Determination of Polyphenols and Flavonoids

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
The total phenolic compound content was determined by using Folin–Ciocalteu reagent [63 ]. The blue color developed was read at 765 nm in UV/visible spectrophotometer (Jasco v-630, Thermo Fisher Scientific, Tokyo, Japan). Total flavonoids were estimated by using the Woisky and Salatino method using AlCl3 reagent [64 (link)]. The conventional and non-conventional solvent controls were performed in each determination to scan any possible interference. The determinations were performed in triplicate and the results were expressed as μg of gallic acid equivalent (GAE) per milliliter (μg GAE/mL) and quercetin equivalents (QE) per milliliter (μg QE/mL) for polyphenols and flavonoids, respectively. Folin–Ciocalteu reagent, phenol reagent, AlCl3, gallic acid, and quercetin were acquired at Sigma Aldrich, St. Louis, USA. The extraction yield in each solvent was determined as the amount of chemical component per mL of extract.

About PubCompare

Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.

We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.

However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
