متن کاملInhibitory Effects of Swietenia Mahagoni Seeds Extract on Α-Glucosidase and Α-amylase
This study analyzed the inhibition activity of Swietenia mahagoni seeds extract on α-glucosidase and α-amylase enzymes inhibition assays. Swietenia mahagoni seeds were extracted by using Supercritical Carbon Dioxide (SC-CO2) extraction at pressures of 20- 30 MPa and temperatures of 40- 60°C. The oil yields obtained were analyzed with α- glucosidase and α- amylase enzymes inhibition assays. A...
متن کاملAntioxidant and α-glucosidase inhibitory activities of the leaf and stem of selected traditional medicinal plants
The study was aimed to determine the antioxidant and α-glucosidase inhibition activities of the stem and leaf of five different traditional medicinal plants. The studied plants exhibited varied antioxidant and α-glucosidase inhibition activities. The antioxidant activities of the plants were determined through their free radical scavenging capabilities using DPPH assay. The most potent antioxid...
