Journal ArticleDOI
Comparative antioxidant capacities of phenolic compounds measured by various tests
TL;DR: In this article, the authors compare the antioxidant capacities of standard compounds (phenolic compounds, ascorbic acid, and glutathione) as measured by various assays, including TEAC, DPPH, ORAC, resistance to haemolysis, and ESR.
Journal ArticleDOI
Evolution of antioxidant capacity during storage of selected fruits and vegetables.
Claire Kevers,Michael Falkowski,Jessica Tabart,Jean-Olivier Defraigne,Jacques Dommes,Joël Pincemail +5 more
TL;DR: The results of this study indicated that strawberries and black grapes have relatively high antioxidant capacities associated with high contents of total phenolic compounds, ascorbic acid, and flavonols, and in most fruits and vegetables storage did not affect negatively the antioxidant capacity.
Journal ArticleDOI
Concepts in plant stress physiology. Application to plant tissue cultures
Thomas Gaspar,Thierry Franck,Badia Bisbis,Claire Kevers,Laurent Jouve,Jean-Francois Hausman,Jacques Dommes +6 more
TL;DR: The hyperhydrated state of shoots and the cancerous state of cells, both induced under conditions of stress in invitro cultures, are identified and detailed, because they perfectly illustrate the stress-induced state-change concept.
Journal ArticleDOI
Hyperhydricity of micropropagated shoots: a typically stress-induced change of physiological state
TL;DR: An appraisal of the redox capacities of hyperhydrated shoots together with a study of some enzymic activities that catalyse pentose phosphate and glycolytic pathways has indeed shown that such shoots have evolved towards a temporary state of lower differentiation or a juvenile state with a sufficient activity to survive and to defend themselves.
Journal ArticleDOI
Optimisation of extraction of phenolics and antioxidants from black currant leaves and buds and of stability during storage
Jessica Tabart,Claire Kevers,Arnaud Sipel,Joël Pincemail,Jean-Olivier Defraigne,Jacques Dommes +5 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the extraction of phenolics and antioxidant compounds from black currant was optimised for different plant organs, and the extraction solvent affected yield: aqueous acetone was better than methanol and acetate or glycine buffer.
