Determination of Terpene Profile in Cape gooseberry (Physalis peruviana L.) with Use of HS-SPME/GCxGC-TOFMS Method
PublicationFresh fruits and products made of them, especially fruit juice, provide the basic energetic substances (simple and complex sugars) and are a source of health beneficial vitamins, macro and microelements, antioxidants and compounds which are classified together with essential oils (for example terpenes), which positively affect human s health. The terpenes profile of cape gooseberry was determined by headspace solid--phase microextraction...

Determination of terpene profiles in potential superfruits
PublicationThe aim of this work was to characterize and compare the profiles of volatile terpenes in four potential superfruits. These profiles were determined using headspace solid-phase microextraction coupled with comprehensive two-dimensional gas chromatography linked to time-of-flight mass spectrometry. The proposed technique allowed the separation and identification of 79 terpenes present in cape gooseberry, crabapple, cherry silver...

In-tube extraction for the determination of the main volatile compounds in Physalis peruviana L
PublicationAn analytical procedure based on in-tube extraction followed by gas chromatography with mass spectrometry has been developed for the analysis of 24 main volatile components in cape gooseberry (Physalis peruviana L.) samples. According to their chemical structure, the compounds were organized into different groups: one hydrocarbon, one aldehyde, four alcohols, four esters, and 14 monoterpenes. By single-factor experiments, incubation...

In Vitro Studies on the Relationship Between the Antioxidant Activities of Some Berry Extracts and Their Binding Properties to Serum Albumin
PublicationThe aim of this study was to investigate the possibility to use the bioactive components from cape gooseberry (Physalis peruviana), blueberry (Vaccinium corymbosum), and cranberry (Vaccinium macrocarpon) extracts as a novel source against oxidation in food supplementation. The quantitative analysis of bioactive compounds (polyphenols, flavonoids, flavanols, carotenoids, and chlorophyll) was based on radical scavenging spectrophometric assays...
