Description |
The anti-oxidant activity of extracts from 38 vegetables, 28 fruits and 18 cereal crops were evaluated for their phenolic (TPH), flavonoids (TF) and antioxidant activity (AOX). Antioxidant activity mg/100g was evaluated using the in-vitro assay viz ferric reducing antioxidant activity power (FRAP), cupric antioxidant activity (CUPRAC) and 2,2-diphenyl picryl hydrazyl (DPPH) Large significant variation was observed (p Grape (Pusa Navrang) > Plum (Frontier) > Plum (Santa Rosa) > Grape (Black muscat) with phenolic values of 1493.87 > 669.25 > 453.66 > 458.69 > 333.56 mg GAE/100g respectively. Plums, grape, aonla and apple were amongst the fruits with maximum total flavonoids content ranging from (36.18-82.58 mg/100g). Vegetable like kachnar and drumstick had exceptionally high TPH of 760.45 and 150 mg GAE/100 mg followed by leafy vegetables (320.31-354.43 mg GAE/100g) and anthocyanin containing vegetables (90.672-447.23mg GAE/100g) respectively. Highest AOX (FRAP) was observed in black carrots followed by kachnar flowers dumar, beetroot and drumstick flowers. Coarse cereals, millets and beans displayed significantly (p
