In present study, we investigated the nutraceutical potential of seed coat, dehulled raw dal, cooked dal, whole seed of dark coloured desi chickpea and light coloured kabuli chickpea. Locally grown varieties of Haryana (India) named HC-1 and KC-1 were under investigation. Total phenolic content, o-dihydric phenols, hydrophilic and hydrophobic phenols, flavonoid contents were determined in metha...

Commiphora molmol oleoresin (Family Burseraceae) is traditionally used for treatment of many ailments such as ulcers, abscesses and wounds. The aim of this study was to evaluate the antimicrobial and antioxidant activities of C. molmol extracts in vitro (essential oils and ethanol extract). The antimicrobial activities of extracts were evaluated by disc diffusion and micro-broth dilution assays...

In the present study, antioxidant potential of the different extract of the whole plant of Aerva tomentosa Forsk. was evaluated by using 2, 2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) scavenging assay and total phenolic contents was analyzed using the Folin-Ciocalteu reagent method. The methanol extract showed significant activity in antioxidant assay compared to other successive extracts such as peteth...

Antioxidant activities of three selected Micromeria species growing in Croatia (M. croatica, M. juliana and M. thymifolia) were evaluated using five different antioxidant assays, in comparison with plant polyphenolic constituents and reference antioxidants. All studied ethanolic extracts exhibited considerable activity to scavenge DPPH and hydroxyl free radicals, reducing power, iron chelating ...

the present study investigates the antioxidant, anticancer, anticholinesterase, anti-genotoxic activities and phenolic contents of flower, fruit and seed methanol extracts of hypericum retusum aucher. the amounts of protocatechuic acid, catechin, caffeic acid and syringic acid in methanol extracts were determined by hplc. total phenolic content of h. retusum seed extract was found more than fru...

in this research the effect of conventional and ohmic pasteurization and storage time at different temperatures on some bioactive components of aloe vera gel juice was investigated. aloe vera gel juice was pasteurized conventionally and ohmically at 90 ºc for 1 min. the effect of pasteurization on vitamin c, total phenolic content  and juice color was evaluated. the samples pasteurized conventi...
