IC50 values of Tetrapleura tetraptera methanol fruit extract in in vitro antioxidant tests.

Antioxidant tests TT IC50 (μg/mL) Reference standard
Compound IC50 (μg/mL)
DPPH 20.96 ± 0.65a Ascorbic acid 15.36 ± 0.29b
ABTS+ 47.03 ± 0.97a Trolox 39.88 ± 0.52b
Hydroxyl radical 20.63 ± 0.68a Mannitol 11.06 ± 0.87b
CUPRAC 32.08 ± 1.22a Trolox 9.76 ± 0.89b
LPO 47.36 ± 0.67a Quercetin 45.61 ± 0.56b
Protein anti-denaturation 26.76 ± 0.21a Ascorbic acid 12.15 ± 0.21b

Values are expressed as mean ± SD (n = 3). IC50 was calculated using the inverse logarithmic method. Values with the same letter across a row are not significantly different (p < 0.05). TT: Tetrapleura tetraptera methanol fruit extract; DPPH: 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl; ABTS: 2,2′-azino-bis(3-ethylbenzthiazoline-6-sulfonic acid); CUPRAC: Cupric ion reducing antioxidant capacity; LPO: Lipid peroxidation.
