Heliyon 2023; 9:e21944. [PMID: 38034630 PMCID: PMC10682200 DOI: 10.1016/j.heliyon.2023.e21944] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/19/2023] [Revised: 10/28/2023] [Accepted: 10/31/2023] [Indexed: 12/02/2023] Open
Abstract
We know that heat shock can activate the functional components in soybeans, but we don't know the type, level, and duration of heat shock for maximum activation. To address this, the present study investigated the changes in functional components like polyphenols, antioxidants, and isoflavones in soybeans at various temperature levels and durations with their respective functionality or health benefits. For this, treated seed samples were extracted with 70 % ethanol. Heat shock at 60 °C for 2 h increased polyphenol content (60.67 % of control) and antioxidant activity for both ABTS (41.14 % of control) and DPPH (217.72 % of control). This also increased the beneficial aglycone form of isoflavones that includes daidzein (8.36-fold of control), glycitein (3.85-fold of control) and genistein (20.50-fold of control) but decreased the harmful β-glucoside form (3.65-fold) including daiazin (1.84-fold of control); glycitin (1.45-fold of control) and genistin (23.88-fold of control) over untreated dry seed. This may happen because of the conversion of conjugated β-glucoside isoflavones to their aglycone forms that have various health benefits. Maximum inhibition of NO production in RAW 264.7 cells was achieved by samples elicited for 2 h with 300 μg/mL concentration. This sample also confirmed the maximum anti-obesity activity treated against 3-T-3L1 cells. This study summarized that heat shock at 60 °C for 2 h increased polyphenols, antioxidants, and aglycon isoflavone in soybeans resulting in increased anti-inflammatory and anti-obesity activity.

Kim JH, Duan S, Park YR, Eom SH. Tissue-Specific Antioxidant Activities of Germinated Seeds in Lentil Cultivars during Thermal Processing. Antioxidants (Basel) 2023; 12:antiox12030670. [PMID: 36978918 PMCID: PMC10045596 DOI: 10.3390/antiox12030670] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/31/2023] [Revised: 02/25/2023] [Accepted: 03/07/2023] [Indexed: 03/11/2023] Open
Abstract
Nongerminated seeds (NGS) and germinated seeds (GS) of lentils are regularly eaten after thermal processing. However, the effect of these high temperatures on the beneficial antioxidants present in seeds is unknown. This study examined the effects of thermal processing on the color, polyphenol content, and antioxidant activity (AA) of the seeds of three different cultivars of lentils, including two with seed coats, French green (FG) and Lentil green (LG), and one without a seed coat, Lentil red (LR). Regardless of the cultivars and processing temperatures, the GS tended to be clearer and less yellow than the NGS. The GS of the FG and LG showed lower levels of total phenolic content, major flavonoid content (kaempferol, luteolin, and myricetin), and AA than the NGS. On the other hand, the LR displayed the opposite trend, with the above indicators being higher in the GS than in the NGS. As the values in the germinated endosperm tended to increase, it was concluded that the decrease in AA in the FG and LG was caused by the reduction in antioxidants in the seed coat. Although the temperature had nonsignificant effects on the majority of the antioxidants in the NGS and GS of different lentil cultivars, an 80 °C treatment yielded the highest value of AA in the GS of FG and LG. The results of a correlation coefficient analysis demonstrated the significance of the content of kaempferol, total flavonoids, and total phenolics examined for this experiment as contributors to AA in lentil tissues.

Accumulation of Antioxidative Phenolics and Carotenoids Using Thermal Processing in Different Stages of Momordica charantia Fruit. Molecules 2023; 28:molecules28031500. [PMID: 36771165 PMCID: PMC9920897 DOI: 10.3390/molecules28031500] [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: 01/20/2023] [Revised: 01/31/2023] [Accepted: 02/01/2023] [Indexed: 02/09/2023] Open
Abstract
The bitter taste of M. charantia fruit limits its consumption, although the health benefits are well known. The thermal drying process is considered as an alternative method to reduce the bitterness. However, processing studies have rarely investigated physiochemical changes in fruit stages. The antioxidant activities and physiochemical properties of various fruit stages were investigated using different thermal treatments. The color of the thermally treated fruit varied depending on the temperature. When heat-treated for 3 days, the samples from the 30 °C and 90 °C treatments turned brown, while the color of the 60 °C sample did not change significantly. The antioxidant activities were increased in the thermally processed samples in a temperature-dependent manner, with an increase in phenolic compounds. In the 90 °C samples, the 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl radical scavenging activity presented a 6.8-fold higher level than that of nonthermal treatment in mature yellow fruit (S3), whereas the activity showed about a 3.1-fold higher level in immature green (S1) and mature green (S2) fruits. Regardless of the stages, the carotenoid content tended to decrease with increasing temperature. In terms of antioxidant activities, these results suggested that mature yellow fruit is better for consumption using thermal processing.

Molecules 2022; 27:molecules27154782. [PMID: 35897960 PMCID: PMC9331281 DOI: 10.3390/molecules27154782] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/28/2022] [Revised: 07/22/2022] [Accepted: 07/23/2022] [Indexed: 02/01/2023] Open
Abstract
Although ginseng leaf is a good source of health-beneficial phytochemicals, such as polyphenols and ginsenosides, few studies have focused on the variation in compounds and bioactivities during leaf thermal processing. The efficiency of far-infrared irradiation (FIR) between 160 °C and 200 °C on the deglycosylation of bioactive compounds in ginseng leaves was analyzed. FIR treatment significantly increased the total polyphenol content (TPC) and kaempferol production from panasenoside conversion. The highest content or conversion ratio was observed at 180 °C (FIR-180). Major ginsenoside contents gradually decreased as the FIR temperature increased, while minor ginsenoside contents significantly increased. FIR exhibited high efficiency to produce dehydrated minor ginsenosides, of which F4, Rg6, Rh4, Rk3, Rk1, and Rg5 increased to their highest levels at FIR-190, by 278-, 149-, 176-, 275-, 64-, and 81-fold, respectively. Moreover, significantly increased antioxidant activities were also observed in FIR-treated leaves, particularly FIR-180, mainly due to the breakage of phenolic polymers to release antioxidants. These results suggest that FIR treatment is a rapid and efficient processing method for producing various health-beneficial bioactive compounds from ginseng leaves. After 30 min of treatment without leaf burning, FIR-190 was the optimum temperature for producing minor ginsenosides, whereas FIR-180 was the optimum temperature for producing polyphenols and kaempferol. In addition, the results suggested that the antioxidant benefits of ginseng leaves are mainly due to polyphenols rather than ginsenosides.
