The aim of this study was to investigate and compare Mirabilis jalab L. extracts obtained in ultrasonic condition with different water/methanol and water/ethanol extraction mixture acidified with 0.1% HCl. The extracts were analyzed for monomeric anthocyanins contents and antioxidant activities. The highest anthocyanins content (3197.8 mg/L) and best antioxidant activity were obtained for Mirabilis jalab extract with 100% ethanol. Also, there is a good correlations between antioxidant activity (R 2 = 0.9332 and 0.9712) for water/ethanol and methanol series extracts respectively.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
