providing chemical compounds with biological properties. Materials and methods. In the
present work we quantified bioactive compounds such as vitamin C (ascorbic and
dehydroascorbic acids), and total phenolic compounds composed mainly of phenolic acids,
flavonols and anthocyanins, as well as evaluating the antioxidant capacity through different
in vitro tests (Folin-Ciocalteu, ABTS·+, DPPH· and FRAP) in wild blackthorn (P. spinosa L.) …
