paper, antioxidant activity of strawberries extracted with different solvents was
investigated since they are consumed by people due to their anticancer,
anti-atherosclerotic, anti-inflammatory and anti-neurodegenerative properties.
For this purpose, different acidified extraction solvents such as water ( <i>ES1 </i>), acetone ( <i>ES2 </i>), acetonitrile ( <i>ES3 </i>),
methanol ( <i>ES4 </i>) and ethanol ( <i>ES5 </i>) were used in extraction process of
strawberries. The effects of different extraction solvents on the antioxidant
activity were evaluated by measuring the </span> <span style="font-size:10pt;font-family:’Times New Roman’, serif;" lang="en-us" xml:lang="en-us">reducing power, </span> <span style="font-size:10pt;font-family:’Times New Roman’, serif;" lang="en-us" xml:lang="en-us">2,2′-azino-bis(3-ethylbenzothiazoline-6-sulfonic acid
