Journal ArticleDOI
Content of insoluble bound phenolics in millets and their contribution to antioxidant capacity.
TL;DR: The results of this study showed that soluble as well as bound fractions of millet grains are rich sources of phenolic compounds with antioxidant, metal chelating, and reducing power.
Journal ArticleDOI
Determination of antioxidant activity in free and hydrolyzed fractions of millet grains and characterization of their phenolic profiles by HPLC-DAD-ESI-MSn
TL;DR: In this article, the authors used high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) and HPLC-tandem mass spectrometry (MSn) to identify 50 phenolic compounds belonging to several classes, namely, phenolic acids and their derivatives, dehydrodiferulates and dehydrotriferulates, flavan-3-ol monomers and dimers, flavonols, flavones and flavanonols in four phenolics fractions of several whole millet grains (kodo, finger (Ravi), finger (local), foxtail, proso, little
Journal ArticleDOI
Roots and Tuber Crops as Functional Foods: A Review on Phytochemical Constituents and Their Potential Health Benefits
TL;DR: Tubers have an immense potential as functional foods and nutraceutical ingredients to be explored in disease risk reduction and wellness.
Journal ArticleDOI
Bioaccessibility and antioxidant potential of millet grain phenolics as affected by simulated in vitro digestion and microbial fermentation
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors used electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) spectroscopy to determine the bioaccessibility of five millet varieties (kodo, finger, proso, foxtail and pearl) under physiological conditions.
Journal ArticleDOI
Millet grain phenolics and their role in disease risk reduction and health promotion: A review
TL;DR: The use of millets, as nutraceuticals and specialty foods in disease risk reduction and overall health and wellness is warranted, because they are bioaccessible, possess bioactivities against several pathophysiological conditions and may serve as potential natural sources of antioxidants in food and biological systems.
