Alternanthera sessilis (red) (ASR) is an edible herbal plant with many beneficial health effects. This study aimed to investigate the antioxidant components and antioxidant activities of the edible leaves and stems of ASR extracted using solvent of varying polarities namely water, ethanol, ethyl
The species Alternanthera brasiliana (L.) Kuntze (Amaranthaceae) is a perennial herbaceous plant widely distributed in Brazil's eastern beaches and certain Amazonian regions. Crude ethanolic (70%) extract, fractions (dichloromethane, ethyl acetate and n-butanolic) and the mixture isolated were
The objective of this study was to evaluate the interest of regular consumption of an antioxidant-containing herb tea in the care of HIV-patients. We conducted a 24 month prospective study in 30 patients clinically asymptomatic, infected by the VIH1, with a rate of CD4 above 200/mm3, and naive of
Alternanthera philoxeroides (Mart.) is a tropical weed commonly known as alligator weed. It grows rapidly within a small span of time and easily available all over the world. The objective of this work was to isolate and characterise the major phenolic components present in the methanol-soluble
The antioxidant and antiglucotoxic effects of Alternanthera paronychioides on pancreatic β-cell were investigated. Antioxidant assays demonstrated that ethanol extracts of A. paronychioides (EEAP) exhibited the highest antioxidant activity, which also had the highest phenolic and flavonoid contents.
Five alkaloids, in addition to hydroxytyrosol and uridine, were isolated from aerial parts of Alternanthera littoralis P. Beauv. Among the isolated compounds, alternamide A was an unusual tricyclic alkaloid with a bridged benzoazepine core. All isolated alkaloids have a catechol moiety, indicating a
The present work focuses the use of the aqueous extract of Alternanthera sessilis Linn. (Amaranthaceae) in producing silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) from silver nitrate aqueous. Phytochemical analysis of the extract revealed the presence of alkaloid, tannins, ascorbic acid, carbohydrates and proteins
Fast recovery after de-submergence requires efficient protection against oxidative injuries. We investigated whether de-submergence responses of antioxidant systems differ in two wetland plants, Alternanthera philoxeroides and Hemarthria altissima, characterized by 'escape' and 'quiescence'
OBJECTIVE
To evaluate hydrophilic extracts from edible portions of fifteen plants for total phenolic content (TPC) and anti-oxidant capacity (AC) as an effort to find possible sources for future novel antioxidants.
METHODS
Folin-Ciocalteau and DPPH radical scavenging assays were employed to
BACKGROUND
Alternanthera sessilis is a medicinal herb which is consumed as vegetable and used as traditional remedies of various ailments in Asia and Africa.
OBJECTIVE
This study aimed to investigate the antiglucosidase and antioxidant activity of solvent fractions of A. sessilis leaf and
Alternanthera brasiliana (L.) Kuntze (Amaranthaceae) is a herbaceous plant used against inflammation, cough, and diarrhea in Brazilian popular medicine. In our preliminary study, promising wound healing activity of methanol extract of leaves of A. brasiliana (MEAB) was observed in normal excision
OBJECTIVE
The main objective of the present study was to explore the antitumor activity of the ethyl acetate extract of the Alternanthera brasiliana (EAAB) and its antioxidant status against Ehrlich ascites carcinoma (EAC) in Swiss albino mice.
METHODS
Based on the preliminary in vitro cytotoxicity
Phytochemical analysis of the antioxidant ethanolic extract of Alternanthera tenella Colla led to the isolation of six flavonoids, acacetin 8-C-[alpha-L-rhamnopyranosyl-(1 --> 2)-beta-D-glucopyranoside] (1), 2"-O-alpha-L-rhamnopyranosyl-vitexin (2), 2"-O-beta-D-glucopyranosyl-vitexin (3), vitexin
Eight selected wild vegetables from Nepal (Alternanthera sessilis, Basella alba, Cassia tora, Digera muricata, Ipomoea aquatica, Leucas cephalotes, Portulaca oleracea and Solanum nigrum) were investigated for their antioxidative potential using
A hydroponic experiment was conducted to study the subcellular distribution of Cd and mineral elements in Alternanthera philoxeroides leaves and the leaves anti-oxidative capacity and chlorophyll, soluble protein, and phytochelatins (PCs) contents under the stress of different concentration (0,
