conclusions further investigations are needed about favorable composition of unsaturated fatty acids and flavonoid content of leaves of s. paradoxa. in addition, due to high phenolic content of the leaves, s. paradoxa is a promising source of natural antioxidants and may play good antidiabetic activity. results the amount of total phenolic compounds was higher in leaves than roots. besides, roo...

background scrophularia striata (scrophulariaceae family) is an herbaceous plant that is traditionally used for treatment of microbial infections. objectives antimicrobial and antioxidant activity of different extracts (methanolic, ethanolic, aqueous and ethyl acetate) from s. striata aerial parts was evaluated. materials and methods the antimicrobial activity of different extracts from s. stri...

conclusions p. spinosa ethanol extract can be used as a mouthwash for treatment of the oral infections. more clinical and toxicological studies are required for providing its efficacy. results p. spinosa ethanol extract with higher-level phenolic and flavonoid contents showed the highest antioxidant and antimicrobial effects, in comparison with the other extracts. bacillus sp. and streptococcus...

OBJECTIVES Potato (Solanum tuberosum L.), as a whole food, contains high levels of vitamins and important antioxidants including phenolic acids, carotenoids and flavonoids. The objective of this study was to determine the total phenolic content and antioxidant activities of three common potatoes (Solanum tuberosum) cultivars in Iran i.e., Savalan, Agria and Sante. MATERIALS AND METHODS Phenol...

a pot experiment was conducted to evaluate the extract biochemical variations among 25 spearmint population. the experiment was a randomized complete design (rcd) with 25 treatments (population) and three replications. for this purpose, three rhizomes with 5 cm length were selected and planted in each pot. all pots were kept out side. the plant samples of all treatments were harvested at full f...

nowadays, the use of natural antioxidants as alternative antioxidants is more acceptable than synthetic antioxidants mainly for negative effects such as carcinogenicity and toxicity. this has led to an increasing interest in the search for natural antioxidants. the objectives of this study were to measure total crude phenolic compounds and in sorghum grain as natural antioxidant sources, to det...

plants are almost reach sources of phenolic compounds such as flavonoids which are the most importantnatural antioxidants. antioxidant compounds are essential for protecting human body against oxidativestress. however use elicitors could increase the antioxidant activity of plant. the purpose of this studywas to evaluate the effects of chitosan on the content of phenolic and flavonoid compounds...

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...
