The Antioxidant Capacities and Consumption Per Capita of Edible Wild Species and Local Varieties Collected from Turkey within the GEF-Funded Biodiversity for Food and Nutrition (BFN) Project
Abstract
Biodiversity for Food and Nutrition (BFN) Project enhancing global knowledge of biodiversity for food and nutrition by providing nutrition information about wild species that are currently underutilized or are disappearing from local diets. Wild edible plants are eaten raw, cooked, dried and processed depending on the region where they grow. Wild edible foods are collected from particularly in rural areas and many households village and used for home consumption or sold in local markets. The antioxidant capacity analyses of wild species collected from Turkey within the BFN Project were done by two different methods, DPPH (2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl radical scavenging effect) and TEAC (Trolox Equivalent Antioxidant Capacity/ABTS Method). The antioxidant capacity results of the 42 plant species collected from Turkey were compared to the results of the Butylated hydroxyl toluene (BHT) which is a reference synthetic antioxidant compound.
The radical scavenging effect values of Rhus coriaria (1825.3) and Berberis crataegina (1380.6) are the closest of BHT value according to the DPPH method. The antioxidant capacity values (µM trolox equivalent / g sample) of Rhus coriaria (3055.6) and Berberis crataegina (2362.1) are the closest of BHT antioxidant value (16651.9) according to the TEAC method. When the results of the two methods are compared, the antioxidant capacity results have paralells in most of the species. The annual intake of mM trolox equivalent antioxidant capacity was calculated by multiplying the consumption per capita of TEAC results. This process has led to a different ranking than above.
