Title: | Utilisation of tomato waste as a source of polyphenolic antioxidants | Authors: | Stajčić, Slađana Ćetković, Gordana Čanadanović-Brunet, Jasna Đilas, Sonja |
Issue Date: | 1-Dec-2010 | Publisher: | Novi Sad: University of Novi Sad, Faculty of Technology, Novi Sad | Journal: | Acta Periodica Technologica | Abstract: | This study is concerned with the effects of two extraction procedures (using ultrasonic bath and high performance homogenizer) on the extraction efficiency of polyphenolics present in the tomato waste. The isolation of flavonoid fraction of obtained extracts was performed by solid-phase extraction. The antioxidant activity of flavonoid fractions was determined using different spectrophotometry tests, including reducing power and 2,2diphenyl-l- piciylhydrazyl (DPPH) free radical scavenging assays. The content of total polyphenolics and flavonoids in extract obtained employing homogenizer (E2) was higher than in the extract obtained employing ultrasonic bath (El), and it was 14.33 mg/g and 7.70 mg/g, respectively. The flavonoid fraction (EF2) of extract E2 showed higher antioxidant activity than flavonoid fraction (EFI) of extract El. The DPPH free radical scavenging activity of fractions EFI and EF2, expressed as EC50 value, were 0.78 mg/ml and 0.45 mg/ml, respectively. The obtained results show that tomato wastes can be used as an easily accessible source of antioxidant polyphenolics. | URI: | https://open.uns.ac.rs/handle/123456789/11295 | ISSN: | 14507188 | DOI: | 10.2298/APT1041187S |
