Table 4.
Total phenol content (TPC) and antioxidant activity (by TEAC and ORAC assays) in grape pomace (GP), and after silage with (SIL+) or without (SIL) L. plantarum 5BG (per g dry weight).
GP | SIL | SIL+ | SEM | P-value | |
---|---|---|---|---|---|
TPC (mg GAE/g) | 17.99AB | 19.88A | 16.60B | 0.65 | 0.0063 |
TEAC (μmol TE/g) | 140.82 | 134.85 | 121.92 | 10.06 | 0.4248 |
ORAC (μmol TE/g) | 219.97A | 218.36A | 154.23B | 8.78 | 0.0062 |
Different letters in the same line show statistical differences: A, B = P <0.01.
GP, grape pomace; SIL, grape pomace after silage; SIL+, grape pomace after silage with L. plantarum 5BG; SEM, mean standard error.
