Antioxidant capacity and total phenolic content of Malaysian underutilized fruits
The purpose of this study was to evaluate the antioxidant capacity (AC) and total phenolic content (TPC) of selected Malaysian underutilized fruits. The 58 underutilized fruits of 32 different species from 21 genera were analyzed for AC and TPC. AC was measured using β-carotene bleaching, ferric red...
