UV-Induced Changes of Active Components and Antioxidant Activity in Postharvest Pigeon Pea [Cajanus cajan (L.) Millsp.] Leaves
Abstract
In this study, the effect of UV irradiation (UV-A, UV-B, and UV-C) on phytochemicals, total phenolics, and antioxidant activity of postharvest pigeon pea leaves was evaluated. The response of pigeon pea leaves to UV irradiation was phytochemical specific. UV-B and UV-C induced higher levels of phytochemicals, total phenolics, and antioxidant activity in pigeon pea leaves compared with UV-A. Furthermore, UV-B irradiation proved to possess a long-lasting effect on the levels of phenolics and antioxidant activity. After adapting for 48 h at 4 °C following 4 h UV-B irradiation, total phenolics and antioxidant activity were approximately 1.5-fold and 2.2-fold increased from 39.4 mg GAE/g DM and 15.0 μmol GAE/g DM to 59.1 mg GAE/g DM and 32.5 μmol GAE/g DM, respectively. These results indicate that UV irradiation of pigeon pea leaves can be beneficial in terms of increasing active components and antioxidant activity.

Phenolics, including flavonoids and stilbenes, are the major active components in Cajanus cajan leaves.
“Chemical and pharmacological investigations revealed that phenolics (flavonoids and stilbenes) were the major active components in C. cajan leaves [16,18,19].”
Cajanus cajan leaves have been exploited into a traditional Chinese medicine for the treatment of ischemic necrosis of femoral head in China.
“Recently, C. cajan leaves have attracted increasing attention and it has been exploited into a traditional Chinese medicine for the treatment of ischemic necrosis of femoral head in China [18].”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
