Abstract
The antioxidative effects and major antioxidant components of 0Â kGy, 5Â kGy, 10Â kGy and 15Â kGy irradiated POMU samples were also examined. Our results confirmed that 5Â kGy irradiated POMU had both the highest antioxidative activity and lowest value in IC50 of DPPH radical-scavenging activity. The content of total phenols had no statistically significant changes. Therefore gamma irradiation at 5Â kGy could be a potential method for decontaminate the microbial load of POMU to prolong shelf life and to improve hygienic quality.
