Article Synopsis
- A study in Romania analyzed the antioxidant activity of organic and non-organic apple varieties using a specific method called DPPH kinetics-PCA.
- Organic apples showed significantly higher antioxidant activity compared to non-organic ones across different parts of the apple (core and shell).
- The research highlights that the DPPH reaction rate during the initial half-minute was key in differentiating between the apple types, marking the first use of this method for such evaluations in fruits.
