Flowers, leaves and fruits of hawthorn plant are traditionally used for treating diseases like hypertension and atherosclerosis. The medicinal effects of the plant are generally attributed to its phenolic compounds. However, the fruits are perishable materials because of their high content of water, and generally dried and stored to be used outside its season. The main aim of this research was to investigate the effect of different drying methods on phenolic compounds of the hawthorn fruit. Fruits were collected from the wild growing trees in Turkey. De-seeded fruits were dried in freeze-, oven- (60 oC) and microwave pretreated oven drying (microwave application for 5 min at 360 W before drying at 60 oC) methods and analyzed for antioxidant activity, phenolic compounds, total phenolic content and color parameters. Total phenolic content of fresh hawthorn fruits was found as 13.36 mg g-1 DW. Oven- and microwave pretreated oven drying methods had a reductive effect on total phenolic content and antioxidant activity of fruits when compared to freeze drying method. (-)-Epicatechin (994.10 mg kg-1 DW), rutin (765.30 mg kg-1 DW), and procyanidin B2 (553.80 mg kg-1 DW) were the main phenolics of the fruit. Lowest values of these three compounds were observed in oven-dried fruits. Microwave pretreatment oven drying method resulted in browner product. Although the highest phenolic concentration and antioxidant activity were occurred in freeze-dried sample, microwave pretreatment before oven drying could be applied to reduce the time and cost of drying in terms of phenolic compounds and antioxidant activity.

Blackberries are an important option for the diversification of fruit crops. However, there is currently no literature regarding plant cultivation in high-altitude tropical climates. Knowledge of the phenolic composition of blackberries is essential because variations in the levels of these components may exist between cultivars and may depend on environmental conditions. High performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) was used to evaluate the total phenol content of different blackberry cultivars (Arapaho, Brazos, Cainguangue, Cherokee, Choctaw, Comanche, Ébano, Guarani, Tupy and Xavante). Free radical scavenging activity in these cultivars was assayed using a DPPH test. The HPLC-UV chromatogram of blackberry fruit extracts at 280 nm revealed the presence of phenolic compounds. The results showed significant differences in the levels of phenolic compounds in the blackberry cultivars tested. Antioxidant activity was evaluated using the ABTS free radical and ranged from 2.7 ± 0.1 to 19 ± 2 μmole of Trolox equivalents per gram of sample (b.u.). These results are in good correlation with the phenolic contents of the blackberries tested. The Xavante blackberry cultivar had the highest levels of polyphenols that could be individually identified. Catechin polyphenols were found to be the main component in the blackberry varieties tested.

Background: Cajá-manga is an exotic fruit, source of compounds that have antioxidant activity, such as pro-vitamin A and carotenoids. Objective: Thus, the objective of the present study was to develop an efficient microencapsulation process for cajá-manga pulp by different types of encapsulating agents (maltodextrin and xanthan gum), ratio pulp/carrier agents (1:2 or 1:5), and the drying technology (lyophilization and spray dryer). Methods: Physicochemical analysis, phenolic compounds, carotenoids, antioxidant activity and microcapsule morphology were performed. Results: The cajá-manga and its microcapsulas can be considered source of phenolic compounds, carotenoides and antioxidants. The morphology showed differences between the both drying methods, with encapsulation efficiency greater than 70% in 1:2 (w/w) ratio, and efficiencies around 40% with 1:5 (w/w) pulp and carrier agent. Conclusion: The use of maltodextrin and xanthan gum showed to be viable in the spray dryer and lyophilization drying processes.

Suruhan herb have been used globally as concoction for medical and therapeutic purposes, so that it is much needed to investigate their phytonutrients. The variations in drying methods can affect the levels of bioactive compounds and antioxidant activity, so an appropriate drying strategy is needed to produce simplicia that containing high bioactive compounds and antioxidant activity. Based on the considerations above, this study aimed to determine the effect of various drying methods strategies (direct sunlight, oven drying and wind drying) on the bioactive compounds and antioxidant activity of the suruhan herb. The extract of suruhan herb were subsequently analyzed for total flavonoids, total phenols, total tannins, and their antioxidant activity. The results showed that oven-dried suruhan herb produced the highest potential antioxidant activity, that was 94.67 ppm with total flavonoids 51.00 mgQE/g extract, total phenol 63.36 mgGAE/g extract, and total tannins 41.89 mgTAE/g extract. It can be concluded that the variety of drying strategy has a significant impact (p<0.05) on the bioactive content and antioxidant activity of the suruhan herb.
