Abstract
The inconsistent methods of harvest, identification, and preparation of brown algae samples make it difficult to compare the results of certain measurements across different studies, such as total phenolic contents (TPC), total flavonoid contents (TFC), and total antioxidant capacities (TAC). Therefore, this study aims to systematically measure and compare TPC, TFC, and TAC in 10 types of standardized brown algae extracts provided by the Bio-Resource Information System of Korea. Among the ten brown algae extracts, Ishige foliacea exhibited the highest levels of TPC and TAC, followed by Sargassum nigrifolium. TAC was measured by the following four assays: ABTS, DPPH, superoxide radical scavenging activities, and ferric reducing antioxidant power. TAC was found to be positively correlated with TPC (p<0.05) but not TFC, indicating that Ishige foliacea and Sargassum nigrifolium have potential use as marine antioxidative food material.
