  • effect of extraction methods on yield phytochemical constituents and Antioxidant activity of withania somnifera
    Arabian Journal of Chemistry, 2017
    Co-Authors: Tushar Dhanani, Sonal Shah, N A Gajbhiye, Satyanshu Kumar
    Abstract:

    Abstract Withnaia somnifera (L.) is a wonder herb with multiple medicinal properties. Its root is used in the preparation of many Ayurvedic medicines. Withanolides, steroidal lactones, present in the root are active chemical markers, however, phenolics, and flavonoids have also been reported in the root of this plant. In most of the herbal preparations, water extraction is carried out using the infusion or decoction preparation process. In the present study, extract yield, phytochemical constituents such as total phenol and withanolide content of water and water-alcohol extracts prepared using two most commonly used extraction techniques, also known as “Green Extraction” techniques, ultrasound and microwave assisted solvent extraction were compared with the conventional extraction method. Antioxidant activity of the extracts was also determined using DPPH and ABTS methods of Antioxidant Assay. Extract yield, chemical composition of the extracts (total phenol and withanolide content) and Antioxidant activity of the extracts varied with the extraction process as well as solvent composition.

  • Antioxidant and antiplatlet aggregation properties of bark extracts of garcinia pedunculata and garcinia cowa
    Journal of Food Science and Technology-mysore, 2014
    Co-Authors: Anushi Sharma, G S Joseph, R. P. Singh
    Abstract:

    The bark extracts of Garcinia pedunculata and Garcinia cowa, which are abundant in the Northeastern regions of India, were screened for their Antioxidant and in vitro antiplatelet aggregating activities. By β-carotene linoleate model for Antioxidant Assay, acetone extract of G. pedunculata and hexane extracts of G. cowa exhibited higher Antioxidant activity (86.47 and 66.94 % respectively, at 25 ppm) than other extracts. Similar pattern was observed for superoxide radical scavenging method for Antioxidant Assay. The ethyl acetate extract of G. pedunculata and hexane extract of G. cowa exhibited higher antiplatelet aggregation capacity towards ADP induced platelet aggregation (IC50 0.16 and 0.43 ug, respectively) than other extracts.

  • Genesis and development of DPPH method of Antioxidant Assay
    Journal of Food Science and Technology, 2011
    Co-Authors: Sagar B. Kedare, R. P. Singh
    Abstract:

    α, α-diphenyl-β-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) free radical scavenging method offers the first approach for evaluating the Antioxidant potential of a compound, an extract or other biological sources. This is the simplest method, wherein the prospective compound or extract is mixed with DPPH solution and absorbance is recorded after a defined period. However, with the advancement and sophistication in instrumental techniques, the method has undergone various modifications to suit the requirements, even though the basic approach remains same in all of them. This article presents a critical review on various developments to the DPPH method.

  • in vitro Antioxidant activity of silymarin
    Journal of Enzyme Inhibition and Medicinal Chemistry, 2009
    Co-Authors: Ekrem Koksal, Sevim Beyza, Ozturk Sarikaya, Ilhami Gulcin, Ercan Bursal
    Abstract:

    Silymarin, a known standardized extract obtained from seeds of Silybum marianum is widely used in treatment of several diseases of varying origin. In the present paper, we clarified the Antioxidant activity of silymarin by employing various in vitro Antioxidant Assay such as 1,1-diphenyl-2-picryl-hydrazyl free radical (DPPH·) scavenging, 2,2′-azino-bis(3-ethylbenzthiazoline-6-sulfonic acid) (ABTS) radical scavenging activity, total Antioxidant activity determination by ferric thiocyanate, total reducing ability determination by Fe3+ − Fe2+ transformation method and Cuprac Assay, superoxide anion radical scavenging by riboflavin/methionine/illuminate system, hydrogen peroxide scavenging and ferrous ions (Fe2+) chelating activities. Silymarin inhibited 82.7% lipid peroxidation of linoleic acid emulsion at 30 μg/mL concentration; butylated hydroxyanisole (BHA), butylated hydroxytoluene (BHT), α-tocopherol and trolox indicated inhibition of 83.3, 82.1, 68.1 and 81.3% on peroxidation of linoleic acid emulsion ...
