtained by cold extraction were determined. Results: The antioxidant capacities were determined by the 2,2-diphenylpicrylhydrazyl (DPPH) and the 2,2′-azinobis-(3-ethylbenzothiazoline-6-sulfonic acid) (ABTS) assays. Results were 26.60 and 27.12%, and 80.61 and 95.99 mmol Trolox eq/g for C. balsamita and C. albonitens seeds, respectively. The total phenolic content of the seeds were determined to be 9019 and 11501 mg GAE/kg, respectively. The average α-tocopherol content were found to be 1186 and 1689 mg/kg oil. Oil yields of the seeds were found to be 19.36 and 17.65 %, for C. balsamita and C. albonitens seeds, respectively. In fatty acid profiles; linoleic, oleic, palmitic and stearic acids were determined as the most dominant fatty acids. 22 volatile compounds were detected in C. balsamita seed while this was 26 volatile compounds in C. albonitens seed. Conclusion: In this study, it was concluded that C. albonitens and C. balsamita seeds may be considered as alternative raw materials for edible oil production, and these seeds can be used in the formulation of functional foods due to their high level of α-tocopherol, natural antioxidants and polyunsaturated fatty acids.
