Phenolic profile and antioxidant, anticholinesterase and anti- candida potential evaluation in vitro and in silico studies of Tapirira guianensis Aubl. extracts
Abstract:Polar extracts of Tapirira guianensis Aubl. were prepared for evaluation of biological activities. Identification and quantification of phenolic compounds, antioxidant activity, inhibition of acetylcholinesterase enzyme and antifungal potential were performed in all extracts. High contents of total phenols were detected in the ethanolic and aqueous extracts of the leaves (237.10±5.39 mg EAG/g and 346.46±5.67 mg EAG) respectively. The same extracts had a free radical scavenging potential by both DPPH and ABTS+ … Show more
