The antioxidant activity of V118 as measured by PCL (30.11
μmol TE/g DW) was consistent with results reported for the
traditional tomato varieties (6.0148.83 μmol TE/g DW).22
The ORAC-L value was 11.97 μmol TE/g DW, which is a little
lower than the ORAC-L values of the traditional Bush tomato
(18.6 μmol TE/g DW).34 The FRAP value of V118 was 54.95
μmol AAE/g DW, slightly higher than what has been reported for
other tomatoes (48.6 μmol AAE/g DW),9 while the ORAC-H
value for the purple tomato was 323.23 μmol TE/g DW, which is
2-folds higher than that of the ORAC-H values of the traditional
tomato cultivar San Marzano (140 μmol TE/g DW).50
