abstract = {Agri-food residues represent a rich source of nutrients and bioactive secondary metabolites,
including phenolic compounds. The effective utilization of these by-products in food supplements
and the nutraceuticals industry could provide a way of valorization in the transition to becoming
more sustainable. In this context, the present study describes the phenolic profiling of sesame
(Sesamum indicum L.) cake using reversed-phase high-performance liquid chromatography coupled
to diode array detection and quadrupole-time-of-flight-mass spectrometry. Compounds were
characterized based on their retention time, UV spectra, accurate mass spectrometry (MS) and
MS/MS data along with comparison with standards, whenever possible, and the relevant literature.
The characterized compounds (112 metabolites) belong to several classes, namely, phenolic acids
(hydroxybenzoic acids and hydroxycinnamic acids), flavonoids, and lignans. Moreover, organic
acids and some nitrogenous compounds were characterized. The total phenol content and the
antioxidant activity of the cake extract were determined. This study provides useful information for
the valorization of by-products from the sesame oil industry.},
