Resumo
Over the last few years, there was a growth on the import level of fruits in Brazil. Lycium barbarum, also known as goji-berry, is a red berry fruit
with oval shape found mainly in Tibet with high importing demands. This berry has a high antioxidant potential and it is sold in Brazil on the
dried form to guarantee shelf-life extension and to avoid microbiological contamination. The aims of this study was to evaluate the goji-berry’s
biocompounds by 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) scavenging activity and oxygen radical absorbance capacity ORAC assays analyzing
the hydroalcoholic and the aqueous extracts processed by radiation. Total phenolics were also determined by the Folin-Ciocalteu assay. In
addition, the samples were bought at the retail market in the city of São Paulo (Brazil) and irradiated by electron beam accelerator in the doses
of 0, 2.5, 5.0, 7.5 e 10.0 kGy. Thus, an increase significantly in the doses of ionizing radiation in this case did not result in the goji-berry’s
antioxidant activity.
