Antioxidant activities of ethanolic extracts of Ardisia japonica Blume., Ageartum conyzoides Linn., and Cocculus hirsutus Linn Diels. leaves was determined qualitatively and quantitatively in this research. 1, 1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) free radical solution was used to investigate free radical scavenging activity of these leaves extracts. Ascorbic acid (Vitamin C) was used as the stand...

in the present study the volatile organic compounds of e. azerbaijanica rech.f. were identified. phytochemical assessment of meoh extract of aerial parts of this plant was also performed and its free radical scavenging properties was evaluated. the essential oil of the air-dried aerial parts was obtained by hydro-distillation using a clevenger type apparatus. the oil was then analyzed by gas ch...

The present study reports the antioxidant and membrane protective activities of Calotropis procera aqueous root extract using several in vitro assays along with the determination of phenolic as well as flavonoid contents. Total phenol and flavonoid contents in extract were 15.67 ± 1.52 mg propyl gallate equivalent/g and 1.62 ± 0.05 mg quercetin equivalent/g, respectively. UV-visual spectroscopi...

The aim of this study was to determine the in vitro antioxidant activity, free radical scavenging property and the beneficial effects of extracts of various parts of Syzygium guineense in reducing oxidative stress damage in the liver. The effects of extracts on free radicals were determined on radicals DPPH, ABTS, NO and OH followed by the antioxidant properties using Ferric Reducing Antioxidan...

Aims: To evaluate the anti-inflammatory and antioxidant activity of methanolic root extract of onosma hispidum (Ratanjot) by in-vitro methods. Methods: DPPH free radical and ABTS radical scavenging activity estimation with total phenolic and flavonoid content methods were used to evaluate antioxidant activity while egg albumin denaturation method and HRBC membrane stabilization methods were use...

Background & Aim:Oxidative stresses caused by free radicals are known to promote many diseases such as inflammation and cancer; therefore, any plant product that can inhibit free radical production can play an important role in preventing diseases. We aimed to compare the fracture rate and the scavenging activity of free radicals, and the antioxidant composition of rol...

Schisandra propinqua (Wall.) Baill.(Schisandraceae) is widely used as a Chinese folk medicine. In this study, activity-guided fractionation of the ethanol extract from the stem of Schisandra propinqua led to the isolation of four extracts. Subsequently, a neolignan 4,4-di(4-hydroxy-3-methoxyphenly)-2,3-dimethylbutanol was isolated from the EtOAc part of the stem of Schisandra propinqua, the fre...

this study was designed to examine the in vitro antioxidant activities and total phenolic contents of the methanolic extracts from male inflorescence of salix aegyptiaca l. grown in iran. the methanolic extract (me) and its three fractions including water (wf), butanol (bf) and chloroform (cf) were prepared and then their antioxidant activities, as well as total phenolic contents, were evaluate...

the methanol extracts of leaves of bauhinia acuminata (mesf) and their different fractions obtained from modified kupchan partitioning method i.e. methanol, pet ether, carbon tetrachloride, chloroform, and aqueous soluble fractions were subjected to biological screening such as total phenolic content and antioxidant activity screening.the amount of total phenolic content differed in different e...
