Estimation of Bioactive Compound, Maslinic Acid by HPTLC, and Evaluation of Hepatoprotective Activity on Fruit Pulp of Ziziphus jujuba Mill. Cultivars in India

Table 1

Integral antioxidant capacity (IAC) of fruit pulp extracts of eight cultivars of Z. jujuba and maslinic acid: water-soluble antioxidant capacity, corresponding to the activity expressed as nmol equivalents of ascorbic acid for each gram of tested extract; lipid soluble antioxidant capacity, corresponding to the activity expressed as nmol equivalents of Trolox for each gram of tested extract.
