INVESTIGATION OF ENZYME INHIBITORY PROPERTIES AND ANTIOXIDANT ACTIVITY OF CAPPARIS OVATA DESF. VAR. PALAESTINA ZOH. FLOWER AND FRUIT EXTRACTS

In this study, the inhibiting effect on α-amylase and α-glucosidase antioxidant activity of ethanol extracts from flower fruit Capparis ovata var. palaestina was investigated. The tested with DPPH●, ABTS●+ FRAP tests. According to results, highest were found in extract (IC50=271.72±0.41 µg/mL 142.07±0.85 µg/mL, respectively). Also, TPC (26.40±0.02mgGAE/gextract) TFC (8.33±0.30 mgCA /gextract) same showed DPPH● (%32). Although, values (at a concentration 1 mg/mL equivalent 262.69±2.27 mmol Fe2+) ABTS+● 0.5 0.18±0.01 µM Trolox) activity. conclusion, it is thought that these studies will be shed light future species.
