DPPH RADICAL SCAVENGING ACTIVITY EFFECT OF EDIBLE SEAWEEDS FOR NOODLES
Journal Title: European Journal of Pharmaceutical and Medical Research - Year 2017, Vol 4, Issue 5
Abstract
The 1- diphenyl 2-picrylhyorazyl (DPPH) scavenging activity from ethanol extracts of four edible alga, Porphyra tenera,Undaria pinnatifida, Sargassum fusiformeand Enteromorpha linzawere evaluated. DPPH scavenging activity was analysed according to the method of Brand-Williams et al. S. fusiformewas showed the highest inhibition activity of DPPH among four alga. DPPH scavenging activities of S. fusiformewas evaluated 69.3% at 8.0 mg/ml. DPPH scavenging activity of P. tenerawas evaluated 27.0% at 8.0 mg/ml. U. pinnatifidaand E. linzawere showed similar inhibition of DPPH scavenging activity. According to results of DPPH assay per seaweed, inhibitory activitieswere in the order of S. fusiforme> P. tenera> E. linza> U. pinnatifida. The DPPH scavenging activities of dough which was instant noodles mixed with P. teneraand 3.5% salt were 18.6% at 8.0 mg/ml. After boiling for 5.0 minutes,DPPH scavenging activity of mixed instant noodles with extracts of S. fusiformewas evaluated 54.0% at 8.0 mg/ml.
