Extracts from Annona Muricata L. and Annona Reticulata L. (Annonaceae) Potently and Selectively Inhibit Plasmodium Falciparum
The aim of this work was to screen extracts from Annona muricata and Annona reticulata in vitro against Plasmodium falciparum. Crude ethanolic extracts, methylene chloride fractions, aqueous fractions, subfractions and isolated compounds (stigmasterol-3-O-β-d-glucopyranoside, lichexanthone, gallic acid and β-sitosterol-3-O-β-d-glucopyranoside) were tested for cytotoxicity on erythrocytes and Hu...
متن کاملRespiration during Postharvest Development of Soursop Fruit, Annona muricata L.
Fruit of soursop, Annona muricata L., showed increased CO(2) production 2 days after harvest, preceding the respiratory increase that coincided with autocatalytic ethylene evolution and other ripening phenomena. Experiments to alter gas exchange patterns of postharvest fruit parts and tissue cylinders had little success.The respiratory quotient of tissue discs was near unity throughout developm...
متن کاملTotal Phenol Content and Antioxidant Activity of Bryum billardieri
Mosses contain active constituents that exhibit various biological activities. This study provides additional information on the potentials of mosses as natural sources of biologically active compounds that can be used as medicines. The antioxidant potential of Bryum billardieri Schwaegr. (Bryaceae) is herein studied by analyzing its total phenol content and its radical scavenging activity. Eth...
متن کاملComparative study of the total phenol content and antioxidant activity of some medicinal herbal extracts
Herbal medicines can be used as the potential sources of anti-oxidative compounds to help the treatment of diseases associated to oxidative stress. In this paper, the Ferric Reducing Antioxidant Power (FRAP) activity of four Lamiaceae herbal extracts, which traditionally applied in oxidative stress related diseases, has been evaluated and total phenolics contents of these extracts determined by...
متن کاملAnticancer and antioxidant effects of selected Sri Lankan marine algae
For the investigation of bioactive components from Sri Lankan seaweeds, three species of red algae (Chondrophycus ceylanicus, Gelidiella acerosa, Gracilaria corticata), two species of green algae (Chaetomorpha crassa, Caulerpa racemosa) and one species of brown algae (Sargassum cassifolium) were evaluated. For the bioactivity evaluations, total phenol content (TPC), free radical scavenging acti...
