Evaluation of the antioxidant capacity of aqueous extracts of fresh Chrysanthemum balsamita L. leaves growing in Bulgaria
نویسندگان
چکیده
The antioxidant activity of aqueous extracts of fresh leaves of costmary (Chrysanthemum balsamita L.) was investigated. The effect of the extraction time on total phenolic compounds (TPhC) and antioxidant activity (ABTS -, CUPRACand FRAP assays) was studied. Results demonstrated highest levels of TPhC (0.60 GAE/g fresh plant weight), CUPRAC (5.93 μMTE/g FW), ABTS (10.68 μMTE/g FW), and FRAP (7.35 μMTE/g FW) at 15 min of thermal treatment. A high correlation between antioxidant capacities of fresh leaves of Chrysanthemum balsamita and their total phenolic contents (R=0.78-0.99) was
