background and objectives: dairy companies always try to increase the quantity and quality of milk production. according to the positive impact of different plants on milk production of cattle, this study was carried out to standardize a galactogogue herbal mixture based on its total phenol and flavonol contents and antioxidant activity.  methods: a mixture of galega officinalis l. and nigella ...

in this study, we have examined the antioxidant activity and total phenolic content of different extracts (including water, methanol, water : methanol and acetone) of nerium oleander l. grown in the north of iran by employing various in-vitro assay, i.e. dpph free radical scavenging, reducing power and total antioxidant capacity through the mo (vi) reduction. the extracts showed different level...

in the present study, we have reported the total phenolic content, total flavonoid content, antioxidant and antimicrobial activity of aerial parts of salvia leriifolia extracts and fractions. methanolic, n-hexane, chloroform, and ethyl acetate extracts were screened to analysis their antioxidant activities by four complementary test systems, namely dpph free radical scavenging activity (rsa), t...

sour cherry and orange juice were successfully cryoconcentrated. novel clarification (electro-flotation and ultra-filtration) improved cryconcentration efficiency. ef-uf clarified sour cherry and orange juices were cryoconcentrated in three stages up to 34.52±0.14, 44.42±0.19, 52.44±0.13 and 28.43±0.16, 40.51±0.15, and 45.42±0.19° brix at -10˚c respectively. duncan's multiple range test was use...

background: satureja bachtiarica bunge, an endemic species with relatively wide distribution, is traditionally used as a medicinal and spice plant in iran. objective: essential oils composition, antioxidant activities and phenolics content of wild and cultivated s. bachtiarica of yazd origin were determined in this study. methods: hydrodistilled essential oils were analyzed by gc-fid and gc-ms....

the aim of the study was to evaluate the antioxidant and free radical scavenging properties and to determine the phenolic content of the ethanol extract from five mentha species [m. longifolia (l.) huds., m. piperita l., m. pulegium l., m. rotundifolia (l.) huds., and m. spicata l.]. the antioxidant activities of the extracts were investigated with two different methods, 2,2’-diphenyl-1-picrylh...

the objective of this research was to study the biological activities of various extracts and the chemical composition of the essential oil trigonella monantha c. a. mey. subsp. monantha by gas chromatography (gc) and gas chromatography-mass spectroscopy (gc-ms), from the compounds derived from the aerial parts. the overall results of t. monantha tests allow us to conclude various extracts [hex...

strawberry (fragaria ananassa duch.) is a good source of natural antioxidants. fruits from eight strawberry (fragaria ananassa duch.) cultivars (‘kurdistan’, ‘merck’, ‘camarosa’, ‘paros’, ‘queen elisa’, ‘ventana’, ‘selva’ and ‘pajaro’) were harvested at ripen stage and analyzed for total phenolic content, total anthocyanin content, vitamin c, total soluble solid and total antioxidant activity. ...

background: marine algae, especially brown species, produce a wide range of metabolites with various biological activities. objective: since marine algae are rich source of dietary fibers, minerals, proteins, vitamins and phenolic components with antioxidant effect, in addition to the rule of oxidative stress in pathogenesis of chronic diseases, the aim of this study was to investigate possible...
