Antioxidant and free radical scavenging activities ofrhus coriariaandcinnamomum cassiaextracts

Abstract: Antioxidant and free radical scavenging activities of the extracts of sumac (Rhus coriaria) fruits and cassia (Cinnamomum cassia) cortex were studied. Plant samples were extracted with methanol:water (80:20) and an aliquot of each extract was fractionated using n-hexane and ethyl acetate. Antioxidant activities of n-hexane, ethyl acetate and water fractions were measured using Fe +2 induced linoleic acid-TBA-peroxidation reaction and the Rancimat methods. Free radical scavenging activities of the fractions wer… Show more

“…The results for DPPH scavenging activity of Salvia species examined in this study were inconsistent with that previously reported by Miliauskas et al [29]. Various Salvia species were shown to demonstrate remarkable scavenging activity against DPPH radicals [52][53][54]. In contrast, results from our study showed that Saponaria officinalis, A. pallida and A. glycyphyllos had the lowest DPPH scavenging activity (< 70 μmol TE/g DW).…”

“…The main antioxidant activity of one of the Salvia species (Salvia officinalis L) was reported to be attributed mainly to its phenolic compounds such as carnosic acid, carnasol and rosmarinic acid (Bozan et al, 2002).…”

“…There are a few studies on the antioxidant properties of S. tomentosa accomplished by DPPH method. Bozan et al (2002) stated that S. tomentosa has moderate antioxidant activity in comparison to the other Salvia species. They estimated that S. tomentosa provided almost 17% inhibition in DPPH radicals with 100 g samples, which corresponds to 1.5 mg dw mg -1 DPPH.…”
