Biochemists from RUDN University have determined which substances in peach leaves provide the antioxidant effect of their extract. They investigated the composition of the powders obtained from leaves of several varieties of peach and found that high polyphenol content correlates with antioxidant properties. The results will contribute to production of antioxidants from natural sources. The article was published in the International Journal of Mass Spectrometry.
