Abstract:The scavenger properties of some flavonoidic vegetal extracts obtained from Crataegus monogyna Jacq have been studied using the chemiluminescence technique and ex vivo lipid peroxidation assay. A correlation between antioxidant activity and phenolic/flavonoidic content was observed for all the seven extracts, and a parallel behaviour with the antioxidant activity determinated by ex vivo lipid peroxidation assay and in vitro chemiluminescence tests was also noted.
scite is a Brooklyn-based startup 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 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.
