The objective of this study was to analyze and optimize the influence of heating time and citric acid (CA) or sucrose addition of Ardisia compressa K. extracts on phenolic compounds (TPC), monomeric anthocyanins (MAA), antioxidant activity (TAC), color density (CD), and hue tint (HT), using a full factorial design. Extractions were performed: temperature (25, 50, or 70 °C), time (15, 30, 60, or 90 min), CA (0.0 or 0.02 g), and sucrose (0.0 or 5.0 g). HPLC-DAD-ESI-MS was conducted in extracts without additives and with the addition of CA (0.02 g) or sucrose (5.0 g), at 25, 50, or 70 °C for 15 min. CA-added extracts showed maximum TPC, MAA, TAC (DDPH and ABTS assays), and CD values, with the lowest HT values. Malvidin 3-O-galactoside and myricetin-O-hexoside were the predominant anthocyanin and non-anthocyanin polyphenols. Time, temperature, and solute influenced the optimized extraction of TPC, MAA, anthocyanins, TAC, CD, and HT.

Background/aims: Gastric cancer (GC) is a significant global health issue with high incidence rates and poor prognoses, ranking among the top prevalent cancers worldwide. Due to undesirable side effects and drug resistance, there is a pressing need for the development of novel therapeutic strategies. Understanding the interconnectedness of the JAK2/STAT3/mTOR/PI3K pathway in tumorigenesis and the role of Astaxanthin (ASX), a red ketocarotenoid member of xanthophylls and potent antioxidant and anti-tumor activity, can be effective for cancer treatments.

Water scarcity is a foremost environmental concern and is expected to hasten in the forthcoming years due to severe fluctuations in weather patterns worldwide. The present work was designed to explore the potential role of alpha-tocopherol (α-Toc), a form of vitamin E, on the morphological, physio-biochemical, and cellular antioxidant responses of two radish genotypes grown under drought conditions (38 ± 3% of field capacity). The individual and combined applications of α-Toc (100 ppm) were used as T0- Control, T1- Control + TF (TF-alpha-tocopherol), T2- Drought (D), and T3- D + TF with three replications.

Thyme and oregano essential oils (EOs) and their components have numerous applications in the pharmaceutical, food, and cosmetic industries owing to their antioxidant, antibacterial, antifungal, anti-inflammatory, antiviral, and immunological properties. We attempted to create new chemotypes through the hybridization of thyme and oregano for functional EO research and product development. Here, we used interspecific hybridization to create new thyme and oregano germplasms with new EO chemotypes.

Maize (Zea mays L.) faces significant challenges to its growth and productivity from heavy metal stress, particularly Chromium (Cr) stress, which induces reactive oxygen species (ROS) generation and damages photosynthetic tissues. This study aimed to investigate the effects of fulvic acid (FA) application, via foliar spray or root irrigation, on mitigating chromium stress in maize by evaluating its impact on antioxidant activity and growth parameters.

Nonylphenol (NP) is a ubiquitous environmental endocrine disrupting chemical and oxidative stress inducer in biological systems. Resveratrol (RES) and Naringenin (NG) are phytochemicals possessing antioxidant properties and estrogenic activity. This study was conducted to investigate the toxicity of NP and the mitigating effects of RES and NG on NP toxicity in rats.
