FLAVONOIDAL CONTENT OF VANGUERIA INFAUSTA EXTRACT GROWN IN EGYPT: INVESTIGATION OF ITS ANTIOXIDANT ACTIVITY
Journal Title: International Research Journal of Pharmacy (IRJP) - Year 2011, Vol 2, Issue 3
Abstract
Chromatographic purification of methanolic extract of Vangueria infausta leaves grown in Egypt led to isolation of five flavonoids namely luteolin-7-O- rutinoside, apigenin- 7-O- rutinoside, luteolin-4` -O- glucoside, quercetin-3-O-glucoside and quercetin. Also, the extract revealed both free radical (DPPH), H2O2 scavenging activities and reducing power potential as compared to rutin. The extract showed promising activity that may limit free radical and oxidative damage.
