The content of total phenolics, DPPH-free radical scavenging effect, total antioxidant and antimicrobial activities of Thua Nao, a Thai traditional fermented soybean, collected from six local markets in Chiang Mai, Thailand were investigated.

In general, the samples contained 57.22 - 64.78% moisture, 4.70 - 5.44% ash, 12.92 - 28.06% crude fibre, 38.94 - 42.06% crude protein and 20.37 - 25.22% fat. For microbiological quality, total viable counts were in the range of 9.57 - 10.59 log CFU/g. Bacterial spore count was over 91% in all samples indicating that spore-forming bacteria are predominant for Thua Nao fermentation. Total phenolic contents of Thua Nao extracts were also varied depending on the source; these were between 30.46 - 44.58 mg GAE/g extract. For antioxidant activity, the IC 50 values as determined by the DPPH method ranged from 2.43 to 3.19 mg/mL of sample extract whereas total antioxidant activity as analysed by the carotene linoleate system were between 47.21 and 59.45% at 10 mg/mL of sample extract.
