“…Conversely, Nyambe‐Silavwe et al. () used a concentration interval closer to that of the present study (5 to 70 μM compared with 1 to 7.5 μM). It seems therefore that the inhibition profile of these alpha‐amylases by flavanols rather depends on the experimental conditions, especially the concentration of the inhibitor and the degree of purity of the enzyme.…”

“…Lastly, it is worth mentioning that the HSA catalyzed hydrolysis of amylopectin—the main constituent of most starches—is inhibited by EGCG, acarbose, quercetin, luteolin, and green tea with a IC 50 comprised between 10 μM (acarbose) and 83 μM (quercetin). Similarly, with the HSA/amylose couple, IC 50 is comprised between 3.5 μM (acarbose) and 26.3 μM (luteolin) (Nyambe‐Silavwe et al., ). Thus, overall, these five HSA inhibitors are 3‐ to 10‐fold more effective on the amylose hydrolysis than on the amylopectin hydrolysis.…”

Many studies have shown that flavan‐3‐ols inhibit mammalian alpha‐amylases but the published IC50 and Ki values vary up to a thousand times. We therefore tested the effects of 6 pure flavan‐3‐ols—abundant in green tea—on the activity of pure porcine pancreatic alpha‐amylase (PPA) under steady‐state kinetic conditions. We used both amylose and maltopentaose as substrates, along with spectrophotometry and chromatography as analytical tools, respectively. A Docking approach was also used to probe the interaction between PPA and each flavan‐3‐ol. The results showed that the 6 flavan‐3‐ols inhibit amylose hydrolysis with Ki comprised between 7 and 34 μM, according to a mixed inhibition profile for gallocatechin gallate, and a competitive inhibition profile for the 5 other flavanols. Only the galloyl‐containing flavan‐3‐ols inhibited the maltopentaose hydrolysis with a Ki of about 30 μM according to a noncompetitive profile. We conclude that dietary flavan‐3‐ols could inhibit starch digestion nonnegligibly. The results of the docking trials were concordant with the kinetic data and have noticeably revealed that the cis‐flavan‐3‐ols epigallocatechin gallate and epicatechin gallate bind similarly to PPA, involving π‐stacking with Trp59.

Four complexes of Cr(III) were synthesized with Schiff bases ligands derived from isonicotinyl hydrazide with benzaldehyde/ p-chlorobenzaldehyde. The ligands and complexes were characterized by elemental analysis, molar conductance, magnetic moment, FT-IR, 1 H NMR, 13 C{ 1 H} NMR and electronic spectroscopy. The molecular structure and different quantum chemical parameters such as dipole moment and polarizability, were calculated using the B3LYP basis set density functional theory (DFT) with the standard 6-311+G(d, 2p) level. The calculated HOMO and LUMO energies show that charge transfer occurs within the molecules. Ligands and complexes were screened for in vitro anti-diabetic and antibacterial activity. Anticorrosion activity of complexes was also studied by weight loss method.
