Özet

In this study, the antioxidant contents of Ribes multflorum Kit. Ex Roem. & Schult (black currant) which was grown in Emir and Kumalar mountains in Afyonkarahisar were investigated. Ribes multiflorum Kit. Ex Roem. & Schult is found on 1700 m at Emir Mountain in Dumluca, on 1400 and 1600 m at Kumalar Mountains in Basoren. Antioxidant activities of samples were determined by free radical scavenging effect, chelating activity with Fe (+2) and H2O2 inhibition methods. The lower EC50 value, the higher antioxidant power. In the presence of metal ions, super reactive hydroxyl radical may be formed by Fenton reaction. The findings obtained in the present work indicated that the Ribes multiflorum are potential source of natural antioxidant. Their antioxidant properties probably depend on concentration of sample.
