Abstract
|
|
|
Sun-dried calyxes of Hibiscus sabdariffa were finely grinded and fractionated by controlled differential sieving processing (CDSp) into four granulometric classes. The obtained powder fractions were examined for their micronutrient contents and in vivo antioxidant properties in high-fat diet induced oxidation model rats. Unsieved powder and lyophilized ethanolic extract were used for comparison. Micronutrient contents and antioxidant properties were significantly influenced (p?0.05) by particle sizes. The mineral, vitamin, carotenoid and anthocyanin contents were shown to be higher in smaller powder particles. Comparatively, the ethanolic extract powder had the higher carotenoid, vitamin and anthocyanin contents while the superfine powders?180 ¥ìm and 180?212 ¥ìm had the higher mineral contents and antioxidant properties which was characterized by high superoxide dismutase, catalase activities and low malondialdehyde production. Plant grinding followed by CDSp may be an option to improve micronutrient content and antioxidant activity of plant powders.
