Table 3.

DPPH scavenging activities (IC50 values) of the CE, EAF, AQF, and pure compounds as well as the control compound (gallic acid).

Test sample IC50 ± SD (μg/mL)
CE 96.09 ± 21.05a
EAF 105.98 ± 8.32a
AQF 224.21 ± 17.08a
Gallic acid 32.53 ± 3.72b
Rosmarinic acid 35.80 ± 3.79b
Procyanidin dimer (B1) 27.59 ± 13.50b

AQF = aqueous fraction; CE = crude extract; DPPH = 1,1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl-radical; EAF = ethyl acetate fraction; IC50 = half maximal inhibitory concentration; SD = standard deviation.

a

IC50 values of CE and fractions in μg equivalents of dry sample/mL.

b

IC50 values in μg/mL of pure compounds.
