DPPH Free Radical Scavenger Components from the Fruits of Alpinia rafflesiana Wall. ex. Bak. (Zingiberaceae)

Abstract: The methanol extract of the dried ripe fruits of Alpinia rafflesiana was investigated for its DPPH free radical scavenger constituents. 2Ј,3Ј,4Ј,6Ј-Tetrahydroxychalcone (7), which has never been isolated from natural sources was found to be most active as a DPPH free radical scavenger with the IC 50 value of 55 µm. Other known compounds isolated from this species include 5,6-dehydrokawain (1), flavokawin B (2), 1,7-diphenyl-5-hydroxy-6-hepten-3-one (3), (Ð)-pinocembrin (4), cardamonin (5) and (Ð)-pinostrobin (… Show more

“…1,1-Diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl radical (DPPH) activity Radical scavenging activity using >1,1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl radical (DPPH) was carried out according to protocols described by Mohamad et al (2004). 100 l of substock solution (in MeOH) of the extracts at concentrations 250, 125, and 62.5 g/ml were added into 96-well microplates.5 l of DPPH reagent (5 mg of DPPH in 2 ml of MeOH) was then added into each well and the solution was kept in the dark for 30 min.…”

“…A importância que se tem dado aos tocotrienóis deve-se às suas atividades biológicas. Há estudos que sugerem a inibição do crescimento de células cancerígenas em glândulas mamárias e redução do risco de doenças cardíacas por essas moléculas, que podem também prevenir outras patologias que se originam de estresse oxidativo (Nakagawa et al, 2007;Shibata et al, 2008).…”

“…A fase móvel constituiu-se de hexano:acetato de etila:ácido fórmico (85:20:3). Uma solução alcoólica de DPPH (2,2-difenil-1-picril-hidrazila) 0,2% foi utilizada para revelação somente em uma pequena faixa de uma das extremidades da placa, permitindo a visualização da região onde se encontrava a substância antioxidante (Mohamad et al, 2004). Removeu-se a sílica dessa região e para separá-la do composto, o resíduo foi solubilizado em clorofórmio e filtrado em funil sinterizado G3.…”

“…For example, prior to the report by Abdul Malek et al [43], Alpinia mutica was previously reported to have inhibitory activity towards lipid oxidation [50] and anti-bacterial effects against Bacillus subtilis and methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) [50] in addition to anti-platelet aggregation activities [51].…”
