“…According to the USDA, the flavonoids contained in cardamom were 0.28% [10]. In the study [11], the flavonoid content in cloves was 337.29 10.59 mg QE/100 g. Clove flowers contain flavonoids of 126.50 mg QE/100 g, higher than the flavonoid content found in clove stems. A similar study stated that the total flavonoid content in cloves was 318.67 0.88 mg QE/g [12].…”

This study was aimed at analyzing the antioxidant capacity of butterfly pea flower herbal syrup with the addition of cardamom, cloves, and ginger. This research was an experimental study with a completely randomized design (CRD). The herbal syrup was made into three different treatments with different ratios of cardamom and cloves in each formula, namely 3:1, 5:3, and 1:1. Antioxidant capacity was analyzed using the DPPH method. The levels of flavonoid, tannin, saponin, kaempferol, quercetin, and gallic acid were also investigated in this study. The results showed that buttefly pea flower herbal syrup with the ratio of cardamom and cloves (1:1) has the highest level of flavonoid (16426.09 mg/L), tannin (3382.50 mg/L), saponin (1354.50 mg/L), kaempferol (1147.82 g/L), quercetin (1658.03 g/L), and gallic acid (4108.75 g/L). These results were in line with the antioxidant capacity of herbal syrup with a ratio of 1:1. The formula has the highest level of antioxidant capacity compared to the other formulas, as indicated by the IC 50 value of 40.777 ppm. Therefore, the more cloves used, the higher the antioxidant capacity of butterfly pea flower herbal syrup.

The current work was designed to undertake a qualitative phytochemical screening of various plant parts of Pistacia palaestina, and estimate antioxidant and wound healing activities for therapeutic applications. The qualitative phytochemical screening of the leaf and the fruit of P. palaestina was performed using different chemical tests. The total phenolic content (TPC), total flavonoid content (TFC), and antioxidant activity were determined by using Folin-Ciocalteu, aluminum chloride, and DPPH (2,2-Diphenyl-1-picryl hydrazyl) methods, respectively. The extracts with the highest TPC and TFC were examined for their wound healing activity using an incision wound model on rats. The qualitative phytochemical screening revealed the presence of phenols, tannins, flavonoids, carbohydrates, saponins, phytosterols, terpenoids, mucilages, and resins, whereas no coumarins, alkaloids, cardiac glycosides, or anthraquinones were found. TPC and TFC were observed between (144.80 ± 8.81 to 489.79 ± 15.09 mg gallic acid equivalent (GAE)/g extract) and (18.34 ± 1.16 to 36.16 ± 1.05 mg rutin equivalent (RUE)/g extract), respectively. Methanolic extracts of leaves and fruits showed high antioxidant activity with IC50 about 5.16 ± 1.22 and 8.21 ± 1.87 μg/mL, respectively, which are slightly higher than ascorbic acid (IC50 = 3.52 ± 0.14 μg/mL). The prepared ointments from methanolic extracts significantly accelerated wound healing compared to a negative control group, as the final time of healing was 8.2 ± 1.30 (fruits), 9.6 ± 1.14 (leaves), 12 ± 1.22 (gentamicin ointment 0.1%) and more than 21 (negative control) days. In conclusion, P. palaestina could be used for the treatment of skin wounds.

Medicinal plants have been used as a source for medicine since ancient times. They have always been at the frontline in all cultures of civilization. They are rich sources of phytochemicals and from these phytochemicals may of the modern medicines are discovered. Achyranthes aspera is an erect perennial herb that comes under the family Amaranthaceae. A. aspera is a bitter plant that consists of secondary metabolites such as alkaloids, saponins, tannins, flavonoids, glycosides, steroids, essential oil and fatty acids that play a significant role in exhibiting increased bioactivity against a variety of diseases. The phytoconstituents are present in various parts of the plant including seeds, roots, shoots and leaves. The main focus of this present review is to highlight the various types of secondary metabolites from A. aspera, which have a great potential for the development of effective therapeutics.
