Table 1.
Total phenolic content (TPC) and antiradical activity (DPPH) of dry red beans using different mixtures of MeOH:H2O. Values are reported as mean ± SD of independent experiments performed in triplicate.
| MeOH:H2O (v/v) | TPC (mg GAE/Kg ± SD) | DPPH (mmol TE/Kg ± SD) |
|---|---|---|
| 80:20 | 1892 ± 237 | 42.3 ± 5.8 |
| 70:30 | 2325 ± 98 | 49.2 ± 4.6 |
| 50:50 | 1348 ± 24 | 30.4 ± 6.1 |
| 30:70 | 1272 ± 8 | 29.2 ± 8.7 |
| 20:80 | 1287 ± 28 | 27.5 ± 7.3 |
TPC: total phenolic content; GAE: gallic acid equivalents; DPPH: antiradical activity; TE: Trolox equivalents.
