Article Abstract

Unlabelled: The rise in global coffee consumption has increased spent coffee grounds (SCG), a by-product rich in bioactive compounds. This study compared the anti-adipogenic and antioxidant activities of SCG extracts before (SCG) and after fermentation (FSCG) with . SCG showed higher antioxidant activity and total polyphenol content than FSCG. In vitro studies on 3T3-L1 adipocytes revealed that SCG significantly inhibited lipid accumulation and downregulated key adipogenic markers (PPARγ, C/EBPα, adiponectin) in a dose-dependent manner, while FSCG had limited effects. Thin-layer chromatography indicated fermentation decreased chlorogenic acid and increased caffeic acid, suggesting structural changes in bioactive compounds. The superior anti-adipogenic effect of SCG is likely due to chlorogenic acid, which degrades during fermentation. These findings highlight SCG's potential as a functional food ingredient with anti-obesity and antioxidant properties.

Aster incisus is a perennial herbaceous plant belonging to the Asteraceae family, known for its pharmacologically active secondary metabolites. In this study, we conducted a comparative profiling and quantification of secondary metabolites in A. incisus extracts cultivated in two regions, Eumseong (AIE) and Inje (AII), using liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) and high-performance liquid chromatography with a variable wavelength detector (HPLC/VW).

The growing interest in prebiotic ingredients has led to the valorization of agri-food by-products, such as coffee silverskin, known for its richness in dietary fiber and health-promoting compounds. This study evaluated the impact of in vitro simulation of gastrointestinal digestion on the chemical composition (carbohydrates, caffeine, and chlorogenic acids) and prebiotic potential (probiotic growth, organic acid production, pH, and antioxidant activity) of milled coffee silverskin. The results show stability of polysaccharides during digestion, while caffeine and 5-caffeoylquinic acid were partially released into the bioaccessible fraction.

Phenolic Profile as a Powerful Machine Learning Tool for Identification, Traceability, and Quality Control of Olive Cultivars.

This study investigates the phenolic and fatty acid profiles of olives from four cultivars (Arbequina, Arbosana, Frantene, and Koroneiki), widely grown in the Mediterranean region and collected at different ripening stages in Italy. The aim was to assess the potential of olive chemical profiles as markers for cultivar classification using machine learning algorithms, including Linear Discriminant Analysis (LDA), K-Nearest Neighbors (KNN), Naive Bayes (NB), Random Forest (RF), and Support Vector Machine (SVM). Results showed that phenolic profiling achieved significantly higher classification accuracy than fatty acids across all models.

Chlorogenic acid (5-CQA) is a caffeic acid ester widely accumulated in higher plants. It plays roles in defense against biotic and abiotic stresses. As its biosynthetic pathway shares common enzymes and intermediates with that of lignin, 5-CQA has long been hypothesized to be involved in lignin formation.

Rationale: Chixiaodou Danggui San (CDS), composed of Vignae semen (VS) and Angelicae sinensis radix (ASR), has been utilized for the treatment of hemorrhoids in China. However, the chemical profiling of CDS remains insufficiently explored. Therefore, it is necessary to establish an accurate and rapid method for the chemical profiling of CDS.
