Study of FRAP and TBA in the ethanol and methanol extracts of Prunus persica var. compressa (Loud), Persica vulgaris Miller and Prunus persica var. nucipersica in west Azarbijan
Journal Title: Journal of Research in Biology - Year 2018, Vol 8, Issue 5
Abstract
The objectives of this test is to detect the antioxidant activity (FARP and TBA) of ethanolic and methanolic extracts of Persica vulgaris Miller, Prunus persica var. compressa (Loud), Prunus persica var. nucipersica leaves and fruits. A direct correlation between phenol content with FRAP and TBA in the ethanolic and methanolic extracts of fruits and leaves of these plants were noticed. The results showed that, the largest amount of ferric reducing antioxidant power was in the ethanolic extract of Prunus persica var. compressa (Loud) fruit and large amounts of TBA were found in the ethanolic extracts of Persica vulgaris Miller leaves. We can conclude that these plants have the highest ability to collect free radicals for having its high antioxidant power
