“…Therefore, it might be concluded that the total phenolic content could be used as an index for free radical-scavenging and antioxidant capacity in the Allium extracts. These results, which proved that higher phenolic content could elucidate stronger antioxidant capacity, were consistent with those of other studies [13,15,20,23]. of Ethanolic Extracts from Various Organ Tissues of Allium spp.…”

“…The antioxidant activities measured in the TEAC assay also significantly correlate with the DPPH IC 50 value (r 2 = 0.92), as shown in Figure 3(b). This finding, which indicated that both the DPPH IC 50 value and the TEAC assay could be used simultaneously to determine the antioxidant activities of Allium extracts, is supported by the findings of many other similar experiments [9,14,22,23].…”

The extracts from different tissues of Allium fistulosum L. and Allium sativum L. were investigated to evaluate their antioxidant and antimicrobial capacity. The highest yields of the Allium extracts were prepared from the extraction of 30% ethanol solution. The DPPH scavenging activity was the highest in A. fistulosum L. leaves, which IC 50 is 14.61 μg·mL −1. The highest antioxidant activity using TEAC assay and total phenolic content were observed in A. sativum L. stems and A. fistulosum L. stems, where they are determined to be 15.51 mM and 191.04 mg GAE·g , respectively. The inhibitory activity of various Allium extracts against the test bacteria was greater than that of 10 μg·mL −1 allicin. The results indicated that Allium spp. extracts could be used as a potential source of natural antioxidants and antimicrobial agents.

“…It may also aid in digestion (Gorzalczany et al, 2001). Yerba mate has been recognized for a variety of pharmacological activities, but limited research has been conducted on its antimicrobial properties (Kubo et al, 1993;Hongpattarakere, 2000;Sari et al, 2007;Tsai et al, 2008;Burris et al, 2011).…”

Yerba Mate is a popular tea beverage produced and consumed in the South American countries of Argentina, Brazil, Chile, Paraguay, and Uruguay, and is processed from the leaves and stems of Ilex paraguariensis A. St.-Hil., a perennial shrub from the Aquifoliaceae family. Production occurs in six stages: harvesting older leaves and small stems, roasting by direct fire, drying under hot air, milling to specified size, aging to acquire optimal sensory attributes, and final packaging. While grown and consumed for centuries in South America, its popularity is increasing in the United States because of demand by consumers for healthier, more natural foods, its filling a niche for a different type of tea beverage, and for Yerba Mate's potential health benefits-antimicrobial, antioxidant, antiobesity, anti-diabetic, digestive improvement, stimulant, and cardiovascular properties. Cultivation, production and processing may cause a variation in bioactive compounds biosynthesis and degradation. Recent research has been expanded to its potential use as an antimicrobial, protecting crops and foods against foodborne, human and plant pathogens. Promising results for the use of this botanical in human and animal health has prompted this review. This review focuses on the known chemical composition of Yerba Mate, the effect of cultivation, production and processing may have on composition, along with a specific discussion of those compounds found in Yerba Mate that have antimicrobial properties.

“…It was recently observed that the methanolic extract of GM possessed antimicrobial activity against S. sanguinis (MIC 4 mg/mL) but no inhibitory effect on the growth of S. mutans. 33 According to the present study, the RM water extract inhibited the growth of S. mutans with a MIC value of 16 mg/mL, which was not observed for the GM extract. Similar results were reported for water extracts of rosemary (Rosmarinus officinalis L.) against S. sobrinus (MIC of 16 mg/mL).…”
