Abstract:The role of polyphenols and flavonoids in prevention of cellular damages carried out with the oxidative stress is well documented. In the present experiment, we determined the polyphenols and flavonoids concentrations of three extracts (ethanol 70%: V/V, methanol 80%: V/V and distilled water extracts) of carob pulp mature (Ceratonia siliqua L.) and their in vitro and in vivo antioxidant activity. A significant dose-dependent anti-free radical activ-ity of ethanolic extract of carob (EEC) was related to the hig… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
