Comparison of the Antioxidant Activity of Aspalathin with That of Other Plant Phenols of Rooibos Tea (Aspalathus linearis), α-Tocopherol, BHT, and BHA
Abstract
The antioxidant activity of aspalathin, the major flavonoid of unfermented rooibos tea, was compared with that of other polyphenols present in rooibos tea, α-tocopherol, BHT, and BHA using the β-carotene bleaching, α,α-diphenyl-β-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) radical scavenging, and automated Rancimat methods. The phenolic compounds include the flavonoids vitexin, rutin, quercetin, luteolin, isoquercitrin, (+)-catechin, and the phenolic acids protocatechuic acid, caffeic acid, p -hydroxybenzoic acid, p -coumaric acid, ferulic acid, syringic acid, and vanillic acid. (+)-Catechin had the longest induction period according to the Rancimat method, while BHT was the most effective inhibitor of β-carotene bleaching. Compounds with the highest degree of DPPH radical scavenging and highest rate of scavenging were caffeic acid and aspalathin, respectively. Aspalathin offered less protection against lipid oxidation than BHT and α-tocopherol according to the Rancimat and β-carotene methods, but it displayed a higher ability to scavenge the DPPH radical.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
