treatment of diseases with natural remedies is gaining popularity because of its fewer side effects.   a systemic and scientific investigation of aqueous extract of euphorbia tirucalli for its antioxidant and hepatoprotective potential against carbon-tetrachloride-induced hepatic damage in rats was carried out . antioxidant property was assessed by using reducing property, superoxide anion scav...

background: medicinal plants with biologically active components such as antioxidant and antidiabetic are useful sources of novel therapeutics. in iran, traditionally believed that the aqueous extract of berberry fruit (berberis integerima f.) improved health, especially in people with diabetes. objective: in this study, in vitro phytochemical and antioxidant activities of b. integerrima and b....

the antioxidant activity and phytoconstituents of the hydromethanolic extract of litchi chinensis (helc) fruit was explored in the present study. the antioxidant potential of extract has been evaluated using several antioxidant models and results were compared to standards. fruit extract showed effective reducing power and free radical scavenging activity in a dose-dependent manner. in case of ...

This paper reviews the potential role of honey as a therapeutic antioxidant to reduce oxidative stress and improve cognitive ageing. All articles indexed to PubMed Central (PMC) were searched using the following key words: honey, antioxidant, memory and ageing. Honey is a natural insect-derived product with therapeutic, medicinal and nutritional values. Antioxidant properties of honey quench bi...

This data article is related to the research article entitled, "Antioxidant potential in non-extractable fraction of dried persimmon (Diospyros kaki Thunb.)" (Matsumura et al., 2016) [1]. We investigated antioxidant activities of the non-extractable fraction of dried persimmon fruits in vitro and in vivo. We evaluated both extracted fraction and non-extractable fraction, and reported that non-e...

The demand for functional foods and drinks with health benefit is on the increase. The synergistic effect from mixing two or more of such drinks cannot be overemphasized. This study was carried out to formulate and investigate the effects of blends of two or more of pineapple, orange juices, carrot, and Hibiscus sabdariffa extracts (HSE) on the antioxidant properties of the juice formulations i...

lipid oxidation has adverse effect on food deterioration and human health. the antioxidant activity of fennel seed extracts (fse) was evaluated by synthetic antioxidant. its oxidative stability was compared in olive oils in concentrations of bha (75 ppm), bht(75 ppm) and  1:1 bha to bht ratio. peroxide (pv), p-anisidine (av) and totox values were evaluated to assess the extent of oil deteriorat...

Aqueous extracts of 30 plants were investigated for their antioxidant properties using DPPH and ABTS radical scavenging capacity assay, oxygen radical absorbance capacity (ORAC) assay, superoxide dismutase (SOD) assay, and ferric reducing antioxidant potential (FRAP) assay. Total phenolic content was also determined by the Folin-Ciocalteu method. Antioxidant properties and total phenolic conten...
