background and objectives:hormozgan province is located in the south of iran, bordering waters of the persian gulf and oman sea. due to the antioxidant potential of plants which might be responsible for their medicinal properties, the antioxidant properties of four medicinal plants of the region were evaluated. methods: the antioxidant properties of chrozophora obliqua, daphne mucronata, salvia...

It has been investigated the in vitro antioxidant properties of ethanol extracts of the contained-allantoin plants in this study. Contained-allantoined plant samples Plantago lanceolata, Plantago major, Robinia pseudoacacia, Platanus orientalis and Aesculus hippocastanum were tested at different concentrations. The antioxidant activities of plant samples were analysed by 1,1- diphenyl-2-picrylh...

objective: boerhaavia elegans l. (nyctaginaceae) is a medicinal plant used for the treatment of kidney disorders, urinary tract disorders and blood purification in baluch tribe. the aim of present study is to evaluate the antioxidant propertyof b. elegans species for the first time. materials and methods: different parts (leaf, stem and fruit) of the plant were extracted by using various solven...

background & aim: strawberry (fragaria vesca l.) is a plant belonging to the rosaceae family with medicinal properties, including antioxidant activity. the present study aimed at investigating the antioxidant properties of strawberry. experimental method: to examine the antioxidant effect, fruit extracts at two phonological stages of growth (ripe and unripe strawberry) were prepared. in add...

A naturally occurring BHT was identified in the leaves of the halophyte plant Mesembryanthemum crystallinum. This phenol was extracted in this study by two methods at the different plant growth stages. One of the methods was better for BHT extraction; the concentration of this phenol is plant growth stage dependent. In this study, the floraison stage has the highest BHT concentration. The antio...

The effects of extracting solvents (dichloromethane, ethyl acetate and methanol) on the valerenic acid content and antioxidant activity of roots extracts of Valeriana jatamansi (cultivated and wild) were investigated. The tested plant extracts contained appreciable amounts of valerenic acid content which affects the antioxidant potential of plant extracts. Higher concentration of valerenic acid...

The antioxidant system in plants is a very important defensive mechanism to overcome stress conditions. We examined the expression profile of antioxidant enzymes superoxide dismutase (SOD), catalase (CAT) and ascorbate peroxidase (APX) using a bioinformatics approach. We explored secondary structure prediction and made detailed studies of signature pattern of antioxidant proteins in four plant ...

Allium affine is a member of Amaryllidaceae family, which grows wildly in some western regions of Iran. Limited information is available about the pharmacological activities of this plant. The present study aimed to evaluate the fibrinolytic and antioxidant effects of hydroalcoholic extract of A. affine aerial parts. The in vitro antioxidant properties of the extract were evaluated by total phe...

Aim of this paper is to find out the relationship between antioxidant activity of Abutilon indicum Linn and their phytochemical composition especially phenols and flavonols. Successive extractions were carried out for the Abutilon indicum plant with petroleum ether, chloroform, ethyl acetate, n-butanol, ethanol and water. All these extracts were evaluated for their antioxidant activities. Their...
