Antioxidant activities and Anti-inflammatory activity of the extracts were evaluated by a 1, 1-diphenyl, 2-picrylhydrazyl free radical (DPPH), 2, 2’-Azinobis (3-ethylbenzothiazoline-6-sulfonic acid) (ABTS) and antilipoxygenase assay for the water extraction of Thespesia lampas Dalz & Gibs. Ascorbic acid, gallic acid and indomethacin were used as reference standards for DPPH, ABTS and anti-lipox...

This paper presents the findings of electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) spectroscopy experiments conducted on two different samples: 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) and Manganese Chloride (MnCl2) dissolved in H2O. The were at Dr. D. Petasis EPR lab located Allegheny College, Meadville, PA, USA. A Varian X-Band spectrometer was utilized for analysis absorption spectra. primary objective t...

Radical Scavenging capacity Abstract: In-vitro antioxidant activity of methanolic extract of Rhinacanthus nasutus leaves was determined by DPPH free radical scavenging assay and Reducing Power assays. Ascorbic acid was used as standard and positive control for both the analysis. All the analysis was made with the use of UV-Visible Spectrophotometer. The methanolic extract of Rhinacanthus nasutu...

Hemp protein hydrolysates with various yields of trichloroacetic acid (TCA)-soluble peptides (Ysp) and surface hydrophobicity (Ho) were obtained by Neutrase ® hydrolysis from hemp protein isolate (HPI). The peptide profiles, amino acid composition and antioxidant activities (DPPH radical scavenging ability, reducing power and Fe chelating ability) of the hydrolysates, obtained at 60–240 min, we...

This work proposes the application of batch-injection analysis with amperometric detection to determine the antioxidant capacity of real samples based on the measurement of DPPH radical consumption. The efficient concentration or EC50 value corresponds to the concentration of sample or standard required to scavenge 50% DPPH radicals. For the accurate determination of EC50, samples were incubate...
