Extract/isolated compounds Test system Results References
Crude oil from seeds DPPH
ABTS
TPC
DPPH: EC50 = 0.1 mg/mL
ABTS: EC50 = 0.1 mg/mL
Significant antioxidant effect
Standards: methyl ether, fatty acids
[56]
Seeds extract DPPH, ABTS, total phenolic content EC50 = 10 − 100 μg/mL
Significant antioxidant effect
Standards: methyl ether, fatty acids
Methanolic and aqueous peel extracts DPPH EC50 = 10 − 100 μg/mL
Concentration-dependent radical scavenging activity
The methanolic extract exhibited a better antioxidant effect
Standard: DPPH
[29]
Aqueous seeds extract TPC, TFC
DPPH, ABTS, H2O2, linoleic acid oxidation nitrite scavenging assay
TPC: EC50 = 81.3 ± 1.4 μg gallic acid/g
TFC: EC50 = 486.8 ± 4.1 μg catechin/g dry mass
DPPH: EC50 = 0.6 − 3 mg/mL
Concentration-dependent antioxidant activity
Standards: catechin 0.05-0.5 mg/mL, BHT, ascorbic acid 10 mg/mL
[61]
Seed oil DPPH
ABTS radical scavenging assay
DPPH: EC50 = 0.1 mg/mL

Standard: FAME
[44]
Hispidalin DPPH
Lipid peroxidation assay
DPPH: EC50 = 2 − 40 μg/mL
EC50 = 40 μg/mL
Significant DPPH radical scavenging and inhibition of lipid peroxidation capacity
Standard: methyl ether
[59]
Methanol, ethanol, aqueous peel extracts DPPH
Reducing power assay
Significant antioxidant effect
Standard: acarbose 20, 40, 60, 80, 100 μg.mL−1
[17]
Seed extract DPPH
ABTS
Significant antioxidant effect
Standard: FAME
[28]
Polysaccharides of fruit extract DPPH EC50 = 0.98 mg/mL
Significant antioxidant effect
Standard: glucose
