Thermal processing of raspberry pulp: Effect on the color and bioactive compounds
The effect of heating on color degradation and the bioactive compounds, such as total monomeric anthocyanins (TMA), L-ascorbic acid (AA) and total polyphenols (TP), of raspberry pulp were investigated at 70, 80, 90 and 100 °C for 2 h. The changes in a* (redness-greenness), chroma (C*) and browning index (BI) color parameters followed a first-order reaction with activation energies of 39.39, 35.60 and 51.17 kJ mol−1, respectively. The degradation of TMA and AA also followed first order kinetics while TP did not show significant variations with thermal treatment. The activation energies of the TMA and AA changes were 28.36 and 29.47 kJ mol−1, respectively. In addition, the activation energies revealed that BI was the most sensitive parameter towards temperature changes, while the reaction rate constants (k) showed that AA had the highest degradation rate in comparison with the other parameters studied. The degradation of TMA showed a strong positive correlation with a*. The results obtained in this study may be useful to food processors for designing and optimizing thermal treatment conditions in order to obtain high quality raspberry pulp products.Fil: Badin, Emiliano Emanuel.

Fumigant toxicity of Citrus sinensis essential oil on Musca domestica L. adults in the absence and presence of a P450 inhibitor
Essential oils (EOs) are potential tools for controlling Musca domestica L. In a fumigant assay, M. domestica adults treated with Citrus sinensis EO (LC50 = 3.9 mg/dm3), with (4R)(+)-limonene (95.1%) being its main component, died within 15 min or less. The terpenes absorbed by the flies and their metabolites, analyzed using SPME fiber, were (4R)(+)-limonene (LC50 = 6.2 mg/dm3), α-pinene (LC50 = 11.5 mg/dm3), β-pinene (LC50 = 6.4 mg/dm3), and two new components, carveol (LC50 = 1122 mg/dm3) and carvone (LC50 = 19 mg/dm3), in a proportion of 50, 6.2, 12.5, 6.3 and 25%, respectively. Carveol and carvone were formed by oxidation of (4R)(+)-limonene mediated by cytochrome P450, as was suggested by a fumigation assay on flies previously treated with piperonyl butoxide, a P450 inhibitor. In this experiment, an increase in the toxicity of the EO and (4R)(+)-limonene was observed, as well as a lower production of carveol and carvone.Fil: Rossi, Yanina Estefanía.

Insecticidal toxicity of Eucalyptus cinerea essential oil and 1,8-cineole against Musca domestica and possible uses according to the metabolic response of flies
In a fumigant assay, Musca domestica adults treated with Eucalyptus cinerea EO [LC50 = 5.5 mg/dm3; majority component by SPME–GC: 1,8-cineole (88.5%), α-pinene (2%), α-terpineol (9%)], died within 15 min or less. The terpenes absorbed by the flies and their metabolites, analyzed using SPME fiber, were 1,8-cineole (LC50 = 3.3 mg/dm3), α-pinene (LC50 = 11.5 mg/dm3), α-terpineol (LC50 = 36.8 mg/dm3) and a new component 2,3-dehydro-1,8-cineole, in proportions of 74%, 0.1%, 24.7% and 1.2% respectively. 2,3-Dehydro-1,8-cineole and α-terpineol were formed by oxidation of 1,8-cineole mediated by cytochrome P450, as demonstrated by a fumigation assay on flies previously treated with piperonyl butoxide, a P450 inhibitor, which showed an increase in toxicity of the EO and 1,8-cineole, supporting its participation in the formation of metabolites. We also demonstrated that 1,8-cineole acts as a P450 inhibitor-like compound, improving the toxicity of other xenobiotics such as deltamethrin.Fil: Rossi, Yanina Estefanía.

Molecular response of Musca domestica L. to Mintostachys verticillata essential oil, (4R)(+)-pulegone and menthone
Intense applications of synthetic insecticides for the control of adult Musca domestica have led to the insects developing resistance to most of them. In consequence, there is interest in new active ingredients as alternatives to conventional insecticides. Essential oils (EO) are potential tools for controlling M. domestica because of their effectiveness and their minimal environmental effects. In a fumigant assay, M. domestica adults treated with Minthostachys verticillata EO [LC50 = 0.5 mg/dm3; majority components by SPME-GC: (4R)(+)-pulegone (67.5%), menthone (22.3%) and (4R)(+)-limonene (3.8%)], died within 15 min or less. The terpenes absorbed by the flies and their metabolites, analyzed using SPME fiber, were (4R)(+)-limonene (LC50 = 6.2 mg/dm3), menthone (LC 50 = 1.9 mg/dm3), (4R)(+)-pulegone (LC50 = 1.7 mg/dm3) and a new component, menthofuran (LC50 = 0.3 mg/dm3), in a relative proportion of 12.4, 6.5, 35.9 and 44.2% respectively. Menthofuran was formed by oxidation of either (4R)(+)-pulegone or menthone mediated by cytochrome P450, as demonstrated by a fumigation assay on flies previously treated with piperonyl butoxide, a P450 inhibitor, which showed a decrease in toxicity of the EO, (4R)(+)-pulegone and of menthone, supporting the participation of the P450 oxidizing system in the formation of menthofuran. The enzymatic reaction of isolated fly microsomes with the EO or the (4R)(+)-pulegone produced menthofuran in both cases. Contrary to expectations, the insect detoxification system contributed to enhance the toxicity of the M. verticillata EO. Consequently, resistant strains overexpressing P450 genes will be more susceptible to either M. verticillata EO or (4R)(+)-pulegone and menthone.Fil: Rossi, Yanina Estefanía.

Insecticidal effect of Cryptocarya alba essential oil on the housefly, Musca domestica L.
The composition of the essential oil (EO) from Cryptocarya alba obtained by hydro distillation of fresh leaves was analyzed using gas chromatography (GC) and gas chromatography/mass spectrosmetry (GC/MS). The insecticidal effect of the oil on the house fly Musca domestica was evaluated by placing flies in a sealed glass jar containing a piece of EO-treated cotton yarn. The dose necessary to kill 50% of flies (LC50) in 0.5 and 1 h was determined at 26 ± 1 °C. The essential oil from Cryptocarya alba showed significant insecticidal properties [33.56 (7.06-159.50) mg/dm3 (0.5 h) and 15.07 (5.29-42.91) mg/dm3 (1 h)]. According to GC and GC/MS analysis a total of 38 compounds were identified. The composition of the Cryptocarya alba essential oil reported in this study is different to that reported in other publications with 4-terpineol (17.48%) ; 4- (3,3-dimethyl-but-1-ynyl) -4-hydroxy-2,6,6-trimethylcyclohex-2-enone (12.84%); 1,8-cineole (7.90%); p-cymene (7.11%) and sabinene (6.80%), accounting for 52.13% of the EO. The EO from Cryptocarya alba appears promising as a natural insecticide against houseflies.

Extraction of antioxidant polyphenolic compounds from peanut skin using water-ethanol at high pressure and temperature conditions
This study evaluates the feasibility of using sub-critical water extraction (SWE) processes to obtain antioxidant phenolic compounds from peanut skins. Theoretical models were tested against experimental data in order to optimize extraction conditions and antioxidant activity of target compounds. The maximum concentration of total phenolics was achieved by using 60.5% ethanol as co-solvent, at 220 °C extraction temperature and 7 g/min solvent flow. Under these extraction conditions, a large number and variety of polyphenols were identified. Phenolic profile was dominated largely by monomeric and condensed flavonoids, particularly procyanidin and proanthocyanidin oligomers. Extracts obtained under those conditions also gave the best radical scavenging capacities, which were higher to those reached by using a synthetic antioxidant (BHT, butylhydroxytoluene). Kinetic studies showed a high extraction rate of polyphenols until the first 30 min of extraction, and it was in parallel with the highest antioxidant activity.Fil: Bodoira, Romina Mariana.

An overview on extraction, composition, bioactivity and food applications of peanut phenolics
Peanuts contain a diverse and vast array of phenolic compounds having important biological properties. They are allocated mostly in the seed coat (skin), an industrial waste with minor and undervalued applications. In the last few years, a considerable amount of scientific knowledge about extraction, composition, bioactivities and health benefits of peanut skin phenolics has been generated. The present review was focused on four main aspects: a) extraction methods and technologies for obtaining peanut skin phenolics with an emphasis on green-solvent extraction processes; b) variations in chemical profiles including those due to genetic variability, extraction methodologies and process-related issues; c) bioactive properties, especially antioxidant activities in food and biological systems; d) update of promising food applications. The revision was also aimed at identifying areas where knowledge is insufficient and to set priorities for further research.Fil: Bodoira, Romina Mariana.

Impact of storage conditions on the composition and antioxidant activity of peanut skin phenolic-based extract
With a view to its potential application as a food antioxidant, this study evaluated the impact of storage conditions (ReTD: darkness, 4 °C; RoTD: darkness, 25 °C; RoTL: light, 25 °C) on the composition and antioxidant activity of a peanut skin phenolic-based extract (PSE). Results showed that the composition and several selected antioxidant capacities of PSE were preserved when stored in ReTD. Under these conditions, most of the identified compounds did not show significant losses in concentration at the final storage time (12 months). When tested in a highly unsaturated lipid system, this extract also showed the same antioxidant efficacy as the original extract (t0). Meanwhile, reducing power and radical scavenging activities of PSE stored in darkness were virtually retained; irrespective of the temperature condition, the parameters analysed remained almost constant over all the storage time. Overall, the results highlight the importance of the dark condition as a key factor for the PSE's composition and antioxidant activity preservation. In conclusion, the research findings suggest simple and low-cost conditions that guarantee the conservation of the PSE composition and the continuity of its antioxidant properties during prolonged storage.Fil: Bodoira, Romina Mariana.
