Received 25 August 2014, Revised 08 December 2014, Accepted 10 December 2014 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------Abstract Rutin, one of the excellent chelating agents, has been made to react with Zr and MoO4 ions to get metal complexes in methanol. The synthesis, spectral properties (UV-Vis, H...

This study was designed to evaluate the effect of rutin on hepatotoxicity induced by thioacetamide (TAA) in rats. Four groups of male Wistar rats consisting of six rats each were used: Group I: control group; Group II: rats receiving single injection of 300 mg kg-1 body weight of TAA intraperitoneally; Group III: rats administered rutin (10 mg kg-1 body weight) dissolved in saline orally for 2 ...

Rutin belongs to a class of plant secondary metabolites called flavonoids. Rutin is believed to be a vital nourishing supplement as it is able to make the capillaries stronger. But when administered orally it shows poor absorption because of less lipophilicity. To overcome this limitation, the present study was aimed to develop Rutinphospholipid complex in different ratio to improve the lipophi...

Most known osteoporosis medicines are effective for bone resorption, and so there is an increasing demand for medicines that stimulate bone formation. Watercress (N. officinale R. Br.) is widely used as a salad green and herbal remedy. This study analyzed a watercress extract using ultra-performance liquid chromatography/mass spectrometry, and identified a rutin as one of its major constituents...

Routine problem test evaluation rubric were used as data collection tools study. ...

Dietary supplements are widely used to manage stress and related consequences. However, the exact pathological mechanism and cellular cascades involved in the action of these supplements are not properly understood so far. Therefore, the present study has been designed to explore the neuroprotective mechanism of rutin against immobilization stress-induced anxiety-like behavioural and oxidative ...

The deactivation of triplet excited state riboflavin by polyphenols, e.g. rutin and catechin, was studied on the basis of density functional theory calculations. The results show that the H-atom transfer pathway is more feasible on thermodynamic grounds in comparison with the direct energy transfer or direct electron transfer pathways involved in the triplet excited state riboflavin deactivatio...

The structural properties of oil-in-water (O/W) emulsions, as well as their oxidative stability upon storage at 50 °C, were studied. Eight different formulations were prepared, with the aim of studying the effect of three variables: the composition of the oil phase, the presence of the flavonoid rutin and the homogenization procedure on the structure and the oxidative stability. It was found th...

Flavonoids (quercetin, rutin) influence ATPase activity and actomyosin superprecipitation. Low concentrations (below 20 mumol/l) of flavonoids were found to cause conformational changes in the myosin structure accompanied by an increase in ATPase activity. At higher concentrations an inhibitory action of flavonoids on both ATPase activity and actomyosin superprecipitation occurred. Conformation...
