Determination of antioxidant content in 14 vegetables has been done using Modified Phenanthroline (MPM), Phenanthroline (PM) and Ferric Reducing Antioxidant Power (FRAP) methods. The SDR values obtained for the MPM and PM methods were (2.65 ± 1.26) % and (3.51 ± 0.88) %, while the recovery values were (100.86 ± 4.45)% and (99.93 ± 3.50) %, respectively. The antioxidant content of vegetables obtained by MPM, PM and FRAP methods were (30.4 ± 1.46 - 515.9 ± 3.32), (25.9 ± 1.13 - 327.3 ± 2.57) and (21.4 ± 0.51 - 371.7 ± 1.10) μmol Fe / g DW, respectively. The antioxidant content obtained with the three methods showed no significant different. The correlation values between MPM - PM, MPM - FRAP, and PM - FRAP methods are 0.9712, 0.9896 and 0.9611, respectively. These values indicate a very strong correlation among the three methods.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
