Law/Patents - Cosmetics, Beauty / Activity of a fruit extract
French term or phrase: antiradicalaire
"Les propriétés antiradicalaires et antilipopéroxydantes de ce fruit sont dues aux polyphénols et aux anthocyanines présentes dans la phase méthanolique."
I am wondering whether 'antiradicalaire' should be translated as 'antiradical' or 'antioxidant'. I have found examples of both and am not sure which to use. Thanks for any suggestions.

agree  Ana Pando & Anne Spence (X): I'd use anti-radical. I'm translating beauty product descriptions at the moment and this has come up many times.
