Cereal grains play an important role in human health as a source of macro- and micronutrients, besides phytochemicals. The metabolite diversity was investigated in cereal crops and their milling fractions by untargeted metabolomics ultra-high-performance liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (UHPLC-MS/MS) of 69 samples: 7 species (barley, oat, pearl millet, rye, sorghum, triticale, and wheat), 23 genotypes, and 4 milling fractions (husk, bran, flour, and wholegrain). Samples were also analyzed by antioxidant activity.

Short germination is a process that can improve bioactive compounds in rice. This work aimed investigate the physical properties, phenolic compounds (PC), antioxidant activity and amino acids composition of husk + bran, brown and milled rice with high amylose content after short germination (16 h). α-amylase activity (Falling Number, FN) and enthalpy (ΔH) were unchanged (p < 0.

Unlabelled: Common wheat () is one of the most consumed staple foods used for bakery products. Outer layers of grain present a great diversity of bioactive compounds, especially phenolic compounds (PC). Free and bound PC were extracted from eight genotypes of whole wheat flours (WWF) presenting different technological classifications.

Untargeted metabolomics analysis was applied to evaluate the phenolic profile of whole wheat bread with yerba mate (YM) during the bread-making process (flour, dough and bread). The free, bound and total phenolic contents of the samples evaluated by the Folin-Ciocalteu method showed the highest values for the flour, dough and bread samples prepared with 4.5% YM in fine and medium particle sizes (flour 181.

The phenolic-profiling of seven different wheat (Triticum aestivum) genotypes was investigated for the first time during different stages of grain development (milky, softy, physiological maturity and mature). Free and bound phenolic compounds were extracted separately and analyzed by UPLC-QTOF-MS. Total phenolic content significantly decreased, up to 50% depending on the genotype, towards the maturation of grain.

This article contains data on phenolic-profiling of seven wheat genotypes along maturation (softy, milky, physiological maturity and mature). This supplementary data is related to research "Metabolomic approach for characterization of phenolic compounds in different wheat genotypes during grain development" (Santos et al., 2018).
