DPPH (2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl)
scavenging activity
Two sets of experiments were devised and 6 testtubes, each for two separately extracted chitosan
(Process1 & Process2) and 1 for the control set was
prepared. Different concentrations of DPPH (ranging
from 0.25ml to 2ml) were poured in the respective test
tubes and the volume was made upto 4ml by adding
corresponding amount of chitosan-I and chitosan-II in
the respective sets. The control/blank was prepared by
adding 2ml DPPH and 2ml water. All the test tubes were
completely covered to avoid exposure to light and
shaken vigorously. The test-tubes were then stored in
dark for about 20 minutes. A spectrophotometer was
then used to measure the optical density (O.D) of the
solutions.
