Table 2.
Total phenolic content (TPC) and antioxidant activity (ABTS and FRAP) of methanol extracts. TAE: tannic acid equivalent; TE: trolox equivalent; AAE: ascorbic acid equivalent. Data are presented ss mean ± standard error of mean (SEM). (n = 3). Different superscript letters in column indicate statistically significant differences (p < 0.05).
