A bioguided separation of Lepechinia graveolens (Reg.) Epling. (Lamiaceae) for antioxidant activity was carried out. The ethyl acetate fraction (EAF) from the methanolic extract was chromatographed on Sephadex LH-20 affording five active fractions. The radical scavenging activity of each fraction,
BACKGROUND
The replacement of some synthetic food antioxidants by safe natural antioxidants has fostered research on the screening of raw materials to find new vegetable sources of antioxidants. In this study the antioxidant activity of eight wild-growing Colombian plants was assessed by four
To contribute enzymatic browning inhibitors to the food industry and also extend knowledge about the phytochemical profile of the anti-tyrosinase plant Lepechinia meyenii, its ethanol extract was subjected to bioguided fractionation. Three hydroxycinnamic acids, p-coumaric acid (1), caffeic acid (2)
