Herbal products usually have less palatability on their taste even though they are healthy and nutritious. Thus, this study aims to formulate polyherbal carbonated beverages, followed by the evaluation of sensory, physicochemical properties and their compliances with the halalan thoyyiban principle. Five formulations were prepared by varying the amount of water and polyherbal extracts that were designated using Design Expert 6.0.4 software. The most accepted formulation was formulation 1 (F1), containing 12.50% polyherbal extract and 87.50% water. F1 was characterised for its physicochemical properties, including carbon dioxide volume, pH, and total acidity, with 3.0 g/L, 4.5, and 1.7 %, respectively, and these findings have complied with the halalan thoyyiban principle. The antioxidant properties were evaluated by using 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH), ferric reducing antioxidant potential (FRAP), as well as total phenolic content (TPC), and it exhibited 1.25 mg GAE/mL,1.08 mM Fe (II) and 0.39 mg GAE/mL respectively. Eight Halal Control Point (HCP) were identified along with the production. Moreover, the beverage was found to have antioxidant properties and nutritional content (carbohydrate (0.3%) and energy content (2.0 kcal/100g)), which can give health benefits to the consumer and proven safe for consumption (LC50 =1066.60 μg/ mL). To conclude, the formulated polyherbal carbonated beverage is accepted by the consumer and complies with the halalan thoyyiban principle.

This study aimed to determine and compare the proximate composition, sugars content and antioxidant properties of selected Malaysian raw honey (Tualang, Gelam, Kelulut, Wild, and Pineapple) with Manuka honey. Proximate analysis (energy, carbohydrate, protein, fat, ash, moisture and total dietary fibre), sugar analysis (fructose, sucrose, glucose and maltose), total phenolic content (TPC) and antioxidant analysis (DPPH radical scavenging activity and linoleic acid oxidation assay) were conducted on the honey samples. The proximate analysis and sugar analysis results for all honeys were within Codex Alimentarius Commission guidelines. In general, Malaysian honeys exhibited lower level of carbohydrates (80.27% to 82.32%), energy (324.18 kcal/100 g to 331.20 kcal/100 g), ash (0.17% to 0.28%) and protein (0.24% to 0.26%, except for Gelam 0.45%) but higher in moisture (17.07% to 19.08%) and fat (0.10% to 0.36%) contents compared to Manuka honey. No significance differences (P>0.05) was detected in total sugar among the honey samples. Overall, among the selected honeys, Kelulut honey has the highest energy content, lowest moisture level, fat content and fructose level. Meanwhile, Wild honey showed the highest phenolic content and antioxidant activities.

Objective: The present study has been carried out to evaluate the diuretic and antioxidant properties of pine herb in an animal model. Materials and Methods: 45 adult male rats were randomly divided into nine groups including: groups I (the negative control), groups II (positive control, furosemide 10 mg/kg), groups III to VIII (treatment groups received 100, 200, 400 mg/kg of the aqueous extracts of bark and fruit) and group IX received the combination of aqueous extract of bark (100 mg/kg) and the fruit (100 mg/kg). The urine output, glomerular filtration rate (GFR), electrolytes, urea, and creatinine levels were evaluated . Furthermore, the phenolic content and antioxidant activity of both extracts were also assessed using 2, 2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH), ferric reducing antioxidant power (FRAP) and Folin–Ciocalteu methods. Results: The aqueous extracts of the pine bark and fruit increased the urinary output in a dose-dependent manner. The combination of the two extracts compared to the other extracts alone significantly increased the serum potassium level. This study also showed each extract increase creatinine clearance in a dose-dependent manner (p<0.01 and p<0.05). The increase of GFR in the combination group was not significant. The current data showed a significant increase in the total phenolic content in pine bark extract in compared with the fruit extract. Conclusion: The pine bark and fruit can be useful in the prevention and treatment of kidney stones due to the high antioxidant activity.

Avocado has become fashionable due to its great organoleptic and nutritional properties. It is consumed as a fresh product and it is also processed to obtain salad oil and guacamole. In all cases, the only usable portion is the pulp. Therefore, to be a more sustainable and profitable agribusiness, it is important to recognize which compounds from the peel and the stone waste can be converted into valuable bio-products. Therefore, their chemical composition was determined according to the National Renewable Energy Laboratory, the total phenolic content by the Folin-Ciocalteu method and the antioxidant properties by the FRAP and TEAC assays. The main components of the peel and stone were acid-insoluble lignin (35.0% and 15.3%, respectively), polymeric sugars (23.6% and 43.9%, respectively), and the aqueous extractives (15.5% and 16.9%, respectively). Both biomasses contain lipids and protein, but a minor proportion (<6%). The valorization of lignin and sugars is of interest given the high content; stones are a rich source of glucose (93.2% of the polymeric fraction), which could be used to obtain biofuels or derivatives of interest. The extractive fraction of the peel contained the highest number of phenolic compounds (4.7 g/100 g biomass), mainly concentrated in the aqueous fraction (i.e., 87%) compared to the ethanol one, which was subsequently extracted. It correlated with major antioxidant activity and, therefore, the peel can be applied to obtain antioxidants and water can be used as an environmentally friendly extraction solvent.

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.

In this study the effect of pollen source (mesquite and catclaw) on the sensory characteristics (appearance, color, aroma, taste, consistency and visible impurities), and physicochemical properties of raw propolis, and the phenolic content and biological activities of propolis extracts (PEs) was determined. The phenolic composition of PEs was determined by the total phenolic (TPC), flavone and flavonol (FFC), and flavanone and dihydroflavonol content (FDC). The individual phenolic components were analyzed by HPLC-DAD. The antioxidant activity was determined by the ferric-reducing power (FRAP) and free-radical scavenging activity (FRS). The antibacterial activity was evaluated against Gram-positive (Staphylococcus aureus and Listeria innocua) and Gram-negative (Echerichia coli and Salmonella thyphimurium) bacteria. The results showed that sensory characteristic and physicochemical properties of mesquite and catclaw propolis complied with international quality regulations. Fifteen phenolic compounds were identified, of which pinocembrin, naringenin, galangin, chrysin and quercetin were found a high concentration (> 3 mg/g). Mesquite propolis had the highest phenolic content (TFC and FDC), as well as antioxidant activity (> 2.5 mg Fe (II) equivalent/g; > 40% of DPPH radical inhibition) and antibacterial activity against Gram-positive bacterias in the order S. aureus > L. innocua (> 50% of inhibition for both bacterias at 500 µg/mL). These results indicating that pollen source affect the sensory characteristics and physicochemical properties of propolis, as well as the biological activity of their extracts.

Polyphenols are valuable group of phytoconstituents due to their high antioxidant activity and healing properties. Antioxidant properties of sages are attributed mainly to a high level of phenolic compounds. The aim of the present study was to elaborate an analytical procedure for the evaluation of the content of secondary metabolites of the polyphenol nature in the herb of Clary Sage (Salvia sclarea L.). Four crude extracts of Salvia sclarea herb obtained with different technologies were used to develop an analytical procedure for the total phenolic content (TPC) assay by spectrophotometric method. The optimum conditions for the analysis (time of the reaction, wavelength, and reference substances) were chosen and experimentally justified (60–80 min, 760 nm, gallic acid and rutin, respectively). Under these conditions, the developed analytical procedure is robust in the indicated time and easy for performing in phytochemical or technological laboratories. The yield of TPC from the herb of Salvia sclarea was the highest in the extracts prepared by heating at a temperature of 36–46 °C and with using the ultrasonic bath. TPC was the highest in the extract in which solvent-to-herb ratio was the least (10:1) and particle size was in the range of 2–5 mm. As a result of the studies, the analytical procedure of the determination of TPC was developed and its parameters were justified. This methodology complies with the requirements for pharmaceutical analysis to ensure the reliability of results during pharmaceutical development and routine control of Salvia sclarea extracts.

The aim of the study was to characterize antioxidative properties and antiradical activity of the herbal syrups collection in Latvia. Spectrophotometry was used to characterize antioxidant properties of herbal syrups. Antiradical activity, total phenols and content of flavonoids were determined spectrophotometrically. The antiradical scavenging activity was measured by the DPPH (2.2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl) reaction. The herbal syrups antiradical scavenging activity was estimated by the amount of DPPH of reagent using in reaction with a sample of vegetable syrup (in percent) and by Trolox equivalent. The total phenolic compounds were determined by using the Folin – Ciocalteu method. The total phenolic content was expressed in mg of the gallic acid equivalents. The content of flavonoids was determined by using reaction between the AlCl3 and flavonoids. Antiradical scavenging activity by Trolox equivalent of the herbal syrups was found from 81 to be 130 mg 100 g-1 herbal syrups. The content of total phenols was found from 22 to be 282 mg GAE 100 g-1, but content of total flavonoids by quercetin equivalent was found from 1 to 44 mg QE 100 g-1. In case of increased disease problems, syrups with increased antioxidant content should be used. However, the specificity of each disease should be taken into account as well as the content of certain compounds in the plants.
