Olive mill wastes: Biochemical characterizations and valorization strategies

TL;DR: In this article, the authors highlight on the treatment approaches and valorization options for dealing with olive mill waste residues, predominantly those allowing for the recovery of valuable natural components such as phenolic compounds, dietary fibers, animal feed, biofuel, biogaz, enzymes, polymers and other.

Verbascoside — A review of its occurrence, (bio)synthesis and pharmacological significance

TL;DR: Verbascoside is a phenylethanoid glycoside that was first isolated from mullein but is also found in several other plant species as mentioned in this paper, including genetically transformed roots.

Recovery and concentration of polyphenols from olive mill wastewaters by integrated membrane system

TL;DR: This work analysed the potentialities of an integrated membrane system for the recovery, purification and concentration of polyphenols from olive mill wastewater (OMW) and the performance of both processes was compared in terms of evaporation fluxes.

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

Structure-antioxidant activity relationships of flavonoids and phenolic acids

TL;DR: The factors underlying the influence of the different classes of polyphenols in enhancing their resistance to oxidation are discussed and support the contention that the partition coefficients of the flavonoids as well as their rates of reaction with the relevant radicals define the antioxidant activities in the lipophilic phase.

The Chemistry behind Antioxidant Capacity Assays

TL;DR: This analysis suggests that the total phenols assay by FCR be used to quantify an antioxidant's reducing capacity and the ORAC assay to quantify peroxyl radical scavenging capacity, to comprehensively study different aspects of antioxidants.

Flavonoids as Antioxidants

TL;DR: This review presents the current knowledge on structural aspects and in vitro antioxidant capacity of most common flavonoids as well as in vivo antioxidant activity and effects on endogenous antioxidants.

A Novel Method for Measuring Antioxidant Capacity and its Application to Monitoring the Antioxidant Status in Premature Neonates

TL;DR: The method has been applied to investigate the total plasma antioxidant capacity of neonates and how this may be compromised in prematurity, and an antioxidant ranking was established based on their reactivity relative to a 1.0 mmol/l Trolox standard.
