Antioxidant Activity and Phytochemical Screening of the Apricot Cake Extract: Experimental and Theoretical Studies
The aim of this study was to determine the chemical composition and antioxidant potential of the apricot cakepomace extract (АСЕAPE). The apricot cakepomace was extracted using ethanol (EtOH), silicone (D5) and a mixture of silicone and ethanol. The chemical constituents were analyzed by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS). The antioxidant capacity was evaluated using a variety of antioxidant assays (total antioxidant activity, reducing power and catalase activity).
