Determination of Total Phenolic Acids in Grape Juice

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
The total phenolic acid content (TPC) of the grape juice samples was determined according to the method suggested by Pankaj and Wan (2017) in a previous study [35 (link)]. Briefly, 0.5 mL of standard solution or sample was mixed with 1 mL of Folin–Ciocalteu reagent. After 6 min of incubation at room temperature, 2 mL of sodium carbonate solution (20%) was added. The mixture was placed for 60 min at 30 °C. Finally, the absorbance of the samples was recorded at 760 nm against the blank using a spectrophotometer (Shimadzu UV–Vis Mini 1240, Tokyo, Japan). The TPC was determined by a suitable calibration curve (6.25–100 μg/mL) and reported as μg of gallic acid equivalents/mL [35 (link)].

In order to conduct adsorption tests, a known quantity of the organ clay was agitated in 25 mL of diclofenac sodium (DS) solution in a temperature-controlled shaker (Lab Companion, SI-600R) (Fig. 1a). The samples were taken at scheduled intervals, centrifuged for 10 min, and then filtered using 0.45 μm hydrophilic membrane filters.23 (link) We utilized a UV-Visible spectrophotometer to measure the concentration of the DS solution both before and after adsorption (UV-Vis mini 1240, Shimadzu, Brazil) at the wavelength of 276 nm (Fig. 1b). The amount of adsorbed DS, qt (mmol g−1), and removal efficiency was obtained at a given time (t), as eqn (1) and (2) shows:

The TPC and TTC in the hydroethanolic extracts were determined by a modified method of Folin-Ciocalteu (Amorim et al. 2008) . Initially, 10mL of the extractive solution was diluted 10 times in a volumetric flask. An aliquot of 0.33mL of the diluted extractive solution was homogenized with 0.7mL of the Folin-Ciocalteu solution (10% v/v) and 1 mL. of sodium carbonate (7.5% v/v) in a 10mL volumetric flask that was completed with deionized water. Solutions were incubated at 27°C for 30 min absorbances were measured at 706 nm (UV/Vis-mini-1240, Shimadzu ® ). Absorbances were compared to an analytical curve of tannic acid and TPC was determined.
For TTC, 1g casein was complexed with 6mL of the diluted extract solution and another 12mL of water in an Erlenmeyer flask during 30 minutes under constant stirring. The complex was filtered and 0.3 mL of the supernatant was homogenized with 0.7 mL of the Folin-Ciocalteu Table I. Independent factors and levels employed in the Box-Behnken experimental design for optimizing TPC and TTC (mg TAE g -1 ext) in the liquid extract from S. cumini leaves through microwave-assisted extraction.

Quantifying Alginate Hydrogel Degradation

In vitro degradation was determined on 5 ml alginate-hydrogel, laid gently on the bottom of a beaker. After adding 4 ml double-distilled water over its layer, the beaker was placed in an incubator at 37 C; 3 ml of the supernatant liquid was sampled at 1, 3, 6, 12 and 24 h, and daily thereafter for a total of 8 days. The spectra were recorded with a UV-visible photometer (UV-Vis mini 1240, Spectrophotometer, Shimadzu, Kyoto, Japan), and the absorption bands between 240 and 300 nm, characteristic of the alginate components (Nagasawa et al., 2000) , were recorded. The concentration of alginate in the samples was calculated after fitting a calibration-curve from maximal absorption values.

The TPC was specified by use of the Folin-Ciocalteu method with micro scale protocol (Waterhouse, 2002) (link). Briefly, 40 µl of raisin extract or gallic acid standards (50-500 mg l -1 ), 200 µl of Folin-Ciocalteau reagent and 3.16 ml of water were pipetted into a 4 ml spectrophotometer cuvette. After 3-4 min, 600 µl solution of Na2CO3 (20%) were added. The content was held at room temperature for 2 h, with using a spectrophotometer, at 765nm against a blank, the absorbance of the sample was determined (Shimadzu UV-Vis Mini 1240, Tokyo, Japan). TPC was specified as mg gallic acid equivalent per gram of dried sample (mg GAE g -1 dw).

Aronia/Pollen Antioxidant Capacity Evaluation

The antioxidant capacity of the Aronia/pollen extract was evaluated based on the reduction of Fe3+ from tripyridyltriazine Fe(TPTZ)3+ complex to the blue-colored complex-Fe(TPTZ)2+ in an acidic medium [77 (link)]. The working FRAP solution was freshly prepared by mixing acetate buffer, FeCl3•6H2O solution and TPTZ solution at the ratio 10:1:1 (v/v/v). The Aronia/pollen extract (100 µL) was allowed to react with 500 µL FRAP working solution and 2 mL distilled water for 1 h in the dark. The final product (ferrous tripyridyltriazine complex) was quantified via VIS absorption (Shimadzu 1240 mini UV-Vis) at 595 nm. The results are expressed in μmol TE/g dw.

Total phenolic content was determined using the Folin–Ciocalteu method [32 ]. In short, each peppermint extract (100 μL) was mixed with 1700 μL of distilled water, 200 μL of Folin–Ciocalteu reagent (freshly prepared, dilution 1:10, v/v), and 1000 μL of 7.5% Na2CO3 solution, and the mixture was kept at room temperature, in the dark, for 2 h. The absorbance was measured at 765 nm using a spectrophotometer (Shimadzu 1240 mini UV–Vis, Kyoto, Japan). Different concentrations of gallic acid (between 0.1–0.5 mg/mL) were used as a standard for the reference curve (y = 27.637x + 0.0069, R2 = 0.999) and the results were expressed in mg gallic acid equivalents (GAE)/100 g dw.

About PubCompare

Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.

We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.

However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
