Apiaceae (Umbelliferae) is a large family which involves approximately 455 genus and 3600 species. Coriander (C. sativum L.) and cumin (C. cyminum L.) are two members of Apiaceae family which commonly used for medicinal purpose due to their antioxidant activity. Since the antioxidants are compounds that prevent the oxidation by neutralizing free radicals, researches about their potential utilizations are of great interest for food science and technology. Due to the consumer preference and the worries about synthetic antioxidant compounds, the food industry shows tendency to use natural antioxidant compounds obtained from plant materials. FDA has recognized more than 150 plants as GRAS, without no limitations intake. Coriander, cumin, anise, fennel, thyme and oregano are some plants found in this list. The focus of this research is to contrast the composition of phenolic profile and antioxidant activity of ethanolic and methanolic extracts of these two medicinal herbs belonging to the Apiaceae family. For this purpose, coriander and cumin were analyzed for phenolic compounds and antioxidant assay. Antioxidant assay analyses were performed by applying cupric reducing antioxidant capacity (CUPRAC), 2,2'-azino-bis3-ethylbenzothiazoline-6-sulphonic acid (ABTS), ferric reducing antioxidant power (FRAP), 1,1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl methods (DPPH).

小茴香（Cuminum cyminum L.）和香菜（Coriandrum sativum L.）的抗氧化活性和酚类成分的比较研究

伞形科（伞形科）是一个大家族，涉及约455属和3600种。香菜（C. sativum L.）和小茴香（C. cyminum L。）是A科的两个成员由于其抗氧化活性而通常用于医学目的的家族。由于抗氧化剂是通过中和自由基防止氧化的化合物，因此有关其潜在用途的研究对于食品科学和技术具有极大的兴趣。由于消费者的偏爱和对合成抗氧化剂化合物的担忧，食品工业显示出使用从植物材料获得的天然抗氧化剂化合物的趋势。FDA已将150多种植物确认为GRAS，且无摄入量限制。香菜，小茴香，茴香，茴香，百里香和牛至是该列表中的一些植物。这项研究的重点是对比这两种属于伞形科的草药的乙醇和甲醇提取物的酚类组成和抗氧化活性家庭。为此，对香菜和小茴香进行了酚类化合物分析和抗氧化剂测定。通过使用氧化铜还原抗氧化能力（CUPRAC），2,2'-叠氮基双3-乙基苯并噻唑啉-6-磺酸（ABTS），还原铁抗氧化能力（FRAP），1,1-二苯-2-吡啶甲基肼方法（DPPH）。
