Effect of Heating of the Gel at Different Temperatures on Antioxidant Activity in Different Accessions of Aloe (Aloe barbadensis Miller.)

The experiment consisted of three accessions of aloe viz., yellow flowering accession-1, yellow flowering accession-2 and orange flowering accession-3 and three temperatures viz., 50° C, 75° C and 100° C temperatures. The antioxidant activity of aloe gel was studied in three accessions heated at different temperatures. The results of the study indicated that, the highest antioxidant activity was recorded by yellow flowering accession-1 at all heating temperatures during the 30 days of storage followed by yellow flowering accession-2 and orange flowering accession-3.
