Natural antioxidant contents in the seeds of four roselle Malaysian varieties and a kenaf: a comparison

The natural antioxidant contents in the ethanol extract of the seeds of four varieties of Roselle (UKMR-1, UKMR-2, UKMR-3, and UMKL-1) and Kenaf (V36) were evaluated. The ground seeds were extracted in ethanol by a Soxhlet apparatus. The results indicated that the highest seeds’ extract yield was V3...
