Phytochemical analysis and comprehensive evaluation of pharmacological potential of Artemisia brevifolia Wall. ex DC

Exploring the Artemisia Genus: An Insight into the Phytochemical and Multi-Biological Potential of A. campestris subsp. lednicensis (Spreng.) Greuter & Raab-Straube

“…lednicensis . Consistent with our results, several investigators have shown the efficacy of polar solvents for preparing extracts from Artemisia plants [ 19 , 20 ]. In addition, the alcohol–water mixture showed synergistic effects for the extraction of phenolics and flavonoids in several studies [ 21 , 22 ].…”

Ultrasound-assisted extraction of emodin from Rheum officinale Baill and its antibacterial mechanism against Streptococcus suis based on CcpA

“…Subsequently, 0.5 g of fruit powder was fully mixed with a certain amount of solution, and the mixture was placed in an ultrasonic homogenizer (JY92-2D, Xinzhi Bio-Sciences Co. Ltd., Ningbo, China) with a frequency of 20 kHz at 25 °C. By consulting literature, three liquids (water, methanol and ethanol aqueous solutions (83 %, v / v ) were selected as extraction solvents, and the suitable extraction solvent was determined through the comparison of yield, dynamic simulation analysis and scanning electron microscope (SEM) observation [35] , [36] , [37] , [38] . The effects of ultrasound treatment on the R. officinale powders were observed on a scanning electron microscope (SU8010, Hitachi, Japan).…”

Investigation of antioxidant and antibacterial effects of citrus fruits peels extracts using different extracting agents: Phytochemical analysis with in silico studies

“…The free radical scavenging activity was calculated using methanol solution of DPPH [ [24] , [25] , [26] ]. Methanolic solution (1.0 mL) of DPPH was mixed with 10 μL of extract that was previously dissolved in DMSO at a concentration of 4 mg/mL.…”

“…The extracts' reducing capacity was assessed using a common potassium ferricyanide colorimetric test [ 24 , 25 ]. 2.5 mL of the extract samples (4 mg/mL DMSO) were combined with 2.5 mL of each of the phosphate buffer (pH 6.6, 0.2 M) and 1% (w/v) K 3 [Fe(CN) 6 ] and then the incubation of mixture was done at 50 ° C for 20 min, after this 2.5 mL of 10% (w/v) CCl 3 COOH was added.…”

“…Disc diffusion method with minor modifications was employed to test the antibacterial activity of extracts against four bacterial strains [ 24 , 27 , 28 ]. For the said purpose, 2 g negative ( Escherichia coli ATCC 25922, Pseudomonas aeruginosa ATCC 27853) and 2 g positive ( Staphylococcus aureus ATCC 25923, Bacillus subtilis ATCC 6051) bacteria were employed.…”
