objectives: potato (solanum tuberosum l.), as a whole food, contains high levels of vitamins and important antioxidants including phenolic acids, carotenoids and flavonoids. the objective of this study was to determine the total phenolic content and antioxidant activities of three common potatoes (solanum tuberosum) cultivars in iran i.e., savalan, agria and sante. materials and methods: phenol...

the antibacterial and antioxidant activities of methanol and acetone extracts of three marine algae, including hypnea hamulosa, gracilaria corticata and enteromorpha intestinalis wereinvestigated.antioxidant activities were determined by means of total antioxidant capacity, total phenolic compounds, dpph radical scavenging activity and ferric reducing antioxidant power. antibacterial activity w...

plants are almost reach sources of phenolic compounds such as flavonoids which are the most importantnatural antioxidants. antioxidant compounds are essential for protecting human body against oxidativestress. however use elicitors could increase the antioxidant activity of plant. the purpose of this studywas to evaluate the effects of chitosan on the content of phenolic and flavonoid compounds...

background & aim:extracts of roselle calyx,   possess compounds which could be considered as a great source of natural antioxidants.   in this project, antioxidant activities, phenolic compounds content and their   correlation analysis on calices of roselle (hibiscus sabdariffa) was investigated.  experimental: total polyphenolic compound, flavonoids and anthocyanins were determined spectrophot...

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: artemisia dracunculus l. belongs to the anthemideae tribe of asteraceae family. this plant has been used in traditional folk medicine. also, it's anti-bacterial, anti-fungal, antioxidant, anti-inflammatory and hepatoprotective activity has been proved. objective: the purpose of this study was to evaluate the antioxidant activity of leaves and inflorescence of a. dracunculus and...

The present study aimed at investigating the influence of several production factors, conservation conditions, and extraction procedures on the phenolic compounds and antioxidant activity of blueberries from different cultivars. The experimental data was used to train artificial neural networks, using a feed-forward model, which gave information about the variables affecting the antioxidant...

background scrophularia striata (scrophulariaceae family) is an herbaceous plant that is traditionally used for treatment of microbial infections. objectives antimicrobial and antioxidant activity of different extracts (methanolic, ethanolic, aqueous and ethyl acetate) from s. striata aerial parts was evaluated. materials and methods the antimicrobial activity of different extracts from s. stri...

this study was designed to examine bioactive compounds of the thyme-enriched corn oil and to determine the antioxidant activity of its methanolic extract. volatile compounds composition was investigated by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (gc-ms), whereas phenolic compounds analysis was performed by reversed-phase high-performance liquid chromatography (rp-hplc). antioxidant activities of t...
