The Comparison of Total Phenolics, Total Antioxidant, and Anti-Tyrosinase Activities of Korean Sargassum Species

Table 4

Correlation between TPC, TFC, and four TAC values.

	TPC	TFC	ABTS	DPPH	FRAP	Superoxide scavenging
TPC	1	0.97	0.97	0.95	0.93	0.77
TFC	—	1	0.98^−	0.92	0.87	0.75^−
ABTS	—	—	1	0.91	0.87	0.80
DPPH	—	—	—	1	0.98	0.69
FRAP	—	—	—	—	1	0.67
Superoxide scavenging	—	—	—	—	—	1

TPA, TFA, TAC stand for total phenolic amount, total flavonoid amount, and total antioxidant capacity, respectively. DPPH radical scavenging capacity, ABTS radical scavenging capacity, superoxide radical scavenging capacity, and ferric-reducing antioxidant power were measured for the analysis of TAC. (; ).
