Viburnum mullaha (Buch.-Ham. Ex D. Don), is an underexplored wild edible fruit of Indian Himalayan region, analyzed for total polyphenol contents, antioxidant, anti-elastase, anti-collagenase, and anti-tyrosinase activities using in vitro assays. High values of total phenolic contents of 1257 ± 40 mg gallic acid equivalents/ 100 g fruit weight and total flavonoid contents of 3501 ± 203 mg catechin equivalents/100 g fruit weight were observed. V. mullaha fruit extracts showed outstanding antioxidant activities (ABTS + , 1,1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl, superoxide anion, linoleate peroxyl radicals scavenging, and ferric reducing activities) and remarkable anti-elastase, anti-collagenase, and anti-tyrosinase activities. High resolution liquid chromatography-mass spectroscopy analysis revealed presence of 15 phenolic compounds, namely, chlorogenic acid, acetyl salicylic acid, dihydrorobinetin, dihydromyricetin, 2-isoprenylemodin, rutin, cosmosiin hexaacetate, pectolinarin, dihydroquercetin, eriodictyol, iriginol hexaacetate, theaflavin, epicatechin-pentaacetate, lomatin, and peucenin in fruit extracts. This study recommends utilization of V. mullaha fruit as functional food with prospective pharmaceutical, nutraceutical, and cosmeceutical properties. ARTICLE HISTORY

“…As in our study, the highest results for TFC and TPC have been obtained in acetone extracts. Saini et al (2013) evaluated antioxidant properties in four different solvent systems specifically 80% methanol, acidic-methanol, acetone, and acidic-acetone. When the antioxidant test results were examined (TPC, TFC, DPPH radical scavenging activity, ABTS radical scavenging activity), the highest results in all assays were obtained in acidic acetone extracts.…”

In this paper, antioxidant activity of strawberries extracted with different solvents was investigated since they are consumed by people due to their anticancer, anti-atherosclerotic, anti-inflammatory and anti-neurodegenerative properties. For this purpose, different acidified extraction solvents such as water (ES1), acetone (ES2), acetonitrile (ES3), methanol (ES4) and ethanol (ES5) were used in extraction process of strawberries. The effects of different extraction solvents on the antioxidant activity were evaluated by measuring the reducing power, 2,2′-azino-bis(3ethylbenzothiazoline-6-sulfonic acid (ABTS) radical scavenging activity, 1,1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) radical scavenging activity, total flavonoid content (TFC) and total phenolic content (TPC). Experimental results indicated that the obtained data varied with different extraction solvents. All antioxidant activity assay results showed that the highest results were obtained with acetone extracts.

“…The acetone extract of M. esculenta fruit, which contained highest amount of phenolic compounds showed highest DPPH radical scavenging activity [89] . On the other side, the acid acetone extract of fruit had proved much higher DPPH radical scavenging activity and ferric reducing ability than acetone extract of fruit [82] . In another comparative study on methanol extracts of wild edible fruits of same species collected from three different regions of Uttrakhand (India) showed variation in DPPH antioxidant activity and Fe 2+ chelating activity maximum up to 96.98±0.1847 and 72.17±0.2367 %, repectively due to variation in phenolic and flavonoids content affected by various biological factors of natural climates [74] .…”

“…Preclinical studies have shown that acetone and acidmethanol extracts of M. esculenta fruits showed potent anticancer proliferative activities resulted in 70-92 % reduction in the viability of C 33 A, SiHa, and HeLa cancer cells while exhibiting no cytotoxicity towards normal transformed cell lines [82] . The methanol extract of fruit showed moderate anticancer activity leading to 50, 48.29 and 46.19 % inhibition of Hep G2, Hela and MDA-MB-231 cancer cell lines at concentration 5 mg/ml in methylthiazolyltetrazolium (MTT) assay.…”

Myrica esculenta (Myricaceae) commonly known as box berry or kaphal is an important Indian medicinal plant. It is found in foothill tracks of Eastern Himalayas, Meghalaya, Nepal, China and Pakistan. Local tribes mainly use its fruits to prepare pickle and refreshing drinks. Traditionally, the bark has been used for the treatment of cough, asthma, fever, chronic bronchitis, diarrhoea, rheumatism and inflammation; roots have been used in bronchitis, asthma, cholera and flowers claimed to treat earache, diarrhoea, paralysis. Phytochemical studies of the different parts of plant revealed the presence of various bioactive phytoconstituents such as phenolic compounds, alkaloids, glycosides, triterpenoids and volatile oils. The plant is also reported to have innumerable significant pharmacological activities like analgesic, anxiolytic, antiallergic, antidiabetic, antimicrobial, antihypertensive, antiulcer, antioxidant and antiinflammatory evaluated by using various animal models. The objective of the present review article is to compile all the relevant published information regarding traditional uses, phytochemistry and therapeutic potential of M. esculenta. For this purpose various databases and books were examined. The review clearly demonstrates the importance of this plant in ethnomedicine and its immense potential in modern medicine.
