UNLABELLED Objectives : Leaves and flowers of Elaeagnus angustifolia contain phenolic and flavonoid compounds. These compounds have antioxidant properties that protect cells from oxidative damage. The aim of this study was to determine and analyze total phenolic and flavonoid content of leaves and flowers in two E. angustifolia variants using different solvents (ethanol and methanol). MATERIA...

A total of 20 new indole alkaloids comprising mainly oxidized derivatives of macroline- (including alstofonidine, a macroline indole incorporating a butyrolactone ring-F), pleiocarpamine-, and sarpagine-type alkaloids were isolated from the bark and leaf extracts of Alstonia angustifolia. The structures and relative configurations of these alkaloids were determined using NMR and MS analyses and...

the antinociceptive effect of elaeagnus angustifolia fruits was studied in mice. the antinociceptive effect of ethanolic and boiling water extracts was studied using two thermal stimuli, the hot-plate and tail-flick tests. the intraperitoneal and oral administration of the ethanolic extract of seed 0.75-7.00 g/kg), but not pericarp and medulla had significant antinociceptive activity in the hot...

chromium (cr) is one of the elements presents in crust of the earth. due to its toxicity, chromium is considered as water contaminant that may disturb metabolic activity. in the present study, adsorption of dissolved chromium (vi) onto elaeagnus angustifolia fruit charcoal, jujube fruit charcoal and the standard granular activated carbon (gac) has been investigated and compared. the effect of c...
