Evaluation of the antioxidant activities of aqueous extracts from seven wild plants from the Andes using an in vivo yeast assay

The antioxidant activities of the aqueous extracts of seven wild plants were investigated, using both in vitro and in vivo assays. The former relied on the use of 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) and the latter, on the sensibility towards hydrogen peroxide of the yeast sod1 mutant. The studied p...
