Antioxidant Power on Dermal Cells by Textiles Dyed with an Onion (<i>Allium cepa</i> L.) Skin Extract

In this study, the phenol loading and antioxidant activity of wool yarn prepared with the aqueous extract of onion (<i>Allium cepa</i> L.) skin was enhanced by implementing the dyeing process with the use of alum as a mordant. Spectrophotometric and chromatographic methods were applied f...
