Frequently Asked Questions (11)
Q2. What is the promising biomarker of recent apple intake?
The limited number of observational and human intervention studies available suggests that urinary excretion of phloretin and phloretin 2′-glucuronide are the most promising candidate biomarkers of recent apple intake [17, 41, 42].
Q3. What is the name of the allyl alkoxybenzene?
Eugenol is an allyl alkoxybenzene present in a variety of food sources, such as spices, herbs, banana, and orange, and has been recovered in glucuronidated and sulfated form in healthy subjects [71].
Q4. How did Nieman et al. detect arbutin metabolites in human plasma?
By applying an untargeted metabolomics approach, Nieman et al. [64] detected arbutin metabolites in human plasma samples after pear intake in a cross-over, randomized, controlled trial.
Q5. What is the promising biomarker of apple intake?
To conclude, the urinary excretion of phloretin glucuronide or of phloretin measured after sample hydrolysis can be considered as the most promising specific biomarker of apple intake.
Q6. What is the common form of anthocyanins in fruit?
In fruit, anthocyanins usually exist as a complex mixture of conjugates with various sugars, hydroxycinnamates, and organic acids in proportions varying with the degree of fruit ripening.
Q7. What was the process of identifying and characterization of potential biomarkers?
For each potential biomarker identified, a secondary search allowed to retrieve relevant information to assess the quality of the individual biomarkers, regarding their specificity, their pharmacokinetics, dose-responserelationship, the robustness, and reliability of their method of analysis, in order to qualify their use as BFIs according to the validating scheme established by Dragsted et al. [15].
Q8. What compounds were retained as possible BFIs for pear?
Based on this very limited information, the only compounds that were retained as possible BFIs for pear were arbutin and hydroquinone sulfate.
Q9. What is the advantage of the analysis of urine after the intake of the fruit?
In this regard, the analysis of urine after the intake of the fruit would offer an advantage over the study of plasma, as performed on both studies reviewed in this section.
Q10. How much is phloretin glucuronide in pear juice?
The concentration of this glycosylated hydroquinone ranges from 40 to 150 mg/l in pear juice and 6–113mg/kg in fresh pear pulp [68].
Q11. What is the maximum concentration of phloretin in plasma?
the maximum concentration reached in plasma after high intake of apple is very low (nmol/L range) suggesting that phloretin would be difficult to quantify for low to moderate apple intakes.
