Evaluation of Antioxidant and Antibacterial Potential of Alkaloids Fraction of Newboulda Laevis Leaf
Category: Medical and Clinical PracticeThe alkaloid leaf fraction of Newbouldia laevis, a plant widely used in traditional medicine for wound healing and infection control, was evaluated for its antioxidant and antibacterial activities alongside molecular docking analysis to predict possible mechanisms of action. Antioxidant capacity was assessed using hydroxyl radical, nitric oxide, DPPH radical scavenging, and lipid peroxidation inhibition assays. Antibacterial activity was tested against Staphylococcus aureus, Salmonella typhi,...

Category: Medical and Clinical PracticeThis study evaluated the phytochemical composition and antioxidant potential of Syzygium aromaticum (clove) extract. Total phenolic content (TPC), total flavonoid content (TFC), and in vitro antioxidant activities, including DPPH, ferric reducing antioxidant power (FRAP), nitric oxide (NO), and hydroxyl radical scavenging assays, were determined. The extract exhibited high phytochemical content, with TPC of 328.70 mg gallic acid equivalents (GAE)/g extract and TFC of 262.80 mg quercetin...
