Theyaremainlyusedtoimprovethepalatability/tasteandthevisualappearanceof diets.MostSpicescontainphenoliccompoundthatisresponsiblefortheirmedicinal, antioxidantandpreservativeproperties[2].Thethreespicesstudiedincludeginger leaf,curryleafandscentleafdriedusingtraditionalsundriedmethodandovendried method.Theobjectiveofthisstudyistodeterminetheantioxidantpropertiesofthe selectedspice. MaterialsandMethod Thespices(ginger,curryandscentleaf)werepurchasedfrom alocalmarketin Minna,NigerState.Thespicesweresundried5hdailyfor2consecutivedaysand turnedoverat1hintervaltoachieveuniform drying.Aftersundrying,thesample wasmilledtopowderform.Thesecondsamplewasovendriedatatemperatureof 50ºcfor5handturnedoverperiodicallytoaiduniform dryingandmilledtopowder form.The results obtained from analysis ofthe antioxidantproperties were subjectedtoone-wayANOVAandthemeanswereseparatedbyDuncanMultiple RangeTestusingSPSSversion20.
