Objective: An experiment was conducted to assess the effect of dragon fruit peel pellet (DFPP) as a rumen enhancer of dry matter consumption, nutrient digestibilities, ruminal ecology, microbial protein synthesis and rumimal methane production in Holstein crossbred bulls. Methods: Four animals, with an average live-weight of 200±20 kg were randomly assigned in a 4×4 Latin square design to investigate the influence of DFPP supplementation. There were four different dietary treatments: without DFPP, and with 200, 300, and 400 g/h/d, respectively. Results: Results revealed that dry matter consumption of total intake, rice straw and concentrate were not significantly different among treatments (p>0.05). It was also found that ruminal pH was not different among treatments (p>0.05), whilst protozoal group was reduced when DFPP increased (p<0.01). Blood urea nitrogen and NH3-N concentrations were increased at 400 g of DFPP supplementation (p<0.01). Additionally, volatile fatty acid production of propionate was significantly enhanced by the DFPP supplementation (p<0.05), while production of methane was consequently decreased (p<0.05). Furthermore, microbial protein synthesis and urinary purine derivatives were remarkably increased especially at 400 g of DFPP supplementation (p<0.05). Conclusion: Plant secondary compounds or phytonutrients (PTN) containing saponins (SP) and condensed tannins (CT) have been reported to influence rumen fermentation. DFPP contains both CT and SP as a PTN. The addition of 400 g of DFPP resulted in improved rumen fermentation end-products especially propionate (C3) and microbial protein synthesis. Therefore, DFPP is a promising rumen enhancer and indicated a significant potential of DFPP as feedstuff for ruminant feed to mitigate rumen methane production.
This study was conducted to determine whether Diospyros lotus L. fruit could be used as a natural functional food ingredient and whether its use should be increased. D. lotus fruit powder was found to have high acidity in the immature IDL stage and significantly higher sugar content in the mature MDL stage. The levels of crude fat, selenium, and tannins decreased significantly from the IDL stage to the MDL stage in D. lotus fruit powder. However, the levels of magnesium and calcium were significantly greater in the MDL stage than in the IDL stage (p<0.05). The total phenol content was significantly higher in the IDL stage, but the DPPH radical scavenging activity significantly increased in the MDL stage (p<0.05). In conclusion, the fruits of D. lotus. have high nutritional quality in both the immature and mature growth stages. Thus, it is a good candidate for use as a functional food, and its use should be increased because of its high nutritional qualities.
Herein, water and ethanol extracts were obtained from the leaves, branches, kernels, and pericarp of Quercus gilva and subsequently analyzed for antioxidant activity and circadian rhythm regulation effects. Candidate components that may affect circadian rhythm and antioxidant activity were investigated to discover potential functional materials. Antioxidant activity was analyzed via 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) and 2,2'-azino-bis (3-ethylbenzothiazoline-6-sulfonic acid) (ABTS) radical scavenging activity assays, showing that the hot water extract exhibited higher activity than that of the ethanol extract. In particular, the branch extract showed high antioxidant activity. By measuring total contents of polyphenols, flavonoids, and tannins, the hot water branch extract showed the highest concentrations, highlighting their significant contribution to the antioxidant activity. Examination of the circadian rhythm regulation of each extract showed that the ethanol extract exhibited greater impacts on the circadian rhythm amplitude compared to the water extract. The branch ethanol extract induced circadian rhythm amplitude changes via clock gene Bmal1 expression regulation. Determination of 12 phenolic compound concentrations showed that the branch ethanol extract contained many phenolic compounds, including catechin. This suggests that these com- pounds affected circadian rhythm regulation. In conclusion, the hot water branch extract has potential as an natural antioxidant material, while the corresponding ethanol extract has potential as a functional material for regulating circadian rhythm.
This study was conducted to verify the availability of immature persimmon ethanol extract (IPEE) as a natural and functional ingredient in protecting inflammation and allergy of skin based on the mechanism. The major content analysis, antioxidant activities, anti-allergic activity, anti-inflammatory effect, and safety related to irritation of IPEE were evaluated. The gallic acid content per 10 mg/mL of IPEE was 0.522% (5.22 mg/g). The total polyphenol and flavonoid contents were 428.3 mg/g and 31.1 mg/g, respectively. In ABTS+ activity, DPPH ability and SOD-like activity, it showed a concentration-dependent increase, which indicated IPEE has excellent antioxidant activities. As for the anti-allergy test in RBL-2H3 cells, the IPEE showed a decrease in β-hexosaminidase secretion as the concentration increases, and IPEE tended to decrease IL-4 secretion in all RBL-2H3 cells compared to the IgE + HSA group. IPEE showed good anti-inflammatory effect in RAW 264.7 cells by decrease of NO production and inflammation cytokines (TNF-α and IL-6). Also IPEE showed non-irritant in BCOP assay. By the results of this study, the IPEE containing high tannins, had good antioxidant, anti-allergic, and anti-inflammatory effects, which indicated that the immature persimmon is considered to be a useful for the development of related functional ingredients.

This study aimed to explore the biodiversity of chemical compounds found in the bark of Guibourtia tessmannii from Gabon, commonly called Kévazingo, and evaluate their anti-termite activity to determine their potential values as a source of development of anti-termite products that can be valued in the fields of fine chemicals and wood preservation. Extraction of G. tessmannii bark powders was carried out using the cold maceration method with trichloroethylene, acetone, ethanol, and water. Phytochemical screening made it possible to highlight groups of chemical families present in the extracts. Anti-termite activity was tested on the wild termites "Cubitermes sp" of the genus Isoptera. The yield of the extracts were 17.11% for the buttress and 13.42% for the height at 6 m. Phytochemical tests revealed that alkaloids, polyphenols, sterols, tannins, reducing compounds, flavonoids, saponins, and anthraquinones were present in the extracts. Results of anti-termite activity indicated that anti-termite activity varied with the different parts of the bark studied, extraction solvent, and concentration (50/50) and (25/75) of the extracts used. The extracts at 50/50 concentration showed a slightly better anti-termite activity compared to the 25/75 concentration. In addition, the buttress Kévazingo or buttress showed the strongest anti-termite activity for the aqueous extract with a survival rate of 0% after 2 days.

In this study, 139 Korean landrace sorghum germplasms collected in 10 different Korean regions were analyzed for tannin, total phenolic contents(TPC), and antioxidant activities using three assays including ABTS, DPPH, and FRAP. The Korean landrace sorghums showed significant variations of metabolite contents and antioxidant activities by collection regions. Gyeonggi sorghum had the highest tannin and TPC contents with 273.73%, 7.395mgGAE/g, respectively. Therefore, three assays of antioxidant activities of Gyeonggi sorghum, which is highly related to tannin and TPC, were also significantly higher than others. However, Gyeongnam sorghums showed the lowest tannin and TPC with 148.34% and 3.482mgGAE/g, thus, three antioxidnat activities showed the lowest levels. Three accessions(IT322580, IT340261 and IT329053) had the highest tannin levels over 400%, but, two accessions (IT322613, IT270366) showed less than 1% of tannin content. Four accessions (IT270349, IT286448, IT331878, and IT251882) showed the highest level of TPC over 9mgGAE/g. In this study, antioxidant activities with three assays were strongly related to tannins and TPC, and TPC showed higher significance than tannin with all three antioxidant activities. The germplasms with the highest overall antioxidant activity were IT270349, IT340261, and IT286448, which had the highest levels of tannin and TPC. The principal component analysis presented that 2 sub-populations were divided. Gyeonggi and Gangwon Yeongseo sorghums, which had high metabolite contents and antioxidant activity levels, were mainly included in group 1. Gyeongnam and Jeonnam sorghums, which had low metabolite and antioxidant activity levels, were mainly included in group 2. This results could contribute to discover breeding metarials for the development of functional sorghum varieties.
This study investigated the antioxidant activity of Aronia vinegar during acetic acid fermentation. As a result of acetic acid fermentation at 30℃ for 30 days with different initial ethanol contents, it was found that adjusting the initial ethanol content to 6% was optimal, at which 4.1% of acetic acid was produced. During fermentation under optimal conditions, the total polyphenol content decreased, but the content was higher than that of the control brown rice vinegar but lower than that of grape vinegar. The contents of flavonoids and tannins showed a decreasing pattern as acetic acid fermentation progressed, but they were higher than those of brown rice vinegar and grape vinegar. The DPPH scavenging activity was higher than 95.7% in all test groups, indicating that it would be possible to produce high-quality Aronia vinegar using the acetic acid fermentation method.

Sea buckthorn (Hippophae rhamnoides L.) is a well-known and rich source of biologically active compounds, such as flavonoids, carotenoids, steroids, vitamins, tannins, and oleic acid. The effects of sea buckthorn fruit extract (SBFE) on ultraviolet (UV)-induced cell death was investigated in SK-MEL-2 cells cotreated with UV and a low concentration (LoC), medium concentration (MeC), or high concentration (HiC) of SBFE. Cell viability gradually decreased in accordance with an increase in the UV dose. The cell viability of the UV+SBFE cotreated cells increased significantly compared to that of UV+vehicle-treated cells during the application of an appropriate UV radiation dose (400 mJ). In addition, the number of 4',6-diamidino-2-phenylindole (DAPI), propidium iodine (PI)-, and annexin V-stained apoptotic cells was higher in the UV+vehicle-treated cells than in the UV untreated cells. The decrease of apoptotic cell numbers varied in each treated group, but it was most significant in the SBFE-treated group. The number of PI-stained cells dramatically decreased in accordance with the concentration of SBFE, and the maximum decrease was detected in the UV+HiC-treated group. In addition, Bax expression increased and Bcl-2 expression decreased in the SBFE-treated group compared with the UV-only treated group. The level of caspase-3 remained constant in all the groups. These results suggest that SBFE may contribute to a recovery from UV-induced cell death through the regulation of apoptotic protein expression and that it may have potential therapeutic utility in ameliorating UV-induced skin ageing.
