Compared with raw garlic, black garlic has a higher content of PPs and S-allyl cysteine (SAC), a key OSC due to its bioactivities. The objective of the present work was to optimize by chemometric tools a green microwave-assisted extraction (MAE) of SAC and PPs present in black Chiloe’s giant garlic to detect and identify novel bioactive molecules with antioxidant and/or inhibitory activities over cyclooxygenase, α-glucosidase, and acetylcholinesterase enzymes. The MAE factors were optimized using a central composite design, establishing optimal PP and SAC yields at 67 ◦C, 0% ethanol, 12 min and 30 ◦C, 40% ethanol, 3 min, respectively. PP and SAC values were 9.19 ± 0.18 mg GAE/g DW and 2.55 ± 0.10 mg SAC/g DW. Applying effect-directed analysis using high-performance thin layer chromatography-bioassay and mass spectrometry, the bioactive molecules present in the MAE extract with antioxidant and inhibitory activities over cyclooxygenase, αglucosidase, and acetylcholinesterase enzymes were identified as N-fructosyl-glutamyl-S- (1-propenyl)cysteine, N-fructosyl-glutamylphenylalanine, and Harmane.}, organization = {FONDECYT (projects No. 1201658 and 1211803)}, organization = {International Cooperation (project No. FOVI210081)}, organization = {MCIN/AEI/10.13039/501100011033 - FEDER, UE (FONDEQUIP EQM210203, EQY220018, PID2021-125188OB-C31)}, publisher = {MDPI}, keywords = {MAE}, keywords = {(poly)phenols}, keywords = {planar chromatography}, keywords = {S-allyl-cysteine}, keywords = {cyclooxygenase}, keywords = {α-glucosidase}, keywords = {acetylcholinesterase}, title = {Identification of Novel Bioactive Molecules in Black Chiloe’s Giant Garlic (Allium ampeloprasum L.) by Green MicrowaveAssisted Extraction and Effect-Directed Analysis Using High-Performance Thin Layer Chromatography-Bioassay and Mass Spectrometry}, doi = {10.3390/antiox14080913}, author = {Fernández-Martínez, Joaquín and Arráez-Román, David and Peterssen, Darlene and Zapata, Gerald and Henríquez-Aedo, Karem and Aranda, Mario}, }
