Apolonia,´ 5301-857 Bragança, Portugal ARTICLE INFO ABSTRACT Keywords: Cynara scolymus L., known as globe artichoke, is a medicinal plant widely used in plant food supplements (PFS) Globe artichoke and herbal infusions due to its beneficial health properties. The high demand for artichoke-containing products Plant food supplements can lead to adulteration practices. In this work, a real-time polymerase chain reaction (PCR) system coupled to Authenticity high-resolution melting (HRM) analysis was proposed to differentiate C. scolymus from other Cynara species. Real-time PCR Hence, a Cynara-specific real-time PCR assay was successfully developed with high analytical performance, High-resolution melting analysis achieving a sensitivity of 0.4 pg of globe artichoke DNA. HRM analysis enabled the discrimination of C. scolymus, with a high level of confidence (>98%), corroborating sequencing data. Application results to artichoke- containing PFS and mixed herbal infusions allowed confirming the presence of C. scolymus in 38% of the sam­ ples, suggesting the substitution/mislabelling of globe artichoke in 2 samples and the need for further efforts to increase DNA amplifiability of PFS.

Organic acids were analyzed by ultra fast liquid chromatography (UFLC) coupled to a photodiode array (PDA) detector. Total phenolics and flavonoids were measured by the Folin-Ciocalteu and aluminium chloride colorimetric methods, respectively. The antioxidant activity was evaluated based on the DPPH‚ scavenging activity, reducing power, β-carotene bleaching inhibition and thiobarbituric acid reactive substances (TBARS) formation inhibition. Analyses were performed in the non-irradiated and irradiated plant material, as well as in decoctions obtained from the same samples.

ABSTRACT Borututu is a well-known medicinal plant in Angola for the treatment of liver diseases and for the prophylaxis of malaria. Our research group reported, in a recent study, that its infusion, pills and syrups display significant antioxidant and anti-hepatocellular carcinoma activities. However, during the processing and storage, it can be easily exposed to contamination that can lead to a microbial deterioration or insect infestation compromising its quality, shelf life, and efficiency. Herein, we investigated the effect of gamma irradiation, one of the most promising decontamination methods for many foodstuffs and plant materials, at different doses (1 and 10 kGy) on borututu regarding to its nutritional value, lipophilic (fatty acids and tocopherols) and hydrophilic (free sugars and organic acids) compounds, antioxidant and anti-hepatocellular carcinoma activities. In general, the irradiation treatment did not appreciably affect the nutritional value of the studied plant, but the highest energetic contribution (383.83 kcal/100 g), total sugars (8.63 g/100 g), organic acids (3.31 g/100 g dw), total tocopherols (336.72 mg/100 g dw), and PUFA (32.75%) contents were found in the sample irradiated at 10 kGy.

Different formulations (infusions, pills and syrups), as also different proportions of A, B and M (1:1:1, 2:1:1, 1:2:1, 1:1:2) within each formulation were assayed to optimize the desired benefits. The antioxidant activity, anti- hepatocellular carcinoma activity, hepatotoxicity and bioactive compounds contents were evaluated. Syrups tended to be the formulation with highest antioxidant activity and total phenolics and flavonoids content; otherwise, pills were the worst formulation. In what concerns A:B:M ratios, the results did not reveal so pronounced differences. None of the assayed mixtures resulted to be toxic (up to the maximum assayed dose) for liver primary cells (PLP2), but some samples, especially infusions, showed toxicity for the hepatocellular carcinoma cell line (HepG2). With no exception, the mixtures for all formulations gave synergistic effects in antioxidant activity, when compared to the activity of single plants.
