Abstract

Epidemiological evidence suggests the critical role of
vegetable consumption in preventing chronic degener­ative diseases. Considering
that pickle is a widely con­sumption type of vegetable in Turkish diet the
objective of the present study was to assess the total phenol con­tent and
antioxidant capacity of pickled vegetables. For this purpose total antioxidant
capacity of 10 fresh and pickled vegetables was analysed by DPPH (2,20-diphe­nyl-1-picryl
hydrazyl) radical scavenging activity and Trolox equivalent antioxidant
capacity (TEAC) meth­ods and total phenolic content (TPC) using Folin–Cio­calteu
reagent. Following the pickling in 15th day there was a significant
(P<0.05) decrease in TPC of all veg­etables, in contrast this TPC increased
significantly af­ter 30th day. Also at 60th day of
pickling the TEAC val­ues of all vegetables are increased significantly
(P<0.05), but DPPH values of green pepper, cauliflower, cucumber and sneak
melon decreased compared with fresh state. Our findings suggest that, pickling
process is relatively a good method for the preservation of phe­nolic acids in
vegetables, and most of the antioxidant capacities remained after 30th
day of fermentation.
