Components of sample |
DPPH IC50 (µg/ml) |
TEAC IC50 (µg/ml) |
Phenol content (µg/ml) |
---|---|---|---|
Squash skin | 12.42 ± 5.23 | 21.28 ± 0.55 | 79.97 ± 0.86 |
Squash seed | 106.78 ± 14.96 | 186.45 ± 0.64 | 45.45 ± 1.36 |
The results are presented as mean ± standard deviation (n = 3), p < .05 between phenol content of squash polyphenol extracts and antioxidant activities measured by DPPH&TEAC assay.
