This study investigates the antioxidant properties of ethanol extracts from various Capsicum species using FRAP assay and voltammetric methods. The research, conducted by Viktorija Maksimova and colleagues at the University "Goce Delcev," explores the effectiveness of these extracts at pH 3.6 in the presence of Fe3+ and Fe2+ ions, providing insights into their potential health benefits. Results show significant antioxidant activity, indicating the promising use of Capsicum species in functional food applications and health supplements.
