The aim of this study was to evaluate antioxidant potential of four milling fractions of selected cereals grew in the year 2009 and 2010. Free radical scavenging activity of samples was measured using DPPH assay and reducing power was determined using FRAP assay. Secondary, total phenolic and flavonoid content of cereal extracts was evaluated. We found that flour fractions (break flour and reduction flour) showed the lower proportion of the total antioxidant potential than bran fractions (fine bran and coarse bran), which was balanced in observed years. Extract from barley had the highest values of antioxidant activity and polyphenol content.
