Aim: To evaluate the distribution of metabolites and in vitro antioxidant activity in the berry and shoot of Solanum pseudocapsicum (S. pseudocapsicum). Study Design: Berry and shoot samples of S. pseudocapsicum were randomly collected from different plants of the species in the same natural habitat, and were subsequently processed and used for the spectrophometric quantification of their metabolites and in vitro antioxidant activity. Methodology: The samples were oven-dried to a constant weight, and were later milled separately into a fine particle size powder. The milled samples were extracted with methanol, and the extracts were analyzed for their metabolites content and In vitro antioxidant activity using appropriate
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
