Antioxidant activities, polyphenol, flavonoid, and amino acid contents in peanut shell

Antioxidant and anti-inflammatory potentials of Solanum pubescens Willd an ethnomedicinal plant of South Western Andhra Pradesh, India

“…Furthermore, the study demonstrated unaltered body weight among the extract treated groups compared to control animals showing the nontoxic nature of the S. pubescens extracts. It is noteworthy that the observed anti-inflammatory properties of S. pubescens fruit and stem extracts for both acute and chronic inflammatory models is credited to defensive ability of phytochemicals present essentially flavonoids and its derivatives [10,[12][13][14][15][16]22], most likely regulate through antioxidation action, and proinflammatory molecules production [8,16,[23][24][25]. In addition, the current investigations approves the S. pubescens as potential source of anti-inflammatory agents among Solanum genus as the S. pubescens hexane and chloroform extracts at 200mg/kg demonstrated remarkable activity when compared with the plants like S. aethiopimcum, S. xanthocarpum, S. scabrum and S. lycopersicum have been therapeutically explored for their anti-inflammatory potentials [26,[27][28][29].…”

“…Our former phytochemical investigations revealed the existence of has revealed that oils & fats, alkaloids, flavonoids, carbohydrates, saponins, coumarins and phenolics in fruits and stems extracts [10] and Kumari et al, characterized the noval phytochemicals like kaermpferol-3,7,4'-trimethyl ether, quercetin-3,7,3',4'-tetramethyl ether, quercetin-3,7,3'-trimethyl ether, quercetin-3,7,4'-trimethyl ether, kaempferol-3,7-dimethyl ether, kaempferol-3,4'-dimethyl ether, myricetin-3,7,3',5'-tetrarnethyl ether. Similarly, quercetin-3,3',4'-trimethyl ether, quercetin-3,3'-dimethyl ether, kaempferol, myricetin-3,7,3'trimethyl ether, glucoside, kaempferol-3-O-rutinoside, Myricetin methyl ethers 3,7,3',5'-Tetramethoxy-5,4'dlhydroxyflavone and a novel flavonol 3,7,3'-trimethoxy-5,4',5'-trihydroxyflavone in S. pubescens [12], and it is settled that flavonoids, phenolics, and polyphenols have announced for their superb antioxidant potentials and various pharmacological properties including anti-inflammation activity [13][14][15][16]. Further, the therapeutic exploration revealed gastroprotective, antidiabetic, hepatoprotective, anti-ulcerogenic, antidiarrheal, antianxiety, anti-depressants, myorelaxant, antitumor and antibacterial activities [17], while the effects of S. pubescens on inflammation remain to be elucidated.…”

Biochemical Constituents and In Vitro Antioxidant Potential of Fermented Wheat Grains Using <em>Bacillus subtilis</em>

“…It was determined by the method reported by Adhikari (Adhikari et al 2018). Fermented wheat grains extract was added into an equal proportion of deionized water and then thirty-five microliters of 5% sodium nitrate (NaNO3) solution was added and allowed to react for five minutes at o C followed by the addition of seventy microliters of 10% aluminium chloride (AlCl3).…”

Effects of Repeated Administration of Extracts from Arachis hypogaea Hulls on Blood Parameters and Histological Organization of Heart, Liver and Kidneys of Rats

“…Yu et al [13] have isolated from hulls luteolin, carotene, isosaponaretine. Polyphenols give peanut shells many therapeutic properties due to their strong antioxidant capacities [14]. However, the presence of other metabolites, particularly alkaloids, in addition to probable pharmacological activities, indicates a toxicological risk.…”
