This study investigated the biological activities of 70% methanol extracts from black chokeberry and blueberry by measuring DPPH, superoxide anion and ABTS radical scavenging activities, metal chelating effect, reducing power, and nitrite scavenging activity. Extraction yields of black chokeberry and blueberry were 62.90% and 67.09%, respectively. Total polyphenol and total flavonoid contents were 117.20 mg/g and 32.50 mg/g for black chokeberry and 42.26 mg/g and 26.39 mg/g for blueberry, respectively. Black chokeberry had higher antioxidant activity than blueberry. DPPH and ABTS radical scavenging activities, nitrite scavenging activity, and metal chelating effect of black chokeberry were 98.29%, 96.68%, 97.64%, and 91.33%, respectively, at a concentration of 5 mg/mL, which were equal to those of ascorbic acid (positive control). These results suggest that black chokeberry has potent biological activities, and in the future, the availability of black chokeberry will increase in the field of value added food products.
