    © 2017 American Chemical Society. The addition of antioxidants is one of the strategies to inhibit lipid oxidation, a major cause of lipid deterioration in foods leading to rancidity development and nutritional losses. However, several studies have... been reported that conventional antioxidant assays, e.g., TPC, ABTS, FRAP, and ORAC could not predict antioxidant performance in several foods. This study aimed to investigate the performance of two recently developed assays, e.g., the conjugated

KGaA, Weinheim Many previous reports suggested that conventional antioxidant assays could not forecast antioxidant performance of plant extracts, especially when it came to a real food system such as oil-in-water... emulsion. In this study, antioxidant activities of aqueous and ethanolic plant extracts are investigated using multiple conventional assays (TPC, ABTS, FRAP, ORAC) and the oil-in-water (O/W) emulsion-based high throughput assays (the CAT and ApoCAT) in a

    and antioxidant capacities of honey from the longan flower. Total phenolic compounds, total flavonoids and antioxidant capacity (DPPH and FRAP assays) were determined. It was found that high pressure, ultra-sonic and thermal treatments had a significant effect... on antioxidative properties of honey sample. After pressurization, the quantities of total phenols, flavonoids and antioxidant capacity in honey signi ficantly increased with the increasing pressure levels and processing times, in particular samples pressurized

    Rice (Oryza sativa) is a staple crop that has supplied over half of the world's population. Our preliminary data suggested that parboiled germinated brown rice exhibited higher antioxidant activities and total phenolic contents than germinated brown... rice, brown rice and white rice, respectively. Nevertheless, the information on the stability of the antioxidant capacities and total phenolic contents in parboiled germinated brown rice is unavailable. Therefore, this research aimed to investigate

    The effect of boiling on ten edible mushroom varieties was analyzed for antioxidant activities by three different assays (ORAC, FRAP and DPPH) and polyphenol content. The results indicated that the boiling process significantly decreased both... antioxidant activities and polyphenol content in all mushroom varieties. Antioxidant activities and the polyphenol content of boiled mushrooms can be ranked from high to low as A. hygrometricus > A. Cylindracea > V. volvacea > L. edodes > P. eryngii
