    TLDR Prosopis farcta has strong antioxidants, useful for food and medicine.
    The study on Prosopis farcta aimed to characterize its phenolic compounds and assess their antioxidant activities using LC-ESI-QTOF-MS/MS and HPLC-PDA techniques. Researchers identified 47 phenolic compounds, including 13 phenolic acids, 28 flavonoids, and others. Chlorogenic acid was the most abundant phenolic acid, while catechin and kaempferol were the main flavonoids. The antioxidant properties were evaluated through various assays, confirming P. farcta as a significant source of phenolic compounds with strong antioxidant potential, suitable for applications in food, beverage, feed, and pharmaceuticals.
