Quantifcation of total phenolic compounds in papaya fruit peel

Phenolics are widely distributed in many plants and are known to play a major role in the plant and animal kingdom. Phenolics exhibit strong antioxidant properties and have been used as antitumor, anticarcinogenic, antiviral and hypotensive agents. Plant by-products contain a variety of these phenol...

Quantifcation of total phenolic compounds in papaya fruit peel
description Phenolics are widely distributed in many plants and are known to play a major role in the plant and animal kingdom. Phenolics exhibit strong antioxidant properties and have been used as antitumor, anticarcinogenic, antiviral and hypotensive agents. Plant by-products contain a variety of these phenolic compounds and can therefore be used as an alternative source of phenolics due to their higher antioxidant capacity and low toxicity compared to those of synthetically derived phenolics. In this study, Sekaki papaya (Carica papaya) peel was used as an alternative source of phenolics.

Total Phenolic Content was analysed using the Folin-Ciocalteau method and the total phenolic content (TPC) was expressed as Gallic Acid Equivalent (GAE).
