[Retracted] The Antioxidant and Starch Hydrolase Inhibitory Activity of Ten Spices in an In Vitro Model of Digestion: Bioaccessibility of Anthocyanins and Carotenoids

Table 4

The total monomeric anthocyanin pigment contents of the spices prior to digestion as well as after gastric and duodenal digestion in mg cyaniding-3-glucoside equivalents per g wet weight of spice (mg/g). denotes statistically significant difference as compared with the respective values prior to in vitro digestion. Values represent mean ± SEM of 3 ≤ independent experiments.
