20.500.12556/RUL-159014 Mint-scented species in Lamiaceae an abundant and varied reservoir of phenolic and volatile compounds This investigation aimed to identify the most favorable cultivar based on plant metabolites for potential targeted cultivation in the pharmaceutical industry. The analysis revealed the presence of 19 individual phenolics and 80 individual volatiles across the cultivars, a breadth of data not previously explored to such an extent. Flavones emerged as the predominant phenolic group in all mint-scented cultivars, except for peppermint, where hydroxycinnamic acids dominated. Peppermint exhibited high concentrations of phenolic acids, particularly caffeic acid derivatives and rosmarinic acid, which are known for their anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties. Luteolinrich concentrations were found in several mint varieties, known for their antioxidative, antitumor, and cardio-protective properties. Swiss mint and spearmint stood out with elevated levels of flavanones, particularly eriocitrin, akin to citrus fruits. Monoterpene volatiles, including menthol, camphor, limonene, and carvone, were identified across all cultivars, with Swiss mint and spearmint exhibiting the highest amounts. The study underscores the potential for targeted cultivation to enhance volatile yields and reduce agricultural land use. Notably, chocolate mint demonstrated promise for volatile content, while apple mint excelled in phenolics, suggesting their potential for broader agricultural, pharmaceutical, and food industry production. cultivars metabolomics mint HPLC/MS volatiles phenolics meta Lamiaceae sorte kemična sestava fenolne spojine hlapne spojine true false true Angleški jezik Slovenski jezik Članek v reviji 2024-06-27 14:44:22 2024-06-27 14:44:27 2024-07-07 03:37:13 0000-00-00 00:00:00 2024 0 0 18 str. iss. 12, art. 1857 Vol. 13 2024 0000-00-00 Zaloznikova Objavljeno NiDoloceno 0000-00-00 0000-00-00 0000-00-00 631 2304-8158 10.3390/ foods13121857 200044035 foods-13-01857.pdf foods-13-01857.pdf 1 8558AE75D3EA33CF0F460A0A5120954E 435022a86e4dd833d4496407286119dd7bfd1ec7d751b53ebe9d92334ce5c37d 5b465a7d-3483-11ef-9572-0050569b8976 https://repozitorij.uni-lj.si/Dokument.php?lang=slv&id=186771 https://www.mdpi.com/2304-8158/13/12/1857 1 fe0a1b29-3482-11ef-9572-0050569b8976 https://repozitorij.uni-lj.si/Dokument.php?lang=slv&id=186770 Biotehniška fakulteta 0 0 0
