Sinay H, Mahulette F, YáñezJA. 2022. Determination of free radical scavenging activity, phenolicand flavonoid content of seven corn cultivars from the Southwest Maluku District, Indonesia.Biodiversitas 23:5974-5981.The variation of corn (Zea maysL.) kernel might be considered as a surrogate indicator of the phytochemical and bioactive content. This study aimed to determine the phenolics, flavonoids, and free radical scavenging activity of seven local corn cultivars from Kisar Island, Southwest Maluku District in Indonesia. Sample extraction was done by the maceration method. Flavonoid content wasdetermined using the Dowd method, and total phenolic content was performed using the Folin-Ciocalteu method. Free radical scavenging activity was determined using the DPPH radical scavenging method. One-way ANOVA was performed with Duncan multiple range tests to assess the differences between c...
