Optimization of total polyphenol extraction and flavonoid screening by mass spectrometry in mango (Mangifera indica L.) waste from Peru

Abstract

This research aims to optimize the extraction yield of total phenolic compounds (TPC) and quantify flavonoids by mass spectrometry in peel and kernel of mango (Mangifera indica L.), varieties: Edward, Kent, Haden, and Criollo from the department of Lambayeque, Peru, which resulted in eight samples. Mango peels and kernels were manually separated, frozen at -20 °C, freeze-dried, and ground (300 μm). For the extraction, the Central Composite Design was applied with the factors of ethanolic solution, time, and sample/volume ratio. The extracts determined TPCs by Folin-Ciocalteu and UV-Vis spectrophotometry expressed as gallic acid equivalent. Optimization was performed by the desirability function; Quercetin was also quantified by liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry (m/z). The highest yield of TPC content for Criollo mango kernel was obtained with 67.99% ethanolic solution, 89.94 min, and 0.343 g sample/10 mL ethanolic solution with R2 of 0.8966, and for Edward mango peel with 73.996% ethanolic solution, 58.5 min, and 0.432 g sample/10 mL ethanolic solution with R2 of 0.8020. For peel, the methanolic extract from Criollo mango peel had the highest Quercetin value at (23.28 ± 2.35 mg QE/100 g) (p < 0.05), and for kernels, in both extractions (ethanolic and methanolic), the four varieties did not present differences (p > 0.05).

Dietary fiber, polyphenols and sensory and technological acceptability in sliced bread made with mango peel flour

“…Mango peel (MP) constitutes 15% to 20% of the total weight of the fruit, and is packed with bioactive compounds such as pectin, cellulose, hemicellulose, and carotenoids (Zhang et al, 2020). Its importance lies in the potent antioxidant and therapeutic activity of these compounds, which are valuable in the food, nutraceutical, and pharmaceutical industries (León-Roque et al, 2023). Additionally, MP is a potential source of polyphenols and compounds such as flavonol O-xanthone C-glycosides, gallotannins, and derivatives of benzophenone, all with bioactive properties (Hashem et al, 2020;Sánchez-Camargo et al, 2019;Lastra Ripoll et al, 2021).…”

Analysis of polyphenols in millet and processing effects on antioxidant activity

“…Polyphenols have a strong antioxidant effect, which can benefit people's health with anti-aging and anti-tumor functions (Nazzaro et al, 2020), the research mainly focused on the extraction of polyphenols (León-Roque et al, 2023;Chavez-Santiago et al, 2022;Safdar et al, 2022a, b;Liu et al, 2022;Tran et al, 2022).Millet polyphenols in the body can resist aging directly as antioxidants (Masisi et al, 2016), and they retain bioactive properties after digestion (Gangopadhyay et al, 2015). Different processing methods will affect the antioxidant property of phenols, but there are few relevant studies.…”

Valorisation of goldenberry calyx: ultrasound-assisted extraction of phenolic compounds

“…Agricultural and food residues are the main organic waste produced worldwide, which could generate between 6 and 10% of greenhouse gas emissions (Teigiserova et al, 2020). In this context, the circular economy emerges as a strategy that seeks to mitigate the environmental impact generated by agro-industrial waste, giving it a new application in productive chains (León-Roque et al, 2023;Mesquita et al, 2023), for example, the extraction of bioactive compounds (Tirado et al, 2019).…”
