Total Phenols, Flavonoid Contents, and Antioxidant Activity of Spirodela polyrhiza Extracts

Abstract: We investigated the antioxidant activities of water and ethanol extracts from Spirodela polyrhiza (SP) through in vitro assays. The total phenolic contents of SP water and ethanol extracts were 52.75-293.4 and 60.12-398.4 mg/g, respectively. The total flavonoid content of SP ethanol extract (38.25-159.4 mg/g) was higher than that of SP water extract (38.25-67.75 mg/g). The water and ethanol extracts from SP scavenged the 1,1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) radical and 2,2'-azino-di-2-ethyl-benzothia-zoline su… Show more

“…28 Duckweeds can have high levels of avonoids and together with its nutritional value of amino acids and proteins make it suitable for human consumption with health benets. [29][30][31][32][33][34] Duckweeds have been sources of human food in several Asian countries. 35 Moreover, one duckweed species (Spirodela polyrhiza) is being used to treat urticaria, acute nephritis, inuenza, and inammation in Japan, Korea, and China.…”

“…The redness (a*) of PBM in our current study was highest in the SPI group and no difference was found among the other treatment groups. Furthermore, the lower color and saturation indices in the treated group can be attributed to chlorophyll pigments as SPI and DW are chlorophyll-rich ( 53 – 55 ). However, the degree of redness of the SPI and DW depends on the types of extraction or processing.…”
