A: ferric reducing power; B: hydrogen peroxide scavenging activity; C: ABTS scavenging activity; D: DPPH scavenging activity; E: nitric oxide scavenging activity. aIC50 is defined as the concentration (mg/mL) sufficient to obtain 50% of maximum scavenging capacity. bCoefficient of determination. Values obtained from regression lines with 95% confidence level. NA indicates no activity. ∗∗∗∗∗Greater than the lowest concentration of evaluated drugs. R2: coefficient of determination; values obtained from regression lines with 95% confidence level.
