Uncovering the phenolic diversity of Guabiju fruit: LC-MS/MS-based targeted metabolomics approach.

The comprehensive composition of phenolic compounds (PC) from seven genotypes of guabiju were analyzed by high-performance liquid chromatography coupled to a diode array detector and mass spectrometry (HPLC-ESI-qTOF-MS/MS), and a targeted metabolomic approach was utilized to explore the PC-related similarities among the genotypes. Sixty-seven phenolic compounds were annotated and twenty-four were quantified in all genotypes of guabiju. The phenolic acids and anthocyanins were the major PC, representing more than 63% (w/w) of the total PC.

Influence of cultivar and season on carotenoids and phenolic compounds from red lettuce influence of cultivar and season on lettuce.

This paper presents complete HPLC profiles and MS spectrometric data of bioactive compounds from four cultivars of red lettuce produced in winter and summer and their antioxidant capacity. The experiment was carried out in a greenhouse, where red curly lettuce was cultivated: Mila, Maira, Carmin and Scarlet. The cultivar and season have not influenced the qualitative profile of carotenoids (CAR) and phenolic compounds (PC) of red lettuce.

Effects of indoor, greenhouse, and field cultivation on bioactive compounds from parsley and basil.

Background: Aromatic herbs are an important source of bioactive compounds. Different cultivation systems should give each plant a specific amount of those compounds, which should be of a particular quality. In this study, the effects of three cultivation systems (indoor, greenhouse, and organic field) on the composition of bioactive compounds in parsley (Petroselinum crispum cv.
