Journal ArticleDOI

Antioxidant activity applying an improved ABTS radical cation decolorization assay.

TL;DR: A method for the screening of antioxidant activity is reported as a decolorization assay applicable to both lipophilic and hydrophilic antioxidants, including flavonoids, hydroxycinnamates, carotenoids, and plasma antioxidants.
Journal ArticleDOI

A review of recent studies on malondialdehyde as toxic molecule and biological marker of oxidative stress

TL;DR: The physiological origin of MDA is described, its toxicity is highlighted, and the most common methods of detection are insufficiently sensitive and disturbed by interference coming from related species or overestimation derived from stressing analysis conditions.
Journal ArticleDOI

Total Antioxidant Capacity of Plant Foods, Beverages and Oils Consumed in Italy Assessed by Three Different In Vitro Assays

TL;DR: A variety of foods commonly consumed in Italy, including 34 vegetables, 30 fruits, 34 beverages and 6 vegetable oils, were analyzed using three different assays, i.e., Trolox equivalent antioxidant capacity (TEAC), total radical-trapping antioxidant parameter (TRAP) and ferric reducing-antioxidant power (FRAP).
Journal ArticleDOI

High-level adherence to a Mediterranean diet beneficially impacts the gut microbiota and associated metabolome.

TL;DR: High-level consumption of plant foodstuffs consistent with an MD is associated with beneficial microbiome-related metabolomic profiles in subjects ostensibly consuming a Western diet, as well as higher urinary trimethylamine oxide levels in individuals with lower adherence to the MD.

Basic nutritional investigation Plant genotype affects total antioxidant capacity and phenolic contents in fruit

TL;DR: These observations suggest the importance of genotype for determining antioxidant potential and phenolic contents in fruit varieties and Variety manipulation may be a powerful tool for modifying antioxidant fruit patterns and contents.
