TL;DR: In this article, 10 phenolic compounds were isolated from a butanol fraction of sage extracts and their structures were determined by spectral methods (NMR, MS, IR). Among them, a novel compound, 4-hydroxyacetophenone-4-O-β-d-apiofuranosyl-(1→6)-O- β-dglucopyranoside, was identified.
Journal ArticleDOI
Analysis of antioxidative phenolic compounds in artichoke (Cynara scolymus L.)
TL;DR: Two compounds, apigenin-7-rutinoside and narirutin, were found to be unique to artichoke heads, this represents the first report of these compounds in the edible portion of this plant.
Journal ArticleDOI
2,2-Diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl radical-scavenging active components from Polygonum multiflorum thunb.
TL;DR: Three compounds showing strong antioxidant activity were identified by spectral methods and by comparison with authentic samples to be gallic acid, catechin, and 2,3,5, 4'-tetrahydroxystilbene 2-O-beta-D-glucopyranoside.
Journal ArticleDOI
Cinnamon bark proanthocyanidins as reactive carbonyl scavengers to prevent the formation of advanced glycation endproducts
TL;DR: This is the first report that proanthocyanidins can effectively scavenge reactive carbonyl species and thus inhibit the formation of AGEs, which show great potential to be developed as agents to alleviate diabetic complications.
Journal ArticleDOI
Naturally occurring inhibitors against the formation of advanced glycation end-products
TL;DR: The Maillard reaction, the formation process of AGEs and harmful effects of A GEs to human health are introduced and typical effective AGE inhibitors with different inhibition mechanisms are reviewed in this paper.
