          Abstract

          ABSTRACT Mexican oregano (Lippia graveolens Kunth) is a spice of great commercial value as a condiment, mainly due to the profile provided by its essential oil. However, little use has been made of its high concentration of water-soluble phenolic compounds, such as pinocembrin, a flavanone with antioxidant properties of great nutritional and health importance. The process of essential oil extraction from its leaves produces a large amount of waste rich in flavonoids, which is rarely used and even becomes a source of contamination due to its inadequate disposal. In order to evaluate this agro-industrial waste, the bagasse was characterized and found to have a high content of total phenolic and pinocembrin (0.71 mg/mL), as well as antioxidant activity, with values similar to those found in plant matter without any processing. Extracts rich in pinocembrin were prepared by separation on a chromatographic column, being able to generate enriched products (1.38 mg/mL). The oxidative stabilization capacity of the extract and its enriched fraction from the residual bagasse of oregano in sunflower oil was evaluated, finding outstanding protective capacities against lipid peroxidation compared to those provided by butylated hydroxytoluene, a synthetic antioxidant commonly used for this purpose.

          RESUMEN El orégano mexicano (Lippia graveolens Kunth) es una especia de gran valor comercial como condimento principalmente por el perfil que proporciona su aceite esencial. Sin embargo, poco aprovechamiento se ha dado a su alta concentración de compuestos fenólicos hidrosolubles presentes, como la pinocembrina, flavanona con propiedades antioxidantes de gran importancia alimenticia y para la salud. En el proceso de extracción del aceite esencial de sus hojas, se produce una gran cantidad de residuos ricos en flavonoides, que pocas veces son aprovechados, e incluso se convierten en fuente de contaminación por la inadecuada disposición de los mismos. Con el fin de valorizar este desecho agroindustrial, el bagazo se caracterizó encontrando un contenido de fenoles totales de 2.99 mg GA/mL Ex y de pinocembrina de 0.71 mg/mL Ex así como una actividad antioxidante de 5.48 mg EqTx/mL Ex, los cuales son valores similares a los encontrados en la materia vegetal sin procesamiento alguno. Se elaboraron extractos ricos en pinocembrina mediante separación por columna cromatográfica pudiendo generarse productos enriquecidos (1.38 mg/mL). Se evaluó la capacidad de estabilización oxidativa del extracto y su fracción enriquecida provenientes del bagazo residual de orégano en aceite de girasol, encontrando capacidades de protección contra peroxidación lipídica sobresalientes, comparadas con las proporcionadas por el butil hidroxitolueno, antioxidante sintético comúnmente utilizado con este fin.

            Antibacterial Properties of Propolis

            Researchers are continuing to discover all the properties of propolis due to its complex composition and associated broad spectrum of activities. This review aims to characterize the latest scientific reports in the field of antibacterial activity of this substance. The results of studies on the influence of propolis on more than 600 bacterial strains were analyzed. The greater activity of propolis against Gram-positive bacteria than Gram-negative was confirmed. Moreover, the antimicrobial activity of propolis from different regions of the world was compared. As a result, high activity of propolis from the Middle East was found in relation to both, Gram-positive (Staphylococcus aureus) and Gram-negative (Escherichia coli) strains. Simultaneously, the lowest activity was demonstrated for propolis samples from Germany, Ireland and Korea.
