Improved ABTS+ [2,20-azinobis(3-ethylbenzothiazoline-6-sulfonic acid)]
and DPPH (2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl), hydroxyl radical and hydrogen peroxide scavenging
capacities, ferric reducing property and in vivo antioxidant capacity using Saccharomyces cerevisiae
were observed in case of freeze-dried water extract of fermented wheat as compared to unfermented
sample. Hence, SSF could be a promising technology to enhance the production and extraction of
phenolic compounds for the design of different functional foods and for the specific use as nutraceuticals
