IC50 value of DPPH radical scavenging activity, FRAP, total phenolic content and reducing power of BMbest and YMbest
| Name of extracts | IC50 value of DPPH radical scavenging activity (mg/ml)a | FRAP (mmol FeSO4 equivalent/g of dry mustard seeds)a | Total phenolic content (mg of GAE/g of dry mustard seeds)a | Reducing power (mg of BHT/g of dry mustard seeds)a |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| BMbest | 2.29 ± 0.10a | 77.66 ± 3.54a | 1.73 ± 0.11a | 47.16 ± 2.21a |
| YMbest | 0.91 ± 0.01b | 75.14 ± 2.62b | 2.75 ± 0.13b | 34.84 ± 1.70b |
