Functional compound contents, antioxidant activity, and enzyme inhibitory activity from 10 sesame varieties. Values are the mean ± SD of 3 replicates. Different capital letters and small letters in the same items indicate a significant difference (p < 0.05) among different varieties and extraction concentration, respectively. (a) Functional compound contents: total polyphenol content, total flavonoid content, total lignan content, oil−soluble lignan, soluble lignan (b); (e) individual sesame lignan composition: sesamin, sesamolin, sesaminol, sesaminol-diglucoside, and sesaminol−triglucoside. (c) Antioxidant activities: 2,2′−azino−bis3−ethylbenzothiazoline−6−sulphonic acid (ABTS) radical scavenging activity, 2,2-diphenyl−1−picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) radical scavenging activity. (d) High performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) chromatogram of sesame lignan: (1) sesamin, (2) sesamolin, (3) sesaminol-−triglucoside, (4) sesaminol−diglucoside, (5) sesaminol. (f) Enzyme inhibitory activities: acetylcholinesterase (AChE), butylcholinesterase (BChE), angiotensin converting enzyme (ACE), and α-glucosidase (AG) inhibitory activity. (g) Acetylcholinesterase (AChE) inhibitory activity depending on 10 varieties and extracts concentration (0.1, 0.2, 0.4 mg/g): Goenbaek (GB), Ansan (AS), Koppom (KP), Daheuk (DH), and Milyang 68, 69, 70, 73, 74.
