Spectroscopic and DFT techniques on the mechanism of scavenging •OH radicals by crocin.

This study employed a combined experimental and theoretical approach to elucidate the mechanism of crocin-mediated hydroxyl radical (·OH) scavenging. UV-vis spectroscopy revealed that crocin achieved 32% DPPH radical scavenging efficiency within 60 minutes. Nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) analysis...
