Influence of in vitro gastro-duodenal digestion on the antioxidant activity of single and mixed three “Jarilla” species infusions

Zuccagnia punctata Cav. (Zp), Larrea cuneifolia Cav. (Lc) and Larrea divaricata Cav. (Ld), are shrubs commonly called “Jarillas” and used in Argentinian local communities as medicinal plants. In this work, phytochemical profile and antioxidant activity of infusions prepared from aerial parts and mixtures in different proportions, before and after a simulated gastro-duodenal digestion was determined. The main phytochemical groups, protein, sugar...
