Involvement of Anthocyanins and other Phenolic Compounds in Radical-Scavenging Activity of Purple-Fleshed Sweet Potato Cultivars
TL;DR: In this article, the 80% ethanol extracts of 5 purple-fleshed sweet potato cultivars were separated into two fractions, anthocyanins- and phenolic compounds-rich fractions, to clarify the contribution of these constituents to the radical-scavenging activity.
Journal ArticleDOI
Polymeric procyanidins as radical-scavenging components in red-hulled rice.
TL;DR: The major components responsible for the radical scavenging in the acetone extract from red-hulled rice were identified as procyanidins by acidic hydrolysis, vanillin assay, and Sephadex LH-20 chromatography.
Journal ArticleDOI
Highly polymerized procyanidins in brown soybean seed coat with a high radical-scavenging activity.
TL;DR: In this article, the 1,1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) radical-scavenging activity of the 70% aqueous acetone extract from the seed coat of the brown soybean variety, Akita-Zairai, was investigated.
Journal ArticleDOI
Physiological Functionality of Purple-Fleshed Sweet Potatoes Containing Anthocyanins and Their Utilization in Foods
TL;DR: In this article, a study on the physiological functionality of purple-fleshed sweet potatoes and their dominant anthocyanin pigments is described, and some foods and beverages in Japan that utilize these characteristics of Anthocyanins pigments are also introduced.
