Abstract :

Olive oil consumption is associated with a number of health enhancing effects such as the reduction of chronic diseases and the fight against the risk of heart disease. To produce olive oil, a new industrial process called the â�?�?two-phase centrifuge systemâ�? allows for the recovery of one hand the olive oil and on other hand a wet pomace also called alperujo composed of vegetation waters and olive pieces. The aim of this investigation was to evaluate alperujo as a potential source of phenolic compounds using a rapid, reliable and efficient analytical method. Target antioxidant compounds were followed with UHPLCDAD/ ESI-MSn in order to identify and quantify biophenols. The results obtained showed the identification of 35 phenolic compounds in 12 minutes with a tentative of identification of new molecules. Furthermore, the aglycon and glycosidic forms of hydroxytyrosol were quantified in high concentration (3 mM). These results could lead to a fast promotion of phenolic compounds in olive oil by-products in terms of a new economic source of interesting phenolic antioxidants for the health, cosmetic and food sectors. .
