The study aims at preparing &lt;em&gt;Brassica oleracea&lt;/em&gt; extracts using a range of polar and non-polar solvents and to evaluate its phytochemical, antioxidant and cytotoxicity properties. &lt;strong&gt;Methods: &lt;/strong&gt;&lt;em&gt;Brassica oleracea&lt;/em&gt; was extracted using hexane, ethyl acetate and ethanol. All the extracts were subjected to phytochemical analysis and antioxidant activity was performed using DPPH method. The antiproliferative activity was perfomed on THP-1 cells by MTT assay. The extract showing maximum activity was then characterized using FTIR and GCMS. &lt;strong&gt;Results: &lt;/strong&gt;The extract study infers positive results for major secondary metabolites (alkaloids, glycosides, proteins, phenols, tannins, steroids, flavonoids, terpenoids and diterpenes) and negative for quinones and coumarins. DPPH radical scavenging assay showed high antioxidant activity for ethanol extracts 45-91% at 5μg/mL followed by ethyl acetate (37%-80%) and hexane extract (23%-73%). The anti-proliferative activity in THP-1 cells, revealed that the ethanolic extract significantly decreases cell viability relative to hexane and ethyl acetate extracts, indicating its potential as a natural anticancer drug. &lt;strong&gt;Conclusion: &lt;/strong&gt;Cytotoxicity studies further demonstrated a concentration dependent effect on cell viability, indicating its potential bioactivity. The structural analysis performed with FTIR and GC-MS revealed important functional groups and bioactive compounds that could play a role in these effects&lt;/p&gt;

Despite Indonesia’s rich biodiversity, the phytochemical profile of propolis from South Sulawesi and its antibacterial potential against &lt;em&gt;Pseudomonas aeruginosa&lt;/em&gt; remain underexplored. &lt;strong&gt;Objective:&lt;/strong&gt; This study aimed to tentatively identify flavonoid and glycoside compounds in &lt;em&gt;A. mellifera&lt;/em&gt; propolis from South Sulawesi and to evaluate its antibacterial activity. Methods: Propolis samples were collected from Masamba Subdistrict, South Sulawesi, and extracted using 70% ethanol through ultrasonic-assisted extraction. Phytochemical profiling and tentative compound identification were performed using Thin Layer Chromatography (TLC) and LC-MS/MS-QTOF. Antibacterial activity was tested by the disk diffusion method at concentrations of 0.25%, 0.5%, and 0.75%, with ciprofloxacin and distilled water as positive and negative controls. &lt;strong&gt;Results:&lt;/strong&gt; The analysis revealed that flavonoids and glycosides were the main constituents of the extract. These compounds were tentatively identified along with other secondary metabolites, including alkaloids, terpenoids, and phenolic compounds, indicating a complex chemical composition. Antibacterial testing showed mean inhibition zones of 11.23 mm (0.25%), 13.65 mm (0.5%), and 16.50 mm (0.75%), whereas ciprofloxacin and the negative control produced zones of 31.95 mm and 5.70 mm, respectively. ANOVA revealed significant differences among treatments (F = 232.4, p &amp;lt; 0.0001), with the 0.75% extract showing the largest mean inhibition zone. &lt;strong&gt;Conclusions: &lt;/strong&gt;These findings suggest that South Sulawesi propolis contains tentatively identified bioactive flavonoids and glycosides and demonstrates antibacterial activity against &lt;em&gt;Pseudomonas aeruginosa&lt;/em&gt;, indicating its potential as a natural antibacterial source for further investigation.&lt;/p&gt;

One such plant is breadfruit (&lt;em&gt;Artocarpus altilis&lt;/em&gt;), whose leaves contain bioactive compounds such as flavonoids, saponins, tannins, quercetin, artocarpanone, and artoindonesianin. Another plant with high medicinal value is roselle (&lt;em&gt;Hibiscus sabdariffa L.&lt;/em&gt;), a tropical plant from the Malvaceae family known for its rich phenolic content. Both plants are widely found across Indonesia and have potential as natural antioxidants. In this study, the dry extracts were prepared using the decoction method followed by spray drying. Phytochemical screening, total phenolic and flavonoid content analysis, and antioxidant activity tests were performed using standard in vitro methods. The DE2C extract (a combination of breadfruit leaves and roselle flowers) exhibited high total phenol content at 0.953 ± 0.005 g GAE/100 g and flavonoid content at 136.97 ± 5.050 μg QE/100 g. Meanwhile, the DE3C extract showed an IC&lt;sub&gt;₅₀&lt;/sub&gt; value of 540.55 ppm in the DPPH assay. Pearson correlation analysis showed a strong positive correlation between total phenolic content and antioxidant activity (R = 0.956, p &amp;lt; 0.05), while flavonoids also showed a moderate correlation (R = 0.502, p &amp;lt; 0.05). These results confirm that phenolic compounds play a key role in the antioxidant potential of the extract.&lt;/p&gt;

Hazardous dyes are stable and resistant to biodegradation due to their complex aromatic structure, so dyes need to be treated. Metanil Yellow is a dye that is harmful to aquatic life and the human body. One method that can be used is adsorption with the batch method because it has the advantage of low cost and simple processing. Flavonoid extracts have high potential to be used as biosorbents because they have hydroxyl and carbonyl groups. This study aims to determine the potential of flavonoid extracts to adsorb metanil yellow dye using optimum pH and solution concentration and to determine its absorption capacity. The results showed that the optimum pH obtained was at pH 2 and the optimum solution concentration was at 150 ppm with an absorption capacity of 9.22078 mg/g.&lt;/p&gt;

Two-Way ANOVA test results obtained p value = 0.013 &amp;lt;0.05, which indicates that there is a significant difference between the use of 15% ramania leaf extract gel 15% and the number of osteoblasts on days 5, 7 and 14. Bonferroni's Post Hoc test showed a difference. The number of osteoblasts was significant among the negative control group with ramania leaf extract gel 15%. Ramania leaf extract gel 15% was proven to be able to increase the number of osteoblasts and has the potential as an alternative medicine for socket healing after tooth extraction.&lt;/p&gt;

Using the keyword combination “&lt;em&gt;Zea mays&lt;/em&gt; L” AND “polyphenols”, a search was made in Google Scholar, PubMed, ScienceDirect and Scopus databases, identifying 22 polyphenolic compounds. Polyphenolic ligands and control molecules were prepared with the OpenBabel program and parameterized with AutoDock Tools. In addition, the crystallized structure of HMG-CoA reductase (1DQA) was downloaded from the Protein Data Bank database, then prepared in PyMOL and parameterized with AutoDock Tools. Molecular docking was performed in AutoDock Vina with a 100-time repetition for each ligand-target interaction. The results show that the hydrogen bonds with amino acids of importance in HMG-CoA reductase are ASN 658, ARG 590, and GLU 559. Protocatechuic acid, caffeic acid, vanillic acid, ferulic acid, p-coumaric acid, and 4-hydroxybenzoic acid presented lower affinity energy (ΔG°). The physicochemical and pharmacokinetic properties of the molecules with the best pharmacodynamic interaction were analyzed with the SwissADME and pkCSM servers, showing that protocatechuic, caffeic, vanillic, ferulic, p-coumaric and 4-hydroxybenzoic acids have the best physicochemical and pharmacokinetic profile. Therefore, this study gives us a clearer idea of the action of polyphenols on HMG-CoA reductase, which will allow obtaining new drug candidates for the treatment of hypercholesterolemia.&lt;/p&gt;

Br) is one of the typical plants of East Nusa Tenggara (NTT). Faloak contain flavonoid and polyphenol compounds, and show strong antioxidants activity which potentially correlated with its elastase inhibitory activity. Therefore, in this research, elastase inhibitory activity on various part of Faloak plant was investigated. &lt;strong&gt;Objective:&lt;/strong&gt; The purpose of this research was to investigate the elastase inhibitory activity, determination of total polyphenol, determination of total flavonoids, and also pharmacognosy characterization of Faloak leaves, roots, stems and stem barks. &lt;strong&gt;Methods:&lt;/strong&gt; Sample of leaves, roots, stems, and stem barks were extracted by 70% ethanol using ultrasound-assisted extraction (UAE). Phytochemical screening, microscopic identification and elastase inhibitory activity testing were performed on the leaves, roots, stems, and stem barks extract. This extract with the highest elastase inhibitory activity was then determined for its total polyphenol content and of total flavonoids content. &lt;strong&gt;Results:&lt;/strong&gt; UAE method with 70% ethanol successfully extracted active compounds from leaves, stems, roots, and stem barks of Faloak. Extract of all Faloak parts contained alkaloids, flavonoids, tannins, terpenes, and glycosides. The extract of Faloak stem barks showed the strongest elastase inhibitory activity as compared to the extract from other parts, with IC&lt;sub&gt;50&lt;/sub&gt; of 73.7 μg/mL. Alkaloid, flavonoid, tannin, terpene, and glycoside were detected as secondary metabolite in the extract of leaves, roots, stems and stem barks. The extract of Faloak stem barks showed the highest elastase inhibitory activity with IC50 73.7 μg/mL. The total flavonoids and total polyphenol content of Faloak stem bark extract were respectively 28.75 mg/gram and 45.25 mg/gram extract. &lt;strong&gt;Conclusion: &lt;/strong&gt;The 70% ethanol extract of leaves, roots, stems, and stem barks of Faloak showed elastase inhibitory activity, and stem barks extract showed the strongest activity. Faloak stem barks extract can be considered as potential to be developed as active compound in anti-aging product, both in cosmetic and pharmaceutical dosage forms.&lt;/p&gt;

The oil from the seed plant is a greatest interesting a natural source. &lt;strong&gt;Objectives:&lt;/strong&gt; The aims of this study were investigated phytochemical screening, to evaluated the total flavonoids and phenolic compound contents as well as antioxidant activities of seedling extract from &lt;em&gt;P. volubilis. &lt;/em&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Methods: &lt;/strong&gt;The dried &lt;em&gt;P. volubilis&lt;/em&gt; seedlings of 21 days growing period were extracted by using different solvent including aqueous (ASS), 50% ethanolic (HESS), and 95% ethanolic (ESS) extracts. The phytochemical screenings were determined on total phenolic compound (TPC) and flavonoid (TFC) contents. The antioxidation were tested by using 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazy radical scavenging (DPPH), 2,2 -azinobis-(3-ethylbenzothiazoline-6-sulphonate) (ABTS&lt;sup&gt;+&lt;/sup&gt;) assay, and ferric reducing antioxidant power (FRAP). &lt;strong&gt;Results: &lt;/strong&gt;The results found that the ESS were significantly highest amount on total phenolic compound (23.0809±0.8632 mgGE/gExt ) and flavonoid (466.3839±1.5580 mgQE/gExt) contents. In this study, ascorbic acid (IC&lt;sub&gt;50 &lt;/sub&gt;=0.016±0.0003 mg/mL) and Trolox (IC&lt;sub&gt;50&lt;/sub&gt; =0.044±0.0008 mg/mL) as standard substances were showed more potent than all of the extracts from &lt;em&gt;P. volubilis &lt;/em&gt;seedlings. Surprisingly, the ESS has more potent on free radical scavenging higher than different solvents; DPPH=0.007± 0.001 (IC&lt;sub&gt;50&lt;/sub&gt;=mg/mL), ABTS= 1.4065± 0.0505 (IC&lt;sub&gt;50&lt;/sub&gt;=mg/mL),and FRAP= 74.4960± 2.6067 (mg=TE/gExt). &lt;strong&gt;Conclusion:&lt;/strong&gt; the plant seedling extracts composed with high amount of flavonoids and phenolic compound contents possess valuable to antioxidant activities. The seedling extracts from the plant could apply to supplementary food, cosmetic, pharmaceutical, and horticultural industries. Next study, chemical compositions, the major active compound(s), and biological activities will be clarified.&lt;/p&gt;

It is native to the Mediterranean region and western Asia and is commonly known as blessed thistle, holy thistle, St Benedict’s thistle or spotted thistle. Traditionally, it has been used to treat bubonic plague and possesses diuretic, galactagogue, liver-strengthening and wound healing properties. Recent research studies have investigated its anticancer, antiinflammatory, antioxidant and other therapeutic properties. Several studies have also reported its antimicrobial activity against a range of bacterial pathogens. However, most of these studies were preliminary and only tested relatively high concentrations of the extracts. Additionally, most studies screened a limited number of pathogens. Cnicin is the main chemical compound present in &lt;em&gt;C. benedicta &lt;/em&gt;and it has been widely investigated. However, few other compounds from this plant have been identified and/or investigated, and further phytochemical studies are warranted. Interestingly, pure cnicin has good anticancer activity, whilst the crude extracts lack cytotoxic properties. Phytochemical analyses of&lt;em&gt; C. benedicta &lt;/em&gt;extracts reveal the presence of multiple flavonoids, tannins, terpenoids and lactones, although few specific phytochemicals within these phytochemical classes have been identified. A limited number of research studies have determined the toxicity profile of &lt;em&gt;C. benedicta &lt;/em&gt;in order to evaluate its safety for human use. Substantially more detailed studies are required to rigorously investigate the therapeutic properties and phytochemistry of &lt;em&gt;C. benedicta&lt;/em&gt;, which may ultimately lead to the development of new plant-based therapeutic medicines.&lt;/p&gt;

The use of a single dose in the treatment of diabetes is often considered to lack a strong effect. Giving a combination of the compound is a solution to provide a synergistic effect in treatment. &lt;strong&gt;Material and Methods:&lt;/strong&gt; Rat were divided into eight groups (normal, negative control, glibenclamide as a positive control, and five dose extract group). The single dose mountain papaya extract (MPE) and bitter melon extract (BME) were given at 174 mg/kg b.w of MPE, and 380 mg/kg b.w of BME in oral administration. Combination of MPE:BME (25:75, 50:50, 75:25)% or (87:190; 44:285 and 130:95) mg/kg b.w in oral administration. Induction of diabetes used alloxan dose of 150 mg/kg b.w intraperitoneally. The treatment was performed for 21 days with a frequency of once a day. Blood sugar level was measured at pretest, 7&lt;sup&gt;th&lt;/sup&gt;, 14&lt;sup&gt;th&lt;/sup&gt;, and 21&lt;sup&gt;st &lt;/sup&gt;days. At the end of the test, measurements of malondialdehyde (MDA), glutathione (GSH), and pancreatic morphology were measured. Data were analyzed by ANOVA statistic. &lt;strong&gt;Results: &lt;/strong&gt;The single and combination of MPE-BME showed an decrease in blood glucose levels significantly compared with the negative control (&lt;em&gt;p&lt;/em&gt; ≤ 0.05). The same results from measurements of levels of malondialdehyde (MDA), glutathione (GSH), and pancreatic morphology. &lt;strong&gt;Conclusions:&lt;/strong&gt; Based on the research, a combination of the MPE-BME had antidiabetic and antioxidant activity, but the activity was not significantly different from both single-dose extract (&lt;em&gt;p&lt;/em&gt;&amp;gt; 0.05).&lt;/p&gt;

Chromosomal aberration analysis in somatic and germ cells were also included. &lt;strong&gt;Materials and Methods: &lt;/strong&gt;Six mice groups were used for this study. Group 1 served as a negative control. Group 2 received oral LSF (100 mg/kg b.wt.) for 5 consecutive days. Group 3 served as a positive control by receiving a single intraperitoneal (i.p.) CP dose (20 mg/kg b.wt.). The three other groups were orally administered 25, 50 and 100 mg/kg b.wt. LSF, respectively, for 5 consecutive days. On the last day of treatment, the three groups received i.p. injection of CP (20 mg/kg b.wt.). Flavonoids were identified using spectral analysis.&lt;strong&gt; Results: &lt;/strong&gt;LSF inhibited DNA aberrations in mice caused by cyclophosphamide dose dependently in the three groups with significant difference in the two groups that received doses of 50 and 100 mg/kg b.wt. The chromosomal aberrations inhibitory indices were calculated as 18 and 31 in mice somatic cells and 27 and 48 in germ cells, respectively. LSF was found to contain the flavonoids kaempferol, quercetin, kaempferol-3-O-α-L-rhamnopyranoside, kaempferol-3-O-β-D-glucopyranoside, and quercetin-3-O-β-D-galactopyranoside. &lt;strong&gt;Conclusion: &lt;/strong&gt;LSF inhibited the DNA damage induced by CP in somatic and germ cells of mice dose-dependently. The antioxidant properties associated with flavonoids might account for the genoprotective activity.&lt;/p&gt;

The &lt;em&gt;Psydrax genus &lt;/em&gt;has been reported to have various pharmacological activities. Based on ethno-pharmacological information, &lt;em&gt;Psydrax horizontalis &lt;/em&gt;Schum. and Thonn. (Bridson) locally known as “&lt;em&gt;Akata-ike&lt;/em&gt;” in Nsukka is used in the management of diabetes in South-eastern Nigeria. However as at the time of this research, no previous work has been done to investigate its phytochemical constituents and anti-diabetic activity. &lt;strong&gt;Methods:&lt;/strong&gt; The methanol extract (ME) obtained by maceration was analysed for phytochemicals present using standard procedures. Alloxan monohydrate at 150 mg/Kg was used to induce diabetes. Acute toxicity test was done using the Lorke’s method. The normoglycemic and alloxan-induced groups of twenty animals each were treated orally with 100, 200 and 400 mg/Kg of ME; 5 mg/Kg of glibenclamide and 2 mL/kg of 3% Tween 80 as the controls. The fasting blood glucose concentrations were monitored at 0, 1, 3 and 6 h, as well as 1&lt;sup&gt;st&lt;/sup&gt;, 3&lt;sup&gt;rd&lt;/sup&gt; and 5&lt;sup&gt;th&lt;/sup&gt; day. &lt;strong&gt;Results:&lt;/strong&gt; Phytochemical screening revealed the presence of glycosides, alkaloids, tannins, flavonoids, steroids, saponins and terpenoids. Median lethal dose was greater than 5000 mg/kg. In the alloxan-induced diabetic rats, significant activity at &lt;em&gt;p&lt;/em&gt;&amp;lt;0.01 on the 6th hour was recorded at doses 100, 200 and 400 mg/Kg ME on day 3. &lt;strong&gt;Conclusion:&lt;/strong&gt; The ME of &lt;em&gt;Psydrax horizontalis&lt;/em&gt; possesses significant anti-diabetic activity in the alloxan-induced diabetic rats. The results obtained validate its traditional use in management of diabetes.&lt;/p&gt;

This work aims to systematize data on the chemical composition of biologically active compounds of spinach, that determine its adaptogenic properties and concentration methods in the spinach processing for use in specialized foods and dietary supplements.&lt;strong&gt; Materials and Methods:&lt;/strong&gt; Manifold electronic search engines, electronic databases, and libraries such as Google, Google scholar, Crossref, Indian Science Abstracts, Emerging Sources Citation Index, e-Library, Scopus, Web of Science, Pubmed, Chemical Abstracts, Index Copernicus, scientific literature had been searched and data obtained. &lt;strong&gt;Results: &lt;/strong&gt;Botanical characteristics of spinach, main cultivation conditions, the latest data on the chemical composition of raw spinach material cultivars and extracts based on it are presented in this study. Schemes for the obtaining of products enriched with polyphenols and ecdysteroids are considered, and ways of proper purification are mentioned. &lt;strong&gt;Conclusion:&lt;/strong&gt; It is recommended to introduce spinach into the diet of healthy people in order to increase the functional reserves of a person during periods of hypovitaminosis, overwork, intense physical exertion, and also to compensate for the adverse effects of external factors. Spinach extracts containing phytoecdysteroids (20-hydroxyecdysone) and polyphenols (flavonoids) can be used as a prophylactic to overcome the negative effects of stress, accelerate recovery after strong physical and mental stress, particularly for people with extreme occupations, athletes, and those who are engaged in hard physical labor.&lt;/p&gt;

(&lt;em&gt;Plantaginaceae&lt;/em&gt;) is a perennial herb having contribution to the folk medicine all around the world, including Indonesia with wide geographical distribution. Plant materials origin is one factor that significantly influences the quality of herbal medicines. &lt;strong&gt;Materials and Methods:&lt;/strong&gt; In this paper, High-Performance Thin Layer Chromatography (HPTLC) method using pattern-oriented approach has been employed to evaluate the quality of &lt;em&gt;Plantago major&lt;/em&gt; leaves collected from seven origins in Indonesia. To differentiate the antioxidant capacities of those plant materials, the crude extracts were tested using 1,1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH), total phenolics, and total flavonoids assay methods. &lt;strong&gt;Results:&lt;/strong&gt; The results showed that radical scavenging activity, total phenolics, and total flavonoids of plant material from seven origins were significantly different. Moreover, HPTLC fingerprints analyzed with chemometrics showed an ability to discriminate the leaves samples from various origins as well as detect chemicals responsible for discrimination. Two models using principal component analysis (PCA) and partial least squares (PLS-DA) were built in chemometrics test. The PCA model was able to describe the studied samples by using four principal components with a value of explained variance of 95%, whereas PLS-DA model accurately classified the leaves samples with prediction ability of 100%. In the PCA, loading plot of the first PC showed that peaks number 10 and 12 are the most important peaks for clustering of the samples. &lt;strong&gt;Conclusions: &lt;/strong&gt;&lt;em&gt;Plantago major &lt;/em&gt;collected from different origins revealed different radical scavenging activity and concentration of total phenolics as well as total flavonoids. HPTLC fingerprints coupled with chemometrics analysis can be used as an alternative to marker-oriented method for the quality control of &lt;em&gt;Plantago major&lt;/em&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;

In this article studies on the standardization of &lt;em&gt;Passiflora incarnata&lt;/em&gt; L. dry extract (PDE) by flavonoids are presented. The aim of this work was to study the composition and content of flavonoids in PDE with the help of precise modern physicochemical methods. &lt;strong&gt;Materials and Methods:&lt;/strong&gt; PDE was prepared from crude herbal drug – &lt;em&gt;P. incarnata&lt;/em&gt; herb of Russian origin. Reverse phase HPLC-UV analysis was performed with Agilent 1100 liquid chromatograph. Chromatographic column was Atlantis C&lt;sub&gt;18&lt;/sub&gt; (250 mm × 4.6 mm × 5 μm); analytical wavelength – 350 nm; mobile phase – 0.01% formic acid solution and methanol: acetonitrile (25:75); column temperature – 35°C; analysis time – 90 min; flow rate of the mobile phase – 0.8 ml/min in gradient elution mode. Commercially available samples of flavonoids were used for identification and quantitative determination. &lt;strong&gt;Results: &lt;/strong&gt;20 compounds of flavonoid structure are presented in the PDE. 9 flavonoid compounds have been identified, they are: isovitexin, vitexin, rutoside, hyperoside, luteolin, kaempferol, kaempferitrin, orientin, and isoorientin. The content of vitexin is 0,867 ± 0,011%, the total flavonoids content in terms of vitexin is 3,762 ± 0,049%. &lt;strong&gt;Conclusion: &lt;/strong&gt;The obtained data will be used to create regulatory documentation for drugs based on PDE.&lt;/p&gt;

(Family Asteraceae) growing in the Primorsky Territory, the Amur region and in the South of the Khabarovsk Territory of Russia was studied. &lt;strong&gt;Materials and Methods:&lt;/strong&gt; Flavonoids quercetin-4’-O-β-D-glucuronopyranoside (1) and apigenin-7-O-β-D-glucuronopyranoside (2) were isolated from &lt;em&gt;Serratula manshurica&lt;/em&gt; by methods of liquid extraction and recrystallization. The structures of the isolated compounds were identified by UV, NMR spectroscopy and mass spectrometry with electrospray ionization. Separation and quantitative content of flavonoids in the extracts of the aerial part (Leaves, stems, inflorescences) of&lt;em&gt; Serratula manshurica&lt;/em&gt; was observed by RP HPLC. &lt;strong&gt;Results and Conclusion:&lt;/strong&gt; The change in the amount of some flavonoids in various phenological phases in the overhead part of &lt;em&gt;Serratula manshurica&lt;/em&gt; Kitag was studied. It was revealed that the maximum concentration of flavonoid aglycones in the plant was observed during the before budding in the budding period and their glycosides prevaily in the flowering phase. Widespread across the Far East, &lt;em&gt;Serratula manshurica&lt;/em&gt; is promising and renewable source of bioactive compounds.&lt;/p&gt;

The plant material was extracted with methanol and the methanolic extract was screened (&lt;em&gt;in-vitro&lt;/em&gt;) for its antioxidant activity using ABTS and DPPH assays. The potential antidiabetic activity of the plant extract was evaluated against some carbohydrates (α- amylase and α-glucosidase) and lipid (pancreatic lipase) digestive enzymes. The inverted intestinal sac model was also used to investigate the effect of the extract on intestinal glucose absorption. The anti-protein glycation activity of the extract was determined using haemoglobin. &lt;strong&gt;Results:&lt;/strong&gt; The phytochemical screening revealed the presence of most of the phytochemicals (Tannins, Flavonoids, Terpenoids, Alkaloids etc) that were screened for. The crude extract exhibited the antidiabetic potential as it significantly (&lt;em&gt;P&lt;/em&gt;&amp;lt; 0.05) inhibited α-glucosidase and pancreatic lipase in a dose dependent fashion. The extract also effectively reduced intestinal glucose absorption. The extract further showed antioxidant activity by efficiently scavenging ABTS and DPPH radicals with IC&lt;sub&gt;50&lt;/sub&gt; values of 68.3 μg/ml and 308 μg/ml, respectively. The extract also inhibited haemoglobin glycation, thus displaying the anti-protein glycation potential. &lt;strong&gt;Conclusion:&lt;/strong&gt; It is apparent that &lt;em&gt;E. ferox&lt;/em&gt; extract could serve as scaffold for diabetic therapy.

This work aimed at assessing the antiinflammatory and antioxidant activities of &lt;em&gt;P.&amp;nbsp;atlantica&lt;/em&gt; leaves extract in relation to phytochemical studies of flavonoids. &lt;strong&gt;Methods:&lt;/strong&gt; The extract was obtained using sonication of leaves powder in 80 % methanol. The analysis of phenolic compounds was carried out using thin-layer chromatography (TLC). The antioxidant activity was evaluated using DPPH, ABTS and FRAP assays. The anti-inflammatory activity was determined by the reduction of carrageenaninduced hind paw edema in mice. &lt;strong&gt;Results:&lt;/strong&gt; The TLC revealed 3 glycosylated flavonoids and gallic acid derivatives. The flavonoids identified corresponded to rutin, quercetrin and other heterosides of quercetin, kaempferol and myricetin. Total phenolics and flavonoids contents were comparable for the male and female trees. The antioxidant activity did not show a significative difference between the two sexes, except for that evaluated by the FRAP assay which was significantly greater for the male tree leaves extract. The leaves extract permitted significative reduction of the edema at h3 and 6 in a dose-dependent manner (100 and 250 mg/kg), while diclofenac used as control reduced the edema at h 1.5.

To overcome the resistance and other drawbacks of the current antimicrobial drugs and to obtain more efficacious drugs, an antimicrobial drug having a novel mode of action should be developed. The flavonoid compounds have demonstrated for their therapeutic potential as antimicrobial agents previously. &lt;strong&gt;Aim:&lt;/strong&gt; To evaluate the antifungal efficacy of plant derived compounds such as hesperetin (HSP) and silibinin (SBN) compounds &lt;em&gt;in vitro&lt;/em&gt;. &lt;strong&gt;Materials and Methods:&lt;/strong&gt; In this study, we evaluated the antifungal effect of two plant derived flavonoid compounds &lt;em&gt;i.e&lt;/em&gt;., SBN and HSP against &lt;em&gt;Candida albicans, Candida tropicalis, Malassezia furfur, Aspergillus niger, Penicillium oxalicum&lt;/em&gt;. The disk diffusion test was performed to test the antifungal effect of HSP and SBN with three different concentrations &lt;em&gt;i.e.&lt;/em&gt;, 15, 20, 25 mg/ml of HSP and SBN. The antifungal efficacy was studied for 72 h. &lt;strong&gt;Results:&lt;/strong&gt; Our results indicate that SBN has significant antifungal effect than that of HSP. The high sensitivity of these compounds was found against &lt;em&gt;C. albicans, C. tropicalis&lt;/em&gt;. &lt;strong&gt;Conclusion:&lt;/strong&gt; These drugs could be good candidate to combine with regular antimicrobial agents.&lt;/p&gt;</style></abstract><issue><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">4</style></issue><work-type><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Original Article</style></work-type><section><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">789</style></section><auth-address><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">&lt;p style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Ramar Gowtham&lt;sup&gt;1&lt;/sup&gt;, Fysal Yousuf MA&lt;sup&gt;1&lt;/sup&gt;, Devaraj Ezhilarasan&lt;sup&gt;1&lt;/sup&gt;*, Shanmugam Sambantham&lt;sup&gt;2&lt;/sup&gt;, Balakrishnan Anandan&lt;sup&gt;2 &lt;/sup&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

Although conventional medicine is available, it is usually accompanied by serious side effects such as gastrointestinal problem. Thus, the search for alternative medicine from natural sources is of primary importance. &lt;strong&gt;Context:&lt;/strong&gt; The study is concerned with &lt;em&gt;Caesalpinia sappan L.&lt;/em&gt; found in the vicinity of Baybay City, Leyte Philippines. Furthermore, it deals with ethanolic and aqueous extracts of the bark only. It was conducted to determine the alpha-glucosidase inhibitory activity of C. sappan to provide evidence to support its efficacy as a folkloric medicinal plant. &lt;strong&gt;Aims:&lt;/strong&gt; This work aimed to evaluate the alpha-glucosidase inhibitory activity of aqueous and ethanolic bark extracts of Sibucao (&lt;em&gt;Caesalpinia sappan L.&lt;/em&gt;) and to partially fractionate its bioactive compounds. &lt;strong&gt;Settings and Design:&lt;/strong&gt; Extracts were prepared in increasing concentration to get IC&lt;sub&gt;50&lt;/sub&gt; values. Samples were analysed in triplicate both for extracts and fractions collected from chromatography. &lt;strong&gt;Methods and Material:&lt;/strong&gt; &lt;em&gt;Caesalpinia sappan L.&lt;/em&gt; bark samples were collected from the vicinity of Visayas State University. Plant materials were dried, weighed and stored. Aqueous and ethanolic bark extracts were prepared using water and 20% ethanol. The total phenolic content of the extracts were determined and the &amp;alpha;-glucosidase inhibitory activity of crude bark and aqueous extracts were measured using the method of Kim &lt;em&gt;et al&lt;/em&gt;., 2011. Partial fractionation of bioactive compounds was done successively using gradient elution. The &amp;alpha;-glucosidase inhibitory activity of fractions were then determined and Rf values of active compounds were measured using thin layer chromatography (TLC). &lt;strong&gt;Results:&lt;/strong&gt; Results revealed that aqueous extract (2000 ppm) and ethanolic extract (2000 ppm) show high &amp;alpha;-glucosidase inhibitory activity of 100% and 59% respectively. IC&lt;sub&gt;50&lt;/sub&gt; values of aqueous and ethanolic extract were found to be 300.52 &amp;plusmn; 1.467 ppm and 1560.81 &amp;plusmn; 2.582 ppm, respectively. TLC of fractions show 7 peaks for aqueous extract and 6 peaks for ethanolic extract in which compound with Rf value 0.70 had the highest inhibitory activity of 65%. &lt;strong&gt;Conclusions:&lt;/strong&gt; Taken together, the high &amp;alpha;-glucosidase inhibitory activity of aqueous extracts support the effectiveness of C. sappan L. bark decoctions. In addition, results from bioassay-guided fractionation can be used as an effective tool for further isolation and characterization of &amp;alpha;-glucosidase inhibitors from Caesalpinia sappan L. in the Philippines.&lt;/p&gt;</style></abstract><issue><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">3</style></issue><work-type><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Original Article</style></work-type><section><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">356</style></section><auth-address><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">&lt;p style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Ea Kristine Clarisse B.

On the other hand, fingerprinting analysis and quantification of major flavonoids of 184 cultivars were performed by high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC). Among twenty five (25) components which were detected and separated: ten were corresponding to quercetin 3-Oglucosyl- rhamnoside (Rt=23.5), quercetin 3-O-glucoside (Rt=25), kaempferol 3-O-glucosylrhamnoside and its acylated derivative (Rt=32), kaempferol 3-O-glucoside (Rt=33), quercetin 3-O-p.coumaroyl-diglucoside (Rt=37), quercetin 3-O-P.coumaroyl-glucoside (Rt=40.5), quercetin (Rt=41.5), kaempferol and its acylated derivative (Rt=47). Only non-acylated glycosides of quercetin and kaempferol contributed to chemical variations among different cultivars based on the results of PCA. &lt;strong&gt;Conclusion:&lt;/strong&gt; The genus &lt;em&gt;Begonia&lt;/em&gt; is very heterogeneous and it is possible to distinguish several chemotypes whose differences rely on the complementarities between the metabolic pathways involved in the biosynthesis of glycosides of quercetin and kaempferol.&lt;/p&gt;</style></abstract><issue><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">6</style></issue><work-type><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Original Article</style></work-type><section><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">850</style></section><auth-address><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">&lt;p style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Saffidine Karima&lt;sup&gt;1*&lt;/sup&gt;, Chirol Nadine&lt;sup&gt;2&lt;/sup&gt;, Benayache Fadila&lt;sup&gt;3&lt;/sup&gt;, Jay Maurice&lt;sup&gt;2&lt;/sup&gt; &lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

Flavonoid is a phenolic compound which is widely distributed in the plants and responsible for many biological activities. Preliminary phytochemical analysis gives a broad idea to the researchers for their further research. &lt;strong&gt;Methods:&lt;/strong&gt; In this present study, we did a preliminary phytochemical screening, quantitative estimation of total flavonoids and fingerprinting profile of flavonoids compounds using five different solvent extracts obtained from leaves of &lt;em&gt;L. aspera.&lt;/em&gt; &lt;strong&gt;Results:&lt;/strong&gt; Preliminary phytochemical screening confirmed the presence of flavonoid compounds in &lt;em&gt;L. aspera&lt;/em&gt;. Higher concentration of total flavonoid compounds was noted in ethanol extract compared to petroleum ether, chloroform, isopropyl alcohol and ethyl acetate extracts. A densitometric high performance thin layer chromatography (HPTLC) study showed more number of flavonoid compounds are present in ethanol extract compared to other solvents. &lt;strong&gt;Conclusions:&lt;/strong&gt; Results of this study revealed, &lt;em&gt;L. aspera&lt;/em&gt; leaf is a rich source of flavonoid content and it can be used to alleviate many chronic illness and various diseases. This study results warrants for further isolation, identification and characterization of active principle which is responsible for the biological activity.&lt;/p&gt;</style></abstract><issue><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">6</style></issue><work-type><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Original Article</style></work-type><section><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">942</style></section><auth-address><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">&lt;p style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Vellaichamy Muthupandi Annapandian&lt;sup&gt;1,2*&lt;/sup&gt;, Rajagopal Shanmuga Sundaram&lt;sup&gt;1&lt;/sup&gt;, Swaminathan Gomathi&lt;sup&gt;3&lt;/sup&gt; &lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

The antioxidant values (IC&lt;sub&gt;50&lt;/sub&gt; (&lt;em&gt;&amp;mu;&lt;/em&gt;g/ml)) ranged from 1.56 x 10&lt;sup&gt;-4&lt;/sup&gt; to 21.07 x10&lt;sup&gt;-4&lt;/sup&gt;.Total phenol content ranged between 2.54 and 17.53 mg/g GAE with a mean of about 11.27 mg/g GAE. Total flavonoid content also ranged from 5.46 to 23.75 mg/g RUE with a mean of 13.41 mg/g RUE. Micronutrients such as cadmium, iron, lead, manganese and zinc were determined. Also macronutrients determined included, calcium, potassium, magnesium and sodium. Sodium ranged the highest with values ranging 6966.67 mg/L to 9600.00 mg/L followed by iron ranging from 1613.67 to 3040.00 mg/L. Percentage crude protein ranged between 11.09 % and 28.24 %. Alkaloid was present in only &lt;em&gt;Mycena&lt;/em&gt; sp and &lt;em&gt;Ganoderma&lt;/em&gt; sp with a band each of R&lt;sub&gt;f&lt;/sub&gt; value of 0.49. A total of 18 different bands were recorded for flavonoid with R&lt;sub&gt;f&lt;/sub&gt; values that ranged between 0.20 and 0.97, respectively. &lt;strong&gt;Conclusion:&amp;nbsp;&lt;/strong&gt;The antioxidant potential of the methanolic extracts of the mushroom samples in this study recorded higher values. This indicates that mushrooms have high antioxidant properties and rationalizes further investigation in the potential discovery of new natural bioactive principles from these mushrooms.&lt;/p&gt;</style></abstract><issue><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">6s</style></issue><work-type><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Original Article</style></work-type><section><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">s16</style></section><auth-address><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">&lt;p style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Ebenezer Owusu&lt;sup&gt;1&lt;/sup&gt;*, Gladys Schwinger&lt;sup&gt;1&lt;/sup&gt;, Matilda Dzomeku&lt;sup&gt;2&lt;/sup&gt;, Mary Obodai&lt;sup&gt;2&lt;/sup&gt; and Isaac Asante&lt;sup&gt;1 &lt;/sup&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

The same extract was subjected&amp;nbsp;to serial solvent fractionation, TLC characterization and antidiabetic testing.&amp;nbsp;&lt;strong&gt;Results: &lt;/strong&gt;The secondary metabolites were found to comprise of 7.5% alkaloids,&amp;nbsp;10% flavonoids, 13% tannins and 17% saponins per gram of plant material.&amp;nbsp;The TLC characteristics of the fractions (hexane (HX), ethylacetate (EA)&amp;nbsp;and methanol (ME)) viewed under UV light revealed spots with the following&amp;nbsp;Rf values; the hexane partition gave HX7EA3 (0.96 and 0.68) HX9EA1&amp;nbsp;(0.68 and 0.3), EA1ME9 (0.86 and 0.58), EA3ME7 (0.87), EA7ME3 (0.85)&amp;nbsp;and EA9ME1 (0.85). The ethylacetate partition gave the following HX1EA9 (0.53, 0.34 and 0.18), HX3EA7 (0.59, 0.40 and 0.26). &lt;strong&gt;Discussion: &lt;/strong&gt;All the&amp;nbsp;fractions produced nominal reduction of hyperglycemia. Except hexane&amp;nbsp;fraction at 50 mg/kg and ethylacetate fraction at 200 mg/kg all the fractions&amp;nbsp;had percentage reductions of glucose greater than that of the control at&amp;nbsp;the experimental doses. Although the values of percentage reductions of&amp;nbsp;hyperglycemia by the hexane fraction were apparently dose-dependent,&amp;nbsp;the greatest margin of reduction of hyperglycemia was observed in the&amp;nbsp;residual aqueous fraction. &lt;strong&gt;Conclusion: &lt;/strong&gt;It was found that SCE contains&amp;nbsp;valuable phytochemicals in appreciable quantities which are antidiabetic.&amp;nbsp;The residual aqueous fraction is the most potent antihyperglycemic of the&amp;nbsp;solvent fractions.&lt;/p&gt;

This study was undertaken to investigate its phytochemical, physicochemical and radicalscavenging activities of the aerial parts of the plant. &lt;strong&gt;Materials and Methods:&lt;/strong&gt; Physico-chemical parameters: moisture content, foaming index, total ash, dichloromethane, alcohol and water soluble extractive, pleliminary phytochemical screening and TLC finger print profile were determined. Three new flavonol glycosides, 3-&lt;em&gt;O-&amp;szlig&lt;/em&gt;;-gentiobiosides of 6-methoxykaempferol andg omphrenol and a new gomphrenol trioside as well as the known 3-&lt;em&gt;O-&amp;szlig&lt;/em&gt;;-gentiobiosides of patuletin and spinacetin, previously isolated from the aerial parts of &lt;em&gt;Chenopodium foliosum&gt; Asch&lt;/em., were analyzed for radical-scavenging activity using DPPH-, ABTS- free radicals. &lt;strong&gt;Results: &lt;/strong&gt;The results of physico-chemical parameters showed moisture content- 6.05%, foaming index-250, total ash- 12.19% and dichloromethane, alcohol and water soluble extractive respectively 2.52%, 13.20% and 12.01%. Preliminary phytochemical screening of the aerial parts of C. foliosum reveals the presence of carbohydrates, flavonoids, phytosterols, saponins and alkaloids/ amines. Patuletine-3-O-gentiobioside showed the highest DPPH (95.03 &amp;plusmn; 0.09) and ABTS (87.20 &amp;plusmn; 0.13) activity, compared to Vit C. 6-Methoxykaempferol-3-O-gentiobioside showed significant ABTS (81.09 &amp;plusmn; 0.06) activity, but DPPH activity was lacking. The other flavonoids showed low DPPH activity, but moderate ABTS activity compared with BHT. &lt;strong&gt;Conclusion:&lt;/strong&gt; The results of this study could be useful for correct identification of the plant and further standardization. In addition this study suggesting that the decoction prepared from &lt;em&gt;C. foliosum&lt;/em&gt; could be a potential source of nutraceuticals with radical-scavenging activity.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style=&quot;text-align:justify&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Key words:&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;em&gt;Chenopodium&lt;/em&gt;, phytochemical investigations, flavonoids, DPPH, ABTS.&lt;/p&gt;</style></abstract><issue><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">4</style></issue><work-type><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Research Article</style></work-type><auth-address><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">&lt;p style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Zlatina Kokanova-Nedialkova&lt;sup&gt;*&lt;/sup&gt;, Paraskev T.
