Phenolic compounds and related enzymes as determinants of quality in fruits and vegetables
TL;DR: In this paper, different factors affecting phenolic-related food quality are reviewed, including internal and environmental factors, technological treatments applied during postharvest storage of fruits and vegetables, as well as processing and storage of the processed products.

The phenolic compounds of olive oil: structure, biological activity and beneficial effects on human health.
Elisa Tripoli,Marco Giammanco,Garden Tabacchi,Danila Di Majo,Santo Giammanco,Maurizio La Guardia +5 more
TL;DR: This review focuses on recent works analysing the relationship between the structure of olive oil polyphenolic compounds and their antioxidant activity, which is related to the development of atherosclerosis and cancer, and to anti-inflammatory and antimicrobial activity.
Journal ArticleDOI
Oleuropein in olive and its pharmacological effects
TL;DR: The present review focuses on recent works that have analyzed the relationship between the major phenolic compound oleuropein and its pharmacological activities including antioxidant, anti-inflammatory,anti-atherogenic,Anti-cancer activities, antimicrobial activity, antiviral activity, hypolipidemic and hypoglycemic effect.

Bioactivity and analysis of biophenols recovered from olive mill waste.
Hassan K. Obied,Malcolm S. Allen,Danny R. Bedgood,Paul D. Prenzler,Kevin Robards,Regine Stockmann +5 more
TL;DR: The phenolic profile of OMW is complex, yet this complexity has not been fully exploited in the valorization of the waste, and most work on the bioactivity of O MW has focused on antioxidant and antimicrobial activities.

Dietary antioxidant flavonoids and risk of coronary heart disease: the Zutphen Elderly Study.
TL;DR: Flavonoids in regularly consumed foods may reduce the risk of death from coronary heart disease in elderly men and showed an inverse relation with incidence of myocardial infarction.
Journal ArticleDOI
Intake of potentially anticarcinogenic flavonoids and their determinants in adults in the Netherlands
TL;DR: The use of new analytic technology suggests that in the past flavonoid intake has been overestimated fivefold, but on a milligram-per-day basis, the intake of the antioxidant flavonoids still exceeded that of the antioxidants beta-carotene and vitamin E.

Dietary Flavonoids, Antioxidant Vitamins, and Incidence of Stroke: The Zutphen Study
TL;DR: In this paper, the hypothesis that dietary antioxidant vitamins and flavonoids account for this observation was investigated in a prospective study, where a cohort of 552 men aged 50 to 69 years was examined in 1970 and followed up for 15 years.

Simple and hydrolyzable phenolic compounds in virgin olive oil. 1. Their extraction, separation, and quantitative and semiquantitative evaluation by HPLC
TL;DR: In this article, the extractive and HPLC methods of analysis are examined and some modifications are presented by means of these techniques, elenolic acid and four unknown compounds having phenolic behavior were separated from virgin olive oil.

Free Radical-Scavenging Properties of Olive Oil Polyphenols
TL;DR: This work has investigated the scavenging actions of some olive oil phenolics, namely hydroxytyrosol and oleuropein, with respect to superoxide anion generation, neutrophils respiratory burst, and hypochlorous acid, and indicates that both compounds are potent scavengers of superoxide radicals and inhibitors of neutrophil respiratory burst.
