Phenolic constituents of six barley varieties, namely Falcon, AC Metcalfe, Tyto, Tercel, Phoenix and Peregrine were separated into free, soluble conjugate and insoluble-bound fractions. Soluble conjugates and insoluble-bound phenolics were extracted into diethyl ether after consecutive alkaline hydrolysis for 4 h. Total phenolic content of each of the three fractions was determined by using Folin–Ciocalteau method. Total antioxidant capacity of the phenolic fractions was determined by trolox equivalent antioxidant capacity (TEAC) assay. The extracts were evaluated for their efficacy in scavenging of 1,1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) radical. Oxygen radical scavenging capacity (ORACFL) of the extracts was determined using a fluorometric assay. Effectiveness of phenolic extracts in inhibiting oxidation of human LDL cholesterol and radical-induced supercoiled DNA breakage was also evaluated. The contribution of insoluble-bound phenolics toward total phenolic content was significantly (p < 0.05) higher than the soluble phenolics for all barley extracts tested. The ratio of soluble to insoluble phenolics ranged from 1:27 to 1:35. TEAC and ORAC values and DPPH radical scavenging capacity of the insoluble phenolic fraction were significantly (p < 0.05) higher than those of their insoluble counterparts. A similar trend was observed against inhibition of LDL cholesterol oxidation and radical-induced DNA breakage.
