Determination of antioxidant activity using A DPPH and B ABTS scavenging methods for Lycopene and Lyc-Cub-NPs. Results are expressed as a mean ± SD (n = 3). *means significant versus the control group. Each group differed significantly from the others at p ≤ 0.05. Control was ascorbic acid with an IC50 of 3.16 µg/ml for DPPH assay and Gallic acid with an IC50 of 3.56 µg/ml for ABTS assay.
