Antioxidant Activity of Fermented Soybean Extract by Chih-Chieh Hu (2708629)

“…The results demonstrate that the fermented soybean extract has strong antioxidant activity against unsaturated fatty acid peroxidation compared to vitamin C and Trolox. By the means of the test system developed by Y. Toshiki et al., it is shown that the fermented soybean extract can function both as an antioxidant and as a free radical acceptor that can convert free radicals into harmless substances through an energy-decreasing procedure. …”

Techniques, challenges, and opportunities in mobile thematic map design for data journalism by Lily Houtman (21008595)
