dc.description.abstractObtaining essential oils and hydrolates from underutilized biomass is an economic and sustainable way for production of these high added-value bioproducts. However, this process still generates large amounts of residues as the by-products obtained during distillation, which can be a concern for the environment, but also adequate substrates for other applications. Considering this fact, the waste distilled by-products remaining after steam distillation of underutilized biomass from Cupressus lusitanica and Cistus ladanifer, were evaluated as a natural source of other high value products with biological activities, namely, phenolic compounds. Thus, the remaining extracted solid residues (ESRs) were characterized and subject to further treatments by ultrasound-assisted extraction (UAE) with ethanol and 70 % acetone, in order to prepare phenolic-rich extracts thereof: ESRs (EtOH) and ESRs(70 % Ace). Together with the distiller condensation waters (DCWs), these extracts were characterized for their phenolic content (total phenols, tannins and flavonoids). Their antioxidant activity was also evaluated by different methodologies. the phenolic profile of DCWs, ESRs(EtOH) and ESRs(70 % Ace) from both waste species was obtained by capillary zone electrophoresis (CZE) and phenolic compounds were tentatively identified. Results obtained for C. lusitanica biomass are here disclosed for the first time. Generally, all samples revealed to be rich in phenolic compounds, being C. ladanifer biomass the one with higher phenolic content. DCWs presented values of 140 mgGAE/g for C. lusitanica and 210 mg GAE/g for C. ladanifer, from which ca. 60 % were tannins. Extracts obtained with 70 % acetone were the ones with the highest results, except for the antioxidant activity by xanthine oxidase and superoxide inhibition, which was higher in DCWs. Catechins were the major compounds found for both species, but gallocatechins and gallic acid were only identified in C. ladanifer. Hydroxycinnamic acid derivatives and salicylic acid were also identified in C. ladanifer, partly justifying the anti-inflammatory effect referred for this species.
