BACKGROUND Ulva genus, an edible seaweed, and an important food source in many south-east Asian countries is also recognized by its synonymous name as Enteromorpha. OBJECTIVES This study was carried out to evaluate antioxidant activity, contents of total phenolics, and flavonoids of methanolic extracts of edible green seaweeds including Ulva clathrata (Roth) C. Agardh and three samples of Ulv...

The present study was designed to explore the flavonoid contents and the radical scavenging activities of 50% ethanol extracts of leaves, stems, rachis and roots of Dryopteris erythrosora. The total flavonoid contents in various parts were determined as: stems > roots > rachis > leaves. All extracts from different parts of D. erythrosora showed strong bioactivities. The DPPH free radical scaven...

Extracts from raw materials from different plant parts, tissue-cultured plants, and callus cultures of Oroxylum indicum were analyzed for in vitro antioxidant activities determined by DPPH radical scavenging assay and evaluated for phytochemical profiles by TLC and LC-MS methods. The results were analyzed by principal component analysis (PCA) to evaluate the similarity. Stalk, pedicel, flower, ...

The leaves, barks, flowers, fruits and seeds of Calophyllum inophyllum are widely used in traditional practices. Here in the present study, we aimed to evaluate in vitro antioxidant potential of leaf aqueous and methanolic extracts of C. inophyllum in relation to total phenol and flavonoid contents. DPPH (1,1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl) free radical scavenging and ferric (Fe) reducing power was ...

In the present study, the proximate composition, sugar, minerals, total phenolic and flavonoid compounds, and amino acids in Calystegia japonica (C. japonica) were measured to determine if it can be used as a nutritional and functional material for the development of valuable foods. The mean crude protein, fat, and ash contents of the leaves were 5.75, 2.46, and 7.77%, respectively. The soluble...

conclusions p. spinosa ethanol extract can be used as a mouthwash for treatment of the oral infections. more clinical and toxicological studies are required for providing its efficacy. results p. spinosa ethanol extract with higher-level phenolic and flavonoid contents showed the highest antioxidant and antimicrobial effects, in comparison with the other extracts. bacillus sp. and streptococcus...

Mahaleb (Prunus mahaleb L.) is an important rootstock for P. avium and P. cerasus cultivars. The present study has compared the phenolic contents and antioxidant activity of the methanolic extracts of the barks, leaves and fruits of ten selected mahaleb genotypes. The total phenolic content (5.11-131.77 mg GA g-1) in barks and the total flavonoid (54.06-180.6 mg QE g-1) and proanthocyanidin (8....

antioxidant activity of peucedanum pastinacifolium boiss. & hausskn aerial part hydroalcoholic extract (hae) and polyphenolic extract (ppe) as well as their total phenolic and flavonoid contents were studied. phenolic and flavonoid contents were respectively estimated as gallic acid and quercetin equivalents. the in vitro antioxidant activity of two extracts of p. pastinacifolium were evaluated...
