Journal ArticleDOI
Uses and properties of Citrus flavonoids
TL;DR: The antioxidant capacity of any flavonoid will be determined by a combination of the O-dihydroxy structure in the B-ring, the 2,3-double bond in conjugation with a 4-oxo function and the presence of both hydroxyl groups in positions 3 and 5.
Journal ArticleDOI
Antioxidant activity of phenolics extracted from Olea europaea L. leaves
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors identify the main phenolic compounds present in an olive leaf extract (OL) in order to delineate the differential antioxidant activities of these compounds through the extent of their abilities to scavenge the ABTS+ radical cation and clarify the structural elements conferring antioxidant capacity in aqueous systems.
Journal ArticleDOI
By-products from different citrus processes as a source of customized functional fibres
Francisco R. Marín,Cristina Soler-Rivas,O. Benavente-Garcia,Julián Castillo,José Ángel Pérez-Álvarez +4 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the chemical components of fibre (pectin, lignin, cellulose and hemicellulose), together with other compounds, such as flavonoids, were analysed in nine different industrial sources.
Journal ArticleDOI
Phenolic diterpenes, flavones, and rosmarinic acid distribution during the development of leaves, flowers, stems, and roots of Rosmarinus officinalis. Antioxidant activity.
María José del Baño,J. Lorente,Julián Castillo,O. Benavente-Garcia,José Antonio Del Río,Ana Ortuño,Karl-Werner Quirin,Dieter Gerard +7 more
TL;DR: The distribution of six compounds with three different polyphenol skeletons in Rosmarinus officinalis suggests that rosemary extracts are excellent antioxidants in both aqueous and lipid systems.
Journal ArticleDOI
Antioxidant activity and radioprotective effects against chromosomal damage induced in vivo by X-rays of flavan-3-ols (Procyanidins) from grape seeds (Vitis vinifera): comparative study versus other phenolic and organic compounds.
Julián Castillo,O. Benavente-Garcia,J. Lorente,Miguel Alcaraz,A. Redondo,A. Ortuño,J. A. Del Rio +6 more
TL;DR: The quantitative distribution of several flavan-3-ols was determined using HPLC in a grape seed extract of four cultivars grown in the region of Murcia, finding the most effective compounds were rutin > dimethyl sulfoxide > ascorbic acid > 6-n-propyl-2-thiouracil-6c > diosmin.
