AB  - Chestnut trees are one of the most important crops in the north-eastern
   part of Portugal, representing millions of euros of yearly income. There
   are many ancestral claims of the health benefits of the consumption of
   chestnut flowers in infusions that remain unproven. In this manuscript,
   the antitumor and antimicrobial potential of chestnut flowers from two
   cultivars, Judia and Longal, extracted through infusions and decoctions
   are reported. In terms of antitumor activity, the most sensitive cell
   lines were HepG2 and HCT15 with the cultivar Judia showing higher
   activity for HCT15 and Longal for HepG2, regardless of the extraction
   methods. Regarding the antibacterial activity of the extracts,
   decoctions proved to be more effective with lower minimum inhibition
   concentrations, while infusions were better in terms of antifungal
   activity. The good overall antimicrobial activity could justify the
   inclusion of the flowers in food chain processing to act as a natural
   antimicrobial. Furthermore, the results corroborate some of the
   ancestral claims of the consumption of these flowers. (C) 2014 Elsevier
