Abstract
Methylglyoxal (MGO) scavenging capacity of fiber-bound polyphenols from highland barley during colonic fermentation and its potential role in modulating MGO-induced detrimental effects on gut microbiota were studied. Results showed that only 25.3 % of polyphenols were released after 24 h of colonic fermentation. More than 45.5 % of MGO was scavenged by the residual fiber-bound polyphenols in the model system, showing a vital role in scavenging MGO in the colonic lumen compared to the released polyphenols. Moreover, MGO promoted the increase of gut pathogens (Escherichia-Shigella and Klebsiella) and inhibited the proliferation of Megasphaera, Bifidobacterium and Megamonas, as well as reduced short-chain fatty acids (SCFAs) concentration. The addition of fiber-bound polyphenols of highland barley could effectively counteract MGO-induced detrimental consequences on gut microbiota and SCFAs production. These results demonstrate that fiber-bound polyphenols from highland barley can exert beneficial role through scavenging MGO and promises to be a functional ingredient to maintain colon heath.

Abstract
The possibility to prevent nutrition-related diseases that include scavenge of free radicals and to block chain reactions is very important and significant for human well-being. The aim of this study was to analyse different basil extracts, determine the relationship between total phenolic/flavonoid content and antioxidant activity in order to optimize its application in industry. The extraction involved different solvents (ethanol, methanol and water), extraction time (10 and 30 min and 24, 48 and 72 h), plant fragmentation level (0.3 and 2 mm) and the presence or absence of light. Antioxidant activity was investigated by applying spectrophotometric method and measuring the total phenolic and flavonoid content and DPPH radical scavenging activity. The content of total phenolics varied from 5.2 to 185.6 mg of gallic acid equivalents per gram of a dry extract and flavonoids ranged from 0.2 to 35.0 mg of quercetin per gram of a dry extract. All extracts presented a scavenging capacity and IC50 values of DPPH radical inhibition ranged from 0.04 to 12.99 μg/ml. The evaluation of experimental data for eighty basil extracts was performed by chemometric analysis showing good correlation between yield and total phenolic compounds, as well as flavonoid content and inhibition of the DPPH radical.

Oxidative stress, leaf photosynthetic capacity and dry matter content in young mangrove plant Rhizophora mucronata Lam. under prolonged submergence and soil water stress.

Abstract
Young plants of Rhizophora mucronata Lam. were tested for oxidative stress, photosynthetic capacity and dry matter accumulation under two abiotic stress conditions; prolonged submergence and soil water stress. The experiment of prolonged submergence was performed in field conditions with two treatment levels; 50% inundation (control) and 100% inundation levels. The experiment of soil water stress was conducted in a plant-house with four treatment levels, 100% water holding capacity (WHC) (control), 50% WHC, 25% WHC and high salinity (> 35 psu). The experimentation period was 18 months. According to the results, antioxidant activity was increased in the 100% inundation level in field conditions and in the 25% WHC, 50% WHC and high salinity levels in plant-house conditions. However, decreased radical scavenging capacity reflected by low 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) and high IC50 values were only observed in the 25% and 50% WHCs. Plant cell membranes were highly damaged in the 25%, 50% WHCs and high salinity level and a significant decrease in photosynthetic capacity (~ 90% reduction) and in dry matter content of Rhizophora plants were also observed in the same treatment levels. It was recorded that a higher proportion of dry matter is allocated to the root system under the 100% inundation level and it may be an adaptation to keep up the standing stability. Although, the antioxidant and scavenging capacities of young Rhizophora plants have increased under abiotic stress conditions, oxidative stress and its associated impacts on leaf photosynthetic capacity and dry weight contents were unavoidable under persistence of the stress.

Abstract
Oxygen absorption measurements in continuous regard active multilayer films with different layouts, all incorporating a PET/Oxygen scavenger (OS) layer, operating as active O2 barrier, inserted between two PET inert layers, acting as passive O2 barrier. The data set is related to “Transport properties of multilayer active PET films with different layers configuration” by Apicella et al. (2018) [1]. A set of four multilayer films, with different relative thickness of the active and inert layers, was produced using a laboratory scale co-extrusion cast-film equipment and was analyzed in terms of oxygen scavenging performance. Single layer active and inert layers were also produced for comparison. The results have shown a longer exhaustion time for all the active multilayer films, respect to the active monolayer one. Moreover, at constant thickness of the active layer, the exhaustion time increases by increasing the thickness of the inert layers, whereas, at constant thickness of the inert layers, the residual oxygen concentration decreases by increasing the thickness of the active layer.

Abstract
Seven edible seeds for the levels of melatonin, phenolic compounds and their antioxidant capacity were evaluated during germination process. Radical scavenging parameters were also studied in standard antioxidants to understand their antiradical actions. Germination brought about significant increases of total phenol compounds in all edible seeds, showing red cabbage, radish and broccoli the highest contents (21.6, 20.4 and 16.4 mg GAE/g DW, respectively). The concentration of melatonin is greatly variable in edible seeds, exhibiting significant increases during germination. The highest levels were found in red cabbage (857 pg/g DW) radish (536 pg/g DW) and broccoli (439 pg/g DW). The germinated seeds which had the highest levels of polyphenols and melatonin were those that showed the most relevant antiradical activities (>97%). This information is valuable for the incorporation of red cabbage, radish and broccoli germinated seeds into the diet to promote potential health benefits.
