Objectives: Sweet peppers Capsicum annuum L. (C. annuum) are an excellent source of vitamins A and C as well as phenolic compounds, which are important antioxidant components that may reduce the risk of diseases. The objective of this study was to evaluate their antioxidant activity under various temperatures. Materials and Methods: To compare the antioxidant activity in various temperatures (2...

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 majority of the antioxidant and antidiabetic activities of fruits are anthocyanins, a group of polyphenolics that are responsible for the color of many fruits, vegetables and flowers. the harvesting time, storage conditions, maturity, extraction steps etc. are very important for the biological activities based on the alteration of chemical composition. the free radical scavenging and antidi...

background: artemisia dracunculus l. belongs to the anthemideae tribe of asteraceae family. this plant has been used in traditional folk medicine. also, it's anti-bacterial, anti-fungal, antioxidant, anti-inflammatory and hepatoprotective activity has been proved. objective: the purpose of this study was to evaluate the antioxidant activity of leaves and inflorescence of a. dracunculus and...

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 FolinCiocalteu Reagent (FCR); antioxidant activity of methanolic extracts were examined by DPPH (2,2diphenyl1picrylhydrazyl), FRAP (ferric reducing antioxidant power) an...

In vitro antioxidant activities of methanolic extract of tuberous root of coleous vettiveroides (jacob.) was investigated. The free radical scavenging activity to evaluate by DPPH (2,2 -diphenyl -1picryl hydrazyl) method, Nitric oxide method, Total antioxidant activity. DPPH radical scavenging activity of Methanolic extract and reference standard Rutin IC50 values was found to be 250 μg/ml and ...

The aim of the study was to evaluate the antioxidant and free radical scavenging properties and to determine the phenolic content of the ethanol extract from five Mentha species [M. longifolia (L.) Huds., M. piperita L., M. pulegium L., M. rotundifolia (L.) Huds., and M. spicata L.]. The antioxidant activities of the extracts were investigated with two different methods, 2,2’-diphenyl-1-picrylh...

the objective of this study was to produce fish protein hydrolysate (fph) with the most antioxidant activity, by enzymatic hydrolysis from (carassius carassius). the protein of crucian carp a low value fish was hydrolyzed by alcalase 2.4l and the optimal hydrolysis parameters of strongest antioxidant capacity of peptides were obtained using response surface methodology (rsm) by the central rota...

a number of 6-hydroxy-2-benzylidene-3-coumaranones were synthesized from condensation of 6-hydroxy-3-coumaranone with appropriate aldehydes and were evaluated for their antioxidant activities. the antioxidant activity was assessed using two methods, including, 1,1-biphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl (dpph) radical scavenging, and reducing power assays. some of the benzylidene coumaranones showed antioxid...
