Resume |
The antiradical potential of Lippia multiflora evaluated by the DPPH radical method reveals that the
hydroethanolic extract has a higher antioxidant capacity (957.90 ± 2.42 mmolEAA / mg) than the
aqueous extract (489.35 ± 11.29 mmol EAA / mg) against 14.43 mg / mL for ascorbic acid used as
reference antioxidant. The contents of the phenolic compound extracts have been determined and vary
according to the extract. These values are between
be
104.68-957.90%
957.90% for total phenols, 0.038
0.038-0.338%
for flavonoids and 0.002-0.031%
0.002 0.031% for condensed tannins. The hydroethanolic extract has high levels of
these metabolites irrespective of the area of origin of the plant, which would justify their strong an
anti-radical activity |
