|
The purpose of this study was to measure the antioxidant activity and bioactivity of black chokeberry (Aronia melanocarpa). The black chokeberry was known to contain many physiologically active substance, such as ascorbic acid, anthocyanin, quercetin. We extracted black chokeberry powder from four solvents such as chloroform:methanol(CM, 2:1, v/v), distilled water (DW), 70% ethanol, 70% methanol. After that, we determined anthocyanin, total phenol, flavonoid content, DPPH radical scavenging activity, ABTS radical scavenging activity, ferric reducing antioxidant power, reducing power and Nitrite scavenging activity of black chokeberry extracts and as results of comparing each extract. respectively. From the above results shows that antioxidant activity and bioactivity of black chokeberry extracts was the highest in 70% methanol (p<0.05). The results suggest that black chokeberry can be used as nutraceutical foods and natural antioxidant.
