Objectives: Antioxidant is a substance such as Vitamin C that able to remove potentially damaging oxidizing agents. Malondialdehyde (MDA) is an important marker of oxidative stress that have correlation with Type 2 diabetes mellitus (DM) progression. Phaseolus vulgaris L (PV) (beans) is one of the alternative medicines to treat DM in Indonesia. We investigated the antioxidant activity of ethanolic extract on PV (EEPV) beans using in vitro and in vivo model.Methods: Antioxidant assay in vitro was conducted using 1,1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) method. Alloxan (120 mg/kg, intraperitoneally)- induced diabetic rats were divided into 5 groups (n=5), i.e., NC: Normal control, P1: Diabetic-control, P2, P3, and P4 (200 mg/kg, 400 mg/kg, and 600 mg/kg of EEPV, orally) for 28 days. MDA serum level was evaluated using spectrophotometer. The data were analyzed by one-way ANOVA test.Results: The antioxidant assay in vitro showed that EEPV has very weak (IC50=641.87 μg/ml, whereas Vitamin C as standard showed very strong activity (IC50=2.95 μg/ml). MDA level were 2.80±0.09 nmol/ml (NC), 3.30±0.42 nmol/ml (P1), 3.27±4.23 nmol/ml (P2), 2.93±0.05 nmol/ml (P3), and 3.17±0.25 nmol/ml (P4). There was no significant differences among normal control, diabetic-control, and EEPV-treated groups (p>0.05).Conclusion: EEPV showed a very weak antioxidant activity in vitro.

Introduction: Diabetes mellitus is an endocrine and metabolic disorder characterized by the defect in insulin secretion or insulin action or both. The association between diabetes mellitus and oxidative stress is well established. Cucurbitaceae is the largest family containing 120 genera mostly grown for its sweet and juicy fruit in warm climates all over the world. In the present work ethanolic extracts of the seeds of Trichosanthes cucumerina Linn (Chichinno), Lagenaria siceraria (Lauka), Cucurbita pepo (Pharsi), Luffa aegiptiaca (Ghiraula), and Benincasa hispida (Kubindo) collected from Western Nepal has been evaluated for their in vitro antioxidant activity and in vivo hypoglycemic effects. Methods: In vitro antioxidant activity was assessed by using DPPH free radical scavenging activities and their IC50 values were calculated. In vivo hypoglycemic effect was examined on normoglycemic rats. The clinical significance of ethanolic extract at the doses of 250 and 500 mg/kg body weight was investigated in 0, 30, 60, 120 and 180 minutes of oral administration. Metformin treated group was used as the positive control. Results: For DPPH radical scavenging action, the IC50 values of Trichosanthes cucumerina, Luffa aegiptiaca, Benincasa  hispida, Cucurbita pepo, Lagenaria siceraria were found to be 60.72, 127.73, 49.63, 98.16 and 52.46 µg/ml respectively which were compared to the IC50 value of ascorbic acid (Positive control) which was found to be 38.11 µg/ml. The extracts of Benincasa hispida, and were having higher antioxidant activity and tested for in vivo hypoglycemic activity.In vivo administration of two doses of ethanolic extract of Lagenaria siceraria reduced the level of blood glucose while the best result was obtained at 250 mg/kg. Conclusions: Present study revealed promising antioxidant and hypoglycemic activity of ethanolic extract of Lagenaria siceraria. The further exploration of Lagenaria siceraria for its effective use in the traditional medicinal system is essential.

AbstractBackgroundDiabetes is the one of the leading cause of morbidity and mortality. Traditionally phytotherapy is widely being used for diabetes treatment and highly valued. Citrus colocynthis has known anti-diabetic potential. However, anti-diabetic potential of hydro-ethanolic extract of C. colocynthis pulpy flesh with seeds is not reported yet.MethodsThe extract of C. colocynthis pulpy flesh with seeds was done by maceration method using 70% ethanol. To evaluate anti-diabetic and antioxidant potential of the seeded fruit in vitro, α-glucosidase and DPPH inhibition assays was done, respectively. In vivo study used streptozotocin (STZ) induced diabetes model of rats. Rats were randomized in five groups i. e. normal control, negative control, standard control, C. colocynthis 150 and 300 mg/kg. STZ was administered to all groups except normal control. After wards, plant extract and glibenclamide is continued for 14 days. Blood samples were collected from rat tail vein daily and from Cardiac puncture at the end of study. The blood glucose levels were monitored daily by using one-touch blood glucose monitoring system. The blood glucose level was monitored on 0, 1st, 5th, 8th, 11th, and 14th day of induction.ResultsHydro-ethanolic extract of C. colocynthis pulpy flesh with seeds was able to decolorize DPPH and therefore possess antioxidant potential, continuous administration for 14 days showed a marked decrease in serum glucose levels (p 0.01) it is found to be somewhat less effective as glibenclamide (standard control) (p 0.001). A time-dependent decrease in blood glucose levels was observed (351.3 ± 4 to 258 m/kg).ConclusionHydro-ethanolic extract of C. colocynthis pulpy flesh with seeds lowered the serum triglyceride and cholesterol levels in diabetic rats significantly as compared to negative control. The hypoglycemic effect of hydro-ethanolic extract of C. colocynthis pulpy flesh with seeds is may be due to α-glucosidase inhibition potential.

Abstract Objectives The common dry bean (Phaseolus vulgaris L.) is a globally produced pulse crop and an important source of protein and micronutrients for millions of people across Latin America and Africa. In these regions, energy for cooking is expensive or scarce and long cooking times deter consumers from purchasing beans. In addition, many of the preferred black and red seed types have phytate and polyphenols that limit the absorption of trace minerals. Yellow beans are unique because their seed coats are rich in kaempferol 3-glucoside, a recently discovered promoter of iron absorption. Several market classes of yellow beans are sold throughout Latin America and Africa, where they are marketed at premium prices for their fast cooking tendencies. Exploring the yellow bean's unique heritage to develop new fast cooking varieties that deliver more absorbable iron would be useful for regions where inhabitants have limited access to fuelwood for cooking. This study compared the iron bioavailability of three fast cooking yellow beans from Africa with contrasting seed coat colors (Manteca, Amarillo, Njano) to slower cooking white and red kidney commercial varieties from North America (Table 1). Methods Cooked beans were formulated into diets with the complementary food crops of potato, rice and cabbage. Iron bioavailability was measured as ferritin formation in an in vitro digestion Caco-2 bioassay and the ability to maintain total body iron hemoglobin (Hb-Fe) during a 6 week in vivo (Gallus gallus) feeding trial. Results Animals fed yellow bean diets had faster growth rates, accumulated more dietary iron and had higher Hb-Fe than animals fed either kidney bean diet (Figure 1). In contrast to yellow beans, the kidney beans had almost no kaempferol 3-glucoside (Table 2). When compared to the other four bean based diets, the fast cooking Manteca yellow bean diet had the highest Caco-2 ferritin formation in vitro (Table 3) and delivered the largest increase in Hb-Fe in vivo (Figure 1). Conclusions Through the added benefit of fast preparation times and improved iron quality after cooking, this study provides evidence that the Manteca market class is worthy of germplasm enhancement as a new convenience food to help alleviate trace mineral deficiencies in regions where beans are widely accepted as a dietary staple.

  The role of polyphenols and flavonoids in prevention of cellular damages carried out with the oxidative stress is well documented. In the present experiment, we determined the polyphenols and flavonoids concentrations of three extracts (ethanol 70%: V/V, methanol 80%: V/V and distilled water extracts) of carob pulp mature (Ceratonia siliqua L.) and their in vitro and in vivo antioxidant activity. A significant dose-dependent anti-free radical activ-ity of ethanolic extract of carob (EEC) was related to the highest polyphenol content (44.74 mg QE/mL) and to the in vitro antioxidant activity (EC50 = 0.28 mg/mL) of this extract. LC-MS /MS analysis of the EEC have shown the presence of several phenolic compounds as well as many types of flavonoids. The in vivo experiment brought out the significant effect of the daily EEC oral pre-treatment of rats, 30 min before AlCl3 administration for 28 d on the improvement of the total blood antioxidant capacity. These results suggest that the carob pulp contain many substances having in vitro and in vivo antioxidant effects, and which could be used as natural food additives in order to preserve food quality.

Background : Nowadays with the appearance of diseases such as cancer, atherosclerosis, free radicals are often singled out. What motivates scientific research in natural antioxidants. Aim/Objective : The aim of this study was to determine the antioxidant activity of the stalks and the fruit of Solanum melongena L. Study Duration : The period of the study was done on 25th July, 2015 at the Department of Pharmacy, Faculty of Medecine, Pharmacy and Odontology, University of Dakar, Senegal. Methodology : Antioxidant activity was evaluated through two methods (DPPH and FRAP). Results : For the FRAP test, at the highest concentration (83.3 µg/ml) the aqueous extract of the fruit (0.90±0.08) has a higher reducing power compared to those of ethanol extracts from the fruit (0.77±0.41) and the stalk (0.85±0.004). These results remain inferior to that of tannic acid (0.95± 0.0005). The DPPH test reveals that the ethanolic extract of the fruit is more effective in reducing the free radical DPPH with an inhibitory concentration 50 (IC 50) equal to 3.37±0.03 μg / ml, followed by the ethanolic extract of the stalks (IC 50 = 4.46±0.24 μg / ml) and finally the aqueous extract of the fruit (IC50 = 9.6±0.026 μg / ml). Conclusion : These results make it possible to confirm the in vitro activity of the parts studied, but in vivo studies are necessary in order to know the acute and chronic toxicities. Finally, perform a bio-guided fractionation to determine the molecules responsible for the antioxidant activity.

A cultura do feijoeiro (Phaseolus vulgaris L.) pode ser afetada por muitas doenças e dentre elas destaca-se a antracnose, causada pelo fungo Colletotrichum lindemuthianum. O acaricida azocyclotin (AZ) foi avaliado in vitro, em plântulas e em condições de campo, quanto ao efeito em C. lindemuthianum. Foram avaliados sete tratamentos in vitro: 1) testemunha; 2) AZ-1 mg L-1; 3) Trifenil hidróxido de estanho (THE)-1 mg L-1; 4) AZ-10 mg L-1; 5) THE-10 mg L-1; 6) AZ-100 mg L-1 e 7) THE-100 mg L-1 e 13 tratamentos in vivo: 1) testemunha; 2) AZ aplicado 24 horas antes da inoculação (AZ-24); 3) THE-24; 4) AZ-48; 5) THE-48; 6) AZ-72; 7) THE-72; 8) AZ-96; 9) THE-96; 10) AZ-120; 11) THE-120; 12) AZ-144 e 13) THE-144. Azocyclotin foi avaliado à dose de 125 g i.a.100 L-1 de água e trifenil hidróxido de estanho a 41,25 g i.a.100 L-1. Os delineamentos experimentais foram inteiramente ao acaso, com cinco repetições. Em condições de campo, foi realizado um experimento com seis tratamentos. Os tratamentos e as doses em g ha-1 de i.a foram: 1) tebuconazole + trifenil hidróxido de estanho (100 + 200); 2) tebuconazole + trifloxystrobin (40 + 100); 3) trifloxystrobin (125); 4) tebuconazole + azocyclotin (100 + 500); 5) azocyclotin (500) e 6) testemunha. O delineamento foi em blocos ao acaso, com quatro repetições. Para a avaliação in vitro foram medidos diâmetros ortogonais do crescimento micelial do fungo em BDA; in vivo e no campo usou-se escala de notas de 1 a 9, sendo 1 = sem sintoma e 9 = igual ou mais de 25% de área foliar afetada. In vitro, o tratamento 7 proporcionou maior inibição do desenvolvimento micelial. Em plântulas, observou-se controle de C. lindemuthianum até 144 horas, pelos dois produtos. Uma nova constatação em campo foi o controle de antracnose pelo acaricida azocyclotin, em que se observou também efeito sobre mancha-angular e mancha-de-alternária. Concluiu-se que o acaricida azocyclotin é eficiente no controle da antracnose do feijoeiro, semelhante ao trifenil hidróxido de estanho.
