Abstract Pomegranate fruit (Punica granatum L.) is a source of numerous phenolic compounds, and it contains flavonoids such as anthocyanins, anthocyanidins, cyanidins, catechins and other complexes of flavonoids, ellagitannins, and hydrolyzed tannins. Pomegranate juice shows antioxidant, antiproliferative, and anti-atherosclerotic properties. The antioxidant capacity (TEAC) of the pomegranate juices was measured using electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) spectroscopy and 1,1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH•) as a source of free radicals, and the total phenolic (TP) content was measured using UV-Vis spectroscopy. All the examined pomegranate juices exhibited relatively high antioxidant properties. The TEAC values determined by means of EPR spectroscopy using Trolox (TE) as a free radical scavenger were in the range of 463.12 to 1911.91 μmol TE/100 mL juice. The TP content measured by the Folin-Ciocalteu method, using gallic acid (GA) as a free radical scavenger, widely varied in the investigated pomegranate juice samples and ranged from 1673.62 to 5263.87 mg GA/1 L juice. The strongest antioxidant properties were observed with the fresh pomegranate juices obtained from the fruits originating from Israel, Lebanon, and Azerbaijan. Correlation analysis of numerical data obtained by means of EPR spectroscopy (TEAC) and UV-Vis spectroscopy (TP) gave correlation coefficient (r) = 0.90 and determination coefficient (r2) = 0.81 (P <0.05).

This article describes the formation of the chemical electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) spectroscopy institute established by Academician Vladislav V. Voevodsky (1917–1967) along with the history of the development of the instrumentation basis for this field of science in the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics (USSR). The design of the first EPR spectrometers for the chemical radio spectroscopy initiated the emergence of a new scientific instrumentation field in this country. Based on recollections shared by scientists and engineers and an examination of archive materials, the author reconstructs relevant events and identifies major participants in this process.

AbstractThe purpose of this study is to identify the vanadium acceptor levels in semi-insulating (SI) 6H-SiC using optical admittance spectroscopy (OAS) and electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) spectroscopy. OAS conductance peaks near at 0.67 ± 0.02 eV and 0.70 ± 0.02 eV are identified as V3+/4+ levels at the quasi-cubic sites. An OAS peak at 0.87 eV is assigned to the same transition at the hexagonal site. EPR measurements before illumination revealed the characteristic spectrum of V3+. The presence of the V3+ signal supports the identification of the OAS peaks as transitions from the V3+/4+ level to the conduction band. Photo-induced EPR measurements reveal a change in the intensity of V3+ and V4+ at 0.8 ± 0.1 eV, where the amplitude of the V3+ charge state decreases and that of V4+ increases by approximately equal amounts. Although the individual sites are not resolved in the photo-induced EPR data, the 0.8 eV feature strongly supports the assignment of the three OAS peaks as acceptor levels.
