description | Introduction. Parsley is a widely consumed culinary herb and it is employed for the treatment of various diseases. Objective. Evaluation of bioactive compounds and antioxidant activity of parsley leaves powder. Material and methods. Parsley leaves were dried, ground and then sieved to produce parsley leaves powder. Polyphenols, flavonoids, and carotenoids contents as well as the antioxidant activity (DPPH radical scavenging activity and Ferric-reducing antioxidant power) were determined. Results. The determination of polyphenols, flavonoids, and carotenoids revealed respective contents of 10.06 mg GAE/ g, 2.51 mg QE/ g, and 4.32 mg EβC/ g of dry plant material. Parsley leaves powder exhibited also a strong antioxidant activity as revealed by both methods used in the present study. Conclusion. Parsley leaves powder shows an interesting nutraceutical potential and it can successfully be used in the formulation of functional food products. |
