In this work, the total phenolic content (TPC) and antioxidant activity of Ficus carica Linn latex from 18 cultivars were investigated. The TPC of latex was calculated using the Folin�Ciocalteu assay. 1,1-Diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH), 2,2?-azinobis-(3-ethylbenzothiazoline-6-sulfonic acid) (ABTS) and ferric ion reducing antioxidant power (FRAP) were used for antioxidant activity assessment. The bioactive compounds from F. carica latex were extracted via maceration and ultrasound-assisted extraction (UAE) with 75% ethanol as solvent. Under the same extraction conditions, the latex of cultivar �White Genoa� showed the highest antioxidant activity of 65.91% � 1.73% and 61.07% � 1.65% in DPPH, 98.96% � 1.06% and 83.04% � 2.16% in ABTS, and 27.08 � 0.34 and 24.94 � 0.84�mg TE/g latex in FRAP assay via maceration and UAE, respectively. The TPC of �White Genoa� was 315.26 � 6.14 and 298.52 � 9.20��g GAE/mL via the two extraction methods, respectively. The overall results of this work showed that F. carica latex is a potential natural source of antioxidants. This finding is useful for further advancements in the fields of food supplements, food additives and drug synthesis in the future. � 2020, The Author(s).
