The analysis of variance for the functional components of hot peppers is shown in Table 1. The analysis was conducted to determine whether there was significant difference between capsaicinoids and antioxidants with radiation treatments and storage time. Results indicated that radiation treatments had no significant effect on the concentrations of all chemical parameters under study. Storage duration, however, affected the levels of carotenoids and ascorbic acid significantly (p < 0.05); storage for 90 days resulted in significantly lower concentrations as compared to the day 0.
