Comparative analysis of polyphenolic and antioxidant constituents in dried seedlings and seedless Acacia nilotica fruits

The phenolic and antioxidant constituents in Acacia nilotica fruits have become an important source of medicinal and therapeutic benefit with powerful biological properties. This study investigated the phenolic content and antioxidant capacity of powdered Acacia fruits with seeds and without seeds....
