Nowadays, much research attention is focused on underutilized berry crops due to the high antioxidant activity of fruits. Black crowberry ( L.) represents an important source of flavonols (quercetin, rutin, myricetin, naringenin, naringin, morin, and kaempferol) and anthocyanins. The fruit components could be utilised as natural colourants or as a part of functional foods and, because of the high antioxidant activity, the berries of black crowberry can be used in the treatment of diseases accompanied with inflammation, or as an effective antibacterial and antifungal remedy. Moreover, the reduction of lipid accumulation and total cholesterol as well as an improvement of postprandial hyperglycaemia have been proven. This review summarizes for the first time the main antioxidants (flavonoids) of black crowberry fruits, with a focus on their health promoting activity.
如今,由于果实具有高抗氧化活性,未充分利用的浆果作物受到了很多研究关注。黑果越桔(L.)是黄酮醇(槲皮素、芦丁、杨梅素、柚皮素、柚皮苷、桑色素和山奈酚)和花青素的重要来源。果实成分可用作天然色素或功能性食品的一部分,并且由于具有高抗氧化活性,黑果越桔的浆果可用于治疗伴有炎症的疾病,或作为一种有效的抗菌和抗真菌药物。此外,已证实其具有减少脂质积累和总胆固醇以及改善餐后高血糖的作用。本综述首次总结了黑果越桔果实的主要抗氧化剂(类黄酮),重点关注它们的健康促进活性。
