Abstract
Chitooligosaccharide (COS) and epigallocatechin-3-gallate (EGCG) at various concentrations were used for the preparation of COS–EGCG conjugates. The highest total phenolic content (TPC), representing the amount of EGCG conjugated, was obtained for 1 wt% COS together with EGCG at 0.5 wt% (C1-E0.5-conjugate) or 1.0 wt% (C1-E1.0-conjugate) (66.83 and 69.22 mg EGCG per g sample, respectively) (p < 0.05). The 2,2-diphenyl-1-picryl-hydrazyl-hydrate (DPPH) and 2,2′-azino-bis(3-ethylbenzothiazoline-6-sulfonic acid) (ABTS) radical scavenging activities (DRSA and ARSA, respectively) and ferric reducing antioxidant power (FRAP) of all the samples showed similar trends with TPC. The C1-E0.5-conjugate had higher DRSA, ARSA, FRAP and oxygen radical absorbance capacity (ORAC) values than COS (p < 0.05). Similarly, the antimicrobial activity of COS increased when conjugated with EGCG (p < 0.05). FTIR, 1H-NMR and 13C-NMR analyses confirmed the successful grafting of EGCG with COS. Therefore, 1 wt% COS and 0.5 wt% EGCG were used for the production of a conjugate with augmented antioxidant activity, which could be used to retard lipid oxidation of fatty foods.
Chitooligosaccharide from squid pen showed increases in both antioxidant and antimicrobial activities via conjugation with epigallocatechin-gallate (EGCG).![]()
