    Abstract:
    The press-residue of black currants provides a good source of phenolic antioxidants. The purpose of this study was to optimize the extraction of phenolic compounds from the press-residue by use of extraction conditions compatible with food use. The effects of temperature, extraction duration, and use of ultrasound-assisted extraction on the juice yield, total phenolics (TP), and anthocyanin content of aqueous extracts were studied. Within the variables and response factors tested, the optimal conditions were a 15 min extraction at 90 °C. No significant effect from ultrasound-assisted extraction was found. The composition of anthocyanins and polyphenols was highly dependent on the extraction temperature. The percentage contribution of delphinidin- and cyanidin-3-rutinoside to TP had a negative linear correlation with temperature, while delphinidin- and cyanidin-3-glucoside had a positive linear correlation with temperature, with a maximum amount obtained at 80 °C and 55 °C, respectively. Furthermore, extracts obtained at higher temperatures showed a stronger inhibition of proliferation of Caco-2, HT-29, and HCT 116 cells than extracts obtained at lower temperatures. This may be due to the decomposition of complex polyphenols at higher temperatures, making them more accessible to the cells.
