The medicinal plant Barleria gibsoni Dalz, family Apocynaceae, is a well-known traditional used in various system of medicines. It spread all over India. present study provides antioxidant capacity aqueous and ethanolic root extracts 2,2'-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH), nitrous oxide hydrogen peroxide scavenger assays were used.

Isolated five known iridoids glycosides (Scrophuloside A, Harpagoside B, 5-hydroxyloganin, 8-O-acetylharpagide and 6-O-methyl,1-glucopyranosyl catalpol ),one phenyl ethanoid glycoside (Verbascoside) and a phenyl ethanol amine (2-(4-Chlorobenzyl amino) ethanol ) compound from the methanolic extract of aerial parts of Scrophularia oxysepala using by high performance liquid chromatography based on...

Antioxidant and antimicrobial potentials of extracts obtained from four wild mushrooms, Termitomyces clypeatus (TCE), Termitomyces robustus (TRE), Lentinus subnudus (LSE) and Lenzites species (LZE) collected in Nigeria were investigated. LSE and LZE displayed good scavenging activity against 2, 2-Diphenyl-1-Picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) and ferrous ion radicals at concentration of 2 mg/mL. However, TRE...

The aim of this research was to extract phenolic compounds from defatted Roselle (Hibiscus sabdariffa L.) seed and assess their antioxidant potential. Water, ethanol (30%), methanol (30%) and acetone (30%) were used as solvent for extraction. The proximate composition, total phenolic content and extraction yield were analyzed. Antioxidant efficacies of Roselle seed extract were tested by using ...

Background The search for new natural or synthetic products with antioxidant activity is commonly based on methods that involve reduction of either 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) or 2-2-azino-bis(3-ethylbenzothiazoline-6-sulphonic acid) (ABTS). However, the reported values of the effective concentrations are highly variable, even in controls. Herein, we optimize and validate both meth-ods...

The white button mushroom, Agaricus bisporus, is the most commonly grown mushroom in Iran; however, there is a significant shortage of research on its antioxidant activity and other medicinal properties. The aim of this study was to evaluate antioxidant capacity of the methanolic extracts from four cultivated strains and four Internal Transcribed Spacer (ITS)-identified, Iranian wild isolates o...

The 2,2'-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH(•)) method is commonly applied for the estimation of antioxidant activity of single compounds and plant extracts. In this method, the amount of disappeared DPPH(•) in the examined system, determined spectrophotometrically, is a measure of the antioxidative (hydrogen-donating) activity of compounds. The present paper discusses the influence of buffer comp...

The aim of the current study is to determine total flavonoids, phenolics and antioxidant activities methanol extracts from aerial parts four endemic Haplophyllum species Türkiye (H. myrtifolium, H. vulcanicum, pumiliforme, sahinii). There are two populations collected different regions belonging myrtifolium pumiliforme. Antioxidant were measured by radical scavenging activity such as 2, 2′-azin...

N-(2-Acetyl-4-bromophenyl)-4-methylbenzenesulfonamide (2) was transformed into 5-(4-methoxymethylstyryl)-2-(p-tolylsulfonamido)acetophenone (3a) and 5-(4- trifluoromethylstyryl)-2-(p-tolylsulfonamido)acetophenone (3b). Their structures were determined using a combination of NMR (1H & 13C) mass spectroscopic as well single crystal X-ray diffraction techniques. These compounds the correspondi...
