Abstract:Objective: This study was aimed to isolate and investigate antioxidant activity of gallic acid in pods of jiringa (Archidendron jiringa [Jack] I.C. Nielsen).Methods: Pods of jiringa were extracted by maceration. Phenolic compounds were tested using FeCl3. Identification of pure compound was obtained from spectra data from nuclear magnetic resonance of proton H (1H NMR), NMR of carbon (13C NMR), infra-red, and mass spectrometry. Antioxidant activity was investigated using 1,1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl method.Re… 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.
