Amazonian Eryngium foetidum leaves exhibited very high contents of bioactive compounds and high singlet oxygen quenching capacity

Phenolic compounds and carotenoids profile of Amazonian Eryngium foetidum leaves and the quenching ability of their hydrophilic extract against singlet oxygen (1O2) were determined. Chlorogenic acid (4327 μg/g, dry basis, d.b.) was the major phenolic compound in the leaves at very high concentration...
