Dietary antioxidants could alleviate oxidative damage to cellular components via their ability to scavenge reactive oxygen species and other free radicals. In this regard wholegrain foods are recognized sources of dietary antioxidants and thus they are linked with health promotion and reduced risk of chronic diseases. In the current study high-lutein wholegrain bread, cookie and muffin products...

The influence of both acidic and basic hydrolysis on the yield, total phenolic content and antioxidative capacity of methanolic extract of germinated brown rice (GBR) was studied. Total phenolic content (TPC), total flavonoid content (TFC), 2,2'-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) radical scavenging, 2,2'-azino-bis(3-ethylbenzothiazoline-6-sulphonic acid (ABTS) radical cation scavenging, and ferri...

In vitro antioxidant activity of extracts lotus rhizome with different solvent by gradient extraction was determined. The yield and total phenolic content were 1,1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl hydrate (DPPH) radical scavenging assay β-carotene-linoleic acid conducted to assess the extracts. Results showed that butanol extract highest. order in as follows: water < petroleum ether chloroform ethyl a...

Saraca indica is an important medicinal plant and the compounds present in this are very much helpful preventing various diseases. Therefore, aim of study was to investigate antioxidant activity vitro investigation S. extract on lead-induced toxicity HepG2 HEK293 cell lines. The assay performed by two methods such as 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) 2,2′-azino-bis(3-ethylbenzothiazoline-6-s...

In this research work, a series of heterocyclic Schiff base compounds bearing arylsulfonyl ester moiety (2a-i) were designed, synthesized, characterized by spectral techniques such as 1D NMR (1H and 13C), 2D (COSY HMQC), FT-IR; then examined their antioxidant activity was using four different methods DPPH, ABTS, CUPRAC, ?-carotenelinoleic acid assays. According to the results obtained, it deter...

Content of total proanthocyanidins as well as total phenolics, flavonoids, antioxidant activities were evaluated for litchi (Litchi chinensis Sonn.) pulp of 32 cultivars. One cultivar, Hemaoli, showed the highest total proanthocyanidins and total phenolics, and DPPH or ABTS radical scavenging activities. ESI-MS and NMR analysis of the Hemaoli pulp crude extracts (HPCE) showed that procyandins c...

The present study was envisaged to investigate in-vitro antimicrobial and antioxidant efficacy of lemongrass, cinnamon and clove essential oils for their potential application in meat products. Antimicrobial potential was measured by using zone inhibition assay and Minimum Inhibitory Concentration (MIC) against foodborne pathogens including Gram positive and Gram negative whereas, antioxidant a...

Human have been constantly using plants and plant products to overcome many diseases. The antioxidant property of the plant sources is studied to obtain an efficacious drug against cancer. The objectives of the present study is to evaluate the antioxidant and cytotoxic activity of the Tecoma stans extracts against lung cancer cell line in comparison with vincristine drug. The antioxidant activi...
