Abstract



Flaxseed (Linum usitatissimum L.) is an oilseed
used in industrial and natural health products. It accumulates many
biologically active compounds having strong phytochemicals and antioxidant
properties. This study aims to provide an entire portfolio of bioactive
compounds present in four different genotypes of flaxseed (
Avangard,
Bony Doon, Linda and Linton).
Biochemical diversity among these four
different types of seed with respect to oxidant and antioxidant parameters
(phenolics, flavonoids, β-karoten, lycopen, DPPH scavenging activity, MDA,
proline, SOD, CAT, APx and GR) were investigated. According to results,
Linda types are found to have
unusual phytochemicals and antioxidant profile since its oxidative status tends
to the production of oxidant molecules which was reflected in differences in
radical scavenging, MDA and antioxidant enzyme systems.
Other
flaxseeds demonstrate noticeable activities with their antioxidant potential
together with their high
phytochemicals.
Therefore, they
may be utilized as a promising source of therapeutics
since they might provide an appropriate source of antioxidants.
