Ethanolic extract of leaves of Elaeocarpus ganitrus was analyzed for their total antioxidant capacity, reducing power, metal chelating, ABTS+ (2, 2-azinobis-(3-ethylbenzothiazoline-6-sulphonate) radical scavenging and hydroxyl radical scavenging activities. The extract at 500 ?g/ml showed maximum Iron chelating activity (76.70%) followed by the scavenging of the ABTS+ radical (55.77%) at the sa...

The study was aimed at evaluating the antioxidant activity of hydroalcoholic solution extracts of Urtica dioica L. (UD), Malva neglecta Wallr. (MN) plants and their mixture. In this study, flower (UDF), root (UDR), seed (UDS) and leaf (UDL) parts of UD and flower (MNF) and leaf (MNL) parts of MN were used. The antioxidant properties of hydroalcoholic extracts and their mixture were evaluated us...

objective:the present study was designed to evaluate the antioxidant, analgesic, and anti-inflammatory activities ofthe methanolic extract of piper betle leaves (mpbl). materials and methods: mpbl was evaluated for anti-inflammatory activity using carrageenan-induced hind paw edema model. analgesic activity of mpbl was evaluated by hot plate, writhing, and formalin tests. total phenolic and fla...
