A liquid chromatography-diode array detection-electrospray ionization mass spectrometric (HPLC– PDA–ESI/MS/MS) method was used for separation and characterization of the phytoconstituents of the aqueous acetone leaf extract of Eucalyptus camaldulensis Dehnh (Myrtaceae). The employed method was optimized for separation, identification and quantification of fifty six compounds including ellagitan...

We synthesized a new chalcone (4,2'-dihydroxy-3methoxy-5-bromine chalcone; C) and structurally identified it via infrared spectrometry (IR), (1)H-NMR, mass spectrometry (MS) and element analysis (EA). C was confirmed to be highly potent in scavenging 2, 2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) and OH free radicals in vitro. Tests of anti-free radical activity in response to oxidative stress in mice r...

BACKGROUND The consequences of super-radical resection in patients with anaplastic thyroid carcinoma (ATC) have not been fully investigated. METHODS This retrospective study used the multicenter ATC Research Consortium of Japan database. Among 233 stage IVB patients, 23 underwent super-radical resection (group S). Outcomes for group S were compared to those for patients with restricted curati...

The objective of this study was to evaluate total phenolic content and antioxidant activity of leaf and different parts of fruit (hull, shell, and kernel) of Bene in Ilam province. Total phenolic content was determined with the Folin- Ciocalteu Reagent (FCR); antioxidant activity of methanolic extracts were examined by DPPH (2,2diphenyl- 1- picrylhydrazyl), FRAP (ferric reducing antioxidant pow...

the present study was carried out to evaluate the antioxidant and free radical scavenging activity of methanolic extract of ervatamia coronaria leaves (apocynaceae) in various systems. dpph radical, superoxide anion radical, nitric oxide radical and hydroxyl radical scavenging assays were carried out to evaluate the antioxidant potential of the extract. the antioxidant activity of methanolic ex...

The leaves of Cassia tora (local name – puvad) are usually consumed as food ingredient in traditional recepies by local people of Haryana. In the present study, the antioxidant potency of sequential organic (petroleum ether, benzene, chloroform, methanol) and aqueous leaf extracts of Cassia tora plant was investigated by using various established in vitro systems such as nitric oxide scavenging...

BACKGROUND Free radicals are implicated in several metabolic diseases and the antioxidant therapy has gained an utmost importance in the treatment. The medicinal properties of plants have been investigated and explored for their potent antioxidant activities to counteract metabolic disorders. In this study, the chemical composition and free radical scavenging potential of leaf gall extracts (et...

background: safety and efficacy of the synthetic antioxidants used in the food industry are frequently questioned because such antioxidants are unstable and highly volatile, therefore, interest in finding naturally occurring antioxidants that have the potential to protect human beings from damage induced by oxidative stress has intensified. objective: bioactivities of thymus daenensis and aneth...

in this paper the role of super paramagnetic iron oxide nanoparticles (spi) on platinum nanoclusters on activated carbon (pt/c) for electrocatalytic oxygen reduction reaction was considered. four composites of pt/c and super paramagnetic iron oxide nanoparticles were prepared with the same total composites weight and different loading of pt/c (1.2, 0.6, 0.4 and 0.3 mg ). the composite attached ...

The present study was carried out to evaluate the antimicrobial and antioxidant activities of methanol extract of Careya arborea (MECA) stem barks (Myrtaceae) in various in-vitro systems. Antimicrobial activities of MECA were carried out using disc diffusion methods with Gram positive and Gram negative bacteria and some fungal species. MECA showed broad-spectrum antimicrobial activity against a...
