Summary

In leaves of five white cabbage strains, total antioxidant activity, total phenol and ascorbic acid contents were determined after harvesting and during storage at room (10 days) and at low temperature (2 months). A slight increase in ascorbic acid level was observed in stored cabbage, especially in the low temperature treatment. Phenolics were accumulated in cabbage stored at 20 °C. The changes in antioxidant activity were not correlated with the level of antioxidants, such as phenol compounds and vitamin C.
