MARINOVA, G. and V. BATCHVAROV, 2011. Evaluation of the methods for determination of the free radical scavenging activity by DPPH. Bulg. J. Agric. Sci., 17: 11-24 The survey of the methods for determination of free radical scavenging activity by DPPH has been done. The differences between methods conditions and their evaluation are presented. It was determined the effect of methods conditions b...

Hemp protein hydrolysates with various yields of trichloroacetic acid (TCA)-soluble peptides (Ysp) and surface hydrophobicity (Ho) were obtained by Neutrase ® hydrolysis from hemp protein isolate (HPI). The peptide profiles, amino acid composition and antioxidant activities (DPPH radical scavenging ability, reducing power and Fe chelating ability) of the hydrolysates, obtained at 60–240 min, we...

Semen Oroxyli, derived from the seed of Oroxylum indicum L., is a commonly used Traditional Chinese Medicine with beneficial effects against several respiratory disorders. Antioxidative flavonoids may be partly responsible for its medicinal functions. The aim of this study was to rapidly determine the antioxidants in Semen Oroxyli based on a HPLC-DPPH method. Four major flavonoids, baicalein-7-...

Radical scavenging and antioxidant activities of nine flavonoids previously isolated from the aerial parts of Chenopodium bonus-henricus L. were established using DPPH and ABTS free radicals as well as inhibition of lipid peroxidation in a linoleic acid system by the ferric thiocyanate method. Patuletin glycosides, compounds 1, 2 and 7 showed the highest DPPH (85.78%, 85.59%, 86.07%) and ABTS a...

Curcuma angustifolia also known as ‘haledo’ is commonly found in Sikkim and has many medicinal uses and has been used traditionally since ancient ages. Its rhizome is aromatic and the solvent extract of the rhizome has free radical scavenging activity which was carried out in this study by 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl DPPH. Hot methanol extract and cold methanol extract of the dried powder of ...

UNLABELLED BACKGROUND Sonchus arvensis is used in the treatment of various human aliments as a traditional medicine in Pakistan. In the study its various fractions are characterized for scavenging of diverse free radicals. RESULTS Results of the present study revealed that various fractions of Sonchus arvensis significantly scavenged the free radicals (DPPH·, ABTS·+, ·OH, superoxide), howe...
