Evaluation of antioxidant activity and total phenolics of selected Czech honeys
Original language description
Honey serves as a good source of natural antioxidants, which are effective in reducing the risk occurrence of heart disease, cancer, cataracts, different inflammatory processes and immune-system decline. In the fresh selected Czech honey samples originated mainly from the region North Moravia antioxidant activity and total polyphenol content were determined. A total of forty honey samples (multifloral, lime, rape, raspberry, mixture and honeydew honeys) native to different stations gained in the periodfrom May by August year 2006 were analysed. Total phenolics (TP) content was determined by the modified Folin-Ciocalteu method [TP was expressed as mg of gallic acid equivalent (GA eq.) per kg of honey]. For evaluation of the antioxidant activity (AOA) three different methods were used, the ferric reducing antioxidant power (FRAP) assay, the 1,1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) assay and the 2,2?-azinobis(3-ethylbenzothiazolin)-6-sulfphonate (ABTS) assay. AOA was expressed in mg ascorbic
