Background: Bekulfruit from Northern region (Buleleng regency), Bali, Indonesia, is commonly consumed fresh in the island of Bali or processed as local delicacy and used as part of religious offerings. Up to date, there is no data regarding the taxonomy, phytochemical composition, and antioxidant properties of this Balinese fruit.This study was aimed to investigate total phenolic content, tannin content and antioxidant activity of the ethanol extract of bekul fruit obtained from Banjar district, Buleleng regency, Bali. Methods: Total phenolic compound was quantified in terms of gallic acid equivalent (GAE) by using Folin-Ciocalteu method, mean while tannin content was determined in terms of tannic acid equivalent (TAE). IC50of the extract was determined using DPPH assay, and subsequently used in the calculation of antioxidant activity index (AAI) using the formula of Scherer and Godoy (2009). Results: Bekul plant was revealed as Ziziphusjujuba Mill. Total phenolic and tannin content of the extract was 29.48 mg/100 g GAE and 91.06 mg/100 g TAE, respectively. Thevalue of IC50was 77.40 mg/ml, with antioxidant activity index (AAI) of 50.94. Conclusion:Ethanol extract of bekul (Ziziphusjujuba Mill.) fruit contains phenolic and tannin compounds. This extract is found to scavenge free radicals and possess very strong antioxidant activityin vitro. Taken together, these findings lead to the notion that bekul fruit from Northern region of Bali, Indonesia, is a promising pharma food

Antioxidants can neutralize free radicals that can affect biological systems in the body that can cause degenerative diseases. Antibacterial active molecules have been identified from plants, and these chemicals are being utilized to develop new and promising treatments. The Mobe plant (Artocarpus lacucha Buch-Ham.) is a species of Artocarpus member of the Moraceae family. Includes a high proportion of phenolic compounds (flavonoids and phenolic acid). This research obtained to know about the biological activity of Artocarpus lacucha Buch-Ham and their total flavonoid and total phenolic content. The extract was prepared using the soxhletation technique using ethanol as the solvent. Antibacterial activity was determined using minimum inhibitor concentration. Propionibacterium acne can be inhibited at concentrations ranging from 300 ppm to 25 ppm. The DPPH technique was used to assess antioxidant activity. The samples’ total flavonoid and phenolic content were measured colorimetrically. The DPPH test revealed an antioxidant activity of 23.33 g/mL, which was used to compute the IC50. The extract’s total phenolic (117.44 mg GAE/g) and flavonoid (3.54 mg QE/g) content were determined to be high.


The aim of this study was to find out phytochemical classes present in various extracts of Stylochiton borumensis and to determine the total phenolic, flavonoids and tannins content in different plant extracts. Total phenols, flavonoids and tannins content was determined by folin-ciocalteu assay, aluminum chloride colorimetric assay and ferric chloride colorimetric assay respectively. Different extracts of S. Borumensis showed the presence of alkaloids, sterols/ triterpenoid, flavonoids, tannins and coumarins. The phenolic, flavonoids and tannins contents of plant extracts using gallic acid (Y= 0.0007x + 0.1078, r² = 0.9997), quercetin (Y= 0.0007x + 0.053, r²= 0.9984) and tannic acid (Y= 0.0009x + 0.043) as standards. The total phenolic content ranged from 460 to 530 mg/g gallic acid equivalent in leaves and from 240 to 520 mg/1 gallic acid equivalent in roots. The total flavonoids content was ranged from 140.870 to 360.750 mg/1 quercetin equivalent in leaves and from 138.678 to 357.670 mg/1 quercetin equivalent in roots. The total tannins contents ranged from 210 to 300 mg/l tannic acid equivalent in leaves and 190 to 270 mg/1 tannic acid equivalent in roots. The study showed significant amount of gallic acid, quercetin and tannic acid equivalents were present in S.Borumensis extracts which may responsible for valuable pharmacological property of the plant.

Plant natural products have a long history of being a rich source of neuroactive drugs.The total phenolic and flavonoid content, and antioxidant activity of ethanol, chloroform and aqueous extracts of AlgerianMedicagoSativaL, leaves were measured to discover new potential sources of Algerian natural antioxidants and neuroactives. All extracts were non-neurotoxic up to 1 mg/ ml for 24 h exposure. The total phenolcontent of M.Sativa extracts ranged between 38 and 69 mg GAE per g extracts. All of the extracts displayed antioxidant capacityassessed by two methods, but at different levels depending on the concentration and the extraction solvent used. The overall antioxidant potency was in the order water > chloroform> ethanol extracts, and the phenolic content exhibited a positive correlation with the antioxidant activity of M. Sativa extracts.Despite a weaker antioxidant activity, the ethanol extract elicited a calcium spike and suppressed the KCl-induced depolarisation response in neurons, indicating effect on ligand-and/or voltage gated calcium channels. In contrast, the chloroform and water extractsdisplayed no apparent direct functional effects. In conclusion, the antioxidant and functional properties related to phenolic content of Algerian Medicago Sativa L. in water and ethanol extracts, respectively.

Objective: The present study was designed to study the effect of supplementing Silybum marianum cultures with different combinations and concentrations of growth regulators on the total phenolic content and the antioxidant activity of the produced cultures.Methods: The total polyphenolic content of 23 extracts of calli was calculated as µg of gallic acid/mg of dry weight extract (DWE) using Folin–Ciocalteu reagent. The antioxidant activity was calculated as trolox equivalent antioxidant capacity using 1,1-Diphenyl-2-picryl-hydrazyl (DPPH) assay for extracts containing more than 10 µg gallic acid/mg DWE.Results: Most of the combinations showed an increase in the total polyphenolic concentration compared to the wild plant. However, cultures grown on media supplemented with combinations of benzyl aminopurine (BAP) and gebberellic acid (Gb), adenine (Ad) and kinetin (Kin), BAP and indole acetic acid (IAA) possessed the highest total polyphenolic contents 20.5, 13.09 and 12.15 µg gallic acid/mg DWE, respectively. However, only (BAP+Gb), (BAP+1-Naphthaleneacetic acid (NAA), IAA, kin and (BAP+Ad) showed a significant increase in the antioxidant activity calculated as trolox equivalent with 2.65, 1.56, 1.56, 1.35 and 1.22 folds increase over the wild plant, respectively.Conclusion: The results obtained clearly indicated that changing the growth regulator system of Silybum marianum cultures serves as an easy and reliable method for increasing the total phenolic content and the antioxidant activity of cultures.
