Division: | Sciences physiques et des mathématiques / Aucun | Catégorie: | Intermédiaire | Région: | Saskatoon | Ville: | Saskatoon, SK | École: | Walter Murray Collegiate | Sommaire: | This project determined which variety of bell pepper (red, yellow, orange, green) and which method of cooking them (raw or heated) is most beneficial, in terms of antioxidant properties. Using a fluorescent plate reader, I found that the liquid portions of bell peppers contain high levels of oxidants, one of them being hydrogen peroxide. Heating the peppers destroys these potentially harmful oxidants. |
