Red grapes are grown from the ancient times for culinary, religious and traditional purposes. In current study red grapes were screened using antioxidant analysis through the determination of Total Phenolic Content (TPC), total flavonoids, free radical scavenging ability (DPPH assay), Ferric Reducing Antioxidant Power (FRAP) and β-carotene antioxidant activity, which was 1876.62 ± 92.02 mg GAE/100 g, 489.12 ± 15.45 mg/100 g, 75.09 ± 6.44%, 72.32 ± 3.61% and 43.24 ± 2.15 mg TE/g, respectively. The obtained data for each parameter were subjected to descriptive statistical analysis.
