Research ArticleOpen accessAll words, across the recordFlavonoids from the Zizania latifolia Bracts: Extraction Optimization, Antioxidant Activity and Exploration in Strawberry PreservationTong Wang, Yuzhu Zhang, Lijie Ben et al.Zizania latifolia bracts are Z. latifolia-based agricultural waste materials, distributed in various parts of the world. In the current study, the Response Surface Method (RSM) was used to optimize the cellulase-assisted extraction of Total Flavonoids from Z. latifolia bracts (TFZB). Then, the in vitro antioxidant capacity and the potential effect on strawberry preservation were assessed. The results showed that the … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 17, Issue 1 · 15 Mar 2021 · 6,363 accessesView PDF Cite
