  1. All values are expressed as mean ± SEM
  2. TPC 1. TPC value of > 1000 mg GAE/100 g is considered as having high total phenolic content
  3. TPC 2. TPC expressed as miligram equivalent to gallic acid per 100 g of dry weight (mg GAE/100 g)
  4. ORAC: ORAC value expressed as μM Trolox Equivalent (TE)/100 g, are mean values from triplicate wells in duplicate Experiments, with SEM < 20%
