Cereal products are the most important dietary source for energy intake and several bioactive compounds with high concentrations in the bran and the germ. Different cereal products provide a rich source of bioactive phytochemicals, namely, phenolic acids, carotenoids, tocopherols, alkylresorcinols, benzoxazines, phytosterols, and lignans. The bioactive substance alkylresorcinols (ARs) present in the whole cereal can inhibit enzyme activity, prevent bacterial or fungal infection, reduce cholesterol absorption, prevent cancer, and resist oxidation. In this paper, we discussed the biological activity of ARs in whole cereal products. Understanding the effects of processing on cereal phytochemicals will help us to develop improved processes for processing cereal foods with higher retention rates of bioactive compounds.

不同谷物产品中烷基间苯二酚的生物利用度和生物活性

谷类产品是能量摄入最重要的膳食来源，是麸皮和胚芽中高浓度的几种生物活性化合物。不同的谷物产品提供丰富的生物活性植物化学物质来源，即酚酸、类胡萝卜素、生育酚、烷基间苯二酚、苯并恶嗪、植物甾醇和木脂素。全谷物中存在的生物活性物质烷基间苯二酚（ARs）可以抑制酶活性，防止细菌或真菌感染，减少胆固醇吸收，预防癌症，抗氧化。在本文中，我们讨论了全谷物产品中 AR 的生物活性。了解加工对谷物植物化学物质的影响将有助于我们开发改进的加工工艺，以更高的生物活性化合物保留率加工谷物食品。
