Broccoli and cabbage are known to have antioxidant, cholesterol-lowering, and anticancer effects due to their high bioactive component levels. This study applied 70% ethanol and hydrothermal extraction to separate bioactive components from broccoli and cabbage. 30oBrix extracts were freeze-dried and then diluted in various concentrations with distilled water for analysis. Total polyphenol contents, DPPH radical scavenging activity, ABTS radical scavenging activity, ferric ion reducing antioxidant power, and hydrogen peroxide scavenging activity were analyzed. The diverse antioxidant assays, except DPPH radical scavenging activity, showed that hydrothermal extracts had significantly higher activity than the 70% ethanol extracts (p<0.05). In this study, it suggested that hydrothermal extraction is relatively effective in producing broccoli and cabbage extracts. Moreover, hydrothermal extraction conditions could be low-cost and environmentally friendly.
