Antioxidant, Antimicrobial and Anti-Inflammatory Activities Valorisation of Methanol Extract of Two Geranium Species Growth in Setif Algeria
Journal Title: International Journal of Pharma Research and Health Sciences - Year 2017, Vol 5, Issue 3
Abstract
The present research reveals the antioxidant, antimicrobial and anti-inflammatory capacities of the methanol extracts of two Geranium species growth in Setif Algeria. The antioxidant properties were evaluated through the ability of the extract to scavenge DPPH (1,1-diphenyl- 2-picrylhydrazyl) radicals, the antimicrobial activity was tested with four bacterial strains and one yeast (Staphylococcus aureus ATCC25923, Escherichia coli ATCC 25922 , Pseudomonas aeruginosa ATCC27853, Bacillus subtilis ATCC6633 and Candida albicans ATCC1024 ) and the anti-inflammatory activity was evaluated with proteins denaturation test. The two species gave an excellent antioxidant power better the standard, an interesting antimicrobial activity but a moderate to low anti-inflammatory effect.
