The objective of the current study was to evaluate the antioxidant activity and enzyme inhibitory effect of different parts of medlar including fruit, leaf and flower bud by using various in vitro methods, and also determination of total phenolic and flavonoid content in the samples. Ethanol extracts of medlar parts were prepared and their antioxidant activities were determined using 1,1-diphenyl-2-picryl-hydrazil (DPPH•) scavenging and β-carotene bleaching methods. The leaf extract showed the strongest antioxidant activity. DPPHradical scavenging activity was in the order of BHA > leaf > bud > fruit. This ordering was the same for β-carotene bleaching activity, tocopherol > leaf > bud > fruit. The highest total phenolic (60.3 ± 1.69 mg GAE g-1 extract) and flavonoid (14.77 ± 1.15 mg QE g-1 extract) content were determined in leaf extract. For possible antidiabetic effects of extracts, α-amylase and α-glucosidase inhibitory activities were investigated, the bud extract showed the highest inhibition activities among the all extracts.

Euphorbia hirta L (Euphorbiaceae) also called asthma herb has long been prescribed in traditional medicine because it exhibits diverse pharmacological actions due to the presence of alkaloids, flavonoids, polyphenols, triterpenoids, and saponins. The present study is aimed at the study of phytochemical and antioxidant activity and anti-inflammatory screening of E. hirta. Extraction of dried powder was performed followed by phytochemical screening using color reactions. Total phenolic content (TPC) and total flavonoid content (TFC) of the extracts were estimated by Folin-Ciocalteu and Aluminum chloride method respectively. The antioxidant activity was studied by the 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) free radical scavenging method.  Anti-inflammatory activity was studied by using protein denaturation in vitro bioassay. Phytochemical screening showed the presence of flavonoids, alkaloids, and phenolic compounds. TPC, TFC and antioxidant activity (IC50) of the extract were found as 288.10 mg gallic acid equivalent per gram (GAE/g), 29.36 mg quercetin equivalent per gram (QE/g) and 32.23 µg/mL (p<0.05) respectively. Diclofenac sodium and E. hirta extract showed the maximum inhibition of 91.28% and 68.20% respectively at the concentration of 1000 µg/mL compared with control (p>0.05). The phenolic compounds and flavonoids exert antioxidant and anti-inflammatory activities because of their scavenging ability. The demonstrated antioxidant and anti-inflammatory activities may be the rationale behind some of its folkloric uses and also may be responsible for some of its pharmacological effects. Thus, E. hirta can be considered a good source of antioxidants and anti-inflammatory actions, which might be beneficial for combating oxidative stress.

This study was designed to examine the in vitro antioxidant DPPH free radical-scavenging activity, and the total phenolic and flavonoid content of ethanol and methanol extracts of Salvia amplexicaulis Lam. in the whole plant and different parts, leaves, stems and flowers. The largest amounts of extract yield were obtained from the flowers, 14.14% and 12.00 % (w/w) in the ethanol of methanol extracts, respectively. The ethanol extract of leaves (16.07 ?g/ml) and methanol extract of the whole plant (21.28 ?g/ml) showed the highest activity against the DPPH radical. The ethanol extract of the leaves was the richest in phenols (222.40 mg GAE/g) and flavonoids (49.81 mg QE/g), whereas the methanol extract of the whole plant contained the highest amount of phenolics (180.89 mg GAE/g) and flavonoids (38.15 mg QE/g). A very strong linear correlation between antioxidant activity and the phenolic content of the extracts was established. The obtained results suggest that S. amplexicaulis could be regarded as an important source of natural antioxidants.

The present work aimed to determine the phytochemical components and evaluate the in vitro anti-inflammatory and anti-mycobacterial effects of hydroethanolic extracts of Allium sativum L bulbs, Drypetes gossweileri S. MOORE stem-barks and Pentadiplandra brazzeana Baill roots against several resistant strains of Mycobacterium tuberculosis. The phytochemical screenings of extracts were carried out according the colorimetric and precipitation tests to reveal the presence of phytochemical compounds. The anti-inflammatory effects of extracts were evaluated using in vitro Bovine Serum Albumin denaturation and proteinase inhibitory action assays. The inhibitory parameters of hydro-ethanol extracts were evaluated by the microdilution method agaisnt Mycobacterium tuberculosis. The phytochemical screening of hydro-ethanol extracts revealed the presence of phenols, polyphenols, flavonoids, alkaloids, cathechic tannins, triterpens, steroids, anthocyanins and leucoanthocyanins. The anti-inflammatory activity of hydro-ethanol extracts of D. gossweileri, P. brazzeana and A. sativum have shown the inhibitory concentrations 50 (IC50) values ranging from 356.70, 183.30 and 226.30 mg/mL for BSA denaturation and 31.92, 33.62 and 56.93 mg/mL for proteinase inhibitory action respectively. The hydroethanolic extracts of D. gossweileri, P. brazzeana and A. sativum exhibited moderate and weak anti-mycobacterial activities with the minimum inhibitory concentrations (MICs) ranging from 312.5 to 2500 μg/mL. A. sativum hydro-ethanol extract has shown the highest anti-mycobacterial activity with MIC of 312.5 μg/mL against isoniazid resistant of M. tuberculosis and extremely resistant drug strain of M. tuberculosis. These results suggest that hydro-ethanol extracts of A. sativum, D. gossweileri and P. brazzeana are efficient against tuberculosis caused by multi-resistant Mycobacterium tuberculosis strains and are able to resorb the inflammation induced during infection. Keywords: Anti-inflammatory activity, Anti-mycobacterial effect, Hydroethanolic extracts, Medicinal plants, Phytochemical screening.

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.
