The present study was conducted to determine the antioxidant and antifungal effects ofmethanol extract from aerial part of Verbascum speciosum. The total phenolic andflavonoid content and the antioxidant activity of the plant extract were determined byusing the Folin-Ciocalteau and the 2, 2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) free radicalscavenging assays. The total phenols and flavonoid content o...

haptoglobin (hp) is a mammalian serum glycoprotein showing a genetic polymorphism with three types, 1-1, 2-2 and 1-2. hp appears to conserve the recycling of heme-iron by forming an essentially irreversible but non-covalent complex with hemoglobin which is released into the plasma by erythrocyte lysis. as an important consequence, haptoglobin-hemoglobin complex (hp-hb) shows considerable antiox...

The aim of this study was to screen herbal formulation containing Tinosporia cordifolia, Moringa oleifera and Allium sativum display potent antioxidant activity in vitro order find possible sources for future novel antioxidants food pharmaceutical formulations. Data from present results revealed that act as an agent due its free radical scavenging cytoprotective activity.

In recent years, there has been considerable interest in bioactive peptides derived from food proteins, which might benefit human health. Pitaya and jiotilla are fruits with demonstrated biological functions its stem, peel, pulp. However, no studies have conducted to evaluate the peptides. The aim of this study was determine biofunctional properties (antioxidant, antihypertensive, antidiabetic ...

Antioxidant activities of wampee peel extracts using five different solvents (ethanol, hexane, ethyl acetate, butanol and water) were determined by using in-vitro antioxidant models including total antioxidant capability, 1,1-diphenyl-2-picryl hydrazyl (DPPH) radical scavenging activity, reducing power, and superoxide scavenging activity. Ethyl acetate fraction (EAF) exhibited the highest antio...

Bilberry [Vaccinium myrtillus Linn. (Ericaceae)] fruit (VMF) has been traditionally used for treatment of bladder stones, biliary disorders, scurvy, coughs, and lung tuberculosis. VMF may have some pharmaceutical properties owing to these uses, but in vivo and in vitro studies are limited for clarification of medicinal activity and its antidiabetic and antioxidant properties are not investigate...

Aims: To evaluate the anti-inflammatory and antioxidant activity of methanolic root extract of onosma hispidum (Ratanjot) by in-vitro methods. Methods: DPPH free radical and ABTS radical scavenging activity estimation with total phenolic and flavonoid content methods were used to evaluate antioxidant activity while egg albumin denaturation method and HRBC membrane stabilization methods were use...

background: in recent years, plants natural products have gained considerable attention as natural preservers for use in different industries. due to their free radical scavenging activities, phenolic compounds can prevent a wide range of diseases such as cancers and cardiovascular and neurodegenerative diseases. for a long time, different ferulago species have been in use as medicinal plants w...

the in vitro antioxidant and antimicrobial activities of the essential oil and methanolic extract of achillea sieheana staf. (asteraceae) were investigated in this study. the chemical composition of the essential oil isolated by hydro-distillation from the aerial parts of a. sieheana was analyzed by gc–ms. camphor (43.36%), artemisia ketone (25.95%), 1.8-cineole (6.29%) and camphene (4.77%) wer...

The chemical composition and antioxidant activity of different extracts (diethyl ether, ethyl acetate and n-butanol) obtained from Teucrium species (T. chamaedrys, T. montanum, T. polium) were investigated in this work. Phytochemical screening of the plant extracts proved the presence of flavonoids luteolin, apigenin and/or diosmetin. The chemical composition of extracts was evaluated by HPLC a...
