Description Effect of cryogenic grinding on oleoresin content, total phenolics, flavonoid content and anti-oxidantproperties of seed extract of two genotypes of coriander and fenugreek have been analyzed. Oleoresin contentwas significantly high in cryogenically ground samples. Total phenolic and flavonoids content was also highin both the genotypes of coriander and fenugreek. Methanol crude seed extract of all genotypes were evaluatedfor its antioxidant activity in terms of total antioxidant content and DPPH free radical scavenging %. DPPHscavenging % was invariably more in cryo ground seeds in all the genotypes. Higher concentration ofantioxidant content and DPPH scavenging % suggested high antioxidant activity in cryo grinded samples. Itcould be concluded that cryogenic grinding technology is able to retain flavour and medicinal properties ofcoriander and fenugreek irrespective of the genotype.
