Abstract

Summary: High‐temperature fermented apple is a new fermented product with characteristic black appearance, which is prepared through natural fermentation of whole fresh apple at controlled high temperature (60–90 °C) and humidity (relative humidity of 50–90%). In this work, melanoidins from high‐temperature fermented apple were obtained by ultrafiltration and subsequent diafiltration. The structural characterisation of melanoidins was investigated in the present study. Results showed that the molecular weight of the obtained melanoidins was about 179 kDa and the melanoidins were comprised primarily of furans by pyrolysis–gas chromatography–mass spectrometry. Antioxidant activities of the high‐temperature fermented apple and its melanoidins were evaluated by ABTS, DPPH, hydroxyl radicals, ferric reducing antioxidant power and Fe 2+ ‐chelating assays. Both high‐temperature fermented apple and its melanoidins showed extremely high antioxidant activities in scavenging hydroxyl radicals. High correlation between the antioxidant activity assayed methods and the physicochemical characteristics of melanoidins was obtained. The contribution of melanoidins to the total antioxidant capacity of high‐temperature fermented apple was determined.

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.
