Relative ratio of antioxidant activity to the yield of hot water extract
Extraction condition1) | ABTS assay | Alkyl assay | DPPH assay | SOD assay | MTT assay |
AE | 1.90 | 2.32 | 1.72 | 1.65 | 1.84 |
OE | 1.36 | 1.86 | 1.39 | 1.36 | 1.06 |
HWSE | 1.29 | 1.81 | 1.58 | 1.25 | 1.06 |
HWASE | 1.002) | 1.00 | 1.00 | 1.00 | 1.00 |
BE | 1.58 | 2.15 | 1.37 | 1.37 | 1.07 |
AE, autoclave extraction; OE, oven extraction; HWSE, hot water & sonication extraction; HWASE, hot water & 0.5% (v/v) acetic acid & sonication; BE, boiling extraction.
Relative ratio of antioxidant activity to yield were calculated by normalizing the ratio by that of HWASE.
