“…For example, the abundance of C-glycoside flavonoids in B. australis extract provides additional information to further knowledge on its intergeneric relationship within the genus Brachychiton. Our previous chemotaxonomic investigation going on the five Brachychiton species growing cultivated in Egypt reported the absence of such compounds in B. populneus [4]. Besides, the richness of phenolic acid derivatives in the present study was characterized for B. discolor among the Brachychiton species.…”

derivatives. 10,11 Type II diabetes mellitus (DM) incidence is rising globally and considered one of the major human health worries. Thus, intervention before the appearance of disease through edible vegetables may help in prevention and controlling its complications. 12 Oxidative stress and free radical formation intensively upswing in diabetes. 13 Accumulation of reactive oxygen species (ROS) due to hyperglycemia causes DNA damage and results in mutagenicity of bone marrow and sperms. 14 Potential antigenotoxicity was achieved by medicinal plants via their phenolic constituents through several mechanisms including their antioxidative stress effect. 15 No study has been carried out on the spectrometric analysis, in vivo anti-diabetic effect and antimutagenic evaluation of M. indicus. Therefore, the present study aims to identify and profiling the phytoconstituents of M. indicus extracts using GC-MS and LC-ESI-MS techniques. Also, their antioxidant, antidiabetic and antimutagenic effects in alloxan induced diabetic rats were evaluated Material and Methods Plant material and extractionThe whole plants of M. indicus were freshly collected on 14 February 2016 as weeds of cultivation, 6 th October City, Giza, Egypt. The plant sample was authenticated by Prof. Dr. M. M. Marzouk and the voucher specimen (N2_14216) was prepared and has been deposited in the herbarium of National Research Centre. The air-dried plant sample (056 g) was ground and extracted with 70% MeOH/H2O then 50% MeOH/H2O for several times till exhaustion, at room temperature.

“…Sterculia diversifolia is known as Brachychiton or kurrajong [ 1 , 2 ]. Numerous uses for the tree and its parts have been reported, including roasted seeds as coffee substitutes; many of its parts are also consumed as food sources in areas of Australia, and fodder for animals in times of drought [ 3 ]. The plant, which varies in size from being a small shrub to up to 20 m in height, was introduced in Jordan and is an attractive ornamental tree along roadsides.…”

Sterculia diversifolia, widely distributed in Jordan as an ornamental plant, is a synonoum for Brachychiton populneus. Phytochemical studies examining the volatile chemicals in Sterculia diversifolia leaves are limited, despite the rising demand for their numerous applications. Furthermore, it was only recently that a report described the friendly synthesis of silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) using aqueous extract derived from Brachychiton populneus leaves. Therefore, AgNPs were produced using either aqueous plant extracts (AgWPE) or ethanolic plant extracts (AgEPE), and Shimadzu GC-MS equipment was used to detect volatile compounds in the ethanolic leaf extracts. GC-MS profile of leaf ethanolic extracts of the Jordanian chemotypes of S. diversifolia revealed the existence of major components: (3β)-Lup-20(29)-en-3-ol acetate (30.97%) and 1-octadecyne (24.88). Other compounds are squalene (7.19%), germanicol (6.23), dl-α-tocopherol (5.24), heptacosane (4.41), phytol (3.54) and pentacosane (2.89). According to published studies, these reported chemicals have numerous uses, including as animal feed, vitamin precursors, possible eco-friendly herbicides, antioxidants, and anti-inflammatory agents. Aqueous extracts of S. diversifolia leaves had total phenolic of 5.33 mg GAE/g extract and flavonoid contents of 64.88 mg QE/g extract, respectively. The results indicated the contribution of phenolic and flavonoids to this plant’s anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties. The reduction in AgNO3 to AgNPs using S. diversifolia leaf extracts was confirmed by the change in solution color from colorless to dark black. Further characterization was attempted by X-ray diffraction, Malvern zeta-sizer and scanning electron microscope. The efficacy of synthesized Ag nanoparticles using aqueous or ethanolic plant extract of S. diversifolia against the Gram-negative bacteria Escherichia coli and Gram-positive bacteria Staphylococcus aureus showed appreciable activity at 25 µg/mL concentration compared to the source plant extracts.
