The determination of flavonoid contents in mulberry and their scavenging effects on superoxide radicals

TL;DR: In this article, it was shown that mulberry leaves contain at least four flavonoids, two of which are rutin and quercetin, and that the scavenging effects of most mulberry extracts were greater than those of rutins (52.0%) at a concentration of 5μg ml −1.
