The aim of this investigation was to determine the content of total phenolics, antioxidant activity and cytotoxicity of methanol extracts from the aerial parts of 11 Korean medicinal salad plants. The highest total phenolic content of the methanol extracts was found in Aster scaber (17.1 mg 100 g(-1)), followed by Ixeris dentate (16.4 mg 100 g(-1)), Aster yomena (12.0 mg 100 g(-1)) and Sedum sa...

Phytochemicals profiling is important for the isolation of new and novel chemical substances. The current finding is directed to the detection of different classes of chemical constituents responsible for antioxidant properties of Euphorbia prostrate.The crude methanolic extract and various solvent isolated fractions of E. prostrate showed the presence of Alkaloids, Terpenoids, Saponins, Tannin...

Eugenol, isoeugenol, caffeic acid, ferulic acid, isoferulic acid, estragole, trans-anethole, and paeonol are components of a Chinese herbal medicine used as a painkiller and stomachic. We investigated the potential role of these compounds as antioxidants. We studied the DPPH (1,1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl) radical-scavenging effect of these molecules, together with some glycoside derivatives, t...

the plants of the genus salvia synthesize several types of secondary metabolites with antimicrobial, cytotoxic, and radical scavenging activities and are used in the folk medicine of different countries. eleven salvia species including s. aegyptiaca, s. aethiopis, s. atropatana, s. eremophila, s. hypoleuca, s. limbata, s. nemorosa, s. santolinifolia, s. sclarea, s. syriaca, and s. xanthocheila ...

the subject handled in this study is the determination of antioxidant activities of extracts obtained from the urginea maritima (l.) baker plant’s leaves and tubers. extractions which were obtained using various solvents as methanol, ethanol, acetone and benzine. the antioxidant activity of the extracts was determined using β-karotene-linoleic acid system. moreover, the free radical scavenging ...
