To achieve a highly selective and sensitive analysis of phenolic compounds in bee products (honey, bee bread, and propolis), a simultaneous quantification of 25 phenolic compounds was performed using high-performance liquid chromatography coupled with a diode array detector. In the study, various solvents were utilized to enhance the phenolic profile of bee products, including pH 2 and 7 ultra-pure water, diethyl ether, and ethyl acetate. These included non-liquid–liquid extraction, pH 2 with 10 mL of pure water and 20 mL of diethyl ether; pH 2 with 10 mL of pure water and 20 mL of ethyl acetate; pH 2 with 10 mL of pure water, 10 mL of diethyl ether, and 10 mL of ethyl acetate; and pH 7 with 10 mL of pure water, 10 mL of diethyl ether, and 10 mL of ethyl acetate. Additionally, the integration of phenolic compounds identified through the enrichment method was pursued using principal component analysis (PCA). The extraction yields and recovery rates of phenolic compounds can be significantly improved by combining and integrating different extraction techniques. Our results demonstrated that using different solvent combinations significantly improved both the yield and diversity of phenolic compounds extracted from the complex matrices of bee products.

Cornus mas L. (cornelian cherry) is a species widely used from traditional consumption to modern industrial applications due to its high nutritional content, richness in phenolic compounds, and functional food potential. This study aimed to comprehensively evaluate the physicochemical properties, organic acid composition, and free amino acid profiles of 15 cornelian cherry genotypes selected from the Çoruh Valley, one of Turkey's important biodiversity centers. Fruit samples were collected at full physiological maturity, and TSS, titratable acidity, pH, sugar composition, ascorbic acid, and tannin contents were analyzed using standard methods.Organic acids were determined by HPLC-UV, and free amino acids were determined by HPLC with OPA/FMOC derivatization. All measured traits differed significantly among genotypes (p < 0.05). Malic acid ranged from 38.12 to 251.34 mg/100 g, and total organic acids from 588.89 to 1038.15 mg/100 g. Free amino acid contents ranged from 71.34 to 93.14 mg/100 g, with the highest values in the G7 and G5 genotypes. This study demonstrates that the Çoruh Valley is an important hotspot of genetic diversity for cornelian cherry and contains genotype groups suitable for different uses. Overall, the findings provide a biochemical basis for selecting genotypes for breeding, nutritional applications, and industrial processing.

The purpose of the study was to analyze the po-tential health-pro mo ting components of some edible forest species of fruits. These are Service tree (Sor-bus domestica), Black rosehip (Rosa pimpinelli-folia), Red rosehip (Rosa carina), Bay fruit {Lawns nobilis), Cornelian cherry (Cornus mas), Autumn-olive (Elaeagrtus umbellate), and two different blue-berry fruits (Vaccinium arctostaplylos and Vaccin-ium myrtillus). In the present study, chemical and an-tioxidant activities, phenolic compounds as well as, inhibition effects on important enzymes (acetylcho-linesterase, xanthine oxidase and urease) of fruits were studied. Total polyphenol, flavonoid content, and the in-vitro antioxidant activity were evaluated by DPPH and FRAP. The sugar contents and phe-nolic compounds of the fruits were analyzed by HPLC-RJD and HPLC-UV. Fruits was determined the total polyphenol content (TPC) 1.10 to 19.87 mgGAE/g, total flavonoid content (TFC) 0.01 to 0.80 mgQE/g, DPPH values 0.22 to 6.03 mg/mL and FRAP values 4.24 to 168. 02 umol FeSO47H2O/g. All samples were determined various rate fructose and glucose. HPLC-UV revealed fruits contained different phenolic compounds. Inhibition values of the enzymes were expressed as inhibition concentra-tion (IC50: Mg/mL or ug/mL). It can be concluded that edible forest fruits are a potential source of anti-oxidants with therapeutic importance as well a natu-ral enzyme inhibitor.

Herbal medicines are efficient to reduce side effects in the fight against glioblastoma, which plays a critical role within brain cancer species. The recent studies designated for testing the effects of lichens that have shown numerous anticancer activities on glioblastoma so far. In the present study, different concentrations of water extract obtained from Usnea longissima Ach. were used in order to determine cytotoxic (via 3-(4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyltetrazolium bromide and lactate dehydrogenase tests), antioxidant (via total antioxidant capacity test), pro-oxidant (via total oxidant status test) and genotoxic (via 8-hydroxy-2'-deoxyguanosine test) effects of them on human U87MG-glioblastoma cancer cell lines. Primary mixed glial-neuronal non-cancerous cells from Sprague-Dawley rats were also utilized to measure the effects of treatments on non-cancerous cells. Based on median inhibitory concentration values, the data belonged to non-cancerous cells (2486.71 mg/L) showed distinct towering compared to U87MG (80.93 mg/L) cells. The viability of non-cancerous and U87MG cells exposed to extract is decreased in a dose dependent manner. It was also showed that low concentrations of extract notably increased total antioxidant capacity on non-cancerous cells. In addition, various phenolic compounds in extract were detected through high-perfonnance liquid chromatography. The recent results encourage that extract will be able to have therapeutic potential against glioblastoma.
