the subject handled in this study is the determination of antioxidant activities of extracts obtained from the urginea maritima (l.) baker plant’s leaves and tubers. extractions which were obtained using various solvents as methanol, ethanol, acetone and benzine. the antioxidant activity of the extracts was determined using β-karotene-linoleic acid system. moreover, the free radical scavenging ...

research works proposed that radical scavenging activity of flavonoids is due to ring b, andthe remaining part of the molecule can be disregarded. thus the objective of this work is toobserve whether hydroxytoluenes account the radical scavenging activity of flavonoid and toestablish structural requirements for their activity (as they showed appreciable activity) andelucidate a comprehensive me...

the composition of essential oil isolated from achillea eriophora, achillea millefolium, achillea biebersteinii and achillea tenuifolia growing wild in the south west of iran, was analyzed.  a. eriophora, a. millefolium and a. tenuifolia essential oils were characterized by sabinene, 1, 8-cineole, terpinene-4-ol, ά –bisabolol, p-cymene, β-pinene and α-pinene. the a. biebersteinii essential oil ...

background: brucella species can cause infection in a wide range of animals and human beings. oxidative events against brucella infection are not well elucidated. it is possible that brucellosis may be related to increased free radical production and antioxidant depletion. thus, the aim of this study was to determine the total antioxidant capacity (tac) before and after treatment of patients wi...
