Mediterranean non-cultivated vegetables as dietary sources of compounds with an...
Morales, Patricia; Ferreira, Isabel C.F.R.; Carvalho, Ana Maria; Sánchez Mata, María de Cortés; Cámara Hurtado, Montaña; Fernández-Ruiz, VirginiaNon-cultivated vegetables whose basal leaves have been traditionally consumed in Spain were evaluated for their potential in human nutrition, considering vitamin C, organic acids, tocopherols, phenolics and flavonoids, and antioxidant activity. As far as we know, this is the first report on organic acids and vitamin C of Anchusa azurea and Apium nodiflorum, on tocopherols of Anchusa azurea, Beta vulgaris, Chond...
Nutrients, phytochemicals and antioxidant activity in wild populations of Alliu...
García-Herrera, Patricia; Morales, Patricia; Fernández-Ruiz, Virginia; Sánchez-Mata, M.C; Cámara Hurtado, Montaña; Carvalho, Ana MariaWild Allium species with a long tradition of use, such as Allium ampeloprasum L. could provide interesting bioactive compounds to current diet. The nutrient and bioactive compound content of this wild vegetable has been scarcely known. Therefore, the aim of this work is to provide a detailed chemical quantification of nutrients, hydrophilic and lipophilic bioactive compounds and the antioxidant capacity of the ...
Castanea sativa Mill. flowers amongst the most powerful antioxidant matrices: a...
Carocho, Márcio; Barros, Lillian; Bento, Albino; Santos-Buelga, Celestino; Morales, Patricia; Ferreira, Isabel C.F.R.Infusions and decoction of chestnut tree flowers have been used for different medical purposes, but their phytochemical profile and antioxidant activity are still mostly unknown. Herein, decoctions and infusions of flowers from the two most appreciated chestnut cultivars (longal and judia) in Tr´as-os-Montes, Portugal, were prepared and characterized with regard to their content in free sugars, organic acids, a...
Wild edible fruits as a potential source of phytochemicals with capacity to inh...
Morales, Patricia; Ferreira, Isabel C.F.R.; Carvalho, Ana Maria; Fernández-Ruiz, Virginia; Sánchez Mata, María de Cortés; Cámara Hurtado, MontañaThe edible fruits of four wild small trees or shrubs (Arbutus unedo, Crataegus monogyna, Prunus spinosa and Rubus ulmifolius) traditionally consumed in the Iberian Peninsula were studied to evaluate their potential for human nutrition, considering their content in bioactive compounds. Lipophilic phytochemicals, such as fatty acids and tocopherols, as well as some hydrophilic antioxidants, such as vitamin C (asc...
Evaluación nutricional y de la actividad biológica de los bulbos silvestres de ...
García-Herrera, P.; Morales, Patricia; Fernández-Ruiz, Virginia; Sánchez Mata, María de Cortés; Cámara Hurtado, Montaña; Carvalho, Ana MariaAllium ampeloprasum L. posee un gran potencial nutricional con presencia de compuestos antioxidantes de interés para la salud. Diversos estudios epidemiológicos han demostrado los efectos beneficiosos del consumo de diversas especies pertenecientes al género Allium, destacando sus efectos anticancerígenos. En el presente trabajo se estudia el contenido de nutrientes (hidratos de carbono, proteínas, grasa y mine...
Valoración de la actividad antioxidante de verduras silvestres
Morales, Patricia; Fernández-Ruiz, Virginia; Sánchez Mata, María de Cortés; Cámara Hurtado, Montaña; Carvalho, Ana Maria; Pardo de Santayana, ManuelEn los últimos años se han llevado a cabo diversos estudios para evaluar el potencial nutricional y funcional de las plantas silvestres comestibles. Algunas de ellas son una buena fuente de compuestos bioactivos y han demostrado tener una interesante actividad biológica como antioxidantes. Por ello, este trabajo tiene como objetivo principal evaluar la actividad biológica in vitro de la parte comestible de 20 ...

García-Herrera, P.; Morales, Patricia; Fernández-Ruiz, Virginia; Sánchez Mata, María de Cortés; Cámara Hurtado, Montaña; Carvalho, Ana MariaLas plantas silvestres comestibles representan una interesante alternativa en alimentación, por ser fuentes de colores y sabores inusuales, así como por su composición química y nutricional. En concreto, Allium ampeloprasum L. posee un gran potencial nutricional con presencia de compuestos antioxidantes de interés para la salud. Diversos estudios epidemiológicos han demostrado los efectos beneficiosos del consu...

Chromatographic analysis of fatty acids and sugars in traditional pastry from T...
Carocho, Márcio; Barros, Lillian; Morales, Patricia; Ferreira, Isabel C.F.R.The Tras-os-Montes region of Portugal is rich for its tasty and varied gastronomy, namely past ry and deserts. Among them, the "economicos" (economicals), are small cakes made from wheat flower, olive oil, eggs, margarine, sugar and firewater. These famous cakes have never been adequately studied before, and our research group is about to start investigating this traditional food f rom this region of Portugal a...
Tocopherols and fatty acids profile of Spanish clementins
Morales, Patricia; Barros, Lillian; Fernandes, Ângela; Cámara Hurtado, Montaña; Ferreira, Isabel C.F.R.Citrus fruits consumption, and particularly clementins, is important in health promotion mainly due to the presence of numerous bioactive and functional compounds such as vitamin C (mainly as ascorbic acid), carotenoids and fiber [1]. Related to lipid fraction, tocopherols and fatty acids stand out as interesting bioactive compounds involved in lipid peroxidation inhibition process. The peel and pulp of three v...
