There is increasing interest in Australian finger lime (Citrus australasica) due to its nutritional and bioactive potential. In this study, polar extracts from five finger lime cultivars were investigated for their potential bioactivity using a range of assays: antioxidant capacity (total phenolic content (TPC), ferric reducing antioxidant power (F...

... the AChE inhibition achieved by the pulp extracts (mean of 27 ± 14% inhibition) was lower than the average inhibition achieved by the peel extracts (40 ± 22% inhibition; Table 3), but this difference was not statistically significant according to Student's t test (p > 0.05). Furthermore, there was no clear correlation between the level of AChE inhibition found in the pulp and peel samples from the same lime variety (r 4 = 0.08, p > 0.05). ...
