1. Antioxidants in Andean food and meals
Sammanfattning : Abstract The constant need to improve health and to prevent disease in Bolivia, especially in the Andean region with its extreme environmental conditions (high altitude and lower temperatures), motivated us to extend studies of antioxidant sources in foods and plants, since antioxidants are believed to have major health benefits. Spectrophotometric methods, such as ABTS (2, 2’- azinobis-3-ethylbenzotiazoline-6-sulfonic acid) and FRAP (ferric reduction antioxidant power), were used to evaluate antioxidant activity. LÄS MER

3. Factors affecting the anthocyanidin concentration in fruits of Vaccinium myrtillus L
Sammanfattning : Vaccinium myrtillus, a small dwarf-shrub native to northern Europe has received much attention during recent decades because of its economic value and as a result of the health promoting substances found in the fruits. The work outlined in this thesis focused on the effects of exogenous factors such as temperature, light and nutrient availability on the concentration of anthocyanidins in the fruits. LÄS MER
