Chemical Composition and Antioxidant Activity of the Ceratonia Siliqua L. Seeds Oil (original) (raw)

2021, Research Square (Research Square)

In this work, we are interested in the antioxidant activity of Ceratonia Siliqua L. seeds oil. After extraction of seeds oil by Soxhlet, we characterized by GC-MS and evaluated the antioxidant activity by DPPH • and ABTS +•. The obtained results show that the seeds oil of Ceratonia Siliqua L. contains various organic compounds, the majority of which are fatty acids. Furthermore, the determination of IC 50 by the DPPH • and ABTS +• methods show that cyclohexane has good IC 50 compared to hexane.
