Lippia alba is a medicinal plant widely used by the inhabitants of northwest Mexico to relieve gastrointestinal and inflammatory problems; however, the phytochemical profile and bioactive potential of their polar fraction have been poorly studied. In this study phytochemical screening showed qualitatively the presence of phenolic compounds, tannins, and triterpenes in L. alba aqueous infusion and stem, flower, and leaves methanolic extracts.

A method was developed to determine glyphosate and their metabolites in water. The widespread use of this herbicide in agricultural activities worldwide, despite the reported adverse effects on both the environment and health, is a cause for concern and makes it necessary to monitor its presence through a method that guarantees the determination at trace levels. A direct extraction of the analytes with phosphate buffer was performed with subsequent derivatization with 9-fluorenylmethyl chloroformate.

The aim of this study was to evaluate the antioxidant and anti-proliferative activity of different fractions of phenolic compounds from tomato and tomato by-product. Soluble free phenolics and bound phenolics (BP) fractions from saladette tomato and industrial tomato by-product as well as, conjugated acid-hydrolysable phenolics (AHP) and alkaline-hydrolysable phenolics (AKHP) from saladette tomato, grape tomato and industrial tomato by-product, were tested. The scavenging effects of phenolic fractions on superoxide anion were determined using the PMS-NADH-NBT system.

This is the first report about the presence of pesticide residues in water and sediments from Chacahua-Pastoria Lagoon System in the Oaxaca Coast, Mexico. Organochlorine and organophosphate pesticides were analyzed in water and sediment samples collected during rainy and dry seasons in 2018. The pesticides extraction was carried out by 525.

The aim of this study was to isolate, identify and quantify soluble free phenolics, conjugated acid-hydrolysable phenolics (AHP) and alkaline-hydrolysable phenolics, and bound phenolics (BP) fractions from two tomato varieties (saladette and grape) and an industrial tomato by-product, as well as, to determine their antioxidant capacity. Phenolic composition was determined using Folin-Ciocalteu's method and HPLC-DAD. AHP were predominant in grape and saladette tomato extracts (91.

Article Synopsis
  • Jatropha curcas seed shells, a by-product of oil extraction, have gained attention for their chemical properties and potential uses.
  • The study identified and quantified various phenolic compounds in the shells, finding high levels of free, conjugate, and bound phenolics.
  • The methanolic extract from these shells demonstrated significant antioxidant activity, comparable to well-known antioxidants like Trolox and ascorbic acid, making it a promising source of natural antioxidants.
