to explore the possibility of using graphene based biosensor, adsorption of hydrogen peroxide on graphene has been investigated using density functional theory. the electronic properties of defect free and defective graphene in the presence of different number of hydrogen peroxide have been studied. the graphene with the most stable configuration defect named as sw defect is considered. the hig...

The genus Helichrysum (Asteraceae) is comprised of approximately 500-600 species and used for the treatment of a variety of pathological conditions in folk medicine in many countries. In this study, antioxidant activities of aerial parts of H. pseudoplicatum were investigated employing various in vitro assay systems, i.e. 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH)  and nitric oxide radical scave...

Objectives: Sweet peppers Capsicum annuum L. (C. annuum) are an excellent source of vitamins A and C as well as phenolic compounds, which are important antioxidant components that may reduce the risk of diseases. The objective of this study was to evaluate their antioxidant activity under various temperatures. Materials and Methods: To compare the antioxidant activity in various temperatures (2...

Phenolic compounds have been shown to exhibit bioactive properties, and in particular antioxidant effects. A phenolic-rich fraction has been isolated from the aqueous by-product obtained during the milling of oil palm fruits. The objectives of the study were to determine the phenolic content of the crude and ethanolic extracts of oil palm fruits and to evaluate the antioxidant properties of the...

OBJECTIVE To examine the antioxidant activity and total phenolic content of different solvent fractions of Pedalium murex (P. murex) Linn fruits (Family: Pedaliaceae) as well as the correlation between the total antioxidant capacity and total phenolic content. METHODS In the present study, the antioxidant activities of P. murex were evaluated using six in-vitro assays, namely total antioxidan...

In this study investigated the effect of putrescine sprayed (0.5 & 1mM) on Chamomile (Matricaria chamomilla L.) and the changed of Anthocyanin, Phenolic compounds, POX & CAT Antioxidative enzymes were examined. The results show that Putrescine treatments increased hydrogen peroxide in seedlings to compare control. Phenolic compound content under putrescine treatments are different. Phenolic com...

In this study, the antioxidant properties of 80 % ethanol extracts of 16 species of plants from Jeju Island in Korea were evaluated using various antioxidant assays, including the DPPH (1,1-Diphenyl-2-pricrylhydrazyl) radical scavenging, superoxide scavenging, xanthine oxidase inhibition and hydrogen peroxide scavenging activities. Among the 16 plant extracts tested, CN-13 showed strong antioxi...

drought is one of the important environmental stresses that reduce the crop growth. oxidative stress is a secondary stress due to drought and other abiotic stresses. in order to study the effect of exogenous application of hydrogen peroxide on drought tolerance of glob amaranth (gomphrena globosa l.), an experiment was conducted in greenhouse conditions. this study was designed as factorial bas...
