Study of antioxidant activity in pumpkin pulp
The article presents the results of study of antioxidant activity in pumpkin pulp of cultivars Michurinsky and Hokkurin, as well as in hybrids of the first and second generations. Such indicators of antioxidant protection as catalase and peroxidase are analyzed. The content of ascorbic acid (6,04±0,60 mkg/g), carotenoids (202±134 mkg/g), flavonoids (0,25±0,03 %), derivatives of cinnamic acid (0,15±0,01 %), and total antioxidant activity were determined.
