Reducing power and nitr ite scavenging ability of dr ied Haw prepared by different drying methods

Drying Method	Reducing power (5.0mg/mL,OD₇₀₀)	Nitrite-scavenging abilities (5.0mg/mL,%)
Freeze drying	3.44±0.00^1)a2)	88.00±2.34^a
Hotair drying	2.11±0.01^b	55.13±0.31^b

Values are mean±standard deviation of triplicate determinations.
Different superscripts within a column (a-b) indicate significant differences (p<0.05).
