Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Hazelnut skins (Tonda Gentile Romana and Tonda di Giffoni variety) were obtained from a local producer (Bionocciola srl, Carbognano, Viterbo, Italy) after roasting hazelnuts at 150 °C for 24 min. To measure the antioxidant activity, total polyphenol, and total flavonoid contents, 0.5 g of two varieties of Tuscia hazelnut skins were extracted with a solvent consisting of methanol:water (80:20, v/v) in a ratio 1:20. A total of 20 mg of two varieties of Tuscia hazelnuts skins were used for metabolomics analysis. The 1:25 mixture was shaken at room temperature for 2 h, and then centrifuged at 1000× g for 10 min, the supernatant was used for all analyses. All chemicals used were of analytical grade and were purchased from Sigma Aldrich (Milano, Italy). Stock standard solutions of phenolic compounds were prepared by rigorous dissolution of the commercial reagent in methanol.

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.
