Introduction: Buckwheat (Fagopyrum esculentum) and wild thyme (Thymus serpyllum) leaves and flowers were used to develop thymo-rutin green tea. The process involved cultivation of buckwheat collection of flowers and leaves after flowering and collection of wild thymus leaves and flowers. Materials and Methods: The leaves and flowers washed and pass through steam to fix color and kept in solar h...

The aim of this work is to study the effect of the flavonoids rutin and quercetin on hepatic monooxygenase activities in experimental influenza virus infection (EIVI). EIVI causes oxidative stress in the whole organism. This is confirmed by the rapidly increased concentrations of thiobarbituric reactive substances in influenza-infected mice: lungs - 290%; blood plasma - more than 320%; liver - ...

In vitro study revealed that pancreatic lipase inhibitory activity of C. asiatica extract was significantly higher than rutin but lower than orlistat, an anti-obesity drug. alpha-Amylase inhibitory activities of C. asiatica extract and rutin were significantly lower than acarbose, an anti-diabetic drug. Inhibition of alpha-glucosidase activity by C. asiatica extract, rutin, and acarbose was not...

Graphene (G) was dispersed into 0.5% chitosan (Chit) solution, then the composite films were coated on glassy carbon electrode (GCE), the electrochemical behavior of rutin on a Chit/G modified GCE was investigated and the electrochemical parameters of rutin were calculated. Rutin effectively accumulated on the Chit/G/GCE and caused a pair of redox peaks at around 408 mV and 482 mV (vs. SCE) in ...

The antibacterial activities of flavoneids vvere found by the paper disk method to be enhanced by combini"g or mixi'ng them. The combinEtions of quercetin and quercitrin, quercetin and mori", and quercetin and rutin were much more actiye than either flayonoid alone. Altheugh rutin did not show activity in itse}f, the antibacterial activities of quercetin and morin were enhanced in the presence ...

Background and Objective. High-cholesterol diet (HCD) intends to increase the oxidative stress in liver tissues inducing hepatotoxicity. Rutin is a natural flavonoid (vitamin p) which is known to have antioxidative properties. The aim of the present study was to investigate the potential effects of Rutin on hypercholesterolemia-induced hepatotoxicity in rats. Materials and Methods. Male Wistar ...

The story of rutin begins in 1842, when it was first prepared by a pharmacist-chemist of Nuremberg, Germany, named August Weiss, who obtained it from garden rue, Ruta graveolens. As time went on, chemists found rutin in a number of plants. Rutin is a yellow, crystalline powder with the formula C^iKnO^^/dK^O. It is only slightly soluble in water, more soluble in alcohol, acetone, and alkaline so...

Rutin is the bioactive flavanoid isolated from the straw part of Triticum aestivum and possess various pharmacological applications. The aim of this study is to evaluate the chemopreventive potential of rutin in an experimental skin carcinogenesis mice model system. Skin tumor was induced by topical application of 7,12-dimethyl benz(a) anthracene (DMBA) and promoted by croton oil in Swiss albin...

AIMS To further investigate the antineuroblastoma effect of rutin which is a type of flavonoid. METHODS The antiproliferation of rutin in human neuroblastoma cells LAN-5 were detected by 3-(4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyltetrazolium bromide (MTT) assay. Chemotaxis of LAN-5 cells was assessed using transwell migration chambers and scratch wound migration assay. The cell cycle arrest and...

BACKGROUND In recent years, flavonoids have been revealed to be helpful in the treatment of many diseases. Rutin (3,3',4',5,7-pentahydroxyflavone-3-rhamnoglucoside) is an important flavonoid that is consumed in the daily diet. It is also known as vitamin P and quercetin-3-O-rutinoside. In addition, it is found in many food items, vegetables, and beverages. The cytoprotective effects of rutin, i...
