Anti-polyphenol oxidase properties of total flavonoids from young loquat fruits: inhibitory activity and mechanism
This study investigated anti-polyphenol oxidase activity and mechanism of purified total flavonoids (PTF) from young loquat fruits. PTF remarkably inhibited the activity of polyphenol oxidase (PPO) with an IC(50) value of 21.03 ± 2.37 μg/mL. Based on enzyme kinetics, PTF was found to be a potent, mi...

Sumario: | This study investigated anti-polyphenol oxidase activity and mechanism of purified total flavonoids (PTF) from young loquat fruits. PTF remarkably inhibited the activity of polyphenol oxidase (PPO) with an IC(50) value of 21.03 ± 2.37 μg/mL. Based on enzyme kinetics, PTF was found to be a potent, mixed-type, and reversible inhibitor of PPO. The fluorescence intensity of PPO was quenched by PTF through forming a PTF-PPO complex in a static procedure. Therefore, this study authenticated PTF as an efficient PPO inhibitor, which would contribute to their utilization in food industry. |
