The aim of this project is the development of a spectrophotometric method for the determination of the total antioxidant capacity of aqueous plant extracts, based on the reduction of Cu (II) to Cu (I) in medium buffer (pH 7.0, ammonium acetate) containing 4,4 '-carboxy-2, 2'-quinoline acid. The plant extracts are rich in antioxidants and the addition of aliquots of these extracts in a sol…
