“…This observation was in agreement with the conclusions of studies on the Indian marigold, conducted by Bhattacharyya et al (2010). They reported that the orange marigold cultivar showed the highest antioxidant values in the DPPH and ABTS assays, and also displayed the same trend for lutein ester content as that observed in our study.…”

Antioxidant activities and total phenolic content (TPC) were analyzed in ethanol extracts of 11 marigold cultivars grown in Thailand. Antioxidant activity assays performed in this study were the 2,2'-azino-bis(3-ethylbenzothiazoline-6-sulphonic acid) (ABTS) radical cation scavenging activity, ferric ion reducing antioxidant power (FRAP), 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) radical scavenging activity, oxygen radical absorbance activity (DRAC), and superoxide anion radical scavenging activity (SRSA) assays. 'Dptiva Drange' showed the best activity in the DRAC assay and in % SRSA, as well as the highest content of lutein (20.59 mg), gallic acid (25.77 mg), and quercetin (12.61 mg) per gram dry marigold petal among the 11 cultivars. Furthermore, 'Dptiva Drange' showed the highest lutein yield per plant, as compared to other cultivars. In contrast, 'Rodeo Gold' showed the highest activity by ABTS testing (0.92 mmol of trolox/g dry sample), as well as an 89.90% inhibition of DPPH. Lutein content showed a positive correlation with TPC and all antioxidant activity assays. In conclusion, 'Dptiva Drange' and 'Rodeo Gold' could be utilized as a good lutein source for functional food products and cosmetics.Keywords: marigold cultivars; antioxidant activity; phytochemical.Practical Application: Two marigold cultivars grown in Thailand showed high antioxidant activity among 11 cultivars tested.

“…Reports have shown that lutein reduced the risk of atherosclerosis by inhibiting autoxidation of cellular lipids and protect against oxidant-induced cell damage [54,55]. At higher doses lutein also restored the inhibited NO production to normal level in L-NAME-induced hypertensive rats [56].…”

Background: Cardiovascular disease is a widespread public health problem and hypertension is one of the major risk factors of it. Tridax procumbens leaf extract is traditionally used in the treatment of hypertension. This study evaluates the effects of T. procumbens extract (TPE) on blood biochemical parameters of N-nitro-L-arginine methyl ester (L-NAME)-induced hypertensive rats. Materials and Methods: Rats were divided randomly into four different treatment groups. Group I received 0.9% NaCl (control), Group II, III, and IV were given a nitric oxide synthase inhibitor (L-NAME) 40 mg/kg/day, orally for 6 weeks to induce hypertension. Groups III and IV were further treated with TPE (100 and 200 mg/kg/day), respectively, in the past 3 weeks of 6 weeks. Blood pressure, morphological variables, histopathology, plasma lipids, lipoproteins, cholesterol levels, hepatic enzymes alanine aminotransferase (ALT), aspartate aminotransferase (AST), and other parameters were analyzed. Results: TPE markedly inhibited the sustenance of L-NAME-induced hypertension. This effect was accompanied by a partial or full amelioration of most of the adverse effects induced by L-NAME, such as: (1) Increases in blood pressure, organs weight indices; (2) hyperlipidemia; (3) increased plasma activity of glutamic-pyruvic transaminase (ALT) and AST; and (4) liver and cardiac histological lesions. Conclusions: This study provides evidence about the antihypertensive effects and end-organ protection of TPE in animal model of hypertension. These effects may be due to one or more constitution in this extract.

“…Caroten oids have vitamin A activity, and they have been shown to have antioxidative properties related to many health benefits as reviewed by Kiokias Gordon (2004) and Jomova and Lutein is an oxygen-containing carotenoid, and like other carotenoids, it has antioxidative proper ties, but it is also associated with eye health (Bhattacharyya et al 2010, Abdel-Aal et al 2013). …”

Marigold (Tagetes erecta) flowers are a rich source of organic solvents. In this study, lutein was extracted from marigold flowers with enzyme extraction without using organic solvents. Extraction produced oil that contained 0.36 mg/ml lutein (present as lutein esters but calculated as free lutein), and the yield was comparable to solvent extraction. The oil containing lutein was used to produce oil mixtures as stabilizers and some emulsions were also s containing lutein were stored in the dark at 20 monitored during storage. Stability of lutein was good in oil (85 emulsions (77-91%) but slightly worse in spray extraction of lutein from marigold flowers is a potential alternative to solvent extraction with comparable efficiency. In addition, there are no solvent residues in showed good stability of lutein in oil or in emulsions stored in the dark at room temperature, and these preparations could be used in different food products.
