Experimental Assessment ofMoringa oleiferaLeaf and Fruit for Its Antistress, Antioxidant, and Scavenging Potential UsingIn VitroandIn VivoAssays

Abstract: We have investigated effect of Moringa oleifera leaf and fruit extracts on markers of oxidative stress, its toxicity evaluation, and correlation with antioxidant properties using in vitro and in vitro assays. The aqueous extract of leaf was able to increase the GSH and reduce MDA level in a concentration-dependent manner. The ethanolic extract of fruit showed highest phenolic content, strong reducing power and free radical scavenging capacity. The antioxidant capacity of ethanolic extract of both fruit and lea… Show more

“…They said that antiulcer and antioxidant properties of the leaves of Moringa Oleifera against gastric ulcer in rats, and result revealed the defense mechanism to lipid peroxides and scavenging endogenous reactive oxygen species production. Luqman et al (2012) discovered variation Antioxidant activities between in vitro and in vivo ethanolic extract of Moringa fruit and leaves in comparison with that of aqueous extract, where aqueous extract showed higher potential in vivo while the ethanolic extract of both fruit and leaf of Moringa was greater in the in vitro condition.…”
