Sample of pomegranates which are named Punica granatum L. cv. Hicaznar, genotype 19-121, genotype 17-67, and genotype 19-66 obtained from BATEM (West Mediterranean Agricultural Research Institute) in Anlalya. The EC50 values of DPPH scavenging activities in peel extracts (PE) had 23.4-fold higher than the juice extracts (JE), and the seed extracts (SE) had 2.3-fold higher than JE. The reducing power in peel extracts was found to be 4.7-fold higher than SE and 10.5-fold higher than the JE. The highest metal chelating capacity (37.22%) was determined in peel, while the lowest (7.151%) in seed. Generally, in peel, the total polyphenol, flavonoid, tannin contents, and in juice, the total polyphenol, anthocyanin, tannin contents, and acidity significantly affected to antioxidant activities.en10.1007/s10068-012-0049-6info:eu-repo/semantics/closedAccessHicaznarreducing powermetal chelating capacitytanninpunicic acidCapacityExtractsOilPeroxidationArticle212373387Q3WOS:0003034601000092-s2.0-84862103359Q2
