Biotransformation and Gut Microbiota-Mediated Bioactivity of Flavonols

Meiyan Wang et al.

Summary: The consumption of fruits and vegetables is linked to a decreased risk of various diseases, including metabolic disorders. Flavonols, which are abundant in these foods, have low oral bioavailability due to extensive biotransformation in the body. However, metabolites of flavonols, produced during this process, may exhibit similar or higher bioactivities, showing positive health effects. Understanding the metabolic fate of flavonols, the biological activities of their metabolites, and the impact of microbiota-mediated conversion is crucial for developing a diet rich in flavonol-containing foods and functional foods.

Drying methods effect on bioactive compounds, phenolic profile, and antioxidant capacity of mango powder

Shireen Akther et al.

Summary: The effects of different drying methods on the phenolic profile, bioactive compounds, and antioxidant capacity of mango powder were investigated to find an effective drying technique. The results showed significant variations in total phenolic content, total flavonoid content, total anthocyanin content, and total carotenoid content among different drying methods, and the antioxidant properties were also influenced by the drying methods. The antioxidant capacity of dried mango powder was strongly correlated with phenolic compounds.

Fermented Whey Ewe's Milk-Based Fruit Smoothies: Bio-Recycling and Enrichment of Phenolic Compounds and Improvement of Protein Digestibility and Antioxidant Activity

Ali Zein Alabiden Tlais et al.

Summary: This study aimed to recycle whey milk by-products in fruit smoothies through started-assisted fermentation and delivering sustainable and healthy food formulations. Five lactic acid bacteria strains were selected as best starters for smoothie production. Fermentation led to distinct profiles of sugars, organic acids, ascorbic acid, phenolic compounds, and especially anthocyanins. Protein and phenolics interaction enhanced the release of anthocyanins, notably under the action of Lactiplantibacillus plantarum. The same bacterial strains outperformed other species in terms of protein digestibility and quality.

The influence of probiotic fermentation on the active compounds and bioactivities of walnut flowers

Yue-Rong Ru et al.

Summary: This study demonstrates the significant impact of different probiotic fermentations on the chemical composition and biological activities of walnut flowers. Short-term fermentation enhances antioxidant capacities and inhibitory abilities, while longer fermentation periods result in a loss of active compounds and bioactivities. The findings provide valuable insights for manufacturers in selecting suitable strains and fermentation times for fermented walnut flowers.

Alvaro Ferreira-Lazarte et al.

Summary: This study investigated the amino acid sequence, structural analysis, biochemical properties, and glycosidase activity of two recombinant alpha-rhamnosidases, Ram1 and Ram2, from Lactobacillus plantarum WCFS1. Ram2 demonstrated a substrate specificity towards alpha-(1→6) glycosidic flavonoids and potential cost-effective production of isoquercetin. PPO was found to efficiently convert naringin and rutin into their corresponding aglycones, suggesting its potential use for improving the sensory properties of beverages.
