Antioxidant activities of Edible Bird’s Nest (EBN) / Fatma Nabilah Muhammad Fakhran, Siti Azima Abdul Muttalib and Eddie Ti Tjih Tan
Edible bird’s nest (EBN) is well-known as an expensive animal product. This product is the saliva of swiftlets that has been proven to give many health benefits. Existing studies showed that saliva contains high antioxidant properties which contributed to the benefits. However, the antioxidant prope...
