Bioaccessibility of Antioxidants in Prickly Pear Fruits Treated with High Hydrostatic Pressure: An Application for Healthier Foods.

ABSTRACT: High hydrostatic pressure (HHP) is a commercial processing technology which can enhance the health potential of foods by improving the bioaccessibility of their bioactive compounds. Our aim was to study the bioaccessibility and digestive stability of phenolic compounds and betalains in prickly pear fruits (Opuntia ficus-indica L. Mill. var. Pelota and Sanguinos) treated with HHP (100, 350, and 600 MPa; come-up time and 5 min). The effects of HHP on pulps (edible fraction) and peels (sources of potential healthy ingredients) were assessed. In pulps, betanin bioaccessibility increased (+47% to +64%) when treated at 350 MPa/5 min. In HHP-treated pulps, increases in the bioaccessibility of piscidic acid (+67% to +176%) and 4-hydroxybenzoic acid glycoside (+126% to 136%) were also observed. Isorhamnetin glycosides in peels treated at 600 MPa/CUT had higher bioaccessibility (+17% to +126%) than their controls. The effects of HHP on the bioaccessibility of health-promoting compounds are not exclusively governed by extractability increases of antioxidants in the food matrix (direct effects). In this work we found evidence that indirect effects (effects on the food matrix) could also play a role in the increased bioaccessibility of antioxidants in fruits treated with HHP.

Digestive Stability and Bioaccessibility of Antioxidants in Prickly Pear Fruits from the Canary Islands: Healthy Foods and Ingredients.

Project description:Although prickly pear fruits have become an important part of the Canary diet, their native varieties are yet to be characterized in terms of betalains and phenolic compounds. To exert potential health benefits, these antioxidants must be released from the food matrix and be stable in the gastrointestinal tract. Our aim was to characterize the betalain and phenolic profile of four prickly pear varieties from the Canary Islands (Spain) and determine their digestive stability and bioaccessibility via in vitro gastrointestinal digestion. Digestive studies were performed considering the (i) importance of the edible fraction (pulps) and (ii) potential of fruit peels as by-products to obtain healthy ingredients. Betalains and phenolic profiles were analyzed by HPLC-DAD-ESI/MS and HPLC-DAD-MS/QTOF. Pulps in Colorada and Fresa varieties presented high indicaxanthin and betanin content, respectively. Despite low pH in the gastric phase, betalains were stable to reach the intestinal phase, although indicaxanthin presented a higher bioaccessibility. Blanco Buenavista peels contained a distinct flavonoid profile including a new isorhamnetin-hexosyl-rhamnoside. Phenolic compounds were abundant and highly bioaccessible in fruit peels. These findings suggest that prickly pear pulps are rich in bioaccessible betalains; and that their peels could be proposed as potential by-products to obtain sustainable healthy ingredients.

Phytochemical Analysis and Genotoxicological Evaluation of Prickly Pear Peel Extracts

Project description:This study investigated the beneficial properties of prickly pear peel (PPP) extracts from Opuntia ficus-indica (L.) Mill. Extracts were obtained via the Soxhlet extraction method using methanol (P1), ethanol (P2) and ethanol-water (P3) as extraction solvents. Their total phenolic and flavonoid content (TPC and TFC, respectively) and their antioxidant activity (AA) were determined. The PPP extracts were characterized in detail using mass spectrometry techniques. Their cyto-genotoxic effect and antigenotoxic potential against mitomycin C were evaluated via the cytokinesis block micronucleus (CBMN) assay on human lymphocytes. Enhanced TPC, TFC and AA values were recorded for all the extracts. Moreover, P1 and P2 were cytotoxic only at the highest concentrations, whereas P3 was found to be cytotoxic in all cases. No significant micronucleus induction was observed in the tested extracts. The PPP extracts contain bioactive compounds such as flavonoids, carboxylic acids, alkaloids, fatty acids and minerals (mainly K, Si, Mg, Ca, P and Zn). The results showed that all three extracts exerted high antigenotoxic activity. Our findings confirm the beneficial and genoprotective properties of PPP extracts and further studies on the bioactive compounds of Opuntia ficus-indica (L.) Mill. are recommended, as it constitutes a promising plant in pharmaceutical applications.

Response to high hydrostatic pressure

Project description:S. cerevisiae Y440 Mat a leu2 was grown in YEPD at 28 degrees C with aeration to exponential growth phase and was subjected to a hydrostatic pressure of 50 and 200 MPa for 30 minutes at room temperature. Total RNA was extracted using phenol/chloroform and further precipitated with 3 M sodium acetate / absolute ethanol. Extracted RNA samples were treated for 10 min with 0.5 U of RNAse-free DNAse I / ]g RNA at 37 oC to remove any residual genomic DNA. RNA pellets were washed in 70 % ethanol and resuspended in DEPC treated water. Purified mRNA from pressurized and unpressurized cells was reversed-transcribed, labeled with fluorescent-tagged nucleotides, and hybridized against a common refernce pool of mRNA for 18 h at 65 0C on cDNA microarray. After several washes, arrays were scanned using a commercially available scanning laser microscope (GenePix 4000) from Axon Instruments (Foster City, CA), the data obtained was normalized (mean value) applying a linear regression method.

Selenium-Induced Enhancement in Growth and Rhizosphere Soil Methane Oxidation of Prickly Pear.

Project description:As an essential element for plants, animals, and humans, selenium (Se) has been shown to participate in microbial methane oxidation. We studied the growth response and rhizosphere methane oxidation of an economic crop (prickly pear, Rosa roxburghii Tratt) through three treatments (Se0.6 mg/kg, Se2.0 mg/kg, and Se10 mg/kg) and a control (Se0 mg/kg) in a two-month pot experiment. The results showed that the height, total biomass, root biomass, and leaf biomass of prickly pear were significantly increased in the Se0.6 and Se2.0 treatments. The root-to-shoot ratio of prickly pear reached a maximum value in the Se2 treatment. The leaf carotenoid contents significantly increased in the three treatments. Antioxidant activities significantly increased in the Se0.6 and Se2 treatments. Low Se contents (0.6, 2 mg/kg) promoted root growth, including dry weight, length, surface area, volume, and root activity. There was a significant linear relationship between root and aboveground Se contents. The Se translocation factor increased as the soil Se content increased, ranging from 0.173 to 0.288. The application of Se can improve the state of rhizosphere soil's organic C and soil nutrients (N, P, and K). Se significantly promoted the methane oxidation rate in rhizosphere soils, and the Se10 treatment showed the highest methane oxidation rate. The soil Se gradients led to differentiation in the growth, rhizosphere soil properties, and methane oxidation capacity of prickly pear. The root Se content and Se translocation factor were significantly positively correlated with the methane oxidation rate. Prickly pear can accumulate Se when grown in Se-enriched soil. The 2 mg/kg Se soil treatment enhanced growth and methane oxidation in the rhizosphere soil of prickly pear.

In vitro bioaccessibility of copper azole following simulated dermal transfer from pressure-treated wood.

Project description:Micronized copper azole (MCA) and micronized copper quaternary (MCQ) are the latest wood preservatives to replace the liquid alkaline copper and chromated copper arsenate preservatives due to concerns over the toxicity or lack of effectiveness of the earlier formulations. Today, the use of MCA has become abundant in the wood preservative industry with approximately 38millionlbs of copper carbonate being used to treat lumber each year. Despite this widespread usage, little information is available on the bioaccessibility of this preservative upon gastrointestinal exposure. Using a simulated hand-to-mouth/gastric system exposure study we investigated several types of commercially available copper-treated lumber products as-purchased and after exposure to outdoor weathering conditions. Soluble and particulate fractions of copper were measured after transfer to and release from surface wipes passed along copper-treated lumber and exposed to synthetic stomach fluid (SSF, pH1.5) or deionized (DI) water. Wipes passed along new boards contained greater amounts of copper than wipes from weathered boards. The total copper recovered from the wipes after microwave extraction varied among the different wood types. For all wood types the copper released into SSF was more soluble than what was soluble in DI water. The data suggest that copper from treated wood is highly bioaccessible in SSF regardless of wood type and weathering condition.

Changes in Physicochemical Properties and Volatiles of Kiwifruit Pulp Beverage Treated with High Hydrostatic Pressure.

Project description:Physicochemical properties and volatiles of kiwifruit pulp beverage treated with high hydrostatic pressure (HHP, 400-600 MPa/5-15 min) were investigated during 40-day refrigerated storage. Compared with heat treatment (HT), HHP ranged from 400-500 MPa was superior in retaining vitamin C, fresh-like color and volatiles, while soluble solids content and pH were not affected significantly. Furthermore, HHP improved brightness and inhibited browning of kiwifruit pulp beverage. Samples treated at 400 MPa for 15 min showed significantly higher vitamin C content and lower ?E values over 40 days than heat-treated kiwifruit pulp beverage. The total content of alcohols, esters, acids, and ketones gradually increased, whereas the total aldehydes content decreased during storage. Interestingly, HHP treatment at 500 MPa for 15 min mostly retained important characteristic volatiles including hexanal and (E)-2-hexenal, indicating this treatment was more conducive to preserve the original fruity, fresh, grassy and green notes of kiwifruit pulp beverage than HT.
