Tyrosinase Inhibition, 2,2-Diphenyl-1-Picrylhydrazyl Radical Scavenging Activity, and Phytochemical Screening of Fractions and Ethanol Extract From Leaves and Stem Bark of Matoa (Pometia Pinnata)

Abstract: Objective: This study aims to investigate the potency of matoa as a tyrosinase inhibitor and antioxidant and also to identify the chemical compounds in the most active fraction and an ethanol extract from the leaves and stem bark of matoa.Methods: The extracts were tested for their tyrosinase inhibitory activity by evaluating the formation of L-dopachrome at 490 nm. Antioxidant activity was tested using the 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) method. The most active extract from liquid-liquid partition analys… Show more

“…Furthermore, quercetin glucoside, with an IC 50 value of 1.9 mM, inhibited tyrosinase more effectively than the positive standard, kojic acid. [173][174][175][176][177][178] Jamshaid et al, 85 synthesized some 3-hydroxyavone derivatives and tested their TI potential against mushroom tyrosinase (Table 13). Fascinatingly, the test analogs 2-(3- on the ability of a 'S' atom to coordinate with the dinuclear Cu 2+ in the enzyme's active site.…”

“…Kojic acid is produced biologically by various microorganisms, including species of Aspergillus and Penicillium, and involves aerobic fermentation using various substrates. Kojic acid-producing microorganisms, such as Aspergillus oryzae, Aspergillus flavus, Aspergillus tamarii, and Aspergillus parasiticus are reported to produce high levels of kojic acid [1][2][3][4][5].…”
