Antioxidant properties of the dried mango samples varied from 50.7 to 103.8 m mol TE/g db (Fig. 2a). There was significant decrease in antioxidant properties of mango powder with drying technique involving heat during drying (p 0.05). Hung (2012) reported ABTS scavenging activities of dehydrated mango varying from 46.7 to 73.8 m mol TE/g db. Antioxidant activity of dried mango flesh was
27.1 m mol/g db ascorbic acid equivalent using ABTS assay (Soong & Barlow, 2004). The values obtained for antioxidant capacity as Trolox equivalent are within the close range of previously reported results.
