Freshness
Revitalization
Corphes, in collaboration with FoodOxys, have embraced a holistic scientific approach to evaluate the antioxidant activity of natural compounds present in aromatic plants and fruits as a key measure of bioactivity.
Specifically, we assessed:
The bioactive content (Folin-Ciocalteu)
The free radical scavenging capacity (DPPH•, ΑΒTS•+, O2•-)
The reducing capacity (Reducing Power, CUPRAC)
The DNA protective activity (Plasmid DNA relaxation)
Laboratory analyses
THE RESULTS
The O2•- free radical
It is naturally produced within the human body and, at high levels, can cause serious damage to critical biomolecules.
Total polyphenol content (TPC)
It is expressed in mg gallic acid equivalents (GAE) per ml or g of sample. The higher the value, the greater the concentration of bioactive compounds.
IC50 value
It is expressed in μl/ml of reaction or mg/ml of reaction. It represents the sample concentration required to scavenge 50% of the corresponding free radical. The lower the value, the higher the antioxidant activity.
