چکیده
Palha, espiga e estigma de milho foram extraídos com água, etanol aquoso, metanol aquoso e acetato de etila, respectivamente. O conteúdo fenólico total (TPC), conteúdo flavonóide total (TFC), conteúdo cetoesteróide total (TKC) e atividades antioxidantes [atividade de sequestro de radicais, poder redutor, e poder antioxidante-redutor férrico (FRAP) de 2,2’-difenil-1-picrilhidrazil (DPPH), 2,4,6-tri(2-piridil)-1,3,5-triazina (TPTZ) e 2,2’-azinobis(3-etilbenzotiazolina-6-ácido sulfônico) (ABTS)] dos extratos foram identificados. Os principais componentes antioxidantes foram posteriormente determinados e quantificados por cromatografia líquida de alta eficiência (HPLC). Os resultados revelaram que etanol e metanol aquosos foram mais eficientes na extração de constituintes antioxidantes da espiga, palha e estigma do milho. Oito componentes antioxidantes principais foram detectados como subprodutos e os conteúdos de quatro componentes antioxidantes principais foram determinados. O trabalho presente revelou que a espiga e palha de milho mostram valores de TPC, TFC e TKC altos e similares, e atividade antioxidante com o estigma de milho que podem ser usados como potenciais candidatos na prevenção de doenças relacionadas a vários subprodutos oxidantes do metabolismo humano.
