Fig. 1From: Effects of the drying method and extraction solvent on antioxidant and anti-inflammatory activity of Melosira nummuloides bioproductsAntioxidant activity of different Melosira nummuloides extracts. DPPH∙ (a) and ABTS∙ (b) radical scavenging activity assays were used to assess the antioxidant activity of extracts. Data (mean ± standard deviation) represent three triplicate independent experiments. HAD-HW hot-air drying and hot water extract, FD-HW freeze-drying and hot water extract, HAD-EtOH hot-air drying and ethanol extract, FD-EtOH freeze-drying and ethanol extract, HAD-MeOH hot-air drying and methanol extract, FD-MeOH freeze-drying and methanol extract, HAD-CM hot-air drying and chloroform:methanol (2:1 v/v) extract, FD-CM freeze-drying and chloroform:methanol (2:1 v/v) extractBack to article page
