Antioxidant capacity and phenolic and flavonoid content of macro algae in the northern coasts of the Persian Gulf in Bushehr province
The purpose of this study was to evaluate the antioxidant properties of hydroalchoholic extractions of three species of green, brown and red algae. The highest and the lowest total phenol contents was in L. snyderia (113/9±0/69 mg gallic acid per gram of extract) and the green algae E. intestinalis (72/36±6/05 mg gallic acid per gram of extract) respectively. The highest values of total flavonoid was founded in the red algae L. snyderia (41/05±1/95 mg Rutin per gram of extract) however, the lowest values was (12/7±0/41 mg Rutin per gram of extract) in the brown alga C. trinodis. L. snyderia showed the most antioxidant activity, and C. trinodis had lowest amounts of antioxidant potential by the radical, azinobis ethylen benz thiazoline sulphonic acid (ABTS) test. there were significant differences between antioxidant activities of algae according the ABTS test.
