antioxidants are vital substances which possess the ability to protect the body from damage caused by free radical induced oxidative stress. a variety of free radical scavenging antioxidants exist within the body which many of them are derived from dietary sources like fruits, vegetables and teas. in this study the antioxidant activity and radical scavenging activity of methanolic extracts of s...

background & aim: medicinal plants can be a good replacement for common cancer treatment including chemotherapy, radiation therapy and surgery because they don’t have many side effects. the aim of this study was to investigate the effect of temperature on the free radical scavenging in the presence of medicinal plants. experimental: for determination of free radical scavenging activity was...

the present study was designed to explore the flavonoid contents and the radical scavenging activities of 50% ethanol extracts of leaves, stems, rachis and roots of dryopteris erythrosora. the total flavonoid contents in various parts were determined as: stems > roots > rachis > leaves. all extracts from different parts of d. erythrosora showed strong bioactivities. the dpph free radical scaven...

the antioxidant potential of crude methanol extract (ce) as well as chloroform (cf), ethyl acetate (ef) and n-butanol (nf) soluble fractions of enhydra fluctuans lour, which is widely used in indigenous system of medicine for different purposes, were studied. the antioxidant potential of extract/different fractions were evaluated using different in vitro antioxidant models. in addition, total a...

objective: the present study was an attempt to study total phenolic content and antioxidant property of the crude ethanolic extract of the roots of azadirachta indica (a. indica). materials and methods: to evaluate the antioxidant properties of the crude extract, some complementary test systems, namely dpph free radical scavenging assay, reducing power assay, and ferrous ion chelating ability a...

The present work is carried out to study the antioxidant potential of ethanolic extract of Alstonia scholaris Linn. ( Apocynaceae ) using various in vitro tests including 1,1-diphenyl-2-picryl-hydrazil (DPPH . ) free radical scavenging, metal ion chelating, hydrogen peroxide scavenging, superoxide anion radical scavenging, and ferric thiocyanate reducing ability.   Ethanolic ex...

In this paper, the synthesis and free-radical scavenging capacity of novel calix[4]arene-based cluster of paracetamol was reported. The phenolic structures of acetaminophen and calix[4]arene prompted us for designing a synthetic route for calix[4]arene-based cyclic tetramer of paracetamol. The present chalice-shaped cluster is the first example of calixarene/acetaminophen hybrid and paracetamol...
