Elicitor Mixtures Significantly Increase Bioactive Compounds, Antioxidant Activity, and Quality Parameters in Sweet Bell Pepper

Table 3

Radical scavenging activity of sweet bell pepper as a result of MIF application.

MIF application	Antioxidant activity (µmol of TE·g^−1)
Control	5.17 ± 0.38
Foliar	4.09 ± 0.60
Whole plant	4.33 ± 0.27
Immature fruit	2.72 ± 0.20
Mature fruit	5.47 ± 0.62

Each value is the mean of three replicates ± standard error. Different letters in each column express significant difference P ≤ 0.05 by Tukey’s test.
