Antioxidant properties of three banana cultivars (Musa acuminate ‘Berangan’, ‘Mas’ and ‘Raja’) extracts

The effect of solvent type in antioxidant compounds extraction from banana tissues was studied. The solvent system used was pure methanol, ethanol, acetone and their aqueous solution at 50% and 70% concentrations. Comparison among three common cultivars of banana in Malaysia (Berangan, Mas and Raja)...
