Values in the same column with different letters presented significant differences (p < .01).

^aTotal phenols of each sample were expressed as milligrams of gallic acid equivalent (GAE) per gram of dry weight; Data were expressed as means ± SD of three experiments.

^bDPPH· scavenging activities of each sample were expressed as milligrams of ascorbic acid equivalent per gram of dry weight; Data were expressed as means ± SD of three experiments.

^cORAC values of each sample were expressed as μmol of Trolox equivalent per gram of dry weight; Data were expressed as means ± SD of three experiments.

^dSum of the contents of polyphenols for each component.

^eSum of the DPPH· scavenging activities for each component.

^fSum of the ORAC values for each component.
