Phenolic compounds are secondary metabolites and widely distributed in higher plants. When plants subjected to injury stress, the rapid synthesis of more phenols is induced result defense response for wound healing repair. Fresh-cut fruits vegetables undergo substantial mechanical caused by pre-preparations such as peeling, coring, cutting slicing. These processing operations lead activate biosynthesis phenolic metabolite. important sources antioxidant activity fresh-cut vegetables. The wound-induced accumulation have been reported recent years. This article provides a brief overview research published over last decade on It suggested that wounding stress can be used an effective way improve nutritional composition function produces.

Infrared spectroscopy (wavelengths ranging from 750–25,000 nm) offers a rapid means of assessing the chemical composition wide range sample types, both for qualitative and quantitative analyses. Its use in food industry has increased significantly over past five decades it is now an accepted analytical technique routine analysis certain analytes. Furthermore, commonly used screening quality control purposes numerous settings, albeit not typically bioactive compounds. Using Scopus database, systematic search literature years between 2016 2020 identified 45 studies using near-infrared 17 mid-infrared quantification compounds products. The most common assessed were polyphenols, anthocyanins, carotenoids ascorbic acid. Numerous factors affect accuracy developed model, including analyte class concentration, matrix type, instrument geometry, wavelength selection spectral processing/pre-processing methods. Additionally, only few validated on independently sourced samples. Nevertheless, results demonstrate some promise infrared estimation matrices.

Parkinson's disease (PD) is the second most common neurodegenerative disorder. However, therapeutic options treating only its symptoms are very disappointing. Therefore there an ongoing search for compounds capable of tackling multi-dimensional features PD. Recently natural polyphenols have gained great interest as potential agents. Herein, we attempted to summarize results obtained in different animal models demonstrating their neuroprotective effects. The vivo findings presented below supported by human subject data and reports regarding ability cross blood-brain barrier. beneficial effects demonstrated behavioral examinations, mainly related motor cognitive capabilities, histopathological immunohistochemical examination concerning protection dopaminergic neurons, analyses dopamine concentration metabolites, well mechanistic studies modulation oxidative stress, neuroinflammation, cellular iron management, proteinopathy, additionally regulation signaling pathways.

Flavones are an important class of bioactive constituents in foods, and their structural diversity enables them to interact with different targets. In particular, flavones known for anti-inflammatory activity. Herein, we summarized commonly applied vitro, vivo, clinical models testing activity flavones. The structure–activity relationship was systematically mapped supported cross comparisons that flavanones, flavanols, isoflavones. Hydroxyl groups (−OH) indispensable the function flavones, −OH at C-5 C-4′ positions enhance while C-6, C-7, C-8, C-3′ attenuate Moreover, C2–C3 single bond, C-3 B-ring undermine flavone aglycones' Most aglycones through NF-κB, MAPK, JNK-STAT pathways, possible cell binding targets kinase, aryl hydrocarbon receptor (AhR), G-protein coupled receptors, estrogen receptors. However, structure were unclear, further research shall be conducted close gap order guide development evidence-based functional foods.
