Scavenging and metal chelating potential of Carthamus tinctorius L. extracts

Abstract: Carthamus tinctorius leaves were extracted with methanol and distilled water. The extracts were evaluated for their potential free radical scavenging capacity using four different in vitro methods (DPPH, metal chelation, radical removal and hydrogen peroxide scavenging methods). The total phenolic content obtained for aqueous (112. 2±1.708 GAE mg/g) and for methanolic extract (89.66±2.00 GAE mg/g). In DPPH, IC50 values was found to be 176.66±2.08 and 278.33±1.52 and 310.33±1.52 for the ascorbic acid, aqueous a… Show more

“…A wide range of scavenging enzymes such as glutathione, NADH, NADPH, superoxide dismutase and catalase reacts with free radicals and protect the body against noxious oxidative stress, cellular and molecular damage (1). Disintegration of free radicals and scavengers balance may trigger various diseases such as neurodegenerative disease, Parkinson's, mongolism, cancer and the aging process (2,3). Antioxidant inhibits the initiation of oxidative chain reactions, which prevents the oxidation of lipids or other molecules by different mechanisms like free radicalscavenging, potential complexity of pro-oxidant metals and by single oxygen quenching (4).…”

“…Owing to the high reactivity of hydrogen peroxide with metal ions, eg copper and iron, hydroxyl radicals are generated. 33 The highest percentage hydrogen peroxide scavenging activity at 20 ppm was obtained in ascorbic acid (52.82 ±1.25), and the highest values at 40, 60, 80, and 100 ppm 3.…”

“…Although transition metals besides Fe +2 , e.g. Zn +2 , Cu +2 , and Mn +2 , could be complexed by compounds which have metal-chelating properties [41], the quantities of metal ions and phenolic compounds, and the differences in solubility of several foods and beverage sources of minerals could affect differently the complexation with transition metals [40,42,43]. Afsana and coauthors [42] showed an effect of ingesting tannic acid on the decrease of iron absorption, but not on the absorption of zinc, copper, and manganese.…”
