ABTS·+ radical scavenging concentration (SC), Fe3+ reducing concentration (RC), Fe2+ chelating concentration (CC), NO Scavenging capacity (SC) of marc and stem extracts. Values (mean ± SDE, n = 3) in the same column followed by the same letter are not significantly different (Tuckey's test, p ≤ 0.05).
