Characterisation of acylated anthocyanins from red cabbage, purple sweet potato, and Tradescantia pallida leaves as natural food colourants by HPLC-DAD-ESI(+)-QTOF-MS/MS and ESI(+)-MSn analysis
(2023)
Anthocyanins in red cabbage, sweet potato, and Tradescantia pallida leaves were characterised. A total of 18 non–, mono-, and diacylated cyanidins was identified in red cabbage by high performance liquid chromatography-diode ...
Phytochemical and mineral composition of fruits and seeds of wild-growing Bactris guineensis (L.) H.E. Moore palms from Costa Rica
(2020-12)
In the present study, nutritionally relevant constituents of wild-growing B. guineensis palm fruit from Costa Rica were assessed. In the edible exo- and mesocarp, 24 soluble free and six insoluble bound phenolic compounds ...
Formas de deposición de carotenoides en alimentos vegetales y sus posibles implicaciones en su bioaccesibilidad y biodisponibilidad
(2017-11)
En las plantas, los carotenoides son generalmente biosintetizados y depositados en diferentes tipos de plastidios. En tejidos vegetales verdes, los carotenoides se encuentran dentro de cloroplastos, los cuales tienen ...
Characterization of Mesocarp and Kernel Lipids from Jacq., [Kunth] Cortés, and Their Interspecific Hybrids
(2017)
Morphological traits, total lipid contents, and fatty acid profiles were assessed in fruits of several accessions of Elaeis oleifera [Kunth] Cortes,́ Elaeis guineensis Jacq., and their interspecific hybrids. The latter ...
Identification of Phenolic and Carotenoid Compounds in Coffee (Coffea Arabica) Pulp, Peels and Mucilage by HPLC Electrospray Ionization Mass Spectrometry
(2013)
Coffee pulp, peels, and mucilage are by-products accruing from wet coffee processing. Like coffee seeds, the se fruit tissues contain substantial amounts of polyphenols and other bioactives. In the present study, polyphenols ...
Effect of processing on biofunctionality of selected tropical fruit juices
(2022)
This review compiles the current state of knowledge on the effects of processing using thermal and nonthermal technologies and fermentation on selected compounds in potentially health-promoting tropical fruit juices, ...
HPLC-DAD-APCI/ESI-MSn analysis of carotenoids and α-tocopherol in Costa Rican Acrocomia aculeata fruits of varying maturity stages
(2018-03)
Carotenoids and tocopherols were characterised in the meso- and exocarp of wild-growing Costa Rican Acrocomia aculeata fruits. Comprehensive profiling of these lipophilic micronutrients in fruits of three varying maturity ...
Identification of phenolic compounds in soursop (Annona muricata) pulp by high-performance liquid chromatography with diode array and electrospray ionization mass spectrometric detection
(2014-11)
Soursop (Annona muricata L., Annonaceae) is a neotropical fruit species producing large fruits that can be consumed fresh and mainly processed. While the leaves, roots and stems of this species have been the subject of ...
Coffee (Coffea arabica L.) by-Products as a Source of Carotenoids and Phenolic Compounds—Evaluation of Varieties With Different Peel Color
(2020)
Analysis of pulp and peels of Arabica coffee varieties with different external fruit color
allowed the identification of 16 phenolic compounds using high-performance liquid
chromatography with diode array detection and ...
Carotenoids and carotenoid esters of orange- and yellow-fleshed mamey sapote ( Pouteria sapota (Jacq.) H.E. Moore & Stearn) fruit and their post-prandial absorption in humans
(2017-04)
Although different genotypes of mamey sapote with distinct pulp colors are consumed in countries from Central to South America, in-depth knowledge on genotype-related differences of their carotenoid profile is lacking. ...
