Abstract:The purpose of this in vitro study was to identify the secondary metabolites and to evaluate the antimicrobial activity, cytotoxicity, antioxidant capacity, and effect on metalloproteinases (MMPs) activity of two Brazilian propolis samples. The extracts of brown (BP) and green (GP) propolis were obtained by rotoevaporation. Phenolic compounds, flavonoids and coumarins were identified by colorimetric methods and determined by spectrophotometry. The minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) of BP and GP against Can… Show more
