Custodio-Mendoza JA, Aktaş H, Zalewska M, Wyrwisz J, Kurek MA. A Review of Quantitative and Topical Analysis of Anthocyanins in Food. Molecules 2024; 29:1735. [PMID: 38675555 PMCID: PMC11051960 DOI: 10.3390/molecules29081735] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/15/2024] [Revised: 04/09/2024] [Accepted: 04/10/2024] [Indexed: 04/28/2024] Open
Abstract
Anthocyanins, a subclass of flavonoids known for their vibrant colors and health-promoting properties, are pivotal in the nutritional science and food industry. This review article delves into the analytical methodologies for anthocyanin detection and quantification in food matrices, comparing quantitative and topical techniques. Quantitative methods, including High-performance Liquid Chromatography (HPLC) and Mass Spectrometry (MS), offer precise quantification and profiling of individual anthocyanins but require sample destruction, limiting their use in continuous quality control. Topical approaches, such as Near-infrared Spectroscopy (NIR) and hyperspectral imaging, provide rapid, in situ analysis without compromising sample integrity, ideal for on-site food quality assessment. The review highlights the advancements in chromatographic techniques, particularly Ultra-high-performance Liquid Chromatography (UHPLC) coupled with modern detectors, enhancing resolution and speed in anthocyanin analysis. It also emphasizes the growing importance of topical techniques in the food industry for their efficiency and minimal sample preparation. By examining the strengths and limitations of both analytical realms, this article aims to shed light on current challenges and prospective advancements, providing insights into future research directions for improving anthocyanin analysis in foods.

ULTRASONICS SONOCHEMISTRY 2024; 102:106744. [PMID: 38219546 PMCID: PMC10825644 DOI: 10.1016/j.ultsonch.2023.106744] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/24/2023] [Revised: 12/13/2023] [Accepted: 12/20/2023] [Indexed: 01/16/2024]
Abstract
Food waste presents a continuous challenge for the food industry, leading to environmental pollution and economic issues. A substantial amount of waste, including by-products from fruits and vegetables, non-edible food items, and other waste materials, is produced throughout the food supply chain, from production to consumption. Recycling and valorizing waste from perishable goods is emerging as a key multidisciplinary approach within the circular bio-economy framework. This waste, rich in raw by-products, can be repurposed as a natural source of ingredients. Researchers increasingly focus on biomass valorization to extract and use components that add significant value. Traditional methods for extracting these bio-compounds typically require the use of solvents and are time-consuming, underscoring the need for innovative techniques like ultrasound (US) extraction. Wastes from the processing of fruits and vegetables in the food industry can be used to develop functional foods and edible coatings, offering protection against various environmental factors. This comprehensive review paper discusses the valorization of waste from perishable items like fruits and vegetables using US technology, not only to extract valuable components from waste but also to treat wastewater in the beverage industry. It also covers the application of biomolecules recovered from this process in the development of functional foods and packaging.

Genome-Wide Identification and Expression Analysis of the SUT Family from Three Species of Sapindaceae Revealed Their Role in the Accumulation of Sugars in Fruits. PLANTS (BASEL, SWITZERLAND) 2023; 13:95. [PMID: 38202403 PMCID: PMC10780545 DOI: 10.3390/plants13010095] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/14/2023] [Revised: 12/09/2023] [Accepted: 12/20/2023] [Indexed: 01/12/2024]
Abstract
Sapindaceae is an economically important family of Sapindales and includes many fruit crops. The dominant transport and storage form of photoassimilates in higher plants is sucrose. Sucrose transporter proteins play an irreplaceable role in the loading, transportation, unloading, and distribution of sucrose. A few SUT (sugar transporter) family genes have been identified and characterized in various plant species. In this study, 15, 15, and 10 genes were identified in litchi, longan, and rambutan, respectively, via genome-wide screening. These genes were divided into four subgroups based on phylogenetics. Gene duplication analysis suggested these genes underwent potent purifying selection and tandem duplications during evolution. The expression levels of SlSut01 and SlSut08 were significantly increased in the fruits of Sapindaceae members. The homologs of these two genes in longan and rambutan were also highly expressed in the fruits. The expression pattern of SUTs in three organs of the two varieties was also explored. Subcellular colocalization experiments revealed that the proteins encoded by both genes were present in the plasma membrane. This report provides data for the functional study of SUTs in litchi and provides a basis for screening sugar accumulation-related genes in fruits of Sapindaceae.

Oliveira AS, Biano LS, Palmeira DN, de Almeida DR, Lopes-Ferreira M, Kohlhoff M, Sousa JAC, Brandão GC, Silva AMDOE, Grespan R, Camargo EA. Antinociceptive effect of Nephelium lappaceum L. fruit peel and the participation of nitric oxide, opioid receptors, and ATP-sensitive potassium channels. Front Pharmacol 2023; 14:1287580. [PMID: 38026962 PMCID: PMC10644719 DOI: 10.3389/fphar.2023.1287580] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/02/2023] [Accepted: 10/09/2023] [Indexed: 12/01/2023] Open
Abstract
Introduction: Nephelium lappaceum L. (Sapindaceae) is a plant known as rambutan. It is used for various purposes in traditional medicine. Objective: We aimed to evaluate the antinociceptive effects of the ethanol extract of the fruit peel of N. lappaceum (EENL), the mechanisms involved in these effects, and the acute toxicity in zebrafish. Methods: We performed chromatography coupled to mass spectrometry, acute toxicity assay in zebrafish, and evaluation in mice submitted to models of nociception and locomotor activity. Results: We identified (epi)-catechin, procyanidin B, and ellagic acid and its derivatives in EENL. We did not find any toxicity in zebrafish embryos incubated with EENL. The locomotor activity of mice submitted to oral pretreatment with EENL was not changed, but it reduced the abdominal constrictions induced by acetic acid, the licking/biting time in both the first and second phase of formalin testing and capsaicin testing, and carrageenan-induced paw mechanical allodynia. Oral pretreatment with EENL increased latency time in the hot plate test. This antinociceptive effect was significantly reversed by naloxone, L-arginine, and glibenclamide respectively showing the participation of opioid receptors, nitric oxide, and KATP channels as mediators of EENL-induced antinociception. Conclusion: EENL causes antinociception with the participation of opioid receptors, nitric oxide, and KATP channels, and is not toxic to zebrafish.
