BACKGROUND
Quince has many health benefits. Dried quince has been used as a tea for centuries. The aim of this study was to investigate the influences of two drying methods on the antioxidant activity of the quince.
METHODS
Fifty two fresh Iranian quinces (Cydonia oblonga) were obtained from
Many studies have shown that bioactive compounds, for example, polyphenols, and so on can play an important role in reducing oxidative stress and protect against various diseases. The sources of these compounds in the human diet include mainly fruit and good quality fruit juices, which may contain
A novel terpenoid, cydonioside A (1), was isolated from the fruits of Cydonia vulgaris Pers. Its structure and relative configuration were elucidated on the basis of in-depth spectroscopic analyses, including 2D-NMR experiments as well as MM+ calculations. Compound 1 was assayed for its
Carotenoid metabolites are common plant constituents with significant importance for the flavor and aroma of fruits. Three new carotenoid derivatives, (2E,4E)-8-hydroxy-2,7-dimethyl-2,4-decadiene-1,10-dioic acid 1-O-beta-D-glucopyranosyl ester (1),
The Chilean National School Feeding Program (NSFP) delivers breakfast and lunch meals that supply 250 and 450 kcal, respectively, along the country. In the last decades, a significant increase of obesity has been observed in primary education children, and it involves risk factors of
This study was conducted to analyze the bioactive compounds and in vitro , antioxidant capacity of tea infusions prepared from whole and ground medicinal fruits, including gardenia, jujube, magnolia, quince, and wolfberries. The dried medicinal fruit samples were ground, and then passed through a
OBJECTIVE
The aim of the study was to establish whether the addition of some berries and fruits during quince jam processing, improves its colour and enriches it in polyphenol compounds, other than those found in quince fruits.
METHODS
Phenolic compounds were identified and quantified by LC-MS Q/TOF
To evaluate the health benefits of Chinese quince and quince phenolics, their antioxidant properties and antiulcerative activity were investigated in comparison with apple phenolics as a reference. The strength of antioxidant activity and DPPH radical scavenging activity of these fruit phenolics
To evaluate the phenolic extracts of Chinese quince, quince, and apple fruits, their phenolic profiles, antioxidant properties, and anti-influenza viral activities were investigated. Chinese quince had the largest amount of phenolics consisting mainly of high polymeric procyanidins. Quince had
In the course of a screening program on quince phytochemicals, two complex preparations were in the focus of the present study, i.e., a lipophilic quince wax extract (QWE) and an aqueous fermented one (QAFE). While the phytochemical composition has been described earlier, the intention of the
Thirteen new compounds, as well as 16 already known, have been isolated from organic extracts of peels of Cydonia vulgaris, a fruit of a shrub belonging to the same tribe as the apple. All of the structures were elucidated by EI- or ESI-MS and (1)H and (13)C NMR after purification of individual
To investigate the effects of processing Chinese quince fruit on the denaturation of phenolics and their food functions, fruit phenolic extracts were heated together with organic acid for up to 12 h. Chinese quince phenolic (mostly procyanidins) solution subjected to heat treatment changed from
Neglected and underutilized plant species could serve as a valuable source of natural bioactive compounds. The objective of this study was to evaluate the biological activity of Chinese quince (Pseudocydonia sinensis Schneid) genotypes of Ukrainian and Slovak The study aimed at assessing effects of freeze-dried Japanese quince fruit (FJQF; 0-9%) added to cookies to improve their antioxidant attributes during storage, sensory and volatile characteristics and acceptability by consumers. Cookies containing FJQF had 2-3.5-fold higher radical scavenging
Pome trees, apple, pear, and quince, are classified into the subfamily Pomoideae, belonging to the Rosaceae family. Their autumnal fruits are consumed worldwide in different forms, that is, fresh or transformed into jams, jelly, juices, etc. Their well-established beneficial properties to human
