This work examined the variation in chemical and biological properties of Moringa oleifera Lam. shoot (MOS) teas prepared under different degrees of fermentation, viz: non‐fermented, semi‐fermented and fermented. The chemical composition was ascertained via FTIR, GC‐MS, total phenolic and total flavonoid content. Also determined were the biological properties, including antioxidant, antimicrobial and alpha‐amylase inhibitory activities. The data confirmed that MOS teas were rich in phenolic and flavonoid compounds, with fermented MOS tea displaying the highest phenolic and flavonoid contents. With respect to antioxidant property, all tea extracts exhibited good radical scavenging activities against DPPH˙, ABTS˙+ and NO˙, and the radical scavenging capacity was in the order of non‐fermented > semi‐fermented > fermented MOS teas. The same trend was also observed for the antimicrobial activities against Staphylococcus aureus and Staphylococcus epidermidis. In contrast, the fermented MOS tea exhibited better α‐amylase inhibitory activity compared to the non‐fermented and semi‐fermented MOS teas.

En este estudio se determinaron propiedades antioxidantes y contenido de fenoles totales de extractos de orégano (Lippia graveolens), eucalipto (Eucalyptus cinerea) y chile jalapeño (Capsicum annuum cv.). Para ello, el contenido de fenoles totales se determinó mediante la técnica de Folin Ciocalteu y actividad antioxidante por el método de DPPH (1,1-difenil-2-picrilhidrazil) a las horas 1, 2 y 3 correspondientes a la duración del proceso de extracción. Los resultados obtenidos indicaron que la mayor cantidad de compuestos fenólicos fue presentada por el orégano a la hora 3 (23.465±0.143 mg AG/ g MS), con respecto a los demás extractos vegetales. Mientras que para la actividad antioxidante el eucalipto presento el mayor porcentaje de inhibición (80.34 %), frente a la captación de radicales libres de DPPH, reflejando de esta manera su alta actividad antioxidante. De los resultados anteriores, se puede concluir que el extracto de eucalipto fue el que tuvo mayor potencial nutracéutico, sin embargo, tanto extracto de chile como de orégano presentaron buenas propiedades antioxidantes y en consecuencia podrían tener buenas propiedades nutraceúticas, las cuales podrían aprovecharse para futuras aplicaciones en áreas como tecnología de alimentos, farmacéutica, industria cosmética, agrícola, entre otros.

Moringa oleifera has been reported to be the store-house of wide range of bioactive compounds. Most commonly used plant part has been the leaves which are reported to be rich in Vitamins, Carotenoids, Polyphenols, Phenolic Acids, Flavonoids Alkaloids, Glucosinolates, Isocyanides, Tannins and Saponins. Moringa leaves are used as Keerai while, green pods are commonly used as vegetable in the traditional preparation of Sambar in South-India. MO is gaining popularity because of its nutrient-rich root, leaves, flowers and fruits, having immense traditional medicinal uses and proved pharmacological properties. Not much of work has been carried out on analysis of bioactive compounds present in the pods. In the present study an attempt has been made to screen and analyze the range of bioactive compounds present in Moringa oleifera seed removed ripened natural dried pods. Phytochemical screening and GCMS analysis revealed the presence of 12 compounds namely - 7-Octadecyne, 2-methyl- (C19H36); 3,7,11,15-Tetramethyl-2-hexadecen-1-ol (C20H40O); 3,7,11,15-Tetramethyl-2-hexadecen-1-ol (C20H40O); 6,9,12,15-Docosatetraenoic acid, me (C23H38O2); Cyclohexanol, 5-methyl-2-(1-methylethyl)- (C10H20O); 3,7,11,15-Tetramethyl-2-hexadecen-1-ol (C20H40O); Palmitic acid vinyl ester (C18H34O2); .gamma.-Tocopherol (C28H48O2); Vitamin E (C29H50O2); Cholesta-7,9(11)-dien-3-ol, 4,4-dim (C29H48O); gamma.-Sitosterol (C29H50O); Stigmasta-5,24(28)-dien-3-ol, (3.beta.,24Z)- (C29H48O). Further, in-silico ADMET analysis is expected to provide in-death physiochemical and biomolecular details of these molecules in order to exploit them for production of novel drugs for the pharma market with wide array of bio medical applications.
