Abstract


This research was carried out to investigate the chemical composition, and phytochemicals of some fruit by-products; kiwi peels (KP), banana peels (BP), banana leaves (BL) and olive leaves (OL). All tested samples were extracted by water, 80 % methanol, 80% ethanol and 80% acetone. Total phenols, flavonoids and tannins for all extracts were determined as well as the sample extracts were evaluated for their antioxidant, antimicrobial, anticancer and anti-diabetic activities. Phenolic compounds isolated from acetone extracts of samples were characterized and identified by HPLC.
Antioxidant assays by DPPH•, ABTS•+, reducing power and Fe2+
