[EN] The identification and quantification of phenolic compounds in bananas from Gran Canaria were carried out to examine changes in their profile during maturation. The phenolic composition of extracts derived from bananas was determined by using HPLC. The total phenolic contents were measured with Folin–Cicolteau`s phenol reagent. To quantify the total antioxidant capacity of banana extracts, we chose two methods commonly used: the percentage of inhibition of radical 1,1–diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) and the ferric reducing antioxidant power (FRAP assay). The antioxidant potential on banana extracts was found to increase during maturation in correlation whit the total phenol content.

[EN] The study investigates the phenolic profile of exudates and extracts of several microalgae harvested in natural seawater in the presence and absence of Cu and Fe additions, at metal levels of environmental relevance. The experimental findings show changes in the concentrations and types of polyphenols as a function of the metal added and its spiked concentrations. The results shown might be useful to help explaining the dynamics of this important class of compounds in seawater and also encourage further studies aimed at using algae as a source of chemical principles to be used in the health, food and pharmaceutical industry.
