The thermal stability of vitamin C (including l-ascorbic acid [l-AA] and dehydroascorbic acid [DHAA]) in crushed broccoli was evaluated in the temperature range of 30 to 90 degrees C whereas that of ascorbic acid oxidase (AAO) was evaluated in the temperature range of 20 to 95 degrees C. Thermal
The phytochemical and antioxidant properties of mature (head stage) Chinese cabbage (Brassica rapa ssp. pekinensis) are known; however, data on the phenolic profile, vitamin C (L-ascorbic acid) content and antioxidant capacity of its fresh sprouts are lacking. Since the human
L-Galactono-gamma-lactone dehydrogenase (EC 1.3.2.3; GLDase), an enzyme that catalyzes the final step in the biosynthesis of L-ascorbic acid was purified 1693-fold from a mitochondrial extract of cauliflower (Brassica oleracea, var. botrytis) to apparent homogeneity with an overall yield of 1.1%.
The folate poly-gamma-glutamate profile, their concentrations, and hydrolysis by endogenous gamma-glutamyl hydrolase (GGH) were evaluated in broccoli, carrot and tomato. Further studies on the effect of time and temperature on folate poly-gamma-glutamate hydrolysis and stability were carried out in
OBJECTIVE
The aim of this study was to research the ultrasound-assisted freezing (UAF) of broccoli.
METHODS
CaCl2 solution was used as freezing medium. The comparative advantage of using UAF over normal freezing on the freezing time, cell-wall bound calcium to total calcium ratio, textural
The main component of scallop-shell powder is calcium carbonate (CaCO3). Through heat treatment, CaCO3 in the shell is converted to CaO, which exhibits antibacterial activity. The disinfecting effect of heated scallop-shell powder on shredded cabbage was investigated for various powder
When considering the history of vitamin C, and the names given to this molecule in early days, the Latin proverb nomen est omen suddenly comes to mind. Around 1920, when Casimir Funk introduced the term Vitamin C to indicate the nutritional factor necessary to prevent the pathological state known as
We present a green synthesis of fluorescent carbon quantum dots (CQDs) by using red cabbage (rc) and a one-step hydrothermal approach. The rcCQDs were characterized by various techniques such as UV-visible spectroscopy, transmission electron microscopy (TEM), high-resolution TEM, Fourier-transform
Research on natural and bioactive compounds is increasingly focused on their effects on human health, but there are unexpectedly few studies evaluating the relationship between climate and natural antioxidants. The aim of this study was analyze the biological role of six different Brassica
From the leaves of Brassica juncea, an radical scavenging isorhamnetin 7-O-glucoside on peroxynitrite and 1,1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) was isolated and characterized based on the spectroscopic evidence. The compound showed the peroxynitrite and DPPH scavenging activities with IC50 values of
Searches for the natural compounds that determine the anticarcinogenic properties of a cruciferous-vegetable diet, revealed the products of alkaloid glucobrassicin biotransformations; among these, ascorbigen, an indole-containing derivative of L-ascorbic acid, was found to be the most abundant.
