Phenolic profiles, antioxidant activities and cytoprotective effects of different phenolic fractions from oil palm (Elaeis guineensis Jacq.) fruits treated by ultra-high pressure

Abstract The present work investigated the phenolic profiles, antioxidant activities, and cytoprotective effects of the free, esterified, and insoluble-bound phenolic fractions from oil palm fruits treated under ultra-high pressure (UHP). Results showed that UHP treatment significantly increased the total phenolic and flavonoid contents of all three phenolic fractions ( p p
