In the present work, several tannin extracts from myrtle and pomegranate were analyzed and characterized using HPLC/DAD/ESI-MS methods. Both aqueous and hydroalcoholic myrtle leaf extracts were found to be rich in galloyl-glucosides, galloyl-quinic acids, ellagitannins and flavonoids. In these extracts we observed a predominance of galloyl-glucosides and galloyl-quinic derivatives with respect to ellagic derivatives; 87.14% and 12.86%, respectively, average gallic and ellagic derivatives with respect to total tannins content. In pomegranate extracts, substantial differences were found in polyphenol contents between peel and seed extracts with regard to the relative abundance of gallic and ellagic acid derivatives: 28.81% and 71.19%, respectively, as average total gallic and ellagic derivatives in peel extracts; 61.30% and 38.70%, in seed extracts. The antiradical properties were evaluated and compared to those of two commercial extracts of chestnut bark and grape seeds. The collected data could suggest the use of myrtle and pomegranate extracts as nutraceuticals and functional foods for their important antioxidant properties. (C) 2011 Elsevier Ltd.
